Tough Corunna pitching
slumps Colt buffers
BY BERT CLIFFORD
. For the first time this season
the Clinton Colts hitting eyes
were stumped in Ontario
Baseball. Association
Intermediate play.
Bill Leitch of Corunna held
the Colts to three singles and
allowed only six baserunners
Sunday as Corunna blanked
Clinton 3-0.
Ed Daer and Don Bartliff
were the only two Clinton
players who reached second
base. Daer was left stranded in
the fifth and Bartliff was thrown
out at third base on Daer's
Fielder's choice in the eighth.
Archie Pickett picked up a
single ,in the first, Daer had a
single in the. fifth and tartliff
beat out a bunt in the: eighth.
Leitch struck out 40 batters,
walked only one and had superb
control all afternoon.
BY BERT CLIFFORD
One bad inning for the
Clinton Ponies in the fifth killed
their, chances of pulling off a big
upset against Kingsville.
Up to the fifth, Kingsville bad
only a 2-1 lead as Pat Phillips
and Mark Nicholson were able to
hold the visitors.
The previous game between
the two clubs had ended 30-0
for Kingsville but the second
game was much closer, ending
10.5. After , the seven-run inning,
the Ponies rebounded with four
'runs in the bottom of the inning.
Kingsville nushed one more run
across in the sixth to finish the
scoring. Both clubs played
heads ;up ball. The Kingsville
pitcher was especially good and
it took four innings for the local
boys to adjust to his speed.

WOAA protest
A protest lodged by the
Brucefield Bombers to the

series, has been won,
Brucefield protested a • 16-15
loss at the hands of Shakespeare
list week at CFB • Clinton when
'..the Shakeipeare girls used an
'aluminum bat.
The acceptance of the protest
washes out the result of the
game and leaves the 13rucefield
team with a 3-0 lead in the
series.
The girls won their third
game on Thursday in
Shakespeare by a 3.1 count.
Sandra Graham scored the
first run in the second inning
when she was knocked home by

There may be danger in the
pool of darkness that lies behind
the headlights of an oncoming
car, says the Ontario Safety
League. The prospect of greatly
improved night vision for drivers•
is provided by Autosensa, a
spotlight that was demonstrated
this year at the Automotive
Engineering Congress, Detroit,
The power beam is self-aiming in
relation to oncoming headlights,
and an automatic shutter cuts
off that part of the beam that
would otherwise dazzle the
approaching driver. The
-remainder of the beam shines
past the opposing vehicle, more
than doubling the seeing
distance. This spotlight, in
development by Lucas in
England, has already been tested
in actual road conditions.

It's almost inevitable that
your car is going to get a few
"scrapes" when it is constantly
threatened with scratches from
passing bumpers, nicks from
flying gravel, or gouges from
another car door in a crowded
parking lot. With some quick
attention, . your car's painted
finish can be easily repaired,
preventing corrosion and
devaluation of this costly
investment.
A car's metal is safe as long as
it is protected by one of today's
excellent automotive finishes.
Once bare metal is exposed, rust
begins almost immediately. If
allowed to continue, it spreads
under the painted areas around
the scratch causing the paint to
flake away. More metal is then
exposed, and the corrosion cyfy
continues." r
painting is an easy,
effective way to stop corrosion,
and special paint to match the
color and chemical formula of
your car's present finish is
available from your car dealer or
automotive shop.
Proper preparation is
important. New paint adheres
much better to metal or old
paint if the surface is lightly
sanded. Make sure rough edges
around nicks are sanded smooth
and all loose paint is removed.
Remember, new paint will not
adhere to a dirty or greasy
surface, so wash thoroughly and
use the proper cleaning agents to
remove road tar, grease or oil,
Before painting, it is wise to put
your car in a garage or protected
place where there is very little
dust. Dust can ruin new paint. -
Bare metal should be given a
light coat of metal primer before
you apply the top coat. Check
with your dealer for the correct
primer to use. Let the primer
dry overnight, and sand lightly
beforeyou apply the top coat.
Touch-up paint with a small
brush applicator should be used
for small nicks and scratches.
Spray cans of touch-up paint are
also available for larger damaged
areas. Don% try to paint a large
area such as a deck or door. This
type of work requires the skill of
a professional car painter. When
using 'a spray applicator, it is
easy to spray too much or cover
a "larger area than you intended
to ,eover,' O'practree ahead of
tfine. Mask' areas yiSIC do riot)
want to paint, with newspapers
and. masking tape.
When applying top coat
enamel, remember that several
thin coats are better than one
heavy Oat. Sand lightly between
each coat. The paint should be
completely dry before sanding
and recoating. After the enamel
has dried for several days, it can
be polished with a buffing
compound to make it blend with
the original finish.
By taking over easy and
inexpensive , touch-up painting
on your . car, you can save
yourself many repair bills and
own a car you're proud to drive!
Apartment House Fishing
Whenever a tree falls into a
lake or stream, it becomes a
giant, luxury apartment house.
The first occupants to move
in are minnows
and small fish
seeking shade
and shelter.
Close behind
will be crayfish,
hellgrammites,
caddis nymphs,
frogs, worms
and many other
forms of aqua-Red Fisher tic life.
This abundance of natural
food soon attracts some
keeper-size fish and several of
these will probably make the
fallen tree their home.
Sharp-eyed anglers take ad-
vantage of logs and stumps in
the water, says Red Fisher, the
fishing authority at Mercury
outboards, and their fishing
success improves when they
learn how to use these under-
water housing developments
for fiph.,
'tirgemouth•bass" like"t6 lia
under a log just whets it en-
ters the water and catch small
frogs as they leave the water
to sun themselves. A bass bug
-or top water plug-cast so
that it glances off the log will
often tempt a bass into think-
ing it's his next meal.
The position of the sun
makes a difference as to which
side you should aim, your cast.
Most fish like the shade, there-
fore it's best to drop the first
'cast on the shady side of a log
or stump,
During the hours when, the
sun is alinost directly over-
head, fish move into deeper
water along the log. When this
happens it's time to change to
a spinning rig and work the•
deep water at the end of the
log.
An unidentified Corunna player• dives back into first base as Hans Leppington reaches for a
pick-off throw from Clinton pitcher Ed Daer in OBA Intermediate play Monday at Community
Park. Corunna,shut-out the locals 3-0, -staff photo. Bad fifth inning prevents
upset by Ponies
Greg Butler climaxed, the
' four-run inning in the fifth with
a three-run, inside-the-park
homerun. Scoring for Clinton
were Greg Butler with two runs,
Steve Cook, Robin McAdam and
Mark Nicholson. At the
conclusion of the game team
.. members presented team
manager Rick Kush with a gift
for his work in the last two
years, Rick moved to Grimsby
over the weekend.
