The win, second straight for the tribe, boosted the locals' stock in the title race. ■Four successive singles and two walks gave Mohawks all they needed to chalk up the game­ winning lead in the opening frame. The tribe knocked young Mitchell star, Doug Aitcheson, out of the box with six big runs. Red Loader, making his debut in Exeter uniform on his home­ town diamond, started the early hitting spree with a clean single that knocked home two runs. Blows by Bill Jupp, Ted Martyne and Steve Mitro brought home four more counters. When the Legionaires threat­ ened with three runs in the sec­ ond, Mohawks added two insur­ ance markers in the third. They started to tee off for more tal­ lies in the ninth but the game was called because of darkness. More Strikeouts Steve Mitro continued his siz­ zling strikeout streak, adding an­ other 12 fans to his record. He now boasts a total of 39 strike­ outs in 22 innings. Despite Mitro’s strikeouts, Mit­ chell Legionaires displayed their famed batting strength of old. They matched Mohawks’ 11 hits, and clouted five of them for ex­ tra bases. Bob Meharg and Ted Martyne were Exeter’s best hitters. Both posted a two-for-four night. The other Mohawks all hit safely.. Bits Long Ones Although he didn’t prove much on the mound, Mitchell’s Aitche­ son performed well at the plate. Both teams were shaky in the field, committing a total of 10 errors. Mohawks will tackle Zurich Lumber Kings Friday night for their first home game. The Zur­ ich club has yet to be defeated and is a top threat for the league championship. EXETER Howe, ss ........

These clubs tangled on Tuesday night but wound up in a 3-3 deadlock. Exeter Mohawks handed the front - running Mitchell Legion­ aires their first setback of the season Monday night. The Mit­ chell crew trounced St. Marys 7-1 last week for their fourth win which gives them a big lead in points. Strathroy edged Clinton Colts Tuesday night for their first vic­ tory. The lowly Colts are the only team without a win. Rain forced the postponement of three scheduled games last week. Dashwood 3, Zurich 3 Doug O’Brien’s seventh-inning home run gave Zurich Lumber Kings a 3-3 tie with the Dash­ wood Tigers Tuesday night. The Tigers were leading 3-2 when O'Brien clouted the tieing marker off Robbie Wein. Dash­ wood led 3-0 until -the fifth when Zurich picked up two mar­ kers. Ron Hehnrich, the Zurich pitcher, limited the Dashwood squad to three hits, Zurich clout­ ed five safeties off Wein. If this game’s any indication, these two clubs will have to battle it down to the wire to declare a ”D” winner of the league. Both are top contenders foi the H-P title, too. Bob Stormes hurled his first for the Tigers, limiting St. Marys to three hits Monday night as the cats scored a 7-1 victory. Bob Hayter and Lome Klein- stiver collected three and two hits each to pace the winners’ offensive. HURON-PERTH STANDING T 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 •s a E s s 8" Block In Stock B s s E E L.H.

Gwen Simpson’s 287 and Julie Ross’ 179 knocked the pins from under the Happy Gals to give the Alley girls the series in two straight games. In the junior boys’ division, Ron Horn and his Whizz Bangs, with a one-point lead from last week, took two games in a row to capture the championship. Jim Crocker with a 171 and Ron Horn with a 152 were high roll­ ers for the winners. The R. Francois trophies will be presented this week to the winners. Congratulations to the winners and better luck next year to the losers. Minor Ball Like the inter-county league last week, many of our minor ball games were rained out but in order to stick to our schedules more closely, all postponed games will count as four-point games when these teams play again. The only game played this week saw N, Boyle’s Mohawks come from behind to beat H. MacNaughton’s Nite Hawks 11- 10. This game had everything— home tuns, sensational catches, good pitching and errors. If nil games are as exciting, I’m sute we will have all the school child­ ren as Spectators. Tuesday night a delegation from Exeter attended the sched­ ule meeting at Clinton Barry Doakes of tiie juveniles, Bob Rus­ sell of the midgets and Lloyd Cushman and Yours Truly for the bantams and poo woes. From the schedule of home and away games one can see how busy the diamonds are going to be. The minor league schedules have to be finished before Aug­ ust 8. To simplify the job of the manager of each club, it was de­ cided to have the home team supply the umpires. All evening games are to start at 6:30, and all teams have 15 minutes grace to appear on the diamonds. Playground On June 28 a program depict­ ing some of the playground activ­ ities will be presented over CFPL- TV and on Kinsmen Day, July 1, a program of fun and frolic is being prepared for the children. From all indications, three playgrounds will be supervised this summer and with the addi­ tion of swimming to round out summer of fun along with such innovations as miniature golf, square dancing, drama, puppetry, day camping, trades camp, glee club, field hockey, horseshoes, photography, etc., we expect to have a more wide and varied pro­ gram than last year and many more older boys and girls attend­ ing. Last year our attendance on the playgrounds for an elght- week period was 7,700—close to 200 children average per day. This year we are shooting for the 10,000 mark and, of course, our Kin Kids Karnival on Labour Day, September 6. Senior Citizens The final meeting for the sum­ mer of the Senior Citizens Tues­ day night was once again a huge success with well over 100 in attendance. Many local and dist­ rict artists were featured on the program. The group decided hot to have any meetings during the summer months but to. convene once again iti the fall. —Please turn to page 1 V We have the spot to do your Dad’s Day giftin’.
