OOU Ud GORRIE LOST TO CENTRAL LEAGUERS Local Lads Win by Large Margin of 13 - 2 Allen Small pitched a nice game in the Central League fixture against Gorrie at the Town Park on Monday night when Gorrie went down by a 13-2 score. Al. struck out 13 and al­ lowed only seven scattered hits and. walked only one. He pitched the en­ tire nine innings and was going just as strong at the end as at the begin­ ning. In fact, he struck out the last three men to face him. Galloway pitched eight innings for Gorrie and his ancient slants were nicked for 16 hits. He struck out nine but the local gang were never in dan­ ger after they scored three runs in the first frame. The game was a better exhibition ■ from a local standpoint than many JWentral League games played here, ''Wijd the game with Blyth here on Fri­ day should be a good one, Bill Lediet was behind the bat for the local gang and he made a very good job of it. His only slip-up was a bad throw to third. This was the first game Bill ever caught and he was right in there. Roland Anderson was on hand but in the capacity of umpire. His hand that was broken in Gorrie last week is mending nicely but is still painful. It will be some time before he is back on the job. The Gientral League Club are find­ ing themselves and will be there or thereabouts at play-off time. Sturdy had. his foot cut when John Cruik- shariks stepped on him in practice be- fore’^the-. game and played but two innings. Line-ups: Gorrie ■— G.

WAS 50 YEARS A SCHOOLSECRETARY Canadian School Journal Carried Story About Frank Henry, Kinloss Pioneer Mr. Frank Henry, Secretary-Treas­ urer of S.S. No. 10, Kinloss Town­ ship, Bruce County, tendered his re­ signation at the first meeting of the School Board in January. This drew the curtain, on almost one-half cen­ tury of service in this capacity. The first school was of log con­ struction and opened in January, 1860. Mr. Henry was one of the first schol­ ars to attend, and for 60 years has never missed an annual school meet­ ing. As a boy he came with,.his par­ ents to this section, which was then solid bush and has resided on the same farm for 80 years. He has al­ ways shown an active interest in ev­ erything that pertained to the welfare of the community, serving 15 years as Township Councillor a.nd Reeve, and 52 years as Financial Secretary of Court, Whitechurch, No. 116 C.O.F. Mr. Henry has won the respect of all in the surrounding country by his honest, straightforward and business­ like character. He is the type of man that makes a country truly great. He is still hale and active, and moves about with the agility of a man in his early "forties”. ,It is the wish of all that he and" his wife, who last year celebrated’ their golden wedding an­ niversary, may be blessed with many more years of happiness together.
