A triple by Fiero and doubles from the bats of Jim Russell and Ron Bogart produced a pair of Lanes markers in the seventh and brought Bell in to the rescue. He got the next three batters on a pop to short, a fly to deep centre and a strike-out. Virgil McNab started on the mound foe the winning Kinsmen and pitched steady ball until run- ning into trouble in the dying moments of the contest.

The "bowlers" scored in every inning but the first in ringing up the 19-7 decision. Shortstop Jim Russell swung the big bat for the winners, get- ting four hit$ and scor in g the same amount of runs. After pop- ping out in the first, he laced a double, two singles and a homer in his next four appearences at the dish.

Bring your proscription to MIDDLETON'S DRUGS Now open the Golden Bear defence stiffened and it was on a third down play that Desjardine went over on a quarterback sneak to put the Panthers on the scoreboard. The convert was missed and the score stood at 6-0. Early in the second quarter, Seaforth chalked up two of their game's total of three first downs to move the ball into Exeter ter- ritory, After a home team kick, the Panthers failed on two of- fensive plays and were forced to kick out. The ball went to mid- field where Gary Nicholson pick- ed it off and came all the way for a six pointer, to tie the score. The convert failed and the score was knotted at 6-6. Triebner's GUN SHOP A first quarter touchdown fail- ed to hold up as South Huron panthers dropped their first Hur- on-Perth conference footb all game in Seaforth Friday after- noon, 13-6. The season opens locally, Fri- day, with Goderich Collegiate in for a doubleheader. The junior game will start at 2:00 with the seniors clashing immediately afterward. The Golden Bears from Sea- forth Collegiate scored an un- converted touchdown early in the second period and completed the scoring with a converted major late in the third. Midway through the initial quarter, Paul Drysdale recover- ed a Seaforth fumble on their 27 to get the first break of the game for the P anther s. Ron Youngash gained three and a Bud Desjardine to Ron Durand pass brought the pigskin to the Sea- forth 14. From there an incom- plete pass and a short run fore- ed the Panthers to try a field goal attempt that went wide. Seaforth couldn't gain any yardage and were also forced into a kicking situation, but the boot only travelled to their own 17 where the SHDHS boys took over. On two plays, Desjardine and Ron Youngash were able to get down within two yards of pay dirt.

The Lanes tallied twice in the first and kept pecking away with one-run rallies in each of the second, third, fourth and fifth stanzas. The bowlers threatened in the seventh, scoring twice and had a runner on second with no one out. At this point, the Kin made a pitching switch, bringing Don Bell on in relief. The fast- balling right hander retired the first three men he faced to end the ball game. Doubles by Bill Gilfillan and Ron Bogart along with a walk and a Kinsmen error gave the Lanes a first inning 2-0 margin. The eventual winners got one back in the first, George Pratt scampered home on a passed ball after banging out a long triple. Gary Middleton poled a lead- off triple in the top of the sec- ond and scored on Lyle Little's ground out to put Lanes 3-1. The Kinsmen got to Lanes starter Lyle Little in the sec- ond and continued their onslaught on reliever Gord Slaght. Dick Roelofson cracked a single to open the frame. The next batter was retired and then eight Kin in a row reached the bases safe- ly. Ken Jackson drew a free ticket to first and Dave McCutcheon followed with a double to score two runs. Virgil McNab and Lloyd Moore drew walks to load the bases and Bill Rowe cleaned the paths with a home run to deep centre. Pratt followed with his second hit of the game, a single to left, Jim Hewitt walked and Roelofson smashed a double, his second safety of the inning, to score two more. Jackson and Dave McCutcheon reached first as the result of a hit batsman and a walk, respectively, Roelofson and Jackson crossed the scoring sta- tion before the, inning ended. Hal Flaro slashed a low liner just inside the hag at third that was good for three bases to open inning number three and scored on a passed ball to give the Lanes their fourth marker of the game. A ground ball hit by Gary Mid- dleton eluded the Kin infield and outfield to allow the lanky Lanes outer guardian to complete the cycle easily.

COMPLETE STOCK OF GUNS AT REDUCED PRICES (except Remington) Evenings Only Monday to Friday All Day Saturday By BILL BATTEN Sports fans who have read through Ross Haugh's column on this page will note with much concern that no prediction has been made on the outcome of the 1966 World Series. This will certainly be a dis- aster to those of us who rely on his predictions before placing any bets on the line — bets of course that favour the team picked as losers by the sports editor. It is only natural that he should attempt to bypass the issue in view of his miserable prognosti- cations in recent years. However, by methods available to the editor, we have managed to coax out of Haugh that the Balti- more Orioles will win the event in seven games. Seems he gazed into a crystal ball and saw some birds singing or something. Anyhow, that's it fans.

Lady curlers eat, organize The Exeter Ladies' Curling Club opened the new season with a pot luck supper and meeting at the club, Sept. 26. The President, Mrs. H. Strang, welcomed the members. Ladies curling is expected to start Tues. Nov. 8. :7-1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111i11111111111111117, The weather may still be mild, but the hockey season is just around the corner. The first meeting of the Exeter Minor Hockey Association was held last Thursday. Registration for all minor hockey players will be held Saturday, Oct. 15 and 22 at 10 o'clock in the morning of both days. Fees will be up one dollar per boy for the coming year. Aspiring hockey players of squirt age will be charged four dollars and all others from pee wee and over will pay six dollars to par- ticipate in the minor ice program for 1966-67. Arena manager Alvin Willert reports that the ice machine at the arena will be turned on Sat., Oct. 22 and he should have a sheet of ice ready by the Monday night. Play in the Shamrock junior league is ex- pected to start about the middle of November which should give the local Hawks entry an ample prac- tice period and possibly time for an exhibition con- test or two. The Shamrock schedule is being drawn up this week by Stan Moore of Strathroy, Don Buddo of Il- derton continues as convener of the Shamrock group and Alvin Willert will be the league statistician. If present plans materialize, six teams will compete in league play. Port Huron, Strathroy, Point Edward, Belmont, Exeter and a combined entry from Mt* Brydges and Glencoe will do battle in probably a triple schedule to give each club 15 home games. Hopes for a good Exeter Hawks club are high at the moment. Most of last year's members are back in addition to two or three locals who have played in other centres in the last couple of years. Gary Parsons and Mike Cushman, teammates on the Exe- ter midgets' Ontario finalists in the 63-64 season will be back after a year or two in junior "B" ranks. Craig Chapman, who played with the Strath- roy Rockets of the Western Junior league, may pos- sibly be back with the Hawks. Several members of the midgets will also be available for duty with the Hawks if needed, ALREADY ON ICE The first Exeter hockey team to hit the ice lanes is the Kinsmen midget club. Coached by Gard Baynham and Red Loader, the youngsters worked out in Stratford over the weekend. The local club is preparing for their participa- tion in a Centennial tournament to be completed in 1967. Five teams have entered from Western Ontario and must have an area winner by November 20. Forest, St. Marys, Wingham and Harriston will compete with the locals for the right to meet a south- ern winner from Sarnia, Chatham or Riverside by Dec. 14. A meeting is being planned for this week to arrange a schedule for the five area teams. During Christmas week, Walkerton will be the scene of a tourney bringing together all the survivors west of Toronto. All district tournament winners will meet in the grand championship to be held in King- ston during the Easter holidays of 1967. All clubs entered in this Centennial tourna- ment must have affiliation with the Ontario Minor Hockey Association. In Exeter's case, the club may be fortified by six additional players from other cen- tres, provided the combined population totals do not exceed 30,000. Differences have been patched up between the Western Ontario Athletic Association and the OMHA and for the coming season, WOAA repre- sentatives will have the opportunity to advance in Ontario playdowns. Last year any clubs from the Western organ- ization that wished to compete in provincial playoffs were forced to make separate entry to the OMI-IA. ANYONE FOR ARCHERY ? Rec Director Alvin Willert asks us to pass along a request that if there are any adults inter- ested in taking up archery as a hobby to contact him or Terry McCauley at the Ausable Conservation of- fice. McCauley had made the original request to RAP to organize an archery program. At the mo- ment, only youngsters have shown any interest in the venture, If adults do signify their intentions of becom- ing archery enthusiasts, the gym of the arena would probably be used for training purposes. As a start, films will be shown to get the program under way. = . = 11111111111111111111111111111111111111811111111111111111111111111111111111111111UM111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 FALTER AT THE WIRE A racing term could be quite applicable to our selections as to who would win the pennants in the baseball leagues and meet in the World Series. "Nipped at the wire" could apply to the Pittsburgh Pirates and Detroit Tigers. Both clubs slipped badly in the last three days and had to settle for third place. Although the Tigers were not in the pennant race in the last week, the Bucs from the Smoky City had a chance to pull the National flag out of the fire as late as Saturday afternoon. In looking over the final standings, several interesting items can be gleaned. First of all, the fall of the New York Yankees is probably the most aston- ishing of all. The powerhouse club of the American league only a few years back, finished in the cellar. The last time the Yanks had fallen so lowly was away back in 1912. One of the reasons for the New York down- fall could be the lack of good younger players com- ing up in their farm system, When a club is going strong and at, the top, there could be a tendency to let up a bit in developing the youngsters, Then, all of a sudden, you find the stars beginning to fade and the replacements not the best quality, While the Yankee fortunes are down, those of the Kansas City Athletics are improving immense- ly. Known as the Yankee cousins, the Athletics are on the way up and in the season just ended nailed down seventh spot in a ten-team loop. The three best reasons for the upswing of the A's are probably Charley Finley, Alvin Dark and the young pitching staff, First of all, Finley, owner of the club, had a personal hand in gathering most of the promising young hurlers on the A's roster. Three years back, he was out beating the bushes, corralling free agents with generous bonuses. Dark, a long-time standout infielder with the New York Giants, is a shrewd and able manager and quite capable of getting the best out of a group of youngsters, back and forth that gained little for either club, the second Sea- forth punt was taken on the South Huron 42 and the Panthers start- ed to move. They progressed to the Seaforth 11 in eight plays but time ran out in the half. Drysdale brought the kickback to his own 48 and the attack was under way. After an incompleted pass, Bud Desjardine gained 11 through the middle to move the yard sticks. Ron Youngashplung- ed for six more and brother Al took over for 11 and moved the Panthers down to the Seaforth 34 and another first down. Al Youngash crashed down to the 25 and Desjardine continued the march with an off-tackle run to the Bears' 12. Two ground plays gained only a yard as the gun went off to end the first half of play. The Panthers received the op- ening kick-off in the second half and had to resort to kicking af- ter gaining only four yards. Play swayed back and forth on three exchange of punts until the third Seaforth boot was bobbled in the Panther backfield and an alert Bear fell on it on the South Huron three yard stripe. From this close in point, Doug Dalrymple plunged across on the second try and Larry Lane split the uprights with the convert try and the bears were in front 13-6. After the major score, Seaforth kicked to the Panthers 27. The YOungash boys combined on three running plays to move back to their own 49. Two additional plays failed to gain necessary yardage and the Panthers kicked to the Seaforth 16 as the quarter ended. The ball stayed in the Seaforth end of the field for the final 15 minutes but the Panthers were unable to get over the goal line. The Golden Bears picked up seven yards in two plays and were forced into a kicking situation, but the punt never materialized. The pass from centre went as- tray and the Bogart coached grid- ders took over on the Seaforth 17. A couple of busted plays and an unsuccessful pass stopped the Panther progress, but a Seaforth penalty gave the ball right back to South Huron and a first down on the ten. Paul Mason, in at quarterback, gained two on the next play, but the locals lost possession on a succeeding fumble. In the next eight minutes neither team was able to mount much of an attack as play was confined to the Sea- forth end, With less than two minutes re- maining on the clock, a Paul Mason to Bud Desjardine pass toward the left sidelines picked up 15 yards to the Seaforth 29. Three successive heaves through the air failed and the Bears took over and ran out the clock. On the final toss, Ron Durand made a fine try for the ball thrown into the right flat, but just failed to gain possession. The Panthers outrushed Sea- forth 126 to 59 in total offense and gained the Most first downs, nine to three. It was the first Seaforth win in two years and their scoring output of 13 points was more than they could amass in six games last year. ee 5 2 4 3 7 0 0 MIXED LEAGUES 8 GU (A. Frayne 664) 5 BL (R.
