A group of 15-year-olds who first lost 13-0 to the Exeter A team, but then went down to a respectable 3-0 defeat at the hands of a Huron Park side. The two finals also featured excellent soccer, with Lucan and Forest deserving winners on the day. Labour Day, Monday. The site will depend on the toss of a coin.

Paw. 4A Tfm•s-Advocat*, August 29, 1979 Suns lose The sun set early Sunday afternoon, To clarify this statement we should say the Suns set early. The Milverton Suns were thwarted about 5:30 Sun- day afternoon in their attempt to win the Canadian senior ladies fastball championship. This is the second year in succession that the Suns have finished second. They failed to come through despite the fact they were cheered on by about 7,000 hometown fans. The Milverton club deserves sincere con- gratulations for not only turning in a good performance but in hosting the tournament. We caught four of the Friday games and found the brand of ball was excellent and exciting. One of our comments would be that we wouldn't play third base on any of the girls teams for any amount • of money. In baseball generally third base is known as the hot • corner and this phrase really applies in the ladies game. In most situations the third baseman in expecting a bunt can almost feel the breath of the batter and takes • her life in her hands when the batter decides to take a hard swing. To play at third one must have excellent reflexes. Milverton coach George Wicks told us this tourna- :, ment was probably the best ever as far as competition was concerned. Said Wicks, "The brand of ball may not be that much improved in recent years but the gap between some of the teams is lessening. The eastern and northern teams are showing great improvement." The Northwest Territories team should be heard • from in the next couple of years. While failing to win a game they showed good promise. Their average age is only 16 years. Lots of time to mature. • Another highlight of the tourney was the excellent . , umpiring. We understand the only argument of any :','serious nature place Sunday on a close play at the plate when British Columbia scored their first. run against r Milverton. It was one of those bang-bang plays. • Umpires were in action from every province in- eluding the Yukon and Northwest Territories. A lot of Exeter and area fans were in attendance throughout the week in Milverton to watch Lynne Farquhar and Iris Marshall in action with the Suns. Lynne was in right field for the Suns for the final games Sunday and Iris was the designated hitter in most of the games. Tigers on the move t'4 the Dashwood Tigers are off and running in the ),,,,Ontario Baseball Association Senior "D" playoff series. The Tier-s" wasted little time in disposing of Ken- dall in two straight games over the weekend. In Dashwood Saturday the Tigers scored 5-3 victory and Sunday they won 5-I in the Oshawa area town. In addition to a well rounded defensive team, Tiger manager Joe Fulop has an excellent pitching staff. He has great selection of two left handers and three right handers. Southpaw Jim Guenther went the full nine inning distance Saturday to claim the victory. Big Jim was touched for 11 hits, but, he was tough in the clutch. He recorded six strikeouts, the three big ones coming in the top of the ninth when Kendall mounted its best rally. It's apparently essential that ball players have a good footing. Jim told us in the dugout during the game 'that he was wearing new spikes. That must have been the reason for his win. Sunday, the second left on the team John Bruijns held Kendall to a single run. The right handers on the Dashwood pitching staff are Perry Stover, Barry Baynham and Brian Rader. The second round for the Tigers should get un- derway this weekend with the opposition coming from Thorndale or Nanticoke. The other eight teams still in contention for the provincial title are Kincardine, Collingwood, Petrolia, Woodslee, Sudbury, Kapuskas- ing, Pembroke and Ottawa. If the Tigers eventually meet Ottawa a familiar face will likely invade the Dashwood diamond. The catcher for the Ottawa team is none other than Randy "Putts" Tieman. Randy is currently the sports director of an Ottawa radio station. Lots of corn We were privileged to have an invitation Thursday night to the annual corn roast at the farm of Harvey Smith when the professionals attending the Huron Hockey School were in attendance. Smith, who drives the hockey school bus during the summer months throws this party each year and it is very popular with the visiting pros. . The few we had a chance to chat with were Al Secord of the Boston Bruins, Pat Ribble of the Black Hawks and Harold Phillipoff from Atlanta. Secord said he expected little change in the pattern of play of the Bruins as Fred Creighton replaces the in- comparable Don Cherry as coach.- When the player's left the corn roast, Harvey Smith was heard to say, "Best of luck, fellows. Except when you play the Leafs." Registration time Lewis Mitchell co-manager of the new Exeter Mohawks of the South Huron intermediate hockey league told us Monday that plans for the coming season are well underway. The team will be holding registration for prospec- tive players at the South Huron Rec Centre on Thurs- day, September 6 at 7:30 p.m. Mitchell who will be operating the club with the help of John Gillespie Announced that Harold "Bud" Preszcator will be the coach.
