Count on us far L'• Gas Sdrvrer Hotson Propane 238-2005 GRAND BEND The summer sports season, and we hope warm weather, is with us to stay for awhile. Final organiza- tion of baseball, softball, golf, swimming and other playground activities is being wrapped up this week. Rec Director Alvin Willert reports that the local swimming pool will be open for action on June 19 and three swimming instructors have been ap- pointed for the summer. Marion Walker returns as chief instructress along with Betty McCallum from last year's staff. The new appointee is Terri Laugh- ton of town, giving the the pool three highly quali- fied instructors. Willert said "We are fortunate to obtain the services of these three outstanding young ladies, who also qualify for lifeguard duty." Swim- ming lessons will begin on July 5 and continue through the months of July and August. The summer playground program will begin at Exeter Community Park on July 4 and will run to August 14 with a full daily menu of recreation ac- tivities. Again sponsored by the Exeter Kinsmen club, the annual program will be handled by six super- visors who are being appointed this week. Goderich summer camp will be the scene of the final week of activities in the form of the annual Kin camp on the shores of Lake Huron from August 7 to 14. In minor baseball activity in Exeter, bantam and pee wee teams have been entered in WOAA and OBA ranks. The pee wee boys will be coached by Gary Middleton and Bill MacLean and the bantams at the moment are in the care of Alvin Willert until a permanent coach is appointed. Eleven teams have been organized in house league softball play, made up of a four-team pee wee boys' loop, a four-club girls' group of the same age and three teams in a tadpole or mite age bracket. In girls' softball play, the Huron league has again been organized with two area entries, Exeter Greys and Hensall competing with Goderich, Win- throp, St. Marys, Brussels and Brucefield. Up Hensall way, Peter McNaughton reports the only bean-town entry in WOAA competition is a midget ball club to be handled by Tom Dalrymple and John Henderson. A house league to take care of the pee wee age boys will be operated on Saturdays and after school. WELCOME BACK, JIM We would like to welcome an old friend back to the post of recreation director for the town of Lucan. Jim Burt arrived in the Irish community last week to again handle the reins for all recreational activities in that area. Jim is back after a stint of one year in Picton and we are sure his many friends will be glad to see him back. While speaking of Lu- can, we understand minor ball teams of pee wee, bantam and midget varieties have been entered in the Western Ontario Association. HURON-PERTH READY Due to a misunderstanding of a week ago, the schedule makers of the Huron-Perth baseball loop are meeting tonight, Thursday, in Hensall to set the dates for the coming season. As reported earlier clubs from Dashwood, Zurich, Mitchell and Walkerton are raring to go and rumors have a pos- sible entry from Chesley. READYING BALL LIGHTS Installation of the floodlights at Exeter Com- munity Park is expected to start this week. The poles are at the site and some of the lighting fixtures are here and the balance will arrive by the weekend. Completion of the project is expected within two weeks. Committee chairman Gil Burrows advises that a large percentage of the necessary monies has been secured and the remainder is expected in ad- ditional donations. At the moment more than $1800 is in the coffers, with a final objective of approxi- mately $2200. Any further contributions may be left with Dave Cross at Victoria and Grey Trust. Next week we will cover the balance of the summer sports programs, namely, golf, lawn bowl- ing, motorcycle clubs, boating, fishing, etc. SLOW DOWN WILLS Maury Wills, the National league base-stealing champion may be slowing down a bit. On May 18 he was stopped for driving his car too slowly. Police halted Wills on the Los Angeles Harbor free- way for driving 45 miles an hour in the last lane of a 55-mph zone. He was released after signing a speed- ing citation. TRIBUTE TO CASEY The New York Mets have hit on a "natural" theme for their annual Old Timers' Day this year. With the date set for July 30, they're making it a tribute to Casey Stengel, their former manager. It will be the 01' Perfesser's seventy-sixth birthday. What could be more fitting? The occasion will bring together the teams of the 1950 All-Star game, with Casey in the role of American League manager. Casey was the actual A.L. manager of that game, the first time he ever skippered a team in the midsum- mer affair. Since the Mets meet the Cubs in a regular- season game that day, Leo Durocher will be invited to serve as manager of the opposing N.L. club. In the 1950 contest, the late Bert Shotton managed the senior circuit stars. For Stengel, it will mark his first appearance in a uniform since he suffered his hip fracture last July 25 that forced him into retirement. The 1950 game was the longest in All-Star history, being played at Comiskey Park in Chicago, and go- ing 14 innings before the Nl'ers won it, 4-3, on a home run by Red Schoendienst. It was the same game that Ted Williams singled in the eighth inning without knowing he had broken his elbow in the first while catching Ralph Kiner's long fly against the left field wall. Some of the other great names who partici- pated in that classic were American leaguers Joe Di- maggio, Larry Doby, Phil Rizzuto, Bobby Doerr, Dom Dimaggio, Ferris Fain, Allie Reynolds, Bob Lemon, Vic Raschi and Bob Feller. Representing the National were Roy Campanella, Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese, Duke Snider; Warren Spahn, Stan Musial, Enos Slaughter, Larry Jansen, Ewell Blackwell and Robin Roberts. Stengel will be coming to New York a little earlier to be inducted with Williams into the flail of Fanie on July 25 at Cooperstown.
