JUVENILES SHOW FORM TO
_ TRIM WINGHAM BATTERY
Lucknow Juveniles were in top
form on Friday night and pro
vided a crowd-pleasing game for
local fans, as they took a’5-3
decision from the Wingham Bat
tery, intermediate team, Which
includes some ball-wise boys
from the neighboring,town.
• The Lucknow ? kids played
three-error ball behind the steady
pitching of Kent Hedley, to earn
' the will, and give Manager Gar-
. net Henderson something to en-
| thuse about.

11-5 DECISION OVER LOCALS
Lucknow Legion’s Intermediate
softball team dropped an 11-5 de
cision to the Clinton RCAF team*
last Thursday night on the Fliers
home field. ’ ►.
The front office of the WOAA
figured in the Lucknow loss.
From “headquarters” came word
that Grant Chisholm was the
property of the tail-end Goderich
fastball squad, and as a result
George Westlake was pressed in-
to service . on the mound. George
had some trouble with his con
trol, and while he whacked out
three hits, one a towering home
run to aid his mates outhit the
Airmen, it was all for a lost
cause. The Radar squad trotted
out no less than throee pretty, good
pitchers 'and still had another in
reserve. ’ - .
Frank Eedy caught for Luck
now, but it doesn’t look as if he
can be talked into performing for.

GAMES FOR JUVENILES
Lucknow Juveniles are group
ed’ in an 8-tearil group that is
comprised of six intermediate
teams and two juvenile. For
“one reason Or another” the dic
tate >. has come from the “powers
that be”, that the Juvenile games are^tO1^^Tt^nt^s004p^nlT-4^^-,"
From the local standpoint, at
least, this is ridiculous. It means
that these games will finish well
after eleven, o’clock, and neither
fans nor players like it. But worst
of jail, many of the Juvenniles’
followers are in the youngster
bracket/ and its going to mean
that many of these kids are. go
ing to be: deprived of, taking in
the games, Or Mom or Pop are
going to ‘blow a fuse” freqently
as the kids get home as the mid
night hour approaches. The local
management shouldn’t take this
dictate lying down, It would be
more Sensible to have the Juv
enile games start; at 8.00 o’clock.

When Lucknow Legion spon
sors forsook the fastball loop in
preference for a fling at amateur
■softball, again, they assumed that
their troubles were ov^r. It look
ed that way, until frond W.O.A.A.
headquarters came another of
those upsetting dictates. *
Grant Chisholm who was being
given his release by Port Albert,
was given the O.K. to hurl for
Lucknow, and he had one game
and a victory to his credit. ,
The trouble pot boiled over in
Goderich arid Cotton ~ pulled'
stakes, ■and with his departure
Goderich started angling for
Chisholm and W.O.A.A. Manager
Tory Gregg informed all and"
sundry that Grant must play for
the Lakeside town.
Even with Cotton’s departure,
all does not seem weir with the
Goderich cellar-dwellers, and it
looks as if through all. the goings-
on, that Grant iss well out on that
proverbial limib.
If Goderich is going anywhere
they will have to import a top
flight hurler' and Grant will
warm the bench. It they don’t
there doesn’t look like a snow
ball’s chance, of Goderich making
the playoffs, eyen;, if they stumble
through the schedule to save that
$500 guarantee. Mayibe their first
loss would be one to take without
getting in any deeper;
“'Grant;“however“could"have“had
a good summer with the Lucknow
squad, which looked like a re^l
contender with Chisholm on the
loster.' '■ ■
And, if memory serves us right,
Grant , wanted to play with God
erich a year ago. At that time the
W.O.A.A. said “no” and he had
to play with Port Albert. .
dou'ble .-ring ceremony- . .
Following the ceremony a wed-
ding 'dinner was served at the
oride’s home to a hundred guests. .. ■
The bride’s mother wore a nylon
pale -blue jace^over taffeta .gown
with a t pink carnation corsage,
while the Ibridegrooiri’s mother
chose a mauve nylon with White
carnation corsage. .
- For a trip to different parts of
the States the bride 'wore a blue

They will reside in Riversdale.
