■Fishermen here Saturday and the
Hurons finally won a ball game by
the convincing fashion of an 8-1 score.
The Indians looked the best they have
shown for some weeks, to the satis
faction of a good-sized crowd. The
club played something like they used
to . .when,, errorless games were not
something somebody had read about.
*’A.s aTriatter’of fact, the Tribe 'had
little chance to make errors with
’Bridgeford pitching three-hit ball and
fanning fiftpgp Fishermen. Bobs con
trol Was a’-Jittle off at times, as four
walks and a hit batsman would attest,
but 'he was never in danger at any
Stage of the game. Ken Goar, a left
hander familiar to local fans, started
against the Hurons, but failed to last,
a vicisious drive off Smiths bat hit
ting hint’ on- the ankle and robbing him
of whatK effectiveness he did have.
Garvey, erstwhile Owen Sounder, fin
ished fbr him.
Offensively, Bart Smith was a one-
man riot all day. Moved into the lead
off spot in the line-up, the shortstop
led off with a base on balls and then
hit a diome-rtin. a double and two sin
gles f(or a perfect day at bat. All of
these'hits were vicious blows which
left rib doubt where they were going.
Rab'hnd Grbves also hit hard and
timely, the former having a pair of
doubles.. A double by Brannick in
the ninth was Souths only real hit.

Hurons a run in the first. In the third
Bridgeford got a life when McKay
let a- third strike get away from him
and scored ahead of Smith when the
latter drove one far into cent-field. A
big fifth inning in which ten men bat
ted for the Tribe netted them four
runs. Bridgeford started and ended
t^ie rally, bouncing one back, to Goar
J^r the first out. Smith also hit1 to

knocked the hurler down a like a ten

The Meaford Knights
their undefeated march
Bruce League trail when
ham Hurons lost up there on Wed
nesday by an 8-5 count. The same
old story, too many costly errors,
proved the’Tribe’s undoing. Tire lead
ing Knights did get to young Bill
Groves for fifteen hits, but these were
not nearly as prominent as the ten
juicy errors the Tribe committed. On
ly a fair crowd watched the athletes
swelter through a hot day.
Warpy Phillips started for Meaford
and the H-urons got all their runs off
him before he retired in favor of
Goldsmith in the sixth. The latter
proved quite effective. Included in the
attack on Groves were two triples.
.Two singles, a double and two er
rors on badly bouncing balls netted
the Knights two in the first but the
Hurons got them back in tihe second,
Smith opening with a double and
scoring on a long double by Groves.
The latter was run down between se-
eofid and third on Ghaliriers’ attempt
ed sacrifice on which the latter lost a
finger nail and had to retire.1 Somers
was put in to run and proceeded to
steal second and third and score eas
ily on a squeeze play by Gray. An-
other unearned Meaford run scored in
the second on a pair of singles and
an error by Gray1. The Knights re
turned the compliment by presenting
the Hurons with one in the third.
Somers opened with a single and stole
second where he remained while both
Mellor and Smith struck out. Oliver
dropped Groves’ fly atid K<ih scored
on the boot.
Three runs in the fourth gave the
Knights a lead they didn’t lost again.
A pair of errors on second by Lloyd
Peterson caused most of the trouble,
Pete doiiig his best to fill the bole left
by Roy James being shifted to Barrie
Suddenly. Three singles and a triple
corhpleted the tout Singles by Mel-
