The second annual event, sort of an Old Boys Reunion will get underway late Friday af- ternoon, continue through a complete day of ac- tivities Saturday and probably conclude in the wee hours of Sunday morning. Nearly all of the townsfolk and many residents of the nearby farming communities are pitching in to ensure a successful program. Committees are working hard on every section of the Days to iron out kinks which appeared in last year's first presentation. Sports will again play a big part in the two-day event with the tug-of-war promising to provide plenty of thrills and excitement. The defending tug-of-war champions, the Shipka Bulldogs will have to be at their very best to defend their crown. Invaders from the north will be in Saturday's pulling competition and from all reports they are strong. George Tiernan, co-chairman of the sports committee with Glenn Webb told us Monday night that Cargill, champs of Bruce county have entered and will be travelling to Dashwood by bus with a load of enthusiastic supporters. We have heard from reliable sources that the Cargill team pulls against a team of horses in prac- tice sessions. Sounds like a good way to get top notch opposition. The first round of the tug-of-war battles will start around four o'clock. At the moment only three teams have entered but Webb and Tiernan hope to have a fourth competitor by Saturday to ensure an even playoff. The first rounds will be a two-out-of-three pulls duration. Each team will be allowed eight men to do the pulling. An official coach will be allowed to give all the directions he deems necessary. After supper the finals will be staged, again of a two-out-of-three variety. The third team definitely to be in action in addition to Shipka and Cargill will be Jack Guenther's Strongmen. Saturday night sport action will pit Lieury against the Exeter softball all-stars. All in all, Friedsburg Days should be bigger and better than ever. See you in Dashwood, Friday and Saturday. Friday night activities include a challenge soft- ball game between rivals from neighbouring com- munities of Shipka and Mount Carmel. While eating is probably not listed as a sport, Friedsburg Days get off and running Friday night with sauerkraut, spare ribs and sausages available to all. We had a sample of the sauerkraut Monday night and with the Dashwood reputation for sausage we know the appetites of all invaders should be well taken care of. Saturday's activities get rolling early in the af- ternoon with a mammoth parade. Last year's parade was the best you could ever hope to witness in a small town and the 1972 version promises to be even better. The middle of the afternoon hours will be filled with an exhibition baseball game featuring the Dash- wood bantams. This will allow the tug-of-warriors to get their muscles flexed and ready to go. We almost forgot the horse shoe tournament which will be going continuously Saturday afternoon with top throwers from all parts of Western Ontario competing. Let's swim With a little more help from the weatherman, activities at the Exeter swimming pool should be into full swing next week especially with all school students out on the loose for the summer. Recreation director AlvinWillert asksus toadvise that starting next week open swimming hours will be from two to four in the afternoon and 7.30 to 9 p.m. in the evening. For the rest of this week it's after school swimming from 3.30 to 5 p.m. Adult swimming lessons get underway at the pool Monday night with a charge of fifty cents per evening. They will go weekly Monday through Thursday. Open swimming charges will be 15 cents for each outing for those 16 years of age and under and 30 cents for persons 17 or older. Season tickets for swimming go on sale at the pool this week and include a few changes in prices from last year. The charge for those 16 years and under will be $7.50 with a $10 fee for those 17 and over. The family plan will be in effect for $20. Last year the charge was $5 up to 14 years of age and $7.50 for swimmers 15 years and older with the same $20 charge for a family group. Baseball Quiz On the suggestion of a couple of our readers (probably all of them) we are going to run a baseball quiz for the balance of the summer. One week we will ask two questions and in the following column provide the answers. So here goes for this week. Which parks in the American and National baseball leagues are the smallest as far as seating capacity are concerned? The home park of the Detroit Tigers is now called Tiger Stadium and before that Briggs Stadium. What was the name of the first Tiger park? High salaries With Bobby Hull expected to sign this week with the Winnipeg Jets for several million dollars, it prompted us to do a little checking to find how much sports stars of other eras received. Babe Ruth has to be one of the all-time greats in baseball so his salary should be a good comparison. Most people will probably be surprised to learn Ruth's salary in the season of 1932 was $80,000 with an added bonus of $2,500. An area harness racing en- thusiast for more than 40 years has fulfilled a long-time am- bition. Jack Morrissey of Crediton is now a full-time presiding judge Crediton gets midget win In the only midget action of the week in the district in the Western Ontario Athletic Association, Crediton downed Exeter by a 12 - 3 count in Exeter, Wednesday night. Each team scored twice in the first inning and then Crediton broke the game open with a seven run outburst in the third frame. Brian Tuckey and Perry Stover singled and scored for Exeter in the opening inning after Bob Heywood and Kevin Bestard counted for Crediton as the result of Bill Hodge's single. Keith Davey's two bagger and singles by Ron Funston, Bob Heywood and Bill Hodge provided most of the power for the seven run Crediton rally in the third. Hodge's third, straight safety sent Rodger Finkbeiner home for the winners in the fourth and Rick Bowers and Ron Funston scored the final Crediton runs in the seventh. The final Exeter marker came in the fifth when Brad Gregus tripled and came in to score on a Crediton fielding miscue. Rick Bowers was the winning pitcher for Crediton giving up but five well scattered hits while fanning nine. John Wuerth went the distance for the losers. Weather wins over bowlers The weatherman curtailed activities at the Exeter lawn bowling club this week. In the only jitney which was played Tuesday night, Elizabeth Lamport finished in first place for the third time this year. Mrs, Lamport headed the competitors with two wins, a plus of 20 and aggregate of 31. Next in line came Alvin Pym with a plus of 18 and 32 aggregate to go with a double win. A new member in the club this year, Charlie Hendy was third with two victories, a plus of 11 and aggregate of 31. Finishing fourth and fifth, respectively were Lillian Pym and Glenn McKnight. Some members of the local club will be participating in holiday tournaments in Aylmer and Goderich over the upcoming weekend. Good turnout for men's nite The regular men's nite at the Ausable golf course attracted more than 30 golfers Tuesday night. Joe Fulop emerged as the low gross winner with a score of 76. Next in line with an 82 was Bryan Propozanski. Following in order were Doug Pinder, Bob White and Gerry Smith. A real battle took place for the low net prize with Don Gifford and Doug Ellison finishing with equal scores of 72. Earl Knoblauch was close behind with a 73 while Bob Callingham and Walt Romaniuk each turned in net scores of 74. and Bradley Johns; discus - Tuck, Lovell, Case; triple jump - Tuck, Abbott, Nelson; javelin - Tuck, Lovell, Neil Stephens; long jump - Tuck, Nelson, Johns. with the Canadian Trotting Association and will be spending three months later this summer in Western Canada. Although working part-time as a racing judge for about nine years, Morrissey is now under contract to the C.T.A. from April 1 to December 1 of each racing year, His trip to the west will include presiding at two top notch tracks. He starts at Edmonton on August 16 and will then move to JACK MORRISSEY Assiniboia Downs at Winnipeg, September 16 and continue until November 14, Until the time comes for the western trip, Morrissey will be busy six days per week at Western Ontario tracks. His schedule for July has stops in Woodstock, Tuesday; Owen Sound, Wednesday; Orangeville, Thursday; Elmira, Friday; Hanover, Saturday and back to Orangeville Sunday afternoon. In 1971 he was presiding judge at Dresden, Elmira, Clinton and Goderich. While unable to see his own horses in action very often due to the busy schedule as a presiding judge, Morrissey maintains a stable of four pacers. The pride of the Morrissey string is Philbuck Grattan, who has earned more than $11,000 this year. Others in the stable are Super Roy, Chris Gold and a green colt named Nancy's Roy. As a presiding judge, he is responsible for handling of all inquiries, objections and testing of horses. At most meets, all winners along with eight or nine other horses picked at random by the judges are tested. Morrissey said during his judging career he has found only four or five positive reactions from tests.
