By BOB ScHROED E R
While reviewing the area playoff activities
last week, we were surprised to discover that the
small community of Hensall had a total of four
teams competing in. Ontario Baseball Association
playdew ns.
However., on considering the .situation fur-
ther„ we came to the conclusion that it was not
such a surprising circumstance that the northern
locality has come up with four OBA contenders
since sporting activities in that town have flourish.
.ed in both winter and summer and enthusiam for
any sport has always been high.
Now, you may wonder what enthusiasm has
to do with having four teams in OBA playoffs but,
actually, this is one of the main reasons for this
outstanding record. It is because of the enthusiasm
and interest generated by men of the community
that the youngsters are able to play ball and come
up with the fine teams that they have.
Men like Peter MeNaughton, Ed Corbett,
Ernie Chipchase, Sgt. 0. G. Williams, Bert Horton
and Gerry Bell who take an interest in the boys
of, the community .and see that they have a chance
Co participate in their faVorite summer sport are
to be commended for their fine work and it is
these men, along with the boys on the teams, who
are responsible for bringing Hensell the laurels
they have obtained in many and varied fields of
sport.
The enthusiasm of the community as a
whole plays a great part in Hensall's many ch'am-
pionship efforts. Fan support in the village has
never been found lacking and any team has to
have the spirit of the community behind it if it
ever hopes to come up with a top-notch team. All.
Hensall teams have this support.
There is another factor in producing play-
off contenders and that is the calibre of both the
teams and the players. Through the years Hensall
.has managed to bring along some fine teams and
:some fine players, mainly through the coaching
.and help of the interested and sports-minded men
of the community.
However, it is only through constant work
and practice beginning at a very early age that
the youngsters and the teams are able to develop
into the high calibre of ability that is necessary
for a championship effort.
The pee-wee and bantam squads this year
have many standout performers who could become
excellent ball players with practice and time and
:the juvenile team has a number of players who
excel at their respective positions. positions they
have held since pee-wee age.
This could possibly be classed as another
important reason why Hensall has come up with
consistently good teams. Although they do not
have a smooth-working minor system that will look
after a boy from pee-wee to intermediate age, if
there are enough players and they have a winning
team, the men who are interested in the welfare
of the youngsters will bring along a whole team so
that they will have the. same personnel each year
and always be together.
This is indeed an excellent idea and it has
paid off handsomely for this year's juvenile squad.
The youths on this team has been playing together
for the past six or seven years and they have won
many WOAA and Ontario titles. In the past three
years the Hensell squad has won the Ontario midget
crown, the Ontario juvenile title and this year they
are once again in the OBA juvenile finals.
While we're on the subject we should re-
view the playoff situation as it stands now tas of
last weekend) for the four Hensall teams.
The pee-wees were forfeited their first play-
off round after thumping Burgoyne 32-6 in the
first game and they now advance to the Ontario
semi-finals although an opponent for them has not
been indicated as of yet.
The local bantams advanced to the Ontario
"0" division semi-finals after a bit of checking up
revealed that their quarter-finalist opponents from
Eden Mills were actually a "C" team. Their cont-
,petition in the final round will be provided by a
;team from the Oshweken Indian reserve.
The Hensall juvenile squad advanced to the
OBA semi-finals for the third straight year by
dumping Allenford in two straight games in their
first playoff encounter. Their championship round
opponents have not been named yet.
The fourth team in Ilensall's playoff pic-
ture, the intermediate squad. was eliminated Fri-
day night by the powerful Lumber Kings from
Zurich. Last year the Itensall team went right to
the Ontario finals before being sidelined.
And so, if things go right. the village of
}tensall could boast three Ontario championship
teams once all the playoff action its completed

TWO VARIETIES OF BOWLING
With the fall season approaching and the
summer months fading, it is that time of :year
when we get two forms of bowling at the same
time.
Aub Farquhar, proprietor of the Exeter
Bowling Lanes, reports that league bowling re-
sumes next week after a lzioff during the summer
months. The sport of howling is probably the
favorite of a great number of people during the
winter and ha popularity is growing all the time
Aub stated that anyone wishing to compete in
league action this season who has not done so
before should get in touch Ix ith him.
Bowling on the local greens during the
hummer season has certainly proven to be a popu-
lar pastime for many local residents and the greens
are now in operation practically every night as
well aS Some afternoons. The popularity of this
sport has also gained momentum in the past few
years and after trying our hand at the game we
can see ;0.thy It is being enjoyed by more and more
