Th, Liens were trying to make it two straight, having taken the previous game in Goderich by a 7-3 score.

Goderich boys were leading by a score of 6-2 and,seemed to have the game in the, bag. When Ainslie', •pitching for Goderich, showed sign a of weakening, Evans Was rushed to the rescue, but the Meaford boys had by this time started on a batting spree, and before they could be retiredthey had put acrose three runs in the eighth inqngs and two in the ninth, to eke out a 7-6 victory, and making a third game necessary. It was a tough game for the Lions to lose, and the loss could be attributed only to their failure to hit Franklin ii the pinches. Goderichs, had two errors in the field, only one of which cootributed towards a score, while Meaford had seven miscues, four of there coining in the first iftnings. Stimmary of the game: GODERICH-6 hits, 6 runs, 2 errors, and 9 men left on bases. . MEAFORD-9 hits, 7. runs, 7 errors , and 9 men left on -bases. Umpires--eLenahan and Brown of Southampta.; -THIRD.

Patterson, are attending the Dominion road.convention at St. Andrew's -by -the - Sea, New Brunswiek.,- The party left by motor on Saturday morning for Niagara, where they would cross the border and, proceed to New Brunswick. Members Of the committee, are Reeve George Ginn, Goderich township, chair - mane .fteeve John- Armstrong.of Hullett and Reeve Walter Woods, of Turn - berry. from Meaford on neutral grotinds on Saturday .afternoon. The game was played at Southampton before a record crowd Ter the season', and bdth , .gregations had a. strong following frein their tespktive :towns. With the championship of the northern part of the Province at stake feeling ran- high, and the boys from both towns' had to . withstand a terrific barrage from hostile fans. Goderich, with Captain Evans call- ing the turn, won the toss 'and elected to take the field. With Evans desig-; flitted to take the box, his place at'tirst was filled by Newcombe, and "Porky" came through with flying ,colors, ac- cepting an even dozen chances without , an error.' He also came through with a timely' single to score a run in the eighth innings, coining front second with it Jesse Owens sprint, which ap- parently he has held in reserve for e years. in the first, innings, when Harold .Warren, leed011 man for the Lions, hit the first -pitch for a- home run, and brother Don followed with a double, it „slocilied like .a runaway for the Huron County boys, but Frankl,in immediately settled down Lind did not'allow another Goderich man across the plate•until the, Sev'enth innings. Evans meanwhile • was pitching a steady game for Gode- rich, and only one, Meaford man was --able to' i• reach'ishoute plate until, for Meaford, the "lucky seventh." In that innings a large blood blister, which had been slowly developing , on one of John's pitching fiegers, burst *wide - open,' and it was necessary to take him out of the 'box. By this time Meaford had put across four niore rims and were still unchecked' and leading 5-2. With two men on bases and only one out, and AinSlie's arm still ailing, it looked like curtains for the Lions. • Following what proved to, be a lucky huech, the • Goderich coach elected to .throv,v Don Warren into the breach, and the 'flaming redhead with all the assurance of a Dizzy Dean took on the pitching -chdre. Meaford scored one more in the seventh before the side was retired, and at that stage the Goderich boys decided to do a little hitting 'on their own account. When .Jim Bisset, started the fireworks with a triple 'in the seventh, his team-mates really went to -work with the willow', and in spite of Franklin's .best efforts and good • sOpport by his team-mates, they put three runs across the plate to Make the .seore read Goderich. 5, Meaford 6, at the end of the seventh.

With a .hubbub from the supporters' which could be heard In the neighbor- ing town of Port Elgin, the Goderich defence never- wavered, and • with "Scotty" roaring encouragement at his seventeea-year-old battery mate 'War- ren retired the side in the eighth in- nings without further score, and =then , after runners had reached second and third in the 9th innings proceeded to • strike out the side in order, leaviti'g the final score Goderich• 9, Meaford 6..

The visitors came here an unknown quantity, but the game had proceeded only a short time ,,when it was 'evident thet the Siincoe county boys were .no matchfor the locals, and it rethains a mystery how the 0.B.A: gave them d class B• rating. The Lions, fresh from a 'hard series with .Meeford. were in te,p form, and with their full team in the fields,gave their supporters a good • exhibition'. The. game was really just a nice 'workout, but it is unfortunate fel. the Lions that they have to lose the whole week in eliminating a weak. team and probably be very short-handed ,when they have to meet their real 'tests in the playoffs With no -other team ready to, meet them in the O.B.A. and r4Vimd standing -by idle for three weeka the • O.B.A. decided to get this series, over, and the next game will be played at Stroud on Saturday afternoon at 4 &Clock.
