latter half of the contest as
they held the Flyers

the Knighthawks record to
five wins against one loss
while the Flyers record
'stands at three wins and five
losses for the current season.

Agricos Unbeaten In Six
In Bluewater Ladies Slo-
Pitch play this past week the
Varna Agricos remain'
undefeated through six
games while the Bayfield
Babes and Bayfield Blue
Shadows recorded a win and
a loss each.
In the late start in Zurich
on Tuesday night, the Babes
outgunned the Zurich
Buckettes by a 42-8 score.
First inning homeruns by
Barb Sturgeon, Matty Fran-
cis, Patty MacDonald and
Nora West opened up a 7-0
lead. The Buckettes pulled to
within three runs in the bot-
tom half of' the inning but
then began to fall behind as
they failed to put many more
runs on the scoreboard. A
grand slam homerun in the
fifth by Barb Sturgeon gave
the Babes a 20-5 cushion.
Nora West also homered in
the sixth.
At Varna last Wednesday
night the Blue Shadows fail-
ed in their quest to be the
first team to knock off the
league leading Agricos this
season, as they lost to the
Varna girls by a 9-2 count.
The Blue Shadows and
Agricos were deadlocked at
2-2 in the sixth but Varna, led
by a homerun blast to the
fence off the bat of Catherine
Horton, opened up a lead and
hung on for the win.
Monday night in Bayfield,
the Blue Shadows gained
sole possession of second
place as they downed the
Babes by a 12-8 score. The
Babes led 3-0 going into the
bottom of the second, but the
Blues put seven runs on the
scoresheet and never relin-
quished the lead again. A
three run rally in the final in-
ning fell short for the Babes.
The solitary homerun of the
game went to Nora West of
the Babes in the second.

Two fire,nen hfor 40 years of service
by the Ontario Fire Mar-
shall's Awards Committee
and approved by the Fire
Marshall.
Two Bayfield Firemen
were honoured last week
when they received the Fire
Services Long Service
Medal. The two recipients,
Ken Brandon and Arnold
M. skins were on the Bayfield
Fir e Department ,when it
was originally formed back
in 1947 after the fire at the
Old Ritz Hotel on Main
Street. As they have put in
over 40 years of service, they
qualified for the award.
The two men accompanied
by their wives, travelled to
the Fire College in
Gravenhurst . on Friday,
June 19, for the presentation.
The awards could not be
presented to them in
Bayfield because the Fire
Services Long Service Medal
is an official presentation of
the Province of Ontario and
is recognized in heraldry as
an honoured decoration. As a
result, all had to adhere to
proper protocol and
establish an official in -
vesture at the Ontario Fire
College. There has to be a
minimum of 20 recipients
before one of these
ceremonies can take place,
and a full house was on hand
that day.

the Bluewater Golf Course.
The `Goofers' are a group of
12 ladies, mostly from
Seaforth and summer
residents from Seaforth with
one member each from
Dublin and Clinton. They
have played together for the
past 16 years and alternate
by playing one Wednesday at
Bayfield and then at
Seaforth the following week.
They play golf in the morn-
ing and then retire to the
hostess home for an after-
noon of visiting, eating and
what they describe as 'goof-
ing'.
Each member of the
`goofers' has one turn a
season when,she plays
hostess. On tat occasion,
the hostess provides the
lunch and the prizes for the
group. Last Wednesday's
prize was won by Mary Cox,
who had the lowest score.
When the weather is hot, the
ladies also enjoy a swim in
Lake Huron or a dip in the
pool at Seaforth, Occasional-
ly, they vary their schedule
by visiting another of the
nearby. golf courses and on
those days, take a box lunch
or dine at a restaurant.
Another `side' activity is the

Apart from the theoretical
aspects, students were also
required to acquire practical
experience, and spent two
days at Bluewater, and eight
at Huronview, in order to
practice techniques in ap-
propriate surroundings.
Certificates were awarded
at Connestoga College, Doon
Campus, Kitchener, on Fri-
day, June 12th, and the
presentations were made by
the President of the College,
Kenneth E. Hunter.
Commenting on the
course, Mrs. Sinnamon said
that it had been a rewarding
and stimulating experience,
shared with the other can-
didates whose ages ranged
from 18 years up. Some
financial assistance had
been made available
through Canada Manpower,
and she was very happy to
have had an opportunity to
take the course, since it was
something she could now put
to practical application in
the community; she also felt
that her participation might
be seen as an example to the
younger generation in that
one is never too old to learn.
The Town and Country
Homemakers, whose future
was in • jeopardy a short
while back, have been most
successful in their appeal for
funding for their office.
Discontinuation of the
courses at Conestoga Col-
lege, which threatened to
curtail the number of skilled
personnel required to main-'
tain .the service has now
been averted, since the deci-
sion has been reversed and
the courses have now been
reinstated.
