Gerald Bell, starting on the hill for Staffa, went the first four, allowing only three hits. In the final two frames, Wal- lace held the tribe scoreless. Jim Russell and Ken Park- er shared Exeter hill duties. Coach Wooden notched the final Mohawk safety, a single to right in the fourth. Recreation news by 'Boom' After a very slow start, probably .due to the frequent weather changes, reports of good fish catches are becoming a little more numerous. The perch displayed good appetites at Goderich during the past week. A trio of area anglers took more than 70 in an expedition to the breakwater at the Huron County Town. Everett Fahner, George Hicks and Chester Mawhinney were successful in bringing home the good catch Friday, several weighing close to 2 pounds. In local streams, Bart Pascuzzo of Crediton landed six pike, all in the 25-inch range, in one evening of angling in the Ausable River in the vicinity of Crediton. Farther afield, John and Elaine Webster along with Bill and Ray Kell enjoyed a fruitful fishing holiday at the Webster cabin at Stokes Bay. John reports he and his wife caught about 15 northern pike along with some good sized perch and bass. The largest "northern" landed tipped the scales at 12 pounds. A pew book entitled "Fishes of Ontario" has just been published that should be of interest to all fishermen, It was written by H. H, McKay, the super- visor of fisheries for the Department of Lands and Forests. Dr. McKay is retiring this year after 37 years with the department. The book, selling for $2.50, is available from the Department of Lands and Forests. An interesting and easy-to-read volume, it describes the fishes found in the waters of Ontario and gives a few tips on how to draw them to your line. Did you ever catch a Stizostedion vitreum vitreum.? This Is the Latin scientific name for a pickerel, in some localities called a walleye or jackfish. List balance of H-P sked Playground's under way The remaining games of the Huron-Perth Baseball league schedule have been released by President Bob Sadler of Staffa.

KINGS EDGE DURHAM A four-run sixth inning gave the Zurich Lumber Kings an 8-5 verdict over Durham in a Huron-Perth interlocking sche, duled game in the Grey County town. Centre fielder poug O'- Brien's crashing triple culmin- ated the rally to put the game on ice, Singles by Richard Stade, Earl Wagner and Don O'Brien along with Bruce Moir's dou.,le set the stage for the game winning blow. Each team scored once in the first inning, Zurich added two in the second and Durham came back with a pair in the third to again tie the score. Again in the fifth the clubs divided a pair of runs to keep the count even until the sixth. The home team added another in the final but Don O'Brien, going the distance on the mound for Zurich, shut the door to preserve the victory. Pitcher O'Brien's single cha- sed Earl Wagner across the plate with the first run of the tilt after the shortstop tripled to open the game. Singles by Dennis Amacher and Don 0' Brien, a walk to Stade and Wagner's double accounted for Zurich's two-run second frame. The winners' single tally in the fifth came as the result of a single by Bruce Moir, a walk to Doug O'Brien and Larry Bedard's looping single.

Exeter Grays increased their lead in the Huron Ladles soft- ball loop with:lopsided wins over 13rucefield and Blyth. On their home field Tues- day, the Greys shut out from Blyth by an overwhelming 57-0 figure. Scoring in every inning, the home team fattened their batting averages. Audrey Poeley and Dolly Mattson paced the un- merciful attack with four hits apiece. Jean Taylor and Ann Cronyn followed in close order with three bingles each. Helen Ebel went the seven inning distance , keeping the visitors well in check, allowing only two runners to reach third base. DECIDE CONTEST EARLY On the Brucefielci diamond Friday, the Exeter ladies struck quickly for eight runs in each of the first two frames to pretty well sew up the contest that ended 21-10. Seven consecutive base hits after the first batter in the game popped up put the locals out in front to stay. Brucefield's only threat came in the seventh when they were able to tally six times. Audrey Pooley was the top Exeter swatsmith, banging four safeties, three going for extra bases. Three consecutive doub- les gave Dolly Mattson runner- up position in the batting de- partment, with Dorothy Wil- son's double and two singles right behind. Furnishing a pair of hits apiece were Jean Taylor, Dar- lene Snell and Helen Ebel and Mary Gravett checked in with a lone single, Kay Sharp was the o ni y Brucefield batter to give the Exeter hurlers any trouble as she slammed a homer and two triples.

KIN CAMP Registrations are still being accepted for the second annual summer Kinsmen Camp which is being held at the Goderich Kinsmen home runs give Lanes first loss Golf honors to Cushman Murray Brintnell, Jim Pinder and Charlie Atthill picked up the other Legion hits, all of the single variety. Losing pitcher Doug Brintnell fanned five Crediton batters in going the distance while his opponent Slaght whiffed three. Sco Don Jackson, trailing in sec- ond spot in the Exeter Lawn Bowling point parade a week ago, increased his total to 85 Tuesday to emerge the winner of the club's first monthly com- petition. Wilf Shapton, leader most of the way, finished in the runner- up spot with 76, followed close- ly by Ray Smith and Bob Mid- dleton at 75 and 68 points re- spectively. Next Tuesday, another four- week contest will get underway since the first proved to be quite successful. More than 30 bowlers have been showing keen interest in this new event that provides merchandise prizes to the win- ner of the month-long action. SMITH, JOHNSTON TOPS Ray Smith and Gar Johnston won first prize in the weekly Saturday jitney at the local greens in a very close finish. The winning pair compiled two wins and a plus of 10 to edge out Verne Smith and Clar- ence Down, who finished with the same number of wins and a plus of nine. Lloyd Cushman walked off with low gross honors at the first men's golf tournament of the season at the Exeter Golf Club. Firing a 40 on the first nine, the winner toured the final half with a blazing 36 to finish with a respectable 76. Dick Jermyn and Dick Weber tied for low net score, comple- ting the 18 hole grind in 83 minus a handicap of 6. The award for low gross score on any nine was nabbed by Don Southeott, firing a 39 in the outgoing half. Only contestants to break par on any hole during the evening of play were Mel Soper and Cushman, firing birdie threes. Soper notched his par breaker on the 310-yard first and Cush- man connected on the fifth hole, 315 yards from the tee. Exeter Mohawks dropped two Huron-Perth contests over the past week to stretch their los- ing streak to five, After losing to Staffa 13-2 Thursday, the tribe turned in a solid performance in Walkerton Sunday but lost 4-2 to the home club, The locals meet Durham this weekend in their first Sunday game here. Friday's tilt against Zurich has been cancelled be- cause of the Orangemen's cele- bration. PITCHERS' DUEL The contest in the Bruce county town turned into a pit- chers' battle right from the opening toss. Jim Pfaff, a Crediton juven- ile throwing for Exeter, gave up only four scattered hits, while his opponent, another youngster, Ed Cassidy, allowed only five. Mohawks started the scoring early with two markers in their first trip to the plate. Shortstop George Wright reached first on a fielder's choice, Joe Wooden singled to right and Steve Kyle sent both runners home with a long triple. That summed up the Mohawk attack. Wooden picked up two more singles and Wright hit a safety later in the game but they were in vain. Walkerton tied the score in the bottom of the third on a walk, an error and a double by Bogden. The home team, again helped by fielding errors and two hits, pushed across two more in the sixth. Pfaff, making his first start in intermediate company, threw a steady game. The young right- h anderetruck out ten, walking only three. PLAY SHORTHANDED Due to a misunderstanding in travel arrangements, Mohawks arrived in Mitchell Thursday with only seven men to meet Staffa Merchants. Two players were borrowed from the Staffa bench In order to get the contest underway. A walk to John Wade, Simon Nagel's single and a two-bagger from the bat of Jim Russell in the first inning accounted for the only Mohawk counters. The Merchants came right back in their half to score three times and take a lead that held up throughout. Roger Pauli and Laverne "Porky" Wallace were tops in the Staffa batting parade, Pauli cracked a triple in the first, singles in the fourth and fifth. Wallace, who started in the outfield and wound up on the mounded, collected a quartette. He cleared the sacks in the first with a long belt to left that went Centralia RCAF Internation- als mowed down their first opposition in the armed forces Pearkes Trophy round robin soccer competition Saturday. Playing at the Royal Military College grounds in Kingston, the Internationals shut out a squad from the Kingston Army Garrison by a 7-0 score. Taking a 2-0 half-time mar- gin, the local air force club broke loose with four goals in eight minutes early in the se- cond half and added one as time ran out to complete the rout. Nwosu led the scorers, boo- ting a hat-trick. Single goals were fired by Ato, Gbadmosi, Aleydino and Gerry Cummings. The Centralia team under the guidance of F/L James Brown have drawn a bye in this week's play and will meet Clinton, Camp Borden and Trenton on successive weekends. The latest win in Kingston was the Internationals sixth straight, four by way of the shut-out route. The team defensively now has the record of keeping the opposition off the score sheet for the last 395 minutes of play. INTERLOCKING GAMES TIGHT Making our almost weekly report on the situation in the Huron-Perth ball loop, we find two items of interest. The interlocking schedule with a pair of teams from the WOAA, namely Walkerton and Durham, has finally been arranged. Each of the northern clubs will play a home-and-home series with the three surviving members of the league. After a pair of weekend contests involving the new entries, with both outcomes being in doubt right to the finish, area fans can be as- sured of interesting action for the next month or so, A disturbing note, which we hope is only temporary, comes from the home front in Exeter. Looking for a good season with some 20 as- piring ball hawks out to early workouts, the Mo- hawks have been having their share of trouble, The club showed up in Mitchell, Thursday for an engagement with the Staffa Merchants with only 7 players in uniform. Two players were borrowed from the home team in order to get the contest under way. Summer school commitments along with longer work schedules at some jobs have been responsible for the woes suffered by Coach Joe Wooden in lining up a team. In actual competition, the Tribe have dropped their first five starts. They turned in their 'best performance in losing a close decision to Walkerton in their last time out and could be ready to break into the win column. Exeter Bowling. Lanes' un- beaten record in Rec Softball play came to an end Monday when they were edged out by the Exeter Kinsmen 12-10. Home runs played a big part in the scoring. John Wade, Les- ter Heywood and Lloyd Moore slammed bases empty round- trippers in a second inning Kinsmen rally to put them in front 4-2. Jim Russell poled homers in the third and fourth and Mc- Kerlie rapped a solo homer, also in the third, to keep the Lanes in the running. Ted Wright and John Wade shared the winners' pitching chores, holding the previously unbeaten "bowlers" in check. Bud Fisher went the route for the losers in his first start of the year. Moore and Heywood, in addi- tion to hitting circuit clouts, picked up a single and double each to lead the "Kin" win.

LOCALS SHINE DURING FINAL NIGHT The Western Fair Raceway in London wound up its 1963 spring harness race meet with the largest crowd of the year in attendance Sat- urday night. More than 6,000 racing enthusiasts cram- med their way into the popular London East oval to witness a good program of nine races. The highlight for any local fans in attend- ance Was the sixth race, a pacing event for $500. Marshall Moore brought Sister Harmony C owned by Bill Ellerington of Exeter and Sheri- dan Revington of Lucan down in front. The seven- year-old mare paced the mile in 2,07 4/5 to nose out the second place finisher, Atomite, owned by Lloyd Purvey of Exeter.
