The junior team remained undefeated in two starts as they registered a 13-0 victory. The injury-rid- dled Panthers again took it on the nose as they absorbed a 12-1 loss at the hands of the Stratford Ramblers. Hit hard with aca- demic ineligibilities at the start of the season the Panthers have also had to contend with many crippling injuries. Backflelder Bud DesJardine was a doubtful starter at the beginning of the season and has seen only limited action so far this season. Al- ready on the sidelines are centre Tony Leversedge and ends Bob Beavers and Charlie Klopp. It is not probable that any of these players will suit up for the Pan- thers' three remaining games. Quarterback Paul Mason missed the Stratford game with a bad ankle but will be back for the St. Marys game tomorrow. Also on the limp during the season have been end Gary Jones and place kicker Dick Colter. Len Hume, a centre, was forced to go at half speed in the Wingham game. On Friday, South Huron lost the toss and kicked to Stratford. The Ramblers soon gave up the ball on downs and the Panthers took over on the Stratford 37. Bud DesJardine and Dick Colter roll- ed up a first down and a 14 yard aerial to Colter netted another first down. A penalty and an incomplete pass stalled the Pan- thers who were forced to try a field goal. Colter's attempt fail- ed to split the uprights and the Panthers had to settle for a single. Stratford picked up a single first down before they had to kick. However, they got the ball right back again when the kick was fumbled. Four first downs later Brian Bell finished off the drive with a three yard touch- down run. John Franklin, on a 20 yard run, and Dick Colter made first downs before the panthers were forced into a punting situation. Stratford had to do likewise and Colter and Al Youngash rolled up first downs for the Panthers before the end of the half. Neither team could mount an offensive until Stratford picked up a pair of first downs near the end of the third quarter. The Panthers, however, forced them to kick. South Huron had the ball on their own 29 when Rambler defensive halfback Ke- vin O'Leary picked off a South Huron pass and scampered 40 yards for the touchdown. The convert was no good but Strat- ford had a 12-1 lead. Midway through the final quarter the Panthers made their greatest threat. John Franklin made three big first downs and Ron Crown added another leav- ing the ball at the Stratford 7. But South Huron gave the ball up on downs, Stratford took over but the Panthers soon had the ball again as Keith Strang recovered a fumble at the Stratford 34. The teams traded punts before a Panther fumble ended the game with the final score Stratford Ramblers 12, South Huron Pan- thers 1. In the junior encounter, the younger version of the Panthers became the only undefeated team when they whipped the Stratford juniors 13-1. The whole South Huron team played well with special mention going to Jim Hayter who had a fine two way effort and to Len McNeely who played well defensively. Hayter, a fullback, had 10 carries for 72 yards or a commendable 7.2 yard average. Although there was no score at half time South Huron had a big advantage in play although the Stratford crew greatly out- weighed the junior Panthers. In one stretch the Panthers carried the ball froth their own 23 to the Stratford 29. During this drive they picked 4 first downs, 3 by Hayter. Hayter excited the crowd with an electrifying 88 yard return of the opening kickoff in the third quarter, The husky fullback then converted his touchdown. Stratford picked up a single first down before Mike Cooper recovered a Rambler Amble. The teams then traded kicks but. South Huron finally took over on the Stretford 25. Quarterback Ke- yen McKinnon gained 5 yards and Hayter picked up the first down with a 6 yard run. Mike Hoy chalked up 6 more yards and Hayter brought it to the '7 with a 7 yard gain. McKinnon went over for the touchdown on his second try. Baylor missed the convert but the score was South Huron 13 Stratford 1.

FOR ALL GOOD SPORTS By Jim Russell Page 1 0 Times-Advocate, October 21, 1965 Panthers lose home game I was right (nearly) 1881111111111111111111111181111111111111111111111111118111111111111011111111111111111111111111111111111111181111111111118111111111111 The 1965 World Series is now history but be- fore we forget about baseball for the next few months to concentrate on fall and winter activities we would like to take this time to comment on the series and pat ourselves on the back for picking the winner. After the first two games in Minnesota our prediction of a Dodger victory in six games seemed a bit shaky as the Twins defeated both Don Drysdale and Sandy Koufax who between them had won 49 games for the National League representatives. Los Angeles, however, came back to life when they reached the friendly confines of Chavez Ravine as they bunted and stole their way to three wins to take the series' lead and have a chance to win the set in six games. Minnesota's Jim Grant stalled the Dodgers with a splendid pitching performance in the sixth game but Kou fax came back to win his second game to give the Dodgers the series. This year's fall classic was a perfect example of the importance of pitching and, while hitting is a big factor in baseball, pitching is the thing that wins or loses games. The Dodgers were one of the weak- est hitting clubs in the majors this year but their fine pitching staff led by Koufax, Drysdale and Osteen combined to win 64 of the team's 97 vic- tories to give them the pennant in a powerful league containing the likes of Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Ken Boyer, Hank Aaron, Eddie Matthews, Billy Wil- liams and Joe Torre. After the first two series games the Dodger pitching staff came alive to muffle the Twins' bats with Koufax pitching two shutouts and Osteen and Drysdale coming up with victories. Minnesota's pitch- ing was one of the surprises and was not responsible for the Twins' loss as Jim Kaat and Jim 'Mudcat' Grant both pitched effectively in their two starting assignments. The Minnesota pitchers, however, are accustomed to working with a lot of runs but after the first two encounters, runs were scarce and a lot of pressure was put on the Twin hurlers. Although we picked the Dodgers to take the series, they weren't supposed to be even in the run- ning as we picked the Cincinnati Reds and the Chi- cago White Sox to meet in the fall classic but we weren't as far wrong as those who picked the Yankees. GOLF COURSE SHAPING UP The new Ausable Golf Course south of the Morrison Dam should develop into one of the finest courses in the area in the next couple of years. The new layout has been under construction for the past two years and has just recently been opened to the p_ iL~bblic. We finally got a chance to play the course last Sunday afternoon and was impressed by the rolling fairways and immense greens. Already the grass on the fairways is filling in while the large well-trapped greens are beginning to take on a pro- fessional look. The course has 14 greens and will eventually become an 18-hole championship course but for now play is allowed on only nine holes. Par on the present nine holes is 35 with six par four holes, one par five and two par threes. Golf Architect Dave Ferguson designed the course to championship specifications and every hole is a challenge with the par five 500-yard plus fifth hole and the 455-yard par four seventh hole being the most formidable. By the looks of the last couple of days we are in- store for some good golfing weather before the snow falls so all area golfers will have an oppor- tunity to test the new layout.
