Fury notch fourth win on home field EXETER - The Exeter Fury kept their perfect home record in- tact Sunday as they defeated the Delhi Royals 3-0. The Fury have managed four straight wins on their home field but have failed to gain a point in three road games. Sunday's game was a very physical contest with yellow cards being given to a couple of Delhi players•foi fouls against the Exet- er team. The first half saw only one goal scored as Tom Wester - veld picked the corner after find- ing himself alone at the side of the net. The second half had the Fury defending the one goal lead as Delhi mounted some pressure but Exeter's defense turned them away. Mark Lynn played a strong game while dealing with the trip- ping and holding tactics of the Delhi team. The Fury were able to relax a bit when Westerveld headed the ball in for his second of the game. Exeter 'clinched the win on a Jeff Lingard goal as he drilled his shot into the far corner of the net after being set up nicely by Dan Martens. Randy MacDonald picked up the shutout making the saves when he had to. "They were a rough team. A lot of our guys were knocked down, tripped and tackled. The referee only caught some of the fouls," said coach Jason McFal Is. "We didn't play as well as we can. We didn't pass the ball to the open man very well but our defense were able to clear the ball when we were in trouble," he added. The Fury's next home game is against Tillsonburg on June 25.

A predication of fair weather for the weekend gladdens their hearts and reinforces their confidence in the weather forecasters. Should the prediction be unfavourable, they will second-guess the forecasters and recall the many times their pre- dictions were wrong. Unfortunately, all the positive thinking in the world could not pre- vent rain from falling on Saturday, June 3. Five members of the Lucan Homing Pigeon Club had shipped 33 pigeons to St. Jerome, P.Q., a distance of 655 kms. and 34 birds to be released at Brockville, Onta- rio, a distance of 485 kms. Howev- er, since it was raining all the way between St. Jerome and Lucan, it was the first hold -over of the racing season. The following day, under much improved weather conditions, , the pigeons were released at St. Je- rome at 6:30 a.m. and at 9:30 at Brockville. Mitch Szczech com- pletely dominated the St. Jerome race by taking positions one, two and three. The Royal Hardy lofts from Lucan, claimed the four, five and seven spots. Birds from the T. Hardy and J. Southern lofts put in creditable performances. The Brockville race results were almost a complete reversal of the St. Jerome outcome. The Royal Hardy Lofts captured positions one and two. Tom Hardy's working man's lofts placed third and fourth and Szczech took positions six and seven. One of Harry Winters' pi- geons paddled fast and furiously, only to end up in last place. We expect a lot of birds to be en- tered in preparation of the longest race of the season: the 500 -mile Frank Hardy Memorial Race from Grand Mere, Quebec. SCHOOL OF BASEBALL.
