Sail away
I learned a very valuable lesson this past
weekend. I will never be harassed into tak-
ing my girlfriend on a world cruise, and
she'll never, ever ask me to take her sail-
ing (again).
Now, if you're wondering exactly what
this might have to do with sports, give me
some time and I'll try to explain.
To begin with, you have to realize that
she is very susceptible to motion dizziness.
I'll call it that since it isn't really motion
sickness. For instance, if I just playfully
weave the car on an empty road, she gets
the old head spins.
Therefore, when a friend asked us if
we'd like to go out on Lake Ontario in his
sail boat this weekend, and Jackie- ac-
cepted, I was more than a bit wary.
Even after pointing out to her that she
almost became ill on a trip on the Chi-
Cheemaun, she still insisted we should go.
After much cajoling by Jackie and my
friend Stace, I (against my better judge-
ment) finally decided to go.
After all, it would certainly be a new ex-
perience for me as I've never gone sailing.
Anyways, sailing time, Sunday after-
noon, rolled around fairly fast, and by this
time I'd prepared myself to go out and
have a good time.
Once on the boat Stace assured us his
boat, After Glow (Afterglow?), was un-
sinkable, and pointed out that he had yet to
lose one friend while out on the lake.
Now here's the part I like. Remember-
ing that Jackie talked me into going, I'll
tell you that we hadn't been out for more
than 10 minutes before her head started to
go on her.
Her ailments went from having to lean
her head on something to feel alright, to
having to lie down to survive.
On the other hand, reluctant me had a
great time. After motoring out of Port
DAVID EMSLIE
Credit Harbour we headed parallel to the
shoreline for a bit, before deciding to head
straight out onto the lake.
To tell the truth, I never thought this
sport could be that much fun.
Although whipping along with the wind
in Stace's 26 footer was thoroughly en-
joyable, I think the part I liked best was
getting way out in the lake, dropping the
sails and just floating.
If anyone ever feels the need to get away
from it all, this is surely the way.
We even took the risk of swimming in the
lake. Anyone who has visited the beaches
in the Toronto area will realize what a risk
this is, as many of the beaches close during
the summer because the water just isn't
clean enough.
However, I doubt we took much risk with
our swim way out there, it has to be
cleaner out there.
Jackie, by the way, missed the swim too.
We could hardly get her up off the bench
seat where we had laid down a little couch
cushion for her.
The day also proved to be somewhat of a
learning experience. Did you know, for in-
stance, that Lake Ontario drops to more
than 600 fathoms deep? I didn't.
Translated into figures us land type people
can understand, this means the lake is
over a mile deep in places.
I also learned a bit, a very little bit,
about sailing. I can now tell the difference
between a main sail and a genoa sail, and I
know which way to push a rudder to turn a
boat.
On the other hand, I also learned that It
is difficult to stop a 26.4 foot boat from
crashing into the dock with a strong wind
behind it. Fortunately another boatman
was walking past when we docked, and he
stepped into help.
Sunday will definitely rank as one of the
high points of my summer. As for Jackie.
the persuader, I doubt she has the sato
feelings. There must be a moral there
someplace.
Apology
I'll apologize right now to any re;1i
sailors for my abuse of the nautical
language. Perhaps I should have been
writing down the right words when n1�
friend was teaching me, but that's no \1 n \
to enjoy a sunny Sunday.
Bowling Begins
Well, the indoor bowling season is once
again almost upon us. We received a bit of
a note from the Thursday night bowler , se
I'll just pass it on as is.
"Thursday Night mixed bowling Ieaeue
starts Thursday, September 3, 1987. One
week only for averages. New bowlers
welcome."
Hockey Playoffs
One more thing to pass on here. 1",:u1
hockey playoffs start this Thursda; nicht
at the arena at 7:30 p.rn. They wi;l con-
clude on Saturday afternoon.
Pee Wees fail to
On August 8 the local Pee Wee squad met
Durham in the first round of the OBA quali-
fying tournament held in Walkerton.
Clinton bats connected for 12 hits, in-
cluding two home runs by Shawn Chipchase
and one by Jason Carter. Scott Mc-
Clenaghan held Durham to seven hits in
posting a 17-6 win.
In the second game, Mark Livermore held
St. Marys to six hits as Clinton won 10-7. The
local squad collected 10 hits with Scott Mc-
Clenaghan delivering a single, double and a
triple. Shawn Chipchase had a single and a
triple, Scott Jewitt had a single and a dou-
ble. Mark Livermore, Rob Consitt and Dan-
ny Wildfong each collected singles.
In the third game Clinton came up against
the tough Walkerton squad. Rob Consitt pit-
ched three and % innings before getting help
from Scott McClenaghan and Mark
Livermore.
In the bottom of the seventh Clinton found
qualify for OBA tournament
themselves on the wrong end of an 11-5
score. The local squad mounted a determin-
ed rally. Mike McClenaghan and Graham
Adams drew walks and Jason Carter flied
out to third. Mark Livermore delivered a
single, Scott Jewitt also singled, driving in
one run and leaving the bases loaded for
Scott McClenaghan who slammed a triple
driving in three more. Shawn Chipchase
drew an intentional walk. Rob Consitt came
to bat representing the winning run. Rob
promptly drove the ball hard towards the
shortstop who made a fine catch and doubl-
ed the runner off second. The Clinton boys
came very, very close to pulling it off.
The second day of the tournament was
postponed due to ram and rescheduled for
August 16.
Rob Consitt started against Hanover in
the fourth game of the double knockout
showdown. The Hanover squad scored twice
in the second. It wasn't until the sixth inning
that Clinton was able to get to the l L11101 411.
hurler for three runs. But the tough 1e:1111
from Hanover replied once in the top elf the
sixth and twice in the seventh off Scott :vie .
Clenaghan who came on in relief.
In the bottom of the seventh Clinton could
only manage three infield grounders as tIIc•)
went down in order, bowing out el the
tournament.
Not only did Hall pitch a fine game or
Hanover, but he also contributed two triples
and a single to help his team-mates adv:iii e
against Walkerton.
Although the Clinton Pee Wee's are
eliminated from further OBA play, they ar e
now preparing to capture the WOBA cham-
pionship tournament to be held in Listowel
on the August 21, 22, and 23 weekend.
But first they must get by Seaforth u,
