Exeter Mohawks will tackle Strathroy Royals starting Friday, August 13, in a best-of-seven for the “B” honors. Zurich Lumber Kings and Dashwood Tigers will square in a seven-game “D” competition. The two Clinton teams, Colts and RCAF, play a best-of-five semi-final to decide who’ll tackle Mitchell for the "C” title. Mohawks will be favored to take the “B” set despite an un­ favorable record. Although the two teams will end up within two points of each other in the sched­ ule, Strathroy has defeated the Mohawks in the two meetings of the clubs this year. Evans Wins Two George Evans, veteran Strath­ roy hurler, tamed the tribe in both losses but the locals played two of their worst games of season against the Royals, addition, the Strathroy club never faced Steve Mitro, hawks top hurler.

You get to know a good car from a lemon because, if you think about it a minute, you’ll see that we have to BUY cars as well as sell them. So we have to know what a good car is. And while we’re about it, we pick up a lot of interesting stories we think are worth passing along. It’s our shop talk . . . just like the talk of the railway men who remember the record set way back by Old No. 580, or sailors who remember the Big Storm, or army buddies who remember the Big War which is, of course, the one they fought in. I hope you’ll enjoy stopping at this spot every week and I hope 1 can pass along sonic shop talk that’ll be useful. I’m not going to get complicated or tcclmical; there are too many people today trying to bamboozle others with big words and fancy plu'ases. All the fancy adornment hasn’t been able to change some things. Like honest trade, a dollar paid for a dollar’s value. Whatever you m&y think about the dollar today, it won’t buy more sound motoring than at our used car lot. As I said be­ fore, we have to buy cars as well as sell them and before we take h car in we make sure it’s a sound, tight, clean car. We make doubly sure after we have it, and then we offer it on our lot. See you next week, when I want to tell you about the last model in Canada of one of the most amazing cars ever made. 3 New Goods Received This Week O-GO Banishes garbage can odors and germs.
