Soccer club reaches finals Greys lace Brussels to stay in contention scores. Andy Anderson notched the first on a long shot and Jerry Cummings booted the other on a skillful play as he feigned the defence out of posi- tion and waltzed in to score easily, St. Columban pressed to start the second half but the Centralia defensive corps was steady, es- pecially when they played short for five minutes. Eleven minutes had elapsed when Cummings fired his second of the night and Harry Forman followed with the clin- cher, less than two minutes from the finish.. The high school football sch- edule for the Huron-Perth Con- ference has been released. The senior circuit has seven teams competing and the junior classification is comprised of only three entries. HSDHS is entered in both junior and senior ranks, The local senior Panthers started the campaign yester- day, Wednesday, playing host to HCDHS from Clinton. Follow- ing is the senior schedule: Thurs., Oct. 3 Listowel at Clinton Stratford at Mitchell Huron South at Seaforth Goderich at Wingham Exeter Greys, with their backs to the wall, came up with a 14-'7 win over Brussels under the lights in Hensall Monday to tie the best-of-five Huron La- dies softball final at two games apiece. The fifth and deciding contest was played in Brussels last night, Wednesday. The winner of this contest moves into the WOAA semi-finals against Mit- chell, Wed., Oct. 9 Mitchell at Wingham Seaforth at Listowel Stratford at Huron South Clinton at Goderich Staffa Merchants have fallen one game back in a best-of-five series in their quest for the OBA Intermediate "C" title. The Huron-Perth represen- tatives were shut-out 6-0 by Little Britain in a Sunday en- counter in the Eastern village. Play will resume in Staffa Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m. with the third slated for Little Britain October 6. HITS SCARCE Ron Jewell, a fire-balling right hander, was stingy with base hits in his home park Sunday, limiting the Staffa boys to three scattered safeties. The young hurler exhibited fine con- trol, going the full nine inning di stance without giving up a sin- gle free ticket. The home club backed up its pitcher with flawless fielding support and the only Merchants to reach base were three who hit safely. George Coveney with a two out single in the first frame was the initial H-P performer to reach the base paths. Again in the seventh, C oveney touchedJe- wel's offerings for a single with one out, but failed to move along the paths. Coach Hugh McGillivray's ringing double in apinch-hitting role with two outs recorded in the ninth accounted for the third and final Staffa base runner. Southpaw Gerry Bell toiled on the Merchants' hill and turned in a creditable performance. Bell was only scored upon in two innings. Thurs., Oct. 17 Clinton at Wingham Listowel at Mitchell Seaforth at Stratford Huron South at Goderich Squirts behind 1-0 must tie series here Thurs., Oct. 24 Mitchell at Clinton Wingham at Seaforth Huron South at Listowel Stratford at Goderich Hank Leach, tossing from the walsingham hill, was tough in the clutches, stranding I? lum- bermen on the base pAttis. A.1, though giving up only four he was in trouble quite often as the result of seven free Passes he issued and five fielding mis- takes by his Mates. The game, almost on even terms for most of six innings, broke ppen in the seventh when the visitors scored four times and the homesters once to give the Senators a 5-2 decision. A single by George Gates sent brother cord and Bert Abbott across the pan in the seventh frame outburst to register what proved to be the winning runs. Each team threatened in the second stanza but failed to dent the scoreboard. After two men were retired, the visitor s loaded the sacks on a single and a couple of errors but Zurich's manager-pitcher Don O'Brien induced his hurling adversary Leach to pop to second. Earl Wagner and O'Brien Walked to the Zurich half and Bruce Moir dumped down a perfect sacrifice bunt to move his mates along into scoring position, At this point Leach duplicated O'Brien's feat by settling down and retiring the next two batters. Again in the third each club managed to get two runners on the paths but could riot push them across. The Senators managed to plate their first run in the fourth as Smith singled and came home on right fielder Jim Schott's triple with no one out. O'Brien again buckled down and forced the next three batters to pop or fly out. Bruce Moir tripled with one away in the Zurich half of the same inning but was left stran- ded. Moir connected for his second hit of the day to open the sixth, this time a double. The next two batters grounded out and the threat seemed to be stalled when Larry Bedard came through with a two-bagger to plate Moir and knot the count. After the visitors had taken a 5-1 lead in the top of the seventh, centre fielder Doug O'Brien retaliated by smashing a long home run to the bushes in right centrefield to complete the game scoring, O'Brien, throwing his third complete game of the series, struck out four and walked but one. For the third consecutive week an area baseball team has been eliminated from OBA play, this time cutting the number of potential champions to two. Zurich Lumber Kings were sidelined by the perennial title holders from Walsingham. This marks the third year in succession that the small community in Norfolk County has claimed the title. Don O'Brien comes up with a good King club each year but they run into the same team every year and it is beginning to get a little monotonous. The other Huron-Perth intermediate club, Staffa Merchants, are 'still in the hunt, Participat- ing a hest-of-five final, the Merchants dropped 'the first game in Little Britain by a 6-0 count. The second contest will be played ill Staffa Sat- urday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The Little Britain club, representing a small community in the Lindsay - Peterborough area, sports one of the finest ball parks in the country, Bob Sadler, president of the H-P loop re- ports the park is fitted with lights, completely surrounded by bleachers and has dressing rooms, loud speaker systems and all the features of big league fields. - Exeter Squirts dropped their first game to Mountsfield in OBA "C" semi-final play and will try to get back in contention on their home field Saturday at 1:30, If a third game is needed in the best-of•three set it will be played later Sat- urday, also at the local park. WE'RE REDUCED TO HALF Beginning this week, our weekly sports column will be reduced to about half of its usual length. The bottom half of our section will be de- voted to reporting five pin bowling scores of the various leagues in Exeter and surrounding area. This corner will become the regular spot for the weekly presentation of one of fall and winter's most active sports. There will be some changes in the presen- tation of the scores and we hope that all bowling enthusiasts will familiarize themselves with the new set-up. This new system has been necessi- tated by the change in printing process adopted by this newspaper. In future, the names of the teams will be designated by two initials only. The name of the member of each team rolling the highest triple will be listed along with the number of points the team earned during the week in question and followed by the total number of points in the league standing. If a team has a name made up of a single word the first two letters will be used and if a club's name involves two words the first letter of each word will designate the team. For ex- ample, the Spares will be shown as SP and Larry's Supertest as SU.

Four walks and three errors along with four base hits chased nine big markers across as 13 girls came to bat. Singles by Mary Gravett, Ann Cronyn and Helen Ebel along with Ann Jorgenson's double, her second hit of the night, powered the big rally. The Brussels club took the lead in the first frame with a single run and were threatening with the bases crammed when Helen Ebel on the Exeter pit- ching slab retired the side. • The Exeter club took little Centralia invites time to get on even terms and go ahead. With the first batter in the Grey half retired, Dolly Mattson singled and rode home on short- stop Audrey Pooley's long home run. Another out was recorded and Darlene Snell drew a free pass and came home on Ann Jorgenson's first double of the night. The visitors fought back with a pair of tallies in the third to tie the count at 3-3. The teams battled through three scoreless frames until the game-winning Exeter rally in the sixth. Brussels counted four times in the seventh to complete their game scoring. The winning Greys finalized their run total with single scores in the seventh and eighth. Mattson carried run number 13 home on Pooley's single and consecutive safeties by Dorothy Wilson and Rose Carey accoun- ted for the final. Helen Ebel and Rose Carey shared the Exeter pitching du- ties with the latter coming to the rescue in a relief role in the eighth. During her stay Ebel was in complete control until Brussels countered with a mild rally in the seventh. Snell Bros. Ltd. L.

SUNK BY SMITH Catcher Jim Smith practical- ly spelled defeat single-handed- ly for the Exeter kids. He collected four hits in as many times to the plate. he young receiver banged a home run on his first trip to the pan as lead-off man in the first and followed with a pair of three-baggers and a single.

Smith's homer, his first hit, evened the count very quickly. The home team tallied twice in the second on three singles. The Mountsfield catcher tripled in the fourth and scored on an infieldipg error to up the score to 4-1. Exeter's final marker was registered in the sixth. Haugh led off, being hit by a pitched ball, stole second and third and came home with the help of a ..dountsfield bobble. Smith's second three-bagger of the afternoon sent the closing score of the game across the plate in the bottom of the sixth. The game was actually a pitcher's battle between a cou- ple of Jim's. Jenkins on the Mountsfield mound allowed but two hits, both in the first inning and fanned 15 in the seven inning contest. Guenther, tossing for the Exeter crew, sent ten home teamsters back to the bench by way of the strike-out route. On five occasions, the locals were able to get the first batter in an inning safely aboard but couldn't produce the hits to cash potential runs, Badminton enthusiasts in Exeter and district have been invited to participate in the RCAF Centralia club's season activities.

The local air force club downed the 1st Battalion of Canadian Guards Regiment at Camp Picton 3-2 Saturday to take the best-of-three series two straight. During the western trip, the CE crew will be pitted against eight army, navy and air force clubs from all parts of Canada. A tip-in by Hughes on a beautiful play setup by Stan Jenkinson in the second half gave the Internationals the mar- gin of victory to gain the Cana- dian final, The clubs battled on even terms in, the first half, each scoring twice. The home team was quick to take the lead, bootingthe opener at the three minute mark. Jerry Cummings knotted the score around the half-way mark of the opening period. A penalty shot by Oley Horn put the CE boys in front with about ten minutes left in the half. Only a minute later the Army club, reinforced with five new players for the contest, again booted the equalizer. The turning point of the tilt came at the 17-minute mark of the closing half when a Picton penalty kick hit the Centralia cross-bar and bounced harm- lessly away. Jim Brown's footballers were quick to take advantage of this break and 37 seconds later Jenkinson set Hughes free in front of the net to cop the winner. The Internationals moved into a defensive shell the balance of the route to preserve the vic- tory. WIN HURON CUP Centralia Internationals downed St. Columban 4-0 in Brussels Wednesday to win the Prof it t Cup, emblematic of Huron Football league supre- macy. It was an extremely rough contest that was completed with the teams playing ten aside as one member of each club were banished. More than 30 minutes had elapsed in the fray when Cen- tralia struck for two quick Don Dinney combined with safe singles. A walk to Dick Colter and Dave Tatz's triple along with a sacrifice fly plated Crediton's third frame counters. A trio of walks, an error and singles by Larmond, Murphy and Neil Hatch produced the three runs in the fifth. Colter's single chased Russ Beaver home in the Crediton ninth to end the scoring. Epton tosses the distance tor CE, allowing but seven hits. Grant Jackson and Gord Siarht divided pitching chores for the losing Rockets. The primary industries -- agriculture, forestry, fisher- ies, trapping mining and elec- tric power -- now employ only about 16 percent of all working Canadians. Centralia Airmen have moved one game up over C rediton Rockets in the best-of-seven Rec softball final as the result of three games played during the past week. Crediton took the first game in squeakish fashion 5-4 and the air force boys captured the next two in rather convincingfashion 14-4 and 24-12.
