e: Unnnn Fans 17 In Monday's Game
The Goderich n Dodgers softball
team won the tlrst game of the
WOAA Ladies' Intermediate "A"
playoffs, defeating the Fergus Bow-
iettes 25-0 in a game played in
'Goderich last;`'Thursday night. In
lasing, the Fergus nine ,looked
'weak as compared with their two
lxrev .otis .meetings with the Dodg-
ers,, in regular season games.
The game started out to be a
close one, with Fergus getting no
runner past second in the first
three innings, while Goderich bat-
ters went down in order in the
first and second. Then the Dodg-
ers went to work in the third, scar-
ing five runs on only two hits in-
cluding a double by Joanne Castle.
Goderich scored in every inning
• after the third, helped by a homer
by 'Audrey, Harrison, a double by
Adeline Riehl, and a four -hit bar-
rage by Pearl Ernm•e.rton that in-
cluded two home runs with a total
of five teammates on base.
Kay MacKinnon struck out 11
Fergus batters and had her- best
game of the year at the plate,
eollecting four hits in six trips. E

Second Shutout
In the second game of the round -
'robin playoffs; the Goderich Dodg-
ers` defeated Mt. Forest 12-0 in
Goderich on Monday night. Even
with the one-sided score the game
was interesting ,to watch as Gloria
Holliday, pitching for Mt. Forest,
held the Dodgers to five hits in the
first six innings.
Errors proved costly for Mt.
Fox -est in the first as Goderich
scored three runs en only one hit.
The Dodgers added one more in
the fourth on .three hits including
a double by Kay Sharp. In the
seventh Mike Hartlin hit a home
run with two on to give the Dodg-
ers a 7-0- lead, and Goderich finish-
ed the scoring in the eigleilk with
five runs on five hits inc ng a
double by Kay MacKinnon.
The only extra base hit for Mt.
Forest was a double by Glenna
MacMillan in the fourth, as Kay
MacKinnon held the visitors to
four hits while striking out 17,
her highest one -game total of the
year.
Colleen Hughes was the out-
standing Mt. Forest player, collect-
ing two of their four hits while,.
robbing Dodger batters of more
than one extra base hit with five
good catches in left field. Fortun-
ately, Colleen plans to be in
Dodger uniform if the team
reaches -the OASA playoffrs.

SPORT NEWS
Lows as if the.-Goderich Dodgers
are .sure to be in the WOAA
Ladies' Softball 'finals. After their
convincing victoriesover Fergus
here last Thursday night and
Mount Forest on Monday night,
the Dodgers appear to be ready to
continue down the victory trail.
Last night they were slated to
journey to Fergus for a return
match, and , tomorrow' night they
will go • to Mount Forest. The
series is a round-robin affair with
one team to be eliminated. The
remaining two 'squads- will gay off
for the title, with the final series
slated to get underway later"'this
month. All Goderich, of course,
is; hoping for the Dodgers to bring
home the bacon again this year.
They have taken the title for .the
past three years.
Often it's a heartbreaker game
that decides a title. And that's
just what happened hereon Mon-
day evening when Goderich's Ban-
tam baseball squad lost out to
Walkerton in an overtime battle,
and the Walkerton youngsters
went home with the WOAA Ban-
tam "13" title. Monday's affair was
tied 6-6 at the end of nine innings
after both teams had played nip-
andtuck baseball. Then the roof
fell in and the visitors piled seven
runs across the plate while Gode-
rich added only three, making the
-final score 13-9. The local lads
have had a fairly good season, al-
though they played against teams
of lower groupings. Last year
many of the eboys who played on
this year's ba tam squad were on
the local Midget "B" team which
won the WOAA title and lost out
to Paris in the OBA playdowns.
It's the only baseball team left:
in Goderich, and we hope the
team's promoters, Harry "Red"
Worsell and Clayton Laithwaite,,
will be back again with another
baseball 'team. next year.
Indoor sports haven't been for-
gotten in Goderich this suuntner.
For the ,past several weeks, the
auditorium at Goderich Memorial
Arena has been a beehive of ao-
tivity with the recently -formed
Canadian Legion -Athletic Club
holding sessions. The.' club, spon-
sored by Goderich Branch 109 of
,tli;e.,Legion, is a new venture that
shotfld catch on. Its purpose is
to try to give youngsters some
boxing and gym training—mainly
aimed at building better bodies.
Under .the leadership of "Mac"
MacAuley, a veteran in ring work,
the, youngsters are progressing
very well arid there is still room
for more in the classes. This is
a commendable effort on the Leg-
ion's part and the organization has
already .purchased $100 worth of
'equipment.' Classes are held each
Wednesday from 7 to 8 pen. Any
youngsters interested sheuIil"'•-gbt-
in on these classes.
