The game was close in the early innings with the score tied at 3*3 after four innings of play. A four run Crediton out­ burst in the top of the fifth inning helped to gain the win. In the Dashwood first, Rob Masse walked and scored on a hit by Dave Hayter. Crediton jumped into a temporary lead with two runs in the third. A triple by Allan Brand and double from the bat of Randy Ford produced the runs. In the Dashwood third, Dan Dittmer’s double sent Tony Smith and Dave Hayter across the plate.

Terry Smith singled and Dave Hayter and Dan Dittmer, walked in the Dashwood seventh but the young Crediton pitcher struck out the last two batters. The Dashwood bats were SPARK ends on Friday By LAURAJOHNS The SPARK trip to Bob-lo Island Amusement Park last Friday was enjoyed by the twenty-seven enthusiastic children and the eight supervisors. At the Park the children had a ride on the ferry to get the Bob-lo Island. Rides, games, candy floss a.nd caramel popcorn were popular with the children. A stop at a McDonald’s Restaurant on the way home helped to fill all the tummies with more goodies. The trip was long but was a complete success. This week is our last week for the children and is called ‘The Entertainer’. The children practiced hard for their shows at the parents’ night Wednesday evening. The theme for the parents’ night was Around the World. The Juniors performed their musical numbers with actions and a May pole. The intermediate group sang songs telling of foods from different countries. The seniors performed a S.P.A.R.K. review, glides taken during the summer gave the parents a look at what their children had been up to. This morning the children saw the last set of movies and this afternoon will celebrate everyone's bir­ thday with cake and ice cream. Tomorrow morning will be the last day of S.P.A.R.K. and a graduation party with all the trimmings will be held. We would like to thank all those people who have made this program the complete success it has been. Special thanks is extended to Judy Simmons whose belief in kids made S.P.A.R.K. possible.

Scoring for six-a-side is computed at two for a goal, and one point for conceding a corner-kick. Three of Exeter’s winning goals were scored by Wes Abbott in performing a perfect hat-trick. Ron Funston collected the last two-point goal, and Exeter’s final point came from conceded corners, with Exeter goalkeeper Paul Van Esbroeck unscored against. In the final, Nairn B won the A-division trophy in a game against Nairn A. That game, perhaps the best of the eight played during the afternoon, ended in a 7-7 tie, and was decided on five penalty-kicks for each team. Nairn B won 3-2 on the kicks. The six-a-side tournament is organized and annually by the soccer club. Exeter soccer began the month of August with a win in mosquito division play, and two ties in the squirt division. August 1, Exeter mosquitoes downed Nairn 3-0 to become division leaders. The win came on two goals by Rick Gilfillan, and one by Andrew Winters. .Goalkeeper Scott Lovie’s shut-out was also matched ■ by fine performances from Frank and Joe Martin, and Sean O’Rourke. The same night, Exeter squirts tied Nairn 1-1, with both goals coming in the space of two minutes of the first half. Nairn led on a penalty-kick score at the 10- minutc mark. Then, at 12 minutes, Brian Quinn . collected a pass from Fred Grcgus to get Exeter the tie. Thereafter, neither club could score again, The next night, Wed­ nesday, the squirts came up with a 2-2 tie with St. Marys who led 1-0 at the end of the first half. Early in the second, Paul Mellecke converted a pass from Dale Kints to tie the game 1-1, Minutes later, Kints set up Exeter’s second goal when his shot went through the keeper’s legs on an angle, and David Russell^ coming in from the side, hit the ball in for the score. Exeter led 2-1 until near game's end, when St, Marys capitalized on a scramble at the Exeter het to end the game al 2-2.
