May have more music in the park
The Pioneer Park
Association members met in
the park last Saturday
morning to set this year's
executive committee and
hear reports on current
activities.
The Ray Sealey concert,
an evening of classical
guitar work, held last Friday
night was well attended and
proved to be successful. As a
follow up, a discussion was
held at the annual meeting
as to the possibility of
organizing a `mini -musical'
for next season featuring
classical works. Concert
guitarist Ray Sealey voiced
his opinion that the people of
Bayfield are the sort who
would enjoy such an evening
as evidenced by the turnout
last Friday night.
The report on the Rum-
mage Sale was given by Don
Cook and suggestions were
made concerning neXt year's
event. Patty McDonald
reported on the volleyball at
Pioneer Park and it was
suggested that another net
might be obtained in order
that more people could be
involved in this particular
activity.
It was reported by Alex
Schevchuk and Mark
Stevens that both 'movie
nights' had been well at-
tended. Silver Collections at
the shows have netted in the
neighborhood of $160 which
will be used in renting a
quality feature film.
Following the 'general
meeting, the directors met to
Flyers win
medal
The Bayfield Flyers
travelled to Owen Sound last
weekend for the Lake Huron
Zone • Regional Summer
Games and came home
sporting the gold medals as
ski -pitch champions for 1981.
Last year, the Flyers were
the silver medal winners.
There were 24 teams entered
in the two day event.
The first game pitted the
Flyers against McKinnen
Bros. from Listowel and
Bayfield took it by a 14-4
score. In game two the score
was tied 5-5 in the final in-
ning when the Flyers scored
twice to record a 7-5 win over
the Carpetbaggers, an A
Division team from
Goderich.
The third Flyers game also
carne down to the wire, but
the Bayfielders puled
through to down Little
England, another Listowel
team, by a 9-6 margin.
This win qualified the
Flyers for the Sunday af-
ternoon final game and they
came up against some old
friends, Kincardine
Embassy. Earlier in the
season, these two teams had
played twice and split the
games. In the Goderich
tournament four weeks ago,
the Flyers downed Embassy,
but last week in Bayfield,
Embassy was the winner by
a.15-6 score.
However, the game shaped
up to be a close contest and
set the 1981-82 executive.
Returning for another term
as chairman will be Walter
A. Thompson. Morgan Smith

lampoonery
By Bud Sturgeon
Isn't it a fine state of affairs? My typewriter is
broken and I have to write this column longhand. My
camera is out of order and has to go to Toronto for
repairs.
The posties are going back to work I hear. After six
weeks off the job, they have left behind a long line of
tragedies. Many small businesses were forced into
bankruptcy, and the ones the post office didn't get, the
high interest rates did. Is it little wonder that no tears
are shed for post office workers?
They just get one mess settled and another one
starts. Par for the course eh? Once again it is trouble
with the air traffic controllers. In the USA, President
Reagan' stepped in and put his foot down. He fired them
all for taking part in an illegal strike. What's the
bottom line here? Thousands of people stood in line-ups
(miles long) to get their posh jobs and life goes on.
In Canada, Pierre couldn't put his foot down because
he is on vacation again. Interim head Pepin made a
few idle threats, but there was nobody fired over the
illegal work stoppages here. He might fine them. He
might to this and he might do that. Hell, I say fire the
1? +&! and let someone else apply for jobs.
The MP's just voted themselves another pay in-
crease. They will be waltzing home with gourds full of
money. Interest rates are rising daily and the value of
our dollar is dropping daily. As Neil Young once said,
"As the days fly past will we lose our'grasp?" There is
little we, the Canadian people, can do about it. It is over
our heads.
+++
But as the river flows, life goes on and I am off on
holidays until September methinks. With all these
others receiving huge pay hikes it only serves to
remind me that the newspaper correspondents at
Clinton haven't had a raise for 10 months. Therefore, it
is time to hit the bargaining table.
See you in September. Maybe!"

Ladies playoffs start
In the final regular season,
game in the Bluewater
Ladies Slo-Pitch League, the
Bayfield Babes travelled to
Zurich where they defeated
the hometown Buckettes by
a 27-6 score. The game was
tied at four each after one
inning of play, but the Babes
pulled ahead in the second 8-
6 and then held Zurich
scoreless for the remainder
of the contest. Barb Sturgeon
had two homeruns for the
Babes and Jill Armstrong
added one for the. Bucks.
The playoff series began
on both fronts as the best of

Varna Agricos against the
Zurich Buckettes while the
two Bayfield teams, Babes
and Blue Shadows faced
each other. In Vama on
Wednesday night, the
Agricos defeated the Bucks

game lead in the series. The
second game was set for
Tuesday, August 11 in
Zurich.
The second series opened
on Monday night in Bayfield
as the Babes downed the
Blue Shadows by an 11-5
margin. By the end of three
innings the Blue Shadows
had taken a 4-0 lead in the
game but the Babes came
back in the fourth inning
with seven unanswered runs
to take the lead. The only
homerun in the game came
in the fifth inning when Rhea
Potter drove the ball deep
into left field. This series was
slated to continue on
Tuesday, August .11 in
Bayfield.
Series winners will ad-
vance to the best of five 'A'

Sturgeon, Jeff and Roland, of
Orangeville, were at their
Bayfield residence for the
weekend. While in the
village, they had as guests,
Mr. and Mrs. Steve Rathwell

The Bayfield Fire
Department answered one
call last week. They were
called to the Phil
Gemeinhardt property just
north of the village where
they extinguished a pile of
burning brush. The fire call
was phoned in by the OPP,
who had noticed the fire
while cruising by. It was
later learned that Mr.
Gemeinhardt had lit the fire
with the intention of burning
the rubbish.
For the second time in less
than a month, a water skier
has been injured at Bayfield.
The unidentified skier was
taken by ambulance to
' hospital where he was
treated for shoulder injuries
and shock.
Residents of the Main
Street of Bayfield were
awakened at 3 a.m. on
Friday night when a
speeding car aroused them
by squealing its tires con-
tinuously for a timespan of
ten minutes. An act like this
is about as bright as a
smokehouse at midnite. -
