Four teams will be members of the league this season. Walkerton, Z urich, Staffa and Dashwood have e ntered teams in the league with all four teams playing a double schedule. One pf the highlights of this year's schedule is a July 1 doubleheader between Zurich and Walkerton at Znrich. The Staffa club will play all its home games in the Mitchell park.

Pitchers' battles, lopsided wins provide variety in rec contests Howard Treumner and Ted Chambers, two Exeter bowlers, took first place with three wins and a plus of 29 in the Exeter Lawn Bowling Club's first tour- nament of the year. Other area towns were well represented at the Gould and Jory sponsored tourney with two Goderich teams placing in the first five. Archie Townsend and Stan Robinson of Goderich finished very close to the winning duo with three wins and a plus of 28 while Ross Taylor and Wilf Shapton of Exeter took third place with two wins and a plus of 24. Earl Allison and Pete Bissett of Goderich had the same score as the Exeter pair but had to settle for fourth place when they lost their aggregate total 68-59.

The game was scoreless until the top of the sixth inning when the Legion scored their three runs with Cy Blommaert's single being the key blow, but the home club rallied for two runs in their half of the sixth and then plated the tying marker in the last of the seventh. The Airmen scored their two runs in the sixth on an error and base hits by Neil Hatch and Romain and then scored the tying run in the bottom of the seventh when Ellis was hit by a pitch, advanced to third on a passed ball and an infield out and then scored on aground out. Don Wells was the only other Legion player to get a hit off Remain besides Blommaert while Romain, Hatch, Murray and Ellis each had one hit for the Airmen.

It was the second tie game in a row for the Airmen who play- ed a scoreless tie with Crediton last Wednesday. Their Monday night tie gave them a one-point lead over the Legion who laced the Old Timers by a 19-1 score last Wednesday and a two-point lead over the Lanes who had their Monday night game against the Kinsmen washed out. Crediton holds down fourth place in the league with one point while the Kinsmen and Old Timers are tied for fifth place with no points. Monday night's Legion-Air- men battle featured a brilliant pitching duel between the Le- gion's Dick Bennett and Les Romain of the Airmen with Romain allowing just two hits and striking out seven, while Bennett gave up four hits and NO RUNS Last Wednesday night the Airmen and Crediton played nine innings but were unable ECCPATID1%. WORLD'S BIGGEST SELLER! 01 MILT'S MOWER AND CYCLE 436 Main Street Exeter, Phone 235-2940 to break a scoreless tie while the Legion belted the Old Tim- ers 19-1 for their first win of the season. At the Airport, pitchers Les Romain of the Airmen and Gord Slaght of Crediton, completely dominated the game by striking out 32 batters between them. Remain fanned 21 hitters and did not permit a runner past second base while Slaght struck out 11 and allowed only four Airmen to reach third base. Crediton batters were able to get to Romain for two hits while the Airmen managed six off Slaght with Carl Reynolds leading the attack with two safe- ties. The Legion had little trouble with the Old Timers on Wednes- day night at the local diamond as they scored 13 runs in the opening inning and then coasted to a lopsided 19-1 victory. Seventeen men came to the plate in the first inning outburst with Murray Elrintnell, Chub Edwards, Jerry Finnen and Jim Hennessey getting two hits apiece in the big inning. The Old Timers scored their only run in the second inning when Dick McFalls singled home Ron Bogart. Thirdbaseman Jerry Finnen led the Legion attack with four straight hits, two of which were home runs. Don Wells hit an- other round tripper for the With the current major league baseball season moving into its third month, two surprise teams are holding down first place in the Ameri- can and National Leagues. The Minnesota Twins are holding a three and a half game lead over the favoured Chicago White Sox while the Los Angeles Dodgers, although they lost three games to the Milwaukee Braves on the weekend, still maintain a three-game lead over the Braves. The Twins, who have relied on their home run power for the past couple of years are now going for more speed on the basepaths and bet- ter pitching and so far it has paid off, Camilo Pascual, who has one of the best curve balls in the big leagues, is the only standout on the Twins' pitching staff but Jim `Mucleat' Grant, a former Cleveland Indian, and lefthander Jim Kaat are having good seasons and these three have combined to keep opponents from mount- ing a big lead on the Twins as they have done in former years. Harmon Killebrew, who has led the AL in homers for the last three seasons, Bob Allison, Jim Hall and last year's Rookie of the Year and batting champion, Tony Oliva, still give the Twins a lot of home run power but this year the Twins are stealing more bases and going for the extra base and it has paid off so far. Unlike the Twins, the Dodgers have very few players who can knock the ball out of the park and they rely on their speed, defense and fine pitching staff to win. Most of the experts wrote the Dodgers pennant hopes off when out- fielder Tommy Davis broke his ankle early last month. Davis, who has won the NL batting cham- pionship twice, was one of the main cogs in the LA attack but the Dodgers didn't fold and are still leading the senior circuit by a full three games. With talent like Don Drysdale, Sandy Koufax, Johnny Podres and Claude Osteen, Man- ager Walter Alston has the best pitching staff in the Majors and if the team can continue to give these four starting pitchers a couple of runs to work with they could go all the way. Shortstop Maury Wills has stolen 34 bases already this season and is the Dodger leader in the base running department but slender Willie Davis who patrols centre field for the west-coast club is considered the fastest runner on the squad and gives opposing pitchers fits when he is on base. With four months remaining in the sched- ule anything can happen but from the early showings of these two teams it appears certain that they will be top contenders in their respec- tive leagues.

Last year Red Loader and Gord Baynham ran the team but other duties forced them to step down this year and leave the team with no officials. The midget schedule has been drawn up and the local club will play their opening game in Exeter against Lucan on June 21. Rev. John Boyne will coach the team that will play in a midget-juvenile loop consisting of Lucan, Clin- ton, Clinton Juveniles, Listowel, Mitchell and Hensel'. Lorne Haugh and Bill MacLean will han- dle the pee wee club but as yet their schedule has not been made up. The sked should be pub- lished shortly and the pee wees will be holding regular workouts. In addition to officials for the bantams, umpires for the various games and transporta- tion are also required to make the minor base- ball season successful and anyone who is inter- ested in helping out with these things is asked to contact team managers or Alvin Willert.

RUSTLINGS — Officials of the new Exeter Golf Course being built near the Morrison Dam report that the course is coming along slow and steady. Due to a strike in the lawn mower company, work on the greens has been held up but the course's new water system is pumping over 1,000 gallons on the greens every evening to keep them green and lush. Workmen have been top dressing and cutting the large greens as well as seeding and fertilizing the fairways but despite earlier optimism it is unlikely that there will be any play permitted on the layout this season . After three organizational meetings it finally ap- pears that the Huron-Perth league will operate this year with four teams. Dashwood has joined Staffa, Zurich and Walkerton in the league with the first game scheduled for Zurich on June 9 with Staffa supplying the opposition. The league will play a double schedule and will end July 25. 1958 Pontiac Pathfinder 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne Sedan, whitewall tires, goad condition. Coach, whitewall tires, 7,000 actual miles. "
