some good base running to
earn the win.
Later in the afternoon, the
champs had to come from

post wins
There were four two-goal
performances when Exeter
downed Huron Park 10-0 in
exhibition mosquito-division
soccer last week.
Exeter’s double-goal
performances came from
Andrew Winters, Blayne
Epp, Scott Lovie and Jeff
Van Haarlem. Singles were
scored by Danny Morley and
Lawrence Fink, with Steve
Gould and Dennis Eisen-
schink splitting the shut-out
in goalkeeping duties.
In league play on Monday,
July 10, Steve Gould was the
goal scorer when the Exeter
Mosquitoes tied Lucan 1-1,
with each team scoring in
the second half of an evenly
played game.
On the same night, Exeter
and Lucan played to a
scoreless draw in squirt
division soccer. Exeter’s
best chance at a goal came in
the first half on a penalty
kick. But the Lucan keeper
cleared it, and afterward
neither side could get a
break.
The only other victory for
Exeter’s young soccer
players was collected last
Wednesday night when
Exeter overcame a tie to
defeat Lucan 2-1 in a pee-wee
division game.
Phil DeHaan put the locals
in front with a goal in the
first half. Lucan’s reply to it
came in the second with an
excellent shot to the top
corner of the net that beat
keeper Rich Helm out of any
chance at a save. But with
about two minutes left,
Exeter’s Doug Medd
collected his club’s winning
goal.

Play three times this week
Tigers beaten in two contests
The Dashwood Tigers
tackled a couple of southern
squads this week and came
up on the short end of the
count in both instances.
At home on Friday, they
took a 12-9 loss at the hands
of Tillsonburg and a night
later in Walsingham they
ended up losers by a narrow
5-4 margin.
The Tigers started well
against Tillsonburg with a
two-run first inning, but the
visitors came up with five of
their own in the top of the
second and never looked
back, although the losers
scored four times in the
bottom of the ninth to make
the count a little closer.
Two errors and a double by
Glen Thurman led to Dash
wood’s two runs in the first.
They added another in the
second two in the fifth and
four in the last inning.
Losing pitcher Perry
Stover was shocked for 16
hits by the Tillsonburg nine,
but he retaliated by leading
the Dashwood hitters with a
pair of safeties, including a
two-run homer in the fifth.
Getting one safety each
were Barry Baynham, John
Hayter, Thurman, Noel
Skinner, Kevin Bestard, Bob
Hoffman.
D. Pidock recorded nine
strikeouts in going the
distance for the winners,
while Stover sent seven
batters back to the bench via
the strikeout route.
In Saturday’s game at
Walsingham, the Tigers
again fell short in a ninth
inning rally as they dropped
the one-run contest to
Senators.
They scored twice in
first inning on doubles

hit and then with two out and
a runner on third, Kelly Ker-
nick slammed a base hit to
score the winning tally.
Meanwhile, the Exeter
Greys were moving toward
the final as they opened the
tournament with a 7-5 win
over Cromarty and followed
that with a 17-4 drubbing of
Mitchell and a 20-3 romp
over Thorndale.
In the Sunday night cham-
. pionship game, Kirkton
jumped into a 6-0 lead at the
end of the third and
appeared to be heading for
an easy win.
However, Exeter rebound
ed for five runs in the fifth
before Kirkton added two in
surance tallies in the sixth.
Kelly Kernick topped the
winners’ batters with six
hits in the tournament for a
.545 average, while Carrie
Stroud hit three safeties.
Patti Down and Sue
Schaefer had averages of
333.
Winning the consolation
round of the tournament was
the Cromarty entry. They
nipped Lucan 14-12 in the
final.
A feature of the tourna
ment was an appearance of
the Kitchener Kieswetters,
one of Canada’s top female
teams. They played an all-
star aggregation from the
South Perth league and won
12-0.
Members of the all-star
team were Lucy
Etherington and Laura
Hern. Usborne; Pam Dicker
and Linda Keeler, Thorn
dale: Cathy Skinner and
Brenda Vosper, Fullarton;
Jane Rolston and Carol
McKnight, Blanshard;
Joyce Morgan and Lea'Snell,

Vai Glanville, Cromarty;
Karen Glanville and Carol

Split two
In league play this week,
the Kirkton midgets split a
pair of games, losing 6-0 to
St. Marys and edging Dublin
14-12.
Last Tuesday. Kirkton and
St. Marys played scoreless
ball for the first five innings
before the winners scored
their six tallies in the top of
the sixth. Errors played a
big role in the loss as’ Patti
Down held St. Marys to
three hits but her mates had
seven miscues.
On Monday. Kirkton
pounded out 12 hits to edge
Dublin behind the pitching of
Kelly Kernick and Terri
Brintnell.

Last week was Health and
Safety Week for the children
on S.P.A.R.K. The children
showed their interest in
keeping their neighbourhood
clean by participating in a
garbage collection walk-a-
thon on Monday through
Huron Park.
Visitors to the playground
last week were Deb Wooden
from the Exeter Swimming
Pool, Jean Dunsford from
the Huron County Health
Unit and four of the firemen
from the Huron Park Fire
Department. The children
enjoyed the visits from these
people in their community
who help them to be safe
and healthy.
This week is holiday week.
Monday was a busy day with
both valentines and Easter
being celebrated. Tuesday
the children dressed up as
spooks and goblins as we
pretended it was Hallowe’en.
A party with games and
prizes for the best costumes
was held in the morning.
Wednesday about 50
children travelled by bus to
Goderich to participate in a
play day sponsored by the.
Lake Huron Zone Recreation
Association.
Christmas in July was
celebrated on Thursday
morning. The weekly movie
show was run as well.
A trip to the Fanshawe
Pioneer Village in London is
planned for tomorrow as an
introduction for next week’s
theme of Wild West Week.
The children will leave at ten
o’clock from the play ground
and spend the rest of the day
picnicking and touring the
pioneer village.
