Although the Stangs managed only a 6.6 tie against Woodstock Navy Vets in exhibition play last Sunday aright, and dropped their first exhibition game against NorwichMerchants 7.5, they played well enough to win both games. The Mustangs tried out some veterans and rookies in both games while Woodstock and Norwich played their regular teams that they will start the season with. In the Norwich game, veteran Larry Daer led the Mustangs with three goals, while Bill Peters. and Roger Lewis notched the singles.

Every year • this book seems to include just a little more data, and now, in its 73rd issue, it is a fu11576 pages long. Thee book starts off with an interesting series of ar- ticles including - The Indestructible Saturday Night • : Special - Mr. Brownings Ageless -Autoloader - Black :Powder Renaissance - A New Look at Light Slug Rifles Gun Control: Can It Work Great Weapons Museums of the World, The Springfield Armory Museum - Ballistics Made EasyCanada's III -Fated Ross Rifle ;Varmint Hunting in Miniature More Do's and Don'ts of.HomeeG' tlping (an excellent,eraft *scribing .can be"done at home' while also-ream- ' mendingdse jobs which are best left'to the skilled hands and specialized tools of a gunsmith) - and Kaives That Sheet.... and Other Firearms Oddities. All in all, • it's a real.information packed first section, and that's onlythe beginning. 'The'articles are followed by a reference section wbicii lists Weapons and Military Museums of North America (yes, even in Canada you say) - Where to Hunt What in the U.S. and Canada - Federal, State and Provincial Agencies Concerned with Wildlife Protection and Exploitation - Organizations and Associations of Interest to the Hunter and Shooter - The Shooter's -Bookshelf - The Shooter's Magazine Rack - anda listing of Firearms Curios and Relics. Next comes the specifications section which provides hours and hours of enjoyment. In it is listed just about every firearm manufactured today with a complete description and photograph of the firearm along with all the technical information you require including price. This is the most complete listing of firearms I have ever seen, and lets you do 99 per cent of your shopping in your own armchair. Once you've picked out the rifle or shotgun of your choice, you can go on to examine scopes, mounts and open sights that are available on the market today. You can compare factory loaded ammunition by the excellent ballistics charts provided, and examine the full range of bullet weights. available. If you reload, it's one of the few places where I've seen almost all the different components listed together with complete descriptions. If you need it, or even think you might want it, chances are it's listed here somewhere. And, to top it all off, this book contains one of the most important features of all. How often have you read about some wild and wonderful tool or accessory, but were completely stymied when it came to actually locating the manufacturer or distributor of this item when you tried to obtain one. I've run across this problem more often than I'd care to admit, but the Shooter's Bible puts a handle on that for you as well. The latter pages of this book list the names and ad- dresses of the manufacturers or suppliers of all the items shown in this book, so you can at least have a starting point when you go looking for a specific item. If this sounds like the book you would like to have in your library, ask for it at your local bookstore, gun - shop, or drop a line to Stoeger Trading Company, 165 Idema Road, Markham, Ontario, L3R 1A9 to find out how you can get one. I've found it to be an excellent reference book for my library and would recommend it to everyone. One word oi caution, however. It must be realized that the prices quoted in this book are U.S. prices, so you have to take import du ' and exchange into consideration at all times. Ot rwise, when you rush out to actually purchase some ing listed in it, you may' be in for a big shock. It does, however, give you an xcellent frame of references to work in. Bill Robinson.

Remember - if we do get some nice days the club house will be open until the end of October. Last Thursday, the ladies were rained out for their final week, but no one's spirits were dampened, as Shirley had prepared a delicious. closing, dinner. We all had the feeling we were in a little Italian resturant. Thanks Shirley, it was a nice way to close our year. Thora then told -us how we could lose all those extra in- ches, and Mary Lynne said she hoped to try out Thora's suggestion , and if it works we'll all see the results on Hallowe'en night. Birds are champs again Some detractors think the Clinton Men's Industrial Fastball League should be renamed the Bluebird League after the Birds won the championship for the sixth year in a row last week by beating Lobbs two games to one in the final series. The Birds won the first game 10-2, lost the second 9-2 and came back to take the third by a 11-3 count. The Birds had gained the final by beating the Ex -Cell - 0 team in the qua rte r finals and then getting a bye into the final. Lobbs had gained the finals by taking a semi-final series away from Meiners who had beaten Goderich Township in a quarter final series. A wind-up banquet for the league will be held this Saturday night when trophies and awards will be given out.

AUTHORIZED RADIO SHACK SALES CENTRE Have year-end -banquet The Central Huron Ladies Softball League players hung up their gloves, put away their bats and finished A good competitive season of play with their annual dinner and dance last Saturday at the Legion in Goderich. A new league executive was formed last February comprised of president Hugh Hodges from Clinton; secretary Cindy Bazinet from Goderich and treasurer Pat Boak of Lucknow. Several innovative and new procedures were instituted into the league constitution. Upon completion of schedule play the standings were: Housewives 21 points, Elevators 20, Art's Land- scaping 20, Sailorettes 14, Noisy Ladies 13, Gold Diggers 12, Superstars 9, Sluggers 3. First round playoffs found all teams battling it out and going the full three games each, with the first round winners being Housewives, Elevators, Noisy Ladies and Sluggers. In playoffs, the A division finals found the Clinton Housewives and .Goderich Elevators playing the full five games before the divisional championship was decided, with the Housewives once again winning. The B division cham- pionship finals involved the Lucknow Noisy Ladies and Clinton Sluggers. In the last game of the series the Noisy Ladies won the trophy, but indeed it was a tight game that wasn't decided until the eighth inning. Each club nominated team members for awards. The . winners were as follows: Most Valuable Player for the season, Elaine Phillips (Elevators), Brenda Pollock (Art's Landscaping), Mary Haak and Jill Cooper (Gold Diggers), Marianne Wells (Sailorettes), Nancy Ferguson (Superstars), Judy Draper (Noisy Ladies), Gail Daer (Housewives).

All in all it was a good season with the teams becoming more competitive. 1982 should prove to be a great season with other teams trying harder for the silver trophies of cham- pionship.
