The cats scored three big wins this past week to jump within one point of the league-leaders. Percentage-wise, only 13 points separate the two. Mitchell has 11 wins, one loss to Exeter and one tie with Clin­ ton RCAF. Dashwood has won 10 games, and lost to Exeter and Mitchell. The two ably battle the end of and - home teams may ship. Exeter Mohawks booted away their chances to remain in the running by losing to both Mit­ chell and Dashwood during the past week. Mohawks still have a mathe­ matical chance to overtake the leaders but it’s very slim. Never­ theless Mohawks could be the team that decides who wins the Huron-Perth title because the Ex­ eter crew has been the only team powerful enough to defeat, both Mitchell and Dashwood. The tribe may still upset the leaders. Zurich Lumber Kings moved into third spot with a 5-3 win over Clinton Radio last week. Clinton Colts moved up to tie St. Marys in the cellar by defeating the stone town crew 8-0. The Satchel Paige of the Huron- Perth, Gord Stock, pitched the Colt win. The Tigers' three wins were over Clinton Colts 18-6, Exeter Mohawks 5-1 and Strathroy Roy­ als 4-3. Bob Stormes pitched and batted Dashwood to the win over Royals. Stormes and Brown pa-ced the Tigers to the Clinton victory. Bantams Defeat Wingham Team Exeter Bantgms defeated Wingham 8-7 Tuesday night in a W.O.A.A. minor league game at the local diamond. Jim Hennessey scored the tie- breaking run after receiving a walk. He stole two bases and came home on a passed ball, Simon Nagle and Doug Sillery paced the winners with three and two hits respectively. Elmer Ince was the winning pitcher. The team now has a record of one win, one tie and two losses.

The Mohawks ace let a man on with a walk and allowed a double which put men on second and third with two out. Joe Walther, who came in to pinch hit for Ed Dolmage, hit a lazy grounder to Mohawk manager Red Loader at second. Loader picked it up clean —and threw it ten feet over Ted Martyn’s head at first base. Wal­ ther scored the third run of the inning on Line Rohfritsch’s sin­ gle.
