with shut-out win
The Brussels Tigers opened their

League schedule with a 7-0 mercy

from Clinton, Sunday afternoon.
Doug Shaw's two out triple in the
second inning opened the gates for
a six run outburst.
Todd Eurig went the distance for
the win with a two hit, eight strike
out effort.

THE EDITOR,
On behalf of the Cruickshank
family we would like to thank Mr.
Roulston for his kind words of the
late “Doc” Cruickshank.
Grandpa did indeed have a
dream! Through hard work and
dedication to the community this
dream developed.
I know that he would have been
disappointed that the television part
of CKNX is done, but this would
have been a challenge to Grandpa
to make the radio station bigger and
better for the listening area.
As long as CKNX is still stand
ing his dream will never die!
Granddaughter
Julie McCall, Brussels.
THE EDITOR,
As Vice President and General
Manager of CKNX Broadcasting, I
would like to take this opportunity
to express my sincere thanks for the
many thoughtful letter and phone
calls received over the last few
days. The concerns and comments
expressed by you, our viewers and
listeners, are much appreciated.
There are many questions being
asked regarding the restructuring of
CKNX TV 8 and while there is not
the space to answer all of those
questions, here and now, I will take
just a moment of your time.
CKNX Television will continue
to be an active participant in the
daily lives of the residents of mid-
westem Ontario. You will continue
to receive CKNX TV on Channel
Eight. While there will be new
faces delivering your news, the
daily information important to this
region will continue to be gathered
by the CKNX News, Sports and
Farm Departments. This regional
coverage will be blended with
National and International news
and presented in a professional and
thorough manner. Specific weather
forecasts will also be prepared for
TV 8 viewers.
There are many deserving orga
nizations and charitable groups in
this area, which have been support
ed by CKNX TV and Radio over
the years. This support, from our
broadcast company, will be on
going. While we may do things dif
ferently, CKNX is still very much
committed to helping worthwhile
causes.
Providing a regional television
service and two strong radio sta
tions, for the counties of Grey,
Bruce, Huron, Perth and North
Wellington, is what we see as our
mandate for the future. The roots of
CKNX Broadcasting are deeply
planted in mid-western Ontario. It
is our plan to be here for many
years to come.
Thank you for caring.

Day you know) to return home for
a Sunday game against Walton.
This is the Tigers' second season
in the Huron County League, a 13
team loop with clubs in Exeter,
Clinton, Bayfield, Walton and
Francistown; two teams from Blyth
and Zurich, and three teams from
Seaforth.
Last season Brussels finished a
solid second but were eliminated in
opening round playoffs.
Home games are every Sunday
night at 7:30 p.m.
THE EDITOR,
The “Pioneer Spirit” is alive and
well in the village of Clifford of
750 residents, just 60 miles north of
Kitchener.
When the M.T.O. refused fund
ing for a much needed set of traffic
lights on busy Highway No. 9, the
people of the community and area
rallied together to raise the funds to
purchase a second hand set of traf
fic lights and their installation.
Within just 10 months of forming
a committee to raise the funds it is
with deep pride that we announce
that on May 16, the traffic lights
will be officially turned on.
An all day celebration which is
also a 125th Canada Event will
include several exciting happen
ings. To name a few: Breakfast,
family 3 pitch baseball tournament,
horseshoe tourney for men and
women, unveiling of the traffic
lights at 11:30 a.m., bathtub races,
a parade at 7:30 p.m. (Theme is
Pioneer Spirit) and a FREE family
dance and of course fireworks. You
won't want to miss a minute of this
exciting day.
On May 16, all roads will lead to
Clifford - the community that
would not accept the answer “NO”.
We said we could and we did.
With the support of local service
clubs, organizations, our Local Fire
Department, donations from near
and far, and the help of the media -
we saw our dreams come true.
To save a life, to make it safe for
anyone to cross the busy highway
was always our constant source of
inspiration.
If you truly believe in something
- work for it and it can become a
reality. The Village of Clifford is
proof of that.
