blazing pitch from Belmore’s Chris Eady in the championship game at
the Walton Bantam Softball Tournament. Eady struck out 13 and
allowed only four hits in pitching his team to a 6 - 0 win. Although
delayed by Sunday’s rain the tournament was completed Sunday

Brussels mite girls win consolation crown
On Saturday, Aug. 8 the Tri
County Mite Girls Tournament
was held in Wingham. The tourn
ament was among six centres,
Belgrave, Brussels and Walton
from the southern division playing
the northern centres of Bluevale,
Fordwich and Wroxeter.
The first Brussels game was at
10:30 at Riverside Park against
Wroxeter. Until the fourth inning it
was anyone’s game when Stacy
Hahn hit a grand slammer with
bases loaded. The game ended up
17 - 7 for Brussels.
The next game was at the
Optimist Park at 12 noon against
Bluevale. At the end of two
innings, Bluevale was leading 12 -
4. Brussels girls just couldn’t seem
to do anything right. They came
alive when Janice Jacklin hit a
triple, followed by a home run by
ErinMitchell. Other home runs
were scored by Rebecca Daughin
and Jennifer Machan. At the end of
the fourth inning the score was tied
at 16. The pressure was on.
Bluevale being home team got last
bat. Brussels, in the fifth inning
scored five runs, while Bluevale
only scored once. Score ended up
Brusselswinning21 -17. It sure
was a good game.
Brussels then had a break for
lunch. Their next game was at 3
p.m. at the Josephine Street Park
Brussels
approve by-law
Brussels council approved a
by-law August 4 that, if approved
by Grey township council, will set
the ground rules for hooking up to
the Brussels sewer system by
people in the township.
The by-law would require that
customers of the sewer system
outside the village boundary pay
the same frontage charge as those
within the village plus 150 per cent
of the normal monthly sewer
charge.
The bylaw is necessary, Clerk
treasurer Hugh Hanly explained,
because only Grey township has
the power to forcibly collect from
residents in its municipality.
Councillor Ruth Sauve felt that a
similar agreement should be draft
ed with Morris township. Mr.
Hanly was instructed by council to
draft such a bylaw in time for the
next meeting of Council in Sept.
against Fordwich. Again the first
two innings indicated that it was
anyone’s game. The third inning
Brussels pulled ahead with home
runsfrom “Mighty” Holly Mit
chell, Tanya Smith, Kristal Smith,
and Amy Thomas.
In the game Lanette Todd
brought in four runs and Kim
Mulvey, the strong first baseman,
added another three runs to the
total. Sarah McArter did some
great catching behind home base.
They came out on top with a score of
33-21.
After winning all three games
and a plus of 26 they won the
Consolation Tournament. The day
ended with a barbecue for the team
and their families. Special thanks
to Becky and Sarah for keeping
sore, John Lome, the umprie and
