Tigers in rl'igertown. it doesn't seem to matter when these two clubs meet, there is always a little .something extra for the fans ' to hoot and heel' about. One incident we re- member quite clearly and every time we go into the town -of Dashwood we are reminded of it by the Hayter brothers and Mer- vin Tiernan. It all happen- ed in a playoff game late last smiler er \when the tribe was leading the „a Tigers in the last inning. We :ay the last inning because it was so dark that even burned out floodlights wouldn't have helped. The situation had Dashwood runners on eeei second and third with two away when one of the tiger hitters sent a bloop- lrig fly out into centrefield. According to the Mo- hawk centrefielder it was so dark he couldn't see the ball and it dropped about a foot in front of him to score Dashwood'a two base runners with the win- ning runs, Did you ask why I am getting razzed? It just so happens that I was that centrefielclert Getting back to the opening day on the Dash- wood. diamond, it looks as though Steve Mitro will be called upon to do the initial starting assignment for the Bengals. Steve is well known around these parts as he toiled for the Mohawks once upon a. time. Mitro is one of the league's top hurlers and if he's on, the tribe will have their hands full in trying to knock him out of the box. By the way, Steve seems to be keeping in top shape as he played through u:, at the Grand Bend go" course last weekend. He had Bob rleharg, an- other old Mohawk standby, along with him. At first I thought it was Moe Norman coming up the fairway in such a skirmish: Steve Mitro A FAMILIAR.

It Was pleasant listening to the radio report to hear that' Stan 'The Man" Musial collected his 3.000th hit, Although he didn't start the game in Chicago, Stan appeared in a pinch-hitting role when he was needed and being the great man he is, he drilled a long double deep into the outfield. The Cardinal manager wasn't going to ase Stan until the club arrived home for its next series but'was forced . to use him to win a ball game. We're sure the .St. Louis fans will give him a rousilig ovation when he strolls up to the plate for his first appearance at horde.. * * BUMPiNG THE GUMS Lloyd Turvey started off the racing season. with a bang in driving a winner at the Goderich /neet last Wednesday ...
