HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1969-07-17, Page 6We're not talking through our hat. We used to make tires of $70. quality, selling them at our usual trade-discounted prices, But we stopped because, burly though they were (and costly to make), they weren't all that great - except on laden station-wagons or light trucks. Even then, the air-pressure had to be rigidly maintained. The slightest under-pressure caused them to bum themselves up. And who has money like that to burn? So te developed a better tire: Safety '99' *ion High Traction which has proved a superior value for average passenger cars. In fact, almost indestruc- tible even with abuse. It wasn't easy. A bit like breeding a thoroughbred. We put extra muscle where it counts - to turn out a tougher, faster tire. And we used Dupont Nylon the filament that's stronger than steellet soft as a cushion for your riding comfort. It's a big tire - maybe an inch taller than most others. More bite in the ' tread - to put real teeth into the expression 'you can stop on a dime'. More traction-to give you a good grip on a slippery strip. We think it's quite a tire, So do the owners of more than a million Safety 4 99' NylOns. They have proved to their own satisfaction it's a winner, and keep passing the word along. It's a good feeling to have that kind of faith in a tire, We have, So much that We back it with a firm money-back guarantee, But what about polyester/-you may ask. True, it does give better mileage but the ride is a bit harsher too. Even the much-touted glass-belted polyester, the ultimate in mileage-gaining, is not as consistently-cushioned a ride as nylon or straight polyester though it does smooth out as you accelerate and could prove to be the tire of the future, Gives OnC pause to ponder, Whatever you decide, do investigate before you invest. Your Canadian Tire stocks them all, We'd Welcome a little 'fire4alk' with you, Plittt INSTALLATION - for Safety '99' Nylon High TractiOn Tires.

HOCKEY IN THE SUMMER - This area is experiencing its first taste of hockey in July with the first week of activities at the Huron Park hockey school. Under the guidance of Paul Roach of Hockey Canada the sports training camp will run for six weeks. Above, one of the instructors Brian Gilmour of McGill University is showing Gary Campbell, Crediton and Steven Pfaff and Jim Webb 'of Exeter the proper part of the blade to use in shooting. T-A photo. Sluggers feature play in Rec softball league doubles and a pair of singles while Stan Lovie had a double, triple and homer in addition to two walks. Bill Bissett, Ron Crown, Paul Greenwood, Harvey Vincent and Barry Clarke each delivered two safeties while Lorne Vincent and Bill Bowden had one hit apiece. Ron Bogart and Bob Baynham each hit safely on two occasions for the Legion while Gerry Finnen added a double. Lorne Vincent was Grand Bend's winning pitcher and Gord Slaght absorbed the Legion loss. GRAND SLAMMER WINS A bases loaded homer from the bat of George Pratt in the top of the seventh proved to be the difference in the Kinsmen's 14-10 win over Huron Park, Thursday. Pratt's blast culminated a seven run Kin rally. Jim McDonald, Don Bell and Bob Rmsell each singled to open., the Kinsmen seventh and three walks set the stage for the game winning wallop. The scoring was low in the 1) early innings with Huron Park leading 2-1 after three frames of play. Brian Hogg, the third and winning pitcher for the Kinsmen scored the first run of the game in the third after reaching first on an error. Singles by Gary Riehl and Frank Boyle produced two Huron Park scores in the bottom of the same inning. Huron Park's hurler Don Appleby blasted a bases empty homer in the fourth. Brian Hogg, Jim Dingwell, George Pratt and Jim Russell singled to chase three Kin runs home in the fifth. Huron Park enjoyed their best inning in the fifth when they sent six runners home. A couple of walks and singles by Don Cooper, Doug McArthur, Rick Schroeder, Don Appleby and Larry Brintnell and Riehl's double were responsible for the Huron Park scoring. Bob Russell tripled and Dingwell delivered a single after two walks to score three Kin runs in the sixth. en Ince wins pairs at Clinton meet A member of the Exeter Lawn Bowling club was a winner at a men's pairs bowling tourney held at Clinton, Wednesday afternoon of last week. Howard Ince, unable to get a partner from his own club travelled to Clinton by himself and picked up a partner in Art Colson of the host club and went on to win three straight games to take the Hiram Walker trophy. Each of the men received a silver tray as their share of the top prize. In local jitney play, Mabel McKnight was the winner in each of Saturday and Tuesday night's regular action. Mrs. McKnight was a two game winner Saturday with a plus of 1'7 and aggregate of 32 to win Saturday's event and she won the same amount of games Tuesday combined with a plus of 10 and aggregate of 27 to repeat as champion, Hitting again featured most of the games played in the Exeter and district Rec softball league over the past week. Thursday night was a batter's paradise as Grand Bend trounced the Exeter Legion nine 16-3 at the summer resort while the Kinsmen outscored Huron Park 14-10. A Monday evening contest was a different story with the Legion edging Snell's Shell 4-3. WALKS, ERROR COSTLY A couple of walks and an error gave the Legion a run in the bottom of the sixth as they edged Snell's 4-3 Monday. In the first inning Jim Pinder and Cy Blommaert drew free passes to first and Bob Baynham cleaned the sacks with a triple to produce the first two Legion runs. Shell bounced back with a single run in their half of the first on Bill Bourne's double and a single from the bat of Bob Blackburn. The Legion upped their lead to 3-1 in the third on consecutive singles by Blommaert, Baynham and Ron Bogart. Snell's tied the score in the sixth with Blackburn's long home run chasing Bill Bourne who had singled home in front of him. The low scoring contest was a pitcher's battle between Legiori's Terry Wade and Jack Fuller of Snell's. BEND BOMB LEGION Every member of the Grand Bend club gained at least one hit as they bombarded the Legion 16-3, Thursday with a 19 hit attack. The Legion were out in front 3-1 after the top of the third before the Bend boys broke loose and scored six in the third, four in the fourth and five in the fifth. Dick Coulter collected two SAFETYWNYLON HIGH TRACTION I • 1.1 1/41 aid Playoff plans for H-P loop If any area residents, especially hockey fans wish to kill two birds with one stone sometime within the next couple of weeks they should visit the Huron Park arena, During this time, youngsters from all parts of Canada and several points south of the border are taking part in this area's first hockey and sports training camp, We were out to the Centralia camp site for a few moments last week and were impressed with the setup. First of all the temperature at the Huron Park arena is very refreshing and probably one of the most practical reasons for a visit. We have told our wife if she has any trouble locating us the district arena would be a good place to look. Besides the pleasant temperatures, the hockey teaching sessions are well worthwhile watching. We're sure any local coaches could gain a lot of helpful hints by spending a few hours this summer in the stands at the Centralia arena. The instructors are all hockey men with a solid background in physical education training from Canadian universities. Hockey isn't the only sport being taught. The boys in attendance get daily instruction in baseball, soccer and track and field. Paul Roach who is the director of the National Sport and Hockey Camp has had previous connections with Canada's national hockey team and has brought in top notch instructors. The young men in charge of instructing the boys are Bill Mahoney of McMaster, Brian Gilmour, McGill; Ron Mason, Lake Superior State College; Jack Costello, St. Clair College; Jim McDowell of Cornell and Warrant Officer George Angregon of the Canadian Forces Base at Camp Borden. Professor Bill L'Hereux of Western and Gaston Marcotte of Montreal will be in attendance periodically to give guest lectures. In charge of soccer lessons is Evans Tannis, a French teacher at St. Michael's College in Toronto and also the soccer coach there. Tannis, a native of Trinidad has brought his wife and small child along to Huron Park for the summer session and is in the men's residence close to the quarters occupied by the boys. One of the most dedicated instructors at the camp has to be Eddie Gillis who is handling the baseball coaching duties. Eddie is a physical education instructor with the Board of School Commissioners in Kentville, Nova Scotia. Eddie is also the chief Canadian scout for the St. Louis Cardinals and is a pleasure to talk to with his unending stories of baseball incidents. While Paul Roach is the director of the camp, his wife Margaret is probably the most versatile and valuable person in attendance. She is looking after office duties and this involves many different things when close to 50 boys are involved. When the boys arrive at camp, Mrs. Roach takes care of any spare money they have with them and then doles it out when required for purchases of candy and soft drinks. This may seem like a minor matter, but it really isn't when you can have that many boys race into the office and ask for maybe a quarter. After the first two weeks there has been only one instance of boys being home sick and this was cured very quickly. Mrs. Roach was planning to visit relatives .near Parkhill for the day so she took the youngster along and he came back raring to get back into camp training. Each day the boys are up at 7:30 in the morning and must complete breakfast and be at the arena for the first session at 9 o'clock. After an hour and a half of hockey practice it's the same amount of time on the soccer field and then they're ready for dinner. At 1:30 it's back to the arena, at 3 o'clock it's baseball training time and at 4:30 an hour of hockey and skating tests. Supper is scheduled for 5:30 and at 7 it's chalk talk and films, except for Wednesday nights when the students tackle staff members in an exhibition game of hockey. When their day is completed after almost 14 hours of activity, Roach says most of them have all kinds of energy left. "I don't know where they get all their vim and vigor. It sometimes makes us tired just to watch them," added the director. The boys that will number about 50 for most weeks of the camp are broken into two divisions and only half of them participate in the exact schedule we mentioned while the others are taking part in some of the other activities. While every week there are a few boys from the district that are attending as day students the second week of August will be the big one for district kids. During that time close to 20 boys from Exeter, Hensall, Lucan, Grand Bend and Mount Carmel will be in attendance. We have talked to a couple of boys and find they are very pleased with the camp to date and the excellent additional recreational activities that are available. One youngster from Windsor told us he attended a similar camp in the Toronto area last year and found the Centralia sessions better because of the smaller attendance, giving a better chance for more personal instruction. Baseball Quickies Neither rain, snow nor the peculiarities of professional baseball players could ever ruffle the self-possession of Bill Klem, the great umpire. One day the entire Pittsburgh team was riding him unmercifully, until Klem decided he had taken enough. He called time and strode to the dugout. By the time he got there, the Pirates lay slumped in all directions, snoring and wheezing as if asleep. Klem surveyed the situation for a moment, then. mated, "Okays But if any of you guys wake up before the game is over, you're going to be run right out of the park!"
