The Home of Guardian Maintenance Summer is usually the time for swimming, baseball and a host of other activities ; For an in- creasing number of boys, however, the summer represents a chance to attend a hockey school in hopes of improving their hockey skills. There are a number of hockey schools operating in the area this summer. At St. Mary's the school is filled while in London Large fish is 'landed' Fish stories are usually a dime a dozen during the summer time, Exeter OPP Constable Bill Lewis and his wife Sandy are telling an almost unbelievable story, but, they have pictures to prove it. The first sturgeon ever caught in Penetang Bay was landed by Mrs. Lewis' father, Len Barnes of Penetang. Well, the fish wasn't actually landed. It was dragged to shore. Why? It weighed 104 pounds and measured 73 inches in length. The fish was caught on Friday, July 14 at about 7:30 p.m. by Mr. Barnes from a 14-foot boat. He was accompanied by his wife. The sturgeon was lured to the 15- pound test line of Mr. Barnes by an inch and a half minnow. The boat was towed for about a mile by the sturgeon before being controlled, When Mrs. Barnes saw the size of the fish she told her husband, "You're not bringing that fish in the boat with me." The enormous fish was finally gaffed and dragged behind the boat back to shore. Word soon spread about the large fish being caught and Saturday more than 500 people dropped in to have a look. A large picnic table was used to clean the fish. Mrs. Lewis said, "All our friends, neighbours and relatives came around and took home a piece of the fish." Second victory for Brian Taylor For the second consecutive week, Brian Taylor won the 14 years of age and over title in the Ausable golf junior tourney. Taylor fired an 87 to win, Ken Pinder was • the winner for youngsters under 14. In Tuesday's regular men's nite play, Bill Bourne fired an 80 to take low gross honors. Next in line came Derry Boyle and Mike Cushman with respective scores of 86 and 92, Brian Probizanski's 74 was the low net score with Don Gifford and Lloyd Cushman following in that order. Butch Spencer was named the most honest golfer. BOYS' MIDGET Fastball Tournament at Kirkton Athletic Field Sunday, August 6 Monday, August 7 f Details in next weeks paper The next few days are very important for the Exeter Expos as far as playoff hopes in the 1-furon-Perth Intermediate baseball league are concerned. The Expos in their first year in the league have come to life recently and have a chance of finishing second in the southern division. The Exeter club to date has three wins and a tie while Thorndale and Arva each have four wins to their credit. Exeter was in Arva last night Wednesday for a very important contest and will be at Exeter Community Park Sunday af- ternoon at two o'clock to take on Thorndale. In between, they travel to Wingham for a Friday night contest. During the week, the Expos increased their playoff chances by holding the Dashwood Tigers to a 5 -' 5 tie Wednesday and downing Arva by a 7 - 4 score, Saturday. The Dashwood Tigers have clinched first place in the southern group while Clinton and Walkerton will represent the north in the four team playoffs. Big Sixth Inning A three run rally in the bottom of the sixth inning with the first three batters to the plate com- pleting the base cycle allowed the Expos to move ahead of Arva 5 - 4, Saturday. Two more Exeter runs scored in the eighth before the game was called because of darkness. Larry Gibson and Brad Gregus led off the Exeter sixth with back- to-back triples and Jim Pfaff followed with a single. Pfaff in turn scored on a walk on Bill Bourne's single. In the eighth Larry Haugh walked and scored as Rob Grant blasted out a long triple and Grant also crossed the plate as the Arva second baseman dropped the relay from the outfield. The Expos scored their other runs in the third and fourth frames. Larry Haugh walked to open the Expo third, moved to second on Rob Grant"s sacrifice and home on a single from the bat of Terry Bourne, Larry Gibson led off the fourth with his first of two triples and came in to score on an error. Right hander Jim Pfaff went the full distance on the mound for the Expos and held the visitors to eight well scattered hits. Early Scoring In the 5 - 5 tie Wednesday between the Expos and Dash- wood Tigers all scoring was confined to the first three innings, The Tigers forged altead by a 5 - 1 score after two innings of play but the Expos bounced back with a big four run rally in the third to square the score. In the Dashwood first,John Hayter was safe on a fielder's choice, Bill Schade walked and both scored on Jim Guenther's double. The three run Dashwood rally was powered by three base hits. John Hayter opened the rally with a single but was forced at second on Bill Schade's fielder's choice. Jim Guenther followed with his second consecutive The first Canadian paper mill was established in St. Andrews near Lachute, Quebec between 1803 and 1805. double to drive in Schade and scored himself on a single from the bat of Joe O'Rourke.

They were Gary Kyle, Larry Haugh, Scott Burton and Bill Farquhar. Bill Fairbairn'a single helped send the tying run across the plate. Scott Burton was the starting pitcher for the Expos getting help from. Jim Pfaff in the fourth inning with a .couple of runners on the bases. Dashwood also used a pair of pitchers, sill Schade was the starter with Brian Bestard coming on in the filth, also with a couple of oposition runners on the paths. Both relievers were able to put out the fire and keep the score tied at 5 - 5, the Knights' school is operating again. Locally, the Huron Hockey School has made quite an impact on both the boys and their parents who have seen it in operation. The Huron Hockey School which is operating in the Huron Park arena, has replaced the former Canadian Sport and Training Camp, The facilities and staff have been greatly enlarged. Bill Mahoney, hockey coach at McMaster University and a director of the school explained the philosophy of the school by saying, "We believe that minor age players are best taught by Professional educators who understand teaching progressions and the com- munication of hockey skills." For this reason all of our instructional staff combine training in education in addition to their extensive hockey backgrounds. One of the most popular and effective teaching methods used at the school is the instant T.V. replay camera. Boys are filmed on the ice during drill sessions and then are shown themselves in action during special T.V. lecture periods, Larry Paquet the schools audio-visual technician explained that this type of immediate Bill Hodge, Larry Clarke and Keith Davey, Kevin Bestard, the losing pitcher for Crediton gave up only five hits, but errors by his mates hurt his cause. feedback to the boys is extremely helpful in allowing the instructors to evaluate students at the school. The boys enjoy the opportunity to see how they look performing the various skills, and it adds to their learning experience. Huron school has drawn boys from both Canada and the United States. Boston, Chicago, Detroit and Cornwall have represen- tatives taking part in the school, however, the biggest enrollment comes from the local area from Goderich to London, The instructors have invited anyone interested to stop in and look around. Ice sessions run from 9:00 a.m, to 4:00 p.m. daily. Crediton club gets blanked The Creditors midgets dropped their only start of the week in Western Ontario Athletic Association league play to Goderich by a 4-0 score, Thur- sday. Although collecting a total of nine hits in the six inning contest, the Crediton youngsters failed to score. They had base runners in every inning but the final one.

This was probably the most exciting ball team to ever lay any league since Abner Doubleday invented the diamond sport, The nickname fit them perfectly. From manager Frankie Frisch right down to the relief pitchers the Cardinals of that decade were a brawling, rough and tough aggregation, Speed on the base paths was their trade mark. Speed along with beligerence. If they couldn't beat you on the field, they were willing to try it under the stands. Pepper Martin was probably the most exciting of all the Cardinals. At shortstop Pepper stopped balls with his head, his knees, chest, anything, but he stopped them. On the bases he was daring. He roared into second on his face, stomach, back. They couldn't get him out. Martin was the leader of the famous Mississippi Mudcat band. Pepper played the guitar while Fid- dler Bill McGee played the fiddle. The band played at railway stations, on the trains in the dugout, wherever and whenever a song was wanted. The Cardinals pitching of the thirties was led by Dizzy and Daffy Dean. The Dean's each won two games in defeating the Detroit Tigers in the 1934 World Series. We were able tolisten in one some of Dizzy's tales, some of which were pretty tall at the 196a World Series in Detroit and he certainly hadn't changed much since his playing days. He is always sure to tell everybody that he used his head as much as his arm in winning the 1934 World Series. Dean says he was responsible for winning the fourth game although he never did make it to the mound. Manager Frankie Firsch inserted Dean as a pinch-runner and when Pepper Martin bounced a potential double-play ball to Charley Gehringer at second, Dizzy charged standing up toward Detroit shortstop Bill Rogell. Rogell's relay never reached first base. The ball hit Dizzy square on the forehead. He was carried off the field unconscious. When he came to in hospital his first question was, "Did they get Pepper at first base?" This was the spirit of the Gas House Gang. In his usual brash and confident style Dizzy had predicted before the series "Me and Paul will win two games each" and they did exactly that. Dizzy won the seventh game over the Tigers by a 11 - 0 count and started a seven run rally in the third inning with a single. This is the game which came close to ending in a riot. Joe "Ducky" Medwick another of the daffy Cardinals slid hard into third in the seventh inning upsetting Detroit third baseman Mary Owen. When Medwick went to left field in the seventh, the fans greeted him with a barrage of oranges, grapefruit, apples, bananas, cans, bottles, etc. Medwick didn't budge at all, never acknowledging any of the flying missiles. After the ground crew cleared the field of debris it started again. This time Baseball Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis, sitting in a box seat or- dered, "Take Medwick out of the game for his own protection." So out came the Cards leading hitter with 11 safeties in the series. The incident failed to faze Dean who went on to record a six-hit shut-out. Another member of that famous St. Louis team was Leo Durocher, now manager of the Chicago Cubs.
