It w.as our observation that the
unsung heroes of the game of
football, the line, is ,what might
carry this club to a few vic-
tories this year. Up front on
that forward wall there is Brian

Oonneliy 6'1" 200 pounds, Ross
Sturdy 5'8" 160 pounds, John
McLean 5'8" 160 pounds, Rick
Duckworth 6' 185 pounds, all
veterans and looking quite
good in practice). Some rook-
ies who have caught On the .
first string team are George
Clark and Doug McArthur and -
certztre Carl McCormick. All of
these boys weigh in at about
the - 180 -pound mark. As you
can see this is no small line.
About the smallest and- lightest
is John McLean who plays the
game like he hated everybody.'
He tackles viciously and prob-
ably what' is more important,
he uses his head. C� Hor-
ner rates Donnelly, Dowds,
Sturdy and McLean as the best
ball players in the league.- This
o quite a compliment from a
man who played some great
football 'himself, and knows a
ball player when he sees one.
In the backfield this year
there are some new faces. At
fullback there is Papernick and
Wilkinson bbth • on last year's
squad, Duckworth a veteran
half and Dennis Wiliiamsot a
rookie. - As noted previously

The third and deciding game
of the series was played last
Saturday night in Harriston
and Aurora won a close game
by 3-1. Goderich won':tlt'e 'toss
for home diamond and Aurora
came to bat first.
The first batter singled on
the first pitch but Doherty
struck out the next 'batter. An
error in the infield allowed the
runner to score and place a
man on second. The clean-up
batter tripled to score the sec-
ond run and another' error al-
lowed the third run to score in
the inning.
Doherty retired the side liy
strikeouts and held. Aurora to
one hit for the remainder of
tl a gsme.
Goderich batters were hav-
ing their trouble trying to solve
the offerings of Roberts and it
wasn't until the fifth inning
when -- Shewfelt stepped into a
fast ball and sent a tremendous
drive over the left fielder's. -
head for a home run. II

The ball travelled about 260
feet in the air and was the
longest drive aver hit in the

crowd from Goderich that trav-

much to cheer about front that

EASt,AWN'.RE.sEgon4G 4.Aar easy, way to re -seed lawns
is to apply a top -killer herbi-
cide, rake well, and then sow
within a few ,days.
This saves the trouble and
expense of roto -tilling and level-
ling, says R. H. Turley of the
federal experimental farm at
Saanichton,_
Herbicides which remain ac-
tive in the soil, 'for some time
cannot be used for killing when
re -seeding is to follow immedi-
ately.
Good results were obtained at
Saanichton . with the chemical
paraquat.
Tests were, made on plots in
a dense lawn of Chewings fescue
and Merion bluegrass. These
plot's were sprayed with para-
quat at two pounds active in-
gredient per acre, Hien seeded
the following day. .
Before seeding, some plots
were heavily raked and up to
half the dead turf was removed.
Germinal:ion,counts proved this
to be an advantage,, --In the" un -
raked plots only 31 seedlings
{'1'�WO)ped-=iAsquatts -ftrot;`.
while on the raked plots, 1,077
developed.
It' was evident that the herbi-
cide remained active on the
dead turf resulting in poor ger-
mination, while raking permit-
ted the seeds to reach the soil
resulting in fairly good germin-
ation.
It would appear advisable
then to remove much, if not all,
