IN SCORELESS TIE Batters Do Wand-Drill; 29 Strikeouts The Feeble Hurons formerly known as the Wingham. Baseball Club, jour neyed to Southampton last Wednes day for the alleged purpose of playing a ball game. The net result was a scoreless tie and the only reason the Tribe didn’t lose another game was the fact that the Fishermen were just as impotent with the willow as they (The Hurons) were. A grand total of seven (7) hits punctured the quiet air of a beautiful July day on the shores of Lake Huron, the Nation’s Playground (ad.). Only a small crowd was on hand to see the game which didn’t get start ed till after 6 p.m. As a result, only nine innings were played, darkness preventing any overtime play. Per haps it was just as well as the way they were going it would probably be St. Swither’s Day before either club could more than cast a shadow on home-plate. Bob Bridgeford and Ken Goar were the opposing moundsmen and they and the catchers were the only guys .to the field to even work up a sweat. Bob fanned sixteen and allowed four hits and five walks for his chore, while Goar, usually no puz zle to the Tribe, struck out no less . than thirteen and only allowed three hits and a walk. It was pretty pitiful to say the least. Each club managed to get runners as far as third on two occasions, but the effort proved too exhaustive and the athletes were forced to languish there, Garvie, first South, batter drew a walk and went all the way to third on a sacrifice but stayed there when McKay filed to Somers and Brannick struck out, The last mentioned also got as far as third in the fourth but was expunged on an attempted Squeeze play which didn’t quite mat erialize. With two out in the third James lined a hit to centre and took second when Brown let the ball hop past him. Somers scratched a single over sec ond but James over-ran third and was trapped. In the sixth James drew a walk after Bridgeford had popped.and took third when SornefS doubled to left-centre. Neither Niergarth nor Mellor cetild help any, both fanning. Of such stuff was the game made and E> 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 E. 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 3 E. 0 3 Bridgeford & Groves; Goar & McKay Two base hits, Rourke, Somers; sac rifice hit, Piper; stolen base, Brann ick; left on bases, Wingham 5, South ampton 6; struck out, by Bridgeford 16, by Goar 13; bases on balls, off Bridgeford 5, off Goar 1.

COUNTY GATHERING LARGELY ATTENDED (Continued from Page One) of Europe who, after trampling the lives, property and freedom of their neighbours under foot, now seek to de stroy the British Commonwealth of Nations. We are proud to be the old est child and heir in this galaxy of na tions which compose the common wealth and we are determined to Jive up to our responsibility and privilege in this critical hour of her history. We believe a supreme testing time has arrived in the lives of the Anglo- Saxon people, a crisis through which we must emerge victorious or surrend er for a thousand years the basic de mocratic principles of self-govern ment, freedom and justice for which our forefathers fought, struggled and died in hard-fought battle, to hand on to use the priceless heirtage of noble ideals and pirnciples which have rend ered our race superior to any other on the face of the globe, for on this im perishable foundation alone can na tional permanency be built. It will require all the courage, ten acity, inventiveness and skill of which we are possessed to bring victory over a ruthless foe who does, noit hesitate to burn, pillage, and destroy defenceless homes and towns, or to shoot, starve or murder helpless women and child ren whose only crime is that they are not of German blood. Our former Ally, France, is reduced to virtual slavery. We read with cold chills the news that seventeen thous and French people have been arrested by the Gestapo for daring to oppose the German advance. These will be whisked away to internment camps and never to be heard of again. What torture they may endure, what devil ish insults and brutality only a Nazi mind can conceive. We hope our ef forts will bring to the French people indcpendce onec more. Wc fight for the destruction of Nazism and Facism. Our victory will be such as to create a new order in Europe which will establish perman ent peace, prosperity and progress for all the races of mankind to -render it impossible for any unscripulous mon ster to arise from the gutter and threaten with extinction the highest form of civilization so far developed among men. We recommend with heartfelt sin cerity and gratefulness the efforts al ready taken by our government at Ot tawa, ito support with all the resourc es of our nation in men and material the gigantic efforts of our British compeers, and we especially approve the excellent manner by which they have endeavoured to finance this work, we pledge our whole-hearted support in this great crusade to des troy the curse of dictatorship which; supported by ruthless warfare, threat ens the freedom of the British people as well as oitr own and every other liberty-loving people wheresoever sit uated. We urge our government in all its departments to put aside any vestige of petty politics, to exert still greater efforts to create supplies of planes, tanks, guns and munitions at a faster rate than ever before, that Canadian industry be fully mobilized for this purpose, knowing that we have Unlim ited power both in men And in indust rial plants so necessary for the ready manufacture of all the engines of modern warfare. We urge also a campaign for the consetvation of waste knowing that es RADIO SERVICE MAN Though the works of a radio mystify most people they are; an open book to the Radip Service Man.

We particularly need the preservation of food supplies by can ning fruits and vegetables this sum mer and autumn as well as maintain ing large stocks of meat and wheat for home consumption and for over seas shipment. We view with satisfaction the move ment of British children and women to Canada because of the greater safe ty here and because of the plentiful supply of food. We are anxious to assist as individuals this splendid ser vice, our homes are open to receive them as .guests for the duration of the war. We rejoice that our fighting men, true to British tradition, have shown themselves more than a match for the enemy. Although our Allies (have been defeated by intrigue, treachery and traitors, we are still, however, more determined and piightier than ever. We hope that never again will our soldiers be called upon to fight ag ainst such fearful odds so poorly, equipped, so poorly prepared. Today we have renewed courage. We are determined to win. We can not — we must not — we dare not fail. Be it therefore resolved that this resolution be adopted and a copy thereof sent to the Warden of Huron County, to the Right Honourable W. L. Mackenzie King, Prime Minister of Canada, to the Honourable J. L. Ral ston, Minister of National Defence, and to L. E. Cardiff and W. H. Gold ing, Members of/Parliament for North and South Huron.
