FOR ALL GOOD WORTS By Ross H augh Hunt dotes bit confusin' Exeter Kinsmen have advanced to the semi-final round of the Rec softball league playoffs and are waiting for the other quarter- final set to be decided. The Lanes and Teen Town are tied at a game apiece and will meet in the deciding contest, tornight, Thursday, if ground conditions permit. In last week'S action, Kinsmen downed Cen- tralia 9-3 to .take the series in two straight and the Teen Town- ers edged the Lanes 4-1 to square their set. KIN ADVANCE A couple of two-run round- trippers powered the Kinsmen to their 9-3 win over Centralia, Thursday, to advance into the next round. Jim Hewitt put his team out in front in the first frame, crash- ing a long drive to the left field extremities, sending Chuck Mc- Kenzie home ahead of him. The other circuit clout came from the bat of George Pratt in the fourth with Jim Newby on at first as the result of a free pass. The winning Kin clan put to- gether four consecutive singles in their second time at bat to score a trio of runs. Dick Roelof- son, Bill Rowe, Lloyd Moore and pitcher Don Bell delivered the one base blows. ing single to right in the top of the fourth to send team-mate Ron Bogart racing home from Second to put the Lanes back in contention. A single, the second hit of the night for Bill Farquhar, started the Teeners on their Way in inning number six. Larry Inglis joined the base path parade as he beat a low throw to first and both runners romped home as Larry Willert's grounder was booted in the Lanes infield. Willert completed his trip around the sacks on a wild pitch. Larry Inglis of the winners and Lyle Little of the "bowlers" were the opposing pitchers and each allowed four hits. The remainder of the Kinsmen tallies were scored in single fashion in the third and seventh. Hewitt singled in the third and completed the cycle on similar hits by Rowe and Pratt, while the latter crossed the plate in the final stanza. The Centralia boys, trying to stave off elimination, scored one run in the second and added a pair in their fourth trip to the platter. Bob Lammie started the second with a single and moved around on a couple of walks and a fielder's choice. Centralia checker Harvey Rollings and Danny Shoebottom aided their club's cause in the fourth, circling the bases suc- cessfully. Don Bell went the distance on the Kinsmen mound, allowing but five hits and striking out nine over the seven inning distance. WIN IN SIXTH Three unearned runs in the bottom of the sixth gave the Teen Town nine a 4-1 victory over the Lanes, Thursday, and tied the quarter final series at a game apiece. The eventual winners scored a single run in the first and the Lanes fought back to knot the score in the fourth to produce a tie that held until the young- sters broke loose in the sixth. Bill Farquhar's double and a single from the bat of winning pitcher Larry Inglis put the kids out in front early.

T-A photo Local bowlers close out year More than 30 members of the Exeter Lawn bowling club took part in their organization's final official function of the year at the local greens, Saturday even- ing. Gathering at the club house at 6:30, they all enjoyed a delicious pot luck supper. Eight greens were in operation and the competition was keen throughout the evening. In fact, in several instances aggregate scores were referred to in order to break a tie in the wins and plus departments, and in one case this failed to break a stale- mate. Luther Reynolds was the top bowler of the night, winning twice and gathering a plus of 17. Mrs. Howard Ince and Fred Tilley were the competitors in a real deadlock for second spot having identical records of two wins, a plus of 14 and aggregate scores of 29. Wilf Goodwin and Russ Snell closed out the first five prize positions with two wins each and plus marks of 14 and 9. re- spectively, Although the season is official- ly closed, ardent bowlers will be at the greens for a friendly game any night the weather per- mits and visitors will be wel- come. GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CERTIFICATES A large number of entries, 155 to be exact, competed in the 13 classes available at the Ex- eter Saddle club's final open horse show of the year on Sun- day at the club grounds, west of Exeter.

It does hold ten yards!" 235-0530 Whoa back, hurry up Opposing skips at Saturday's lawn bowling action at the local greens are showing different reactions as a ball is rolling toward them. Standing, Wilfrid Shapton is trying to slow down the oncoming mis- sile, while his opponent Clarence Down is using vocal urging for a little more distance. T-A photo Followers of various sports, winter and summer, often dis- agree as to which game demands the most skill. Monday night, the controversy as to the merits of curling as opposed to lawn bowling was given a stiff test. In a battle that shapes up as an annual event, Art Cann of the winter sport and fast becoming an ard- ent bowler, challenged Fred Till- ey, president of the local bowling club to a trebles test. Cann gathered Dick Roelofson and Bill McLean from his array of curlers to take on Tilley and his summer sport aides of Har- old Simpson and Ray Mills. The six combatants decided a short game could be swayed by a lucky break or two and elected to go 21 ends in order to get a fair decision. The grudge match was a nip and tuck battle all the way, with first one side leading by a small margin and then the opposing trio would rally to move ahead by a short or two. When the smoke had finally cleared, Tilley's trundlers had edged Cann's collection 25-24. ANNOUNCEMENT Regulations released by the Department of Lands and Forests regarding the open seasons and hunting areas for the Province of Ontario seem to be rather confusing. First of all, in some local areas three types of licences are necessary before hunters can take to the fields and marshes, A provincial hunting permit is the first re- quirement, this gives one the authority to carry a shotgun or rifle. Next, in order to chase after migra- tory game birds, such as ducks and geese, a federal licence is mandatory. Then, if you wish to pursue rabbits and pheasants in the regulated townships of Hay and Stephen, a township licence is also neces- sary. In the two aforementioned townships sur- rounding Exeter and in the Counties of Middlesex and Perth, the season for rabbits and cottontails opens October 19 and continues to February 28 of next year. Hunters in the remaining portions of Hur- on County can take after rabbits anytime after Sep- tember 24 and go through to March 31. At noon on October 1, hunters in the south- ern districts of Ontario including this area get the green light to take a crack at geese, ducks and wood- cock. Dates during which pheasants may be hunted are also quite varied throughout the province. Lo- cally, in the regulated townships and the surround- ing counties of Perth and Middlesex, not quite one month will be allotted to hunt the elusive pheasants. The legal period will be from October 19 to Novem- ber 12, between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p,m. For the remaining portions of Huron County and the adjacent counties of . Bruce, Grey, Welling- ton and Waterloo, pheasant hunting is permissible from September 24 to December 15 inclusive. Also, the gun carrying regulations can become very confusing. The provincial gun licence that is necessary to carry a gun became valid on Tuesday of this week, but there isn't anything that you are allowed to shoot until at least Saturday. This means that you are allowed to carry a gun, but for a few days, if apprehended you will have to prove you were only out for exercise or target practice. Hunters confining their activities to the Town- ships of Hay and Stephen will get their first crack at fair game on October 1 when ducks, geese and woodcock come into season. There seems to be added confusion as to whether the Township of Usborne is included as a regulated township for hunting purposes. Accord- ing to the literature received from the Department of Lands and Forests, Usborne is to have the same status as Hay and Stephen, but Clerk Harry Strang reports he has heard nothing official on the matter. Strang intimated that the council is in favor of this move but has not passed the necessary by- law and is awaiting official notification from the Hespeler office of Lands and Forests. Going back to hunting regulations, any hunt- ers detected transgressing any of the provincial laws could have their hunting equipment seized. Only last Saturday, guns and rifles confiscated by department of lands and forests officials in the past four years were placed on the auction block at Hespeler. About 120 guns, along with hunting de- coys, telescopic sights and ammunition were sold to the highest bidder. The department coffers were in- creased by about $3,500 from this recent sale. WINNERS LOSE AT GATE A good example of where winners can lose was illustrated in Toronto this past week. The Toronto Maple Leafs won their second consecutive International baseball championship and for the third season went deeply into the red finan- daily. Under the capable managing of Dick Williams, the Leafs rebounded from a terrible start, when they were in last place in early June, to tie for second place and come on strong in the playoffs to win handily. The attendance at Maple Leaf Stadium for one of the final games with Rochester was under 2,000, a duplication of the crowds at most of their games throughout the season. It is hard to find the reasons behind the dis- mal showing of the fans in failing to support a top contender for the biggest part of the year. Some of the blame could possibly be laid to the inadequate parking facilities around the Fleet street park and the rather drab condition of the es- tablishment itself. Winning of the Governors Cup by the base- ball Leafs is certainly a feather in the cap of man- ager Dick Williams. This achievement could stand him in a good position as a future field boss of the parent Boston Red Sox. This move, if and when it comes, would re- store the famous name of Williams to Fenway Park. CANUCK ARMS SHARP September 6 proved to be a very rewarding day for Canadian boys performing in the National baseball league. On this particular day four products of Canadian sandlots, all pitchers, figured in vic- tories for their clubs. The best known in this area, Fergy Jenkins of Chatham, proved he deserved a starting role by pitching the Chicago Cubs to a 7-2 win over his former mates, the Philadelphia Phillies. Leo Duro- cher,the new Cub manager, had elevated Jenkins to a starting assignment after he had spent most of the season in the bull pen. A native of Burlington, Dennis Ribant, threw a six hitter as his New York Mets edged Cincinatti 3.2. To complete the successful day for the Ca- nucks, Ron Taylor of Toronto, a seasoned senior cir- cuit chucker came 'on for two innings of relief work for Houston and was followed by Claude Raymond. The latter who calls St. Jean, Quebec, home, tossed the last inning as the Astros downed the Cardinals 4.3. till llllrtlllllr011f Ulrli tOtfl YId I110Y111111 timolitrti ti • t It tit $tt Miles Tisdale manager of Exeter DiStrict Co-Opera- tive IS pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Fred North as store manager ef- fective immediately.
