Tennis Tip of the Week The objective of hitting a basic forehand groundstroke (from the baseline) Hit the ball deep into your opponent's court, preferably into the last few feet. Hit the ball between two and six feet over the net (for depth and for safety) Hit to your opponents weaker stroke, usually the backhand. Be patient: most points 'are lost, not won. The con- sistent player will beat the impatient "slugger" almost every time. Wait for a weak return by your opponent before trying to hit the risky "winner".. Experience will tell you when to gamble and when to use caution. Centennials get draw Exeter Centennials and Huron Park drew 2-2 in Ausable district soccer at Canner's field, Sunday. Glen McLaughlin led for the Park at 15 minutes of the opening half, with right- winger Al Hern bringing Exeter back wake goal five minutes later. In the second, Dave Burbank caught the Cen- tennials flat with a score off a free -kick at 55 minutes, after Exeter had missed on a couple of smart drives up the centre. The Centennials' tie goal then came at 75 minutes, with centre -forward Martin DeBruyn collecting the score. The clubs were tightly even throughout one of the better games played locally this season. They each had a good share of chances off their attacks, and both Huron Park and Exeter received fine goalkeeping to meet them. The Park getting it from Rich Helm, and the Centennials from Paul Van Esbroeck. The. league is idle this coming weekend.. On August 5, the Centennials play away at Lucan at 6 p.m., while Huron Park hosts Taxandria at 2 p.m. In other games, Forest is at Grand Bend at 2 p.m., and West Williams is at Nairn at 6 p.m. -WIN PEE WEE "B" TITLE — The "B" division of the weekend -Exeter pee wee baseball tour- nament was won by Wyoming.

Event grows each year Times -Advocate, July 25, 1979 Pogo SA Skeet shoot draws large Crowd. By BILL McNUTT The Mitchell Fish and Game Club was the site of a large team skeet shoot, Sunday, which drew shooters from London to Goderich. Seven teams participated in the blistering heat as a large crowd of spectators wat- ched. The shoot, which has come to be an armual event at the club, has grown from only three teams in four years. " This shows the interest which is growing st adily in organized shooting. The number of club members is up for many reasons. Many people have joined to put their support behind groups fighting for our right to own firearms, others, to get away from "things" for a while every week or because their friend or neighbours talked them into trying the sport. Whatever the reason, the important thing is that they did join and have discovered that shotgun shooting is fun. Whether it be tfap or skeet,. they have found enjoyment in_their.regular shoots and - special fun in these shoots where they visit other clubs to meet new friends. Many other people have discovered that their fears of shotguns were unfounded. Today's guns and loads when properly matched to the shooter are a joy to shoot. Although some guns do "kick" badly --usually single shots most do not, so once their equipment is properly matched the fun begins. Not even handicaps should deter people wanting to shoot. I know several good shots who have only one eye, another shooter who has only one arm and one rho shoots from a wheelchair. Weight and build make no . difference. Children only 8 or 9 years have become sur- prisingly good shots. One lady shooter from Oshawa, weighs a scant 100 pounds and regularly shoots 400 targets a week end. Another man who weighs over 300 pounds is a top notch shooter. There -are also a large number of shooters who have had heart attacks shooting so as you can see anyone can shoot and enjoy the com- petitions just like the people at Mitchell. In Sunday's shoot each team member shooter shot 50 targets to give the team a total of 250. This year's shoot, which ipcluded two teams from the Claybird gun club, two from the Goderich gun club and one each from Kippen, Mitchell and London, was the closest yet. , When tharfirst rounds were over -125 targets --there were only five targets separating the top four teams. The Goderich number 1 . team was leading with 109, London was second with 106, Mit- chell followed with 105 and the Claybird number 1 team was fourth with 104. - At that point it was evident that anyone could win. The Claybird number 1 team upped their` score by two. The Goderich number 1 team got off to a bad start but held on to get a 108. , London came up with the best round of the day --114- to get a good • lead .which Mit- chell couldn't catch even though they beat their first round by four`targets. High individual gun of the *day went to Bili Boussey. with a 49. Runner ups with 46 each were John Hessels, Tom Russel and Calvin Christie. Getting 25 straight were Stan Woriters, Bill Boussey, Calvin Christie and Tom Russel.. A lot of credit should be given to the.Kippen team as they showed a lot of sport- smanship in participating. Kippen is a trap shooting club and there shooters have shot very little skeet and I congratulate them for their efforts. The final scores are as follows: ' • London -220 John Vanderpluym 23+21- -44; C.
