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, best of three series. They current! lead Seaforth one game to -zero, thanks t.o.:I 91 2 win last Friday evening in (Into!'
