Competition was keen at the
weekly session of the Ausaule

with four of the eighteen per-

front. Cronyn and. Fern Dougali

side was out to give the Exeter
gals the victory.
Patti Robinson and June Chut-
er hooked up in a tight pitchers'
battle and the Greys spurt in the
sixth proved to be the difference.

for top spot.
Lloyd Cushman, Jim Russell,
Jacques Verreault and Wally
Burton each finished with a net
total of 72. Russell would have
probably won the event had he not
shown loyalty to his hockey Idol,

"big nine" to complete the
seventh bole.
Verreault compiled the lowest
gross score of the night, turning
in a 78.

The new lights at Exeter Com-

with the Greys scoring all of

Huron-Perth loop games over the
past week. The Kings romped

HURON-PERTH STANDING
Vets have black night
The weather over the past few weeks has
been anything but suitable for hockey, but several
area youngsters have been attending hockey schools
in various parts of the country to improve their
winter time skills.
When most boys are at the beach. absorbing
the sun, these ambitious youngsters are spending
about four hours a day in actual hockey drills on the
ice.
Don Farrell, of (TB Centralia and a member
of last year's Exeter bantam club, is having a full
summer of ice activity. Don \rill be spending six
weeks in all at the Fenelon Falls camp of the Stukus
brothers, Bill and Frank. In addition to getting
schooling in his own age class, he is helping as a
junior counsellor with the younger boys.
Peter Kleinstiver of Dashwood, and a member
of the 1965-66 Exeter Pee Wees, is now in the midst
of a three-week sojourn at the same school. Milt
Schmidt is the chief instructor and is getting coach-
ing assistance from Ed Chadwick and Allan Stanley.
One of the largest instructional hockey schools
in Ontario is the Tam 0' Shanter operated in the
Toronto area by Harry Watson. Frank and Peter
Mahovolich, Eddie Shack and Kent Douglas are some
of the instructors and get into actual scrimmage
with the older boys.
Graham Hern, a member of the 1963 Exeter
Pee Wees, winners of the "C" title in the Young
Canada tournament in Goderich and now living in
Milton attended the Tam 0' Shanter for several
weeks.
Another member of the last edition of the
local Pee Wees, goalie Jim Brown of CFB Centralia,
spent the past week at Bracebridge in session with
45 other youngsters at an instructional camp super-
vised by Roger Crozier of the Detroit Red Wings.
Brown, a 12-year-old, came away with the award as
the best player in the entire camp.
GIRLS SCORE OFTEN
In last week's issue of the T-A, it was men-
tioned that the Exeter Greys probably set a modern
softball scoring record by notching 17 runs in one
inning. This week we read of a couple of scores in
an Eastern Ontario ladies' loop that reached pre-
posterous figures.
The Codrington Jayettes, in the Trenton area,
defeated Brighton 64-1 and 94-6, in believe-it-or-not,
five-inning games. Wouldn't the Toronto Argonauts
loved to have had scores like that for two of their
games last year?
In high scoring contests as these, it was prob-
ably more a case of the batters tiring out than the
pitchers. One of the stars of the winning Codring-
ton club, Kathy Massey, .clouted five home runs in
the lowest scoring tilt of the two.
Don Mousseau and Dick Ben-
nett shared the losing Legion
pitching chores and Chub Ed-
wards led the losing batting at-
tack, notching a single and double
in three efforts at the pan.
Norma Coleman shot the low
score at the weekly outing of the
Exeter Ladies' Golf Club, Tues-
day evening. Ida S weitzer used the
most drives as 15 members tour-
ed the nine-hole course.
Members of the local ladies'
club have accepted an invitation
to play an exhibition round in
Stratford, August 11.
The new floodlights at Exeter
Community Park were switched
on for the first time Monday
night for an actual game, but the
officials must have forgotten to
tell the Exeter Legion.
Playing as if they were in the
dark, the Vets succumbed to the
Bowling Lanes by a 15-1 count.
In an earlier contest the same
evening, the Kinsmen edged the
up and coming Teen Towners
10-8 in extra innings.
BELL TRIPS TEENERS
Relief pitcher Don Bell was
the big cog in the Kinsmen ex-
citing 10-8 win over Teen Town.
The fire-balling righ t-hander
took- over the Kin mound in the
sixth, striking out seven in the
balance of the game, and deliver-
ing a home run in the ninth with
Ken Jackson aboard to sew up
the win.
Catcher George Pratt was a
key factor in the winning batting
barrage, singling home two run-
ners in the first and delivering
a triple in the fourth.

Ladies show way
The ladies took the spotlight
at Tuesday's weekly outing of the
Exeter Lawn bowling club at the
local green.
Mabel McKnight compiled the
best record of the evening, two
wins and a plus of 19, Following
closely in second spot was Lillian
Pym with two wins and a plus of
17.
A plus of 14 and two wins
moved Verne Smith into third
place, while Ray Smith and Harry
MeenS tied for the next position
with two wins and 13.
as the result of a double from
the bat of Gord Strang.
Three consecutive Legion mis-
cues in the fourth loaded the
bases and set the steps for a
grand slam home run by Ron
Bogart.
Gord Slaght went the distance
on the Lanes' mound, tossing a
neat four hitter and aided his
own cause with a long round-
tripper in the bottom of the
sixth. Slaght recorded seven
strike-outs over the seven inn-
ing stretch.
Little and Gilfillan of the win-
ners had the distinction of reach-
ing the base paths in every one
of their five trips to the dish
and scored on four occasions.
Joe Wooden and Jim Russell
gathered the most "bowler" hits,
with three bingles apiece,
