The other Hensall hit was a single by Shane McKinnon in the top of the second.

New competitors this year, Jean Johns and Norma Chapman finished third and fourth g respectively. The controversy over the eligibility of several players in the Exeter and district Rec softball league apparently hasn't been completely cleared up. Over the past couple of weeks two of the teams in the eight-team league have brought in pitchers from outside the area which brought protests from some of the other clubs. At a meeting last week, the vote was five to three against the use of these pitchers. Despite the ruling the two in question were in their team's line-up Monday night and were instrumental in winning. Our own opinion is that eligibility for'play in the league should be restricted to players that do not play in any other organized league. This league was first formed quite a few years ago as a play-for-fun loop and to give men and boys without outstanding ball abilities a chance to play. We know both of the pitchers in question, Bob Robinson and Don Pickering and our stand is certainly not a personal one against these two as they are both good pitchers and good sports, In the game Monday night against Dashwood Industries, Robinson who also pitches for Lieury in the Ailsa Craig district league struck out eighteen batters in a seven inning game and we're sure this wasn't fun for the Dashwood batters to stand up at the plate and strike out continually in a game that is supposed to be played for the fun and enjoyment derived. The fans also would much rather see a game with some hitting and scoring going on to create a little excitement. We would hope that the league executive for next year's play comes up with a definite ruling on player eligibility and confines it to players that are not participating elsewhere. Shapton best in bowling The old saying that "practice makes perfect" seems to apply to the activities at the Exeter lawn bowling club over the past week. Saturday night, Wilf Shapton finished second in regular jitney play and Tuesday night be came back to cop first prize. Shapton scored two wins with a plus of 15 and aggregate of 30 to take Tuesday's first placing. Leone Brock was second with the same number of victories and a plus of 12 and aggregate of 27. Edna Caldwell was third, also with a plus of 12 but a lower aggregate of 24 to go with a double win. A new bowler this year, Glenn McKnight was fourth with two wins, a plus of 11 and aggregate of 27. Howard Ince was the top bowler Saturday night with two wins, a plus of 15 and aggregate of 28 to his credit. Wilf Shapton had a double win, a plus of 11 and aggregate of 34, good for his Greys split pair of games in Huron ladies league play The Exeter Greys dropped two games over the past week in the Huron ladies' softball league. The local girls were edged 11-10 by Shakespeare on the Exeter diamond, Thursday night and lost to Brucefield by a score of 145 in Brucefield, Tuesday night. Shakespeare error produced the eight Exeter runs in the fourth inning. Back-to-back doubles by Pam Vanderweil and Pat Down and Glenda Fisher's single sent the last two Grey runners home in the sixth. Pat Down went the distance on the mound for the Greys while the Shakespeare pitching chores were shared by Mary Ellen Gerber and Betty De Haan. The latter with a home run and single was the top batter for the winners. Other Exeter hits went to Lynne Farquhar and Joan Campbell. ONE BAD INNING The Brucefield Bombers exploded for nine runs in the second inning on their home diamond Tuesday and went on to down the Greys 14-5. The Exeter girls scored twice in the first inning on singles by Patti Robinson and Joan Campbell and Lynne Farquhar's two-bagger. Sandra Graham's home run was the big blow during the nine run Brucefield outburst in the second. The final three Exeter runs came in the top of the seventh as the result of consecutive singles by Ann Jorgenson, Lynne Farquhar and Pat Down. Marie Tieman started on the mound for the Greys and Marlene Parsons took over to start the Brucefield fifth. Single wins recorded by Rec ball loop clubs Action in the Exeter and district Rec softball league was confined to Monday night with all eight teams in action. At Crediton, Custom Trailers edged the Crediton Tigers 8-6 while on the Huron Park diamond, Dufferin Hotel trounced Dashwood Industries 13-3. In a doubleheader at Exeter Community Park, Grand Bend downed the junior Hawks 9.3 while the Legion edged the Kinsmen 6-5. Kyle Harrison went the distance on the Grand Bend mound to gain the pitching win while lefty Jim Bender making his first start for the Hawks took the loss. The Dashwood Tigers won only one of their three Huron-Perth baseball league games of the past week to even their season record at a game apiece, In an abbreviated July 1st holiday game the Tigers downed the Hensall Merchants 13-2 in a dame that was called in the fifth inning because of a heavy rainstorm, This was the last game for the Hensall club as manager Bob Lavery announced early this week that the club would suspend operations for the rest of the season. Friday night, the Dashwood club travelled to Thorndale and were on the wrong end of a 3.0 score and Monday night on the Dashwood diamond they dropped a 15-10 marathon contest to the Clinton Colts. A Saturday night exhibition game slated for the Dashwood park with the Stratford juniors supplying the opposition was also called off and has been rescheduled for Sunday afternoon, July 19. The following weekend a return game will be played in Stratford, In the next Huron-Perth start, the Dashwood boys travel to Mitchell for a Sunday contest. EARLY DEFICIT Against Clinton, Monday night, the Dashwood club found themselves behind the eight-ball early, The visitors took a 9-0 lead before the Tigers scored twice in the fourth to get on the scoreboard. A double by Bud Desjardine and singles from the bats of Stan Lovie and Dick Bedard produced the first Dashwood scores. After Clinton scored twice in the fifth, the Tigers came back with an eight run barrage in the bottom of the same inning to come within one run of tying the score. Two walks, three consecutive hit batsmen and singles delivered by Bob Hoffman and John Hayter along with three Clinton errors sent the eight Dashwood runners home in the fifth. Dick Bedard started on the mound for the Tigers and lefty Dave Ratz took over in the sixth but a total of eight fielding errors kept the pitchers in constant trouble. MIDGETS HELP When the Tigers travelled to Thorndale Friday night several regulars were missing and a couple of midgets filled the gap. Jim Neilsen was in left field and Brian Bestard handled the third base duties. While being held scoreless, losing 3-0 to Thorndale, the Tigers could collect only four hits, Bob Hoffman collected a double while Bill Schade picked up two singles and young Jim Neilsen collected the other one-base blow. three Custom runs in the top of the seventh. Eating is Fun While eating is not considered a sport it certainly should be enjoyable and at this time of the year barbecuing steak is a "popular sport" for a lot of men. We have received a release from the Home Economist department at MacDonald Institute at the University of Guelph giving tips on the proper barbecuing of cteak and would like to pass them along. I . Choose tender steak cuts with some fat interspersed throughout the lean. Loin, sirloin, T-bone, club or rib-eye steaks are the most suitable. Round or chuck steaks are less tender and should be marinated or tenderized before barbecuing. The steaks should be cut one inch or more thick; they are easier to manage and less likely to dry out. To prevent steaks from curling up at the edges, nick them in several places around the edge through the fat layer and slightly into the lean. 2. A well-made fire is important. The most satisfactory fuel is charcoal in the form of briquets or sticks. The charcoal may be ignited easily by pouring a small amount of charcoal lighting fluid over it. Charcoal lighting fluids are readily available and much safer than kerosene or other oils which tend to flare up. The coals are ready when they look ash-gray and there is no flame. To cook steaks, the fire should be hot. An easy way to tell if the heat is right is to hold your hand over the coals at the heights the food will be for cooking. Begin counting from one-thousand and one to one-thousand and three; if you can comfortably hold your hand over the coals for longer than this, the fire is not hot enough. The heat production can be increased by knocking the gray ash off the coals. Let the grill top heat; then spear some fat trimmings with a long-handled fork and rub over the hot grill. This keeps the steak from sticking. 3. To avoid loss of meat juices, do not salt the steak before cooking. Wait until you turn the steak to salt and pepper it. To turn the meat, use tongs or a turner. It is difficult to judge the barbecuing time since the amount of heat varies. The best method of determining when the meat is done, is to nick the meat through the edge toward the center and observe the color. For best flavor, the meat must be served immediately. Ball Teams Fold During the past week two district softball and baseball teams have folded for the season and dropped out of their regular schedules. The Huron Park ladies team entered in the Huron Ladies softball league ceased activities last week after failing to win any games. The other club to go is the Hensall Merchants. Playing coach and manager Bob Lavery announced early this week that he was withdrawing his team from the Huron-Perth Intermediate baseball loop. One of the main reasons for the Hensall withdrawal is lack of fan support. In several home games in recent weeks, monies taken in at the gate was not sufficient to pay the umpires that are appointed by the league executive. Another factor was the shortage of playing talent. The Hensall club failed to hit the win column in about seven games played this year. SCORE EARLY The Tigers scored four times in the first inning and were never headed as they downed Hensall 13-2, Wednesday in the abbreviated contest. Jim Hayter doubled and Bud Desjardine singled in the first inning and with the help of three Hensall miscues the Dashwood club picked up four runs. In the second frame, Desjardine hit safely again this time a double behind singles by Bob Hoffman, John Hay ter and Bill Schade to up the Dashwood run total to seven. The final six markers for the winner came in the third. Bud Desjardine again doubled for his FANNING SPREE Bob Robinson was at his best on the mound Monday night as the Dufferin Hotel swamped Dashwood Industries 13-3. The big right hander 'struck out eighteen opposition batters in the regular seven inning contest. The Dufferin boys scored two runs in the first inning and broke the game open with a five run rally in their third trip to the plate. Doubles by Colin Brewer and Gerry Riehl and a single from the bat of Hub Hunter sent the first two Dufferin runs home in the first. In the third, Hunter and Brewer doubled along with Lloyd Mathers and Don Carey while Don Appleby, Gerry Riehl and Bob Robinson socked singles to produce five more Dufferin scores. Four consecutive walks sent Lloyd Mathers across the plate in the fourth with theeighth run for the hotelmen. Singles by Riehl, Mathers and Larry Hern produced two runs in the fifth while three walks and hits by Appleb., and Hunter were responsible for the final three Dufferin runs in the bottom of the sixth. Dashwood Industries first hit the scoreboard in the fourth with two runs when they gained four straight walks along with a single delivered by Gerry Parsons. Don Campbell's double and singles by Doug McArthur and Larry Wein produced the final Dashwood run in the fifth. The other hits for the losers were a double and triple slammed by pitcher Dale Skinner. THREE RUN RALLY A three run rally in the top of the fifth inning proved to be the difference in an 8-6 Custom Trailer win over Crediton, Monday night. Each club scored twice in their first turn at the plate. Singles by Larry Willert and Bill Chipchace sent the first two Custom runs over the plate while hits by Bob Hodgins, Bob Parsons, Brian Hodgins and Jim Finkbeiner were responsible for the early Crediton scoring, Rick McDonald doubled with one out in the second and scored the third Custom run of the night. The eventual winners counted two more markers in the third on hits delivered by Larry Willert and Tom Dalrymple. Ron Grasdahl and Bob Parsons counted the third and fourth Crediton runs in the fourth. In the seventh the final runs were scored by Bob Hodgins and Murray Hodge without the aid of a hit. Doug Dalrymple tripled while Bill Chipchase and Larry Willert added singles to score the last CLOSE BATTLE In the 11-10 loss to Shakespeare, the Exeter girls fell behind 9-0 after Shakespeare had batted in the top of the fourth but bounced back with eight runs in the bottom of the same frame. The Greys counted twice in their half of the sixth to go in front by a single run but the visitors scored twice in the top of the seventh to move in front by 11-10 which turned out to be the final score. The Greys threatened in their half of the final inning but failed to push the tying marker across the plate. Sheila Willert walked to open the seventh and moved up on Janice Hayter's single but the rally ended right there. A total of four bases on balls along with two singles from the bat of Sheila Willert and one base knocks from Kathy Wells , Patti Robinson, Glenda Fisher and Pam Vanderweil in addition to a BALL SCHEDULE Due to the withdrawal of Huron Park from the Huron ladies' softball league the schedule has been re-drafted.
