Wonder why the faithful rooters of the
Detroit Tigers (yours truly included) are spend,
ing some sleepless nights?
favorites from Detroit at the moment
are biding their time in seventh place, getting
ready for a run at the leaders.
The "Butcher Boys" down the street are
singing the blues these days mainly because of
the recent Tiger trades.
east,off Jim Bunning is turning in terrific
mound performances in the National and reached
the pinnacle of success with not only a no-hit job,
but a perfect game, setting down 27 opposing
batters in order on Sunday.
In our opinion, Bunning was the best De-
troit hurler over the past years, his biggest trou-
ble being that he drew pitching assignments
when his teammates behaved like hitless won-
ders.
The majority of his losses were by one
run margins in low scoring games.
"Batch" Wolfe has just come up with the
solution to the Tiger problems. Complaining that
he was never consulted on the recent deals, the
amiable butcher suggests that ex-Tiger outfielder
Harvey Kuehn he secured as manager.

Athletes from.Dashwood Pub-
lic School came back with ven-
geance in capturing the annual
Stephen T o rf n s it i p track and
field, meet witit a total of 165
PeltrtS.
A. year ago the DaShwood
youngsters were only able to
amass 120 points and were rim-
ners-up to Creditors.
This year the procedure was
reversed and Crediton nailed
down second spot with a 126
total.
More than 300 students of the
Township elementary schools
participated in the day long
event held at the Dashwood
school grounds and the Com-
munity Park, Tuesday.
Shipka, a smaller school
showed well, garnering 57
points, good for third position.
Khiva, Blackbush, Sharon and
greenway finished in that order.
Two of last year's individual
winners were back in higher
categories and again plaped at
the top of the class.
Bob Webb of Dashwood, Inter-
mediate boys champ in 1963
carried away the senior award
with four first place finishes.
Thirteen points gave Kevin
Pfaff of Crediton last year's
junior boys titleholder a share
of first place with John Becker
of Dashwood.
Judy Smith of Crediton was
crowned senior girls winner
and John Hayter of Dashwood
took the junior boys title.

Mohawks are deadlocked in

with a single win, while the
winless Merchants trail in the
basement.
Sink Tribe
Seven home club tallies in
the first two frames squashed
any hopes a short-handed,
youthful Exeter crew had of
bringing home a victorySunday.
Jim Berberich, a r egul ar
member of the Walkerton mound
staff, but toiling in the outfield
Sunday, slammed a long triple
in the first inning and followed
with four consecutive singles
to lead his club's power at the
plate.
The Mohawks started out
strong denting the plate three
times in their first try, but
only managed four additional
baserunners in the next eight
innings, only one getting past
first.
In the Tribe's opening spurt,
Gord Strang reached first on an
opposition error, moved up a
notch on Jim Russell's sacri-
fice and scored on a single from
the bat of first sacker Bob Mac-
Naughton.
Dave Taylor followed with a
double to plate MacNaughton and
scored run number three as the
Walkerton hot corner guardian
muffed Rick Boyle's drive.
In addition to Berberich's
power at the plate, Bob Bogdon
added three safeties to his
club's eleven hit total.
Robert Wolfe started on the
Exeter mound and was relieved
by Jim Pfaff with two out in the
second inning.
Each local hurler was able to
pick an opposing runner off
base.
Al Steinhoff went the distance
for Walkerton and after allowing
two hits in the first inning,
settled down and whiffed 12
batters.

The visiting team charged
by way of a protest that the
home club would send a player
in on goal to flip a stick full
of slush and water in the goal-
ie's face and a following attack-
er would fire the puck into the
net.
The following year the rule
was changed giving the visiting

a pair of markers in their first

This may be a refreshing thought in the
middle of a muggy heat wave: the National
Hockey league schedule will open in less than
four months.
The annual all-star game will be played in
Maple Leaf Gardens on Saturday, October 10
and the first scheduled game is two nights later
sending the New York Rangers to Boston to cele-
brate Columbus Day in the U.S.
At the recent NHL meetings in Montreal
an increase of $36,000 was made in the amounts
of money paid to players for season-end finishes
and for play-off positions.
In the 19-64-65 season each member of
the club finishing in first place in the regular
standing will receive $2,250 instead of the prev-
ious $1,500.
Second place finishers will receive an ad-
ditional $500 making their share $1,250 and
third placers will receive $750.
Fourth place money was left unchanged
at $250.
Sorry to have to report to Punch Imlach
and his Toronto M.apleos that the financial re-
muneration for 'winning another Stanley Cup will
'remain at a $2,000 level for each player.
The only play-off hockeyist to make any
gain are the losers in the semi-finals, picking up
an additional $250.
Also announced was the awarding of a
new trophy to the most outstanding player in the
play-offs and it will be known as the Conn
Smythe Trophy.
NHL club owners also authorized presen-
tation of a signet ring to every living member
of the Hall of Fame.
In talking about the Hall of Fame we
were pleased to learn that one of this area's
best known contributions to the NHL, the late
Babe Siebert has been named to this high pin-
nacle of hockey fame.
Winding up on hockey we would like to
add our belated congratulations to the Hensall-
Zurich Combines in winning the all Ontario jun-
ior "D" title and thank George Beer and Bob
McKinley for the opportunity to attend their fine
banquet Friday evening.
PONY TALES
Horse racing has reached a new high in
appeal to the average sports fan in the last sev-
eral months, thanks mainly to the sensational
performances of Northern Dancer, Windfield
Farms fine three-year-old.
This young thoroughbred has certainly
set a gruelling pace, appearing in four of North
America's top races and coming home in front
in three of them.
This is undoubtedly our country's great-
est horse of all time and one of the gamest in
all of the world.
After taking the Queen's Plate quite easily
on Saturday and coming within one second of
the event's record time without being pressed,
the Dancer will take it easy for more than a
month.
He will be shipped to New York this week
and continue light training for his next outing,
the Traverse Stakes in Saratoga, August 22. An
invitation has also been received by E. P. Taylor,
Northern Dancer's owner, to have the three-year-
old appear in an International event in Washing-
ton in November.
Incidentally, several local folks were in
attendance at New Woodbine Saturday afternoon
to take in the Plate highlights.
Mr, and Mrs, Fred Darling of town, Group
Captain and Mrs. Randall of R.C.A.F. Centralia
and. Bob N.1001, also of Exeter were on hand to
witness Canada's greatest racing spectacle.
Incidentally, the same day a fine horse
owned by Darling was declared Reserve Cham-
pion in the open jumper class at the annual Cale-
donia Horse Show.
Fred will campaign the jumper — King
Midas a seven-year-Old — at several shows in the
United States later in the year and at the CNE
in TorOnto.
Rumor is going around town that a chal-
lenge rate will take place at the local track
somewhere around September 1.
Word is out that Aub Farquhar will send,
hiS two-year-Old trotter, Vera E. Scott against
another horse of unknown speed owned by.Ed
Burke,
