G. Thompson trophy for grand cham- pion showman ir. the Hensall calf club show, Tuesday. He had won the junior division and then topped two senior competitors. Placing in order behind the Kippen lad were, from the left, Gerald Townsend, — T-A photo and Wilson. Brian Bob Kinsman Greys lose opener to stone town crew Some area residents will be enjoying the top beef from the Hensall calf club entries as local butchers outbid some of their larger competitors for the right to sell the top finishers from Tuesday's show, Exeter Frozen Foods paid the top price of 401/2 cents per pound for the top steer shown by Brian Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. D, Wilson, Kippen, The Exeter firm's bid was submitted by Bill Ellerington. It was perhaps ironical that Brian ended up with the most "chicken feed" from the night's auction, as his calf had been raised on a mixture containing laying mash. The top heifer in the show was owned by young Brian Pym, RR 3 Exeter, and Al Scholl of Al's Mar- ket in Hensall put in top bid for it. He paid 36 cents per pound and then minutes later had the successful bid of 34 cents for the second place heifer entered by Paul Swan. The second place steer owned by Carol Chalmers, RR 2 Kippen, was sold to Canadian Dressed Meats for 33 1/2 cents per pound. This was lower than the UFO price of 37 1/2 received by Doug Smale, Staffa, for the third place steer and also the 37 cents paid by Merner's Meat Market in Dashwood for the fourth place steer entered by Bob Smale. In the competition for best finish in the steer class, the entries placing behind the first four aforementioned were An- gelis Ryan, Mt. Cannel; Jack Christie, Mitchell; Ken Chalm- ers, RR 2 Kippen; and Les Cole- man, Kippen. A total of 41 entries competed in the steer class and 24 were in the heifer division topped by Brian Pym and Paul Swan. Placing in order behind those two lads were: Brenda Kerslake, Staff a; Kevin Kinsman, Kippen; Gregory Hargreaves, Brucefield; Brad Carnochan, Seaforth; Ann Morrissey, RR 2 Crediton; and Karan Sararas, Kippen. The top two heifers and steers were sent back to the ring for the grand championship in the finish class and Brian Wilson placed first, followed by Brian Pym, Carol Chalmers and Paul Swan.

Tigers win — Continued from page 6 Mitchell Wednesday, the visiting Legionnaires rallied to score four times in the top of the eighth, but the game was called because of darkness. Bob Webb who threw a fine game in his season debut in Mitchell two weeks ago, received better support from his mates and was in little trouble until dark- ness took over in the eighth. The 16 year-old right hander allowed but four hits over the first seven frames, two going to Mit- chell's veteran centre fielder Line Rohfritsch. The Tigers wasted little time hitting the score sheet as the first two batters, Art Rader and Jim Hayter, drew walks and scampered home on Stan Lovie's long single, Lovie was nipped at second trying to stretch his safety into a double. Connecting solidly for the first time in the game, the Dashwood boys extended their lead to five runs with three markers in the seventh. Consecutive singles by Hayter, Lovie, Bill Schad e, Whitey Denomme and Lorne Vin- cent completed the Tiger run total. Games this week: Sunday - Dashwood at Mitchell Zurich at Chesley St. Marys at Walkerton Tuesday - Mitchell at Zurich Wednesday - Walkerton at Dashwood Chesley at St. Marys The pitchers were in command as the southern division of the Huron Ladies' softball league opened at Exeter Community Park, Tuesday. In a hurling duel, St. Marys edged the Exeter Greys 6-1 in a well played contest. In other action, Goderich downed Bruce- field 8-3. Barbara Pfaff on the St. Marys mound fanned 16 batters, while Patti Robinson tossing for the Greys sent 10 visiting girls back to the bench by way of strike- outs. The outcome was in doubt right down to the wire as St. Marys scored four times in the top of the seventh to produce the win. The Greys were first to hit the score sheet, notching their only marker in their first trip to the plate. Jane Broderick drew a walk to open the contest and after the next two batters were fanned, she came home on Darlene Snell's double. St. Marys scored single runs in the fourth and fifth and held the slim one run margin until their final try at bat. Darlene Snell and Patti Robin- son were the only Greys to touch the offerings of Pfaff safely, each picking up a pair of hits. Joan Campbell was able to work the St. Marys right hander for a pair of walks. LADIES SCHEDULE The South Huron Intermediate Ladies' softball league consist- ing of teams from Goderich, Brucefield, St. Marys and Ex- eter swung into action this week. Following is the complete schedule: FAMILY AFFAIR The top prizes for the most gain put on the calves turned out to be a family affair among the children of Mr. and Mrs. James Chalmers, RR 2 Kippen. Carol Chalmers was an easy winner with a new Hensall club record of 630 pounds of gain. Brother Ken was second with 568 and Les Coleman was third with 540. Shirley Chalmers com- pleted the family domination with a fourth place finish. Following her in the top eight were: Beth passmor e, Bob Smale, Dale Passmore and Dar- lene Passmore. This was again a bit of a family affair for the children of Lorne and Almer Passmore, Bean planting nearly finished Soil moisture at present is quite adequate due to the heavy rains of the last few days. Spring grains and corn crops are de- veloping satisfactorily. The planting of white beans in the county is nearing com- pletion and growing conditions are normal. Some of the hay crop has been taken off in some locations and looks quite good due to the rains and warm temperature of the last few days. Some lodging of hay has taken place in the heavy crops but isn't serious. Pea harvest delayed some Rec league -- Continued from page 6 Mathers contributed a double. This set the stage for Bourne's circuit blow with one out in the bottom of the seventh. Woods and Larry Inglis shared the pitching win for the 69'ers while Don Bell and Ross Math- ers did the flinging for the Kins- men. JUNE 23 — Bruce,field at Goderich 24 — Goderich at St. Marys 27 — Brucefield at Exeter 28 —St. Marys at Goderich 30 — Exeter at Brucefield Despite a late start in seeding and a "little too much" rain in some parts of the area in the past week, Canadian Canners Ltd, are anticipating a heavy pea crop this year. Manager Jack Urquhart re- ported this week the pack should get underway around July 1, about one week later than normal. He said last week's rain was badly needed in some parts of the area and in only a few places was there too much. "The crops generally look pretty good," he told the T-A, He said the local canning plant is getting a fair response from prospective employees.
