BY TD
The GDCI Junior Vikings
showed signs of promise in
their 14-0 exhibition football
victory over Sarnia St Clair
here Friday. Possessing a
combination of good size and
speed, the Vikings controlled
the game in both offensive
and defensive categ or ie s.
The Vikings jumped on top
in the first quarter with a 65 -
yard touchdown drive
- capped by a 14 -yard sweep
by running back Ed Craig. A
two-point conversion at-
tempt was unsuccessful.
In the second quarter, the
Vikings went for another
long march, engineered by
the strong running of backs
Ed Craig and Pete Stahl.
Their second touchdown
came on a 17 -yard pass from
quarterback John Thompson
to end Shawn Rahbek.
Another two-point convert
attempt was no good.
The only scoring in the
second half came on two
singles of 37 and 49 yards
kicked by Andrew Telford.
With the game well in hand,
Viking coaches Bill Garrow
and Bruce Baker were able
to make use of their large
crop of rookies who con-
stitute 21 of their 31 man
roster.
Although the coaches saw
lots of areas that required
work, which is inevitable
with early season junior
teams, the Vikings should be
a definite contender in the
Huron -Perth Conference.
GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23,1981—PAGE 9
Dear Betty
Well he did it again. Some help you were! 1 got a card and yes, money for my
birthday. Every year, the same. 1 guess 1 shouldn't complain it beats being stuck
with something 1 hate.
Last week 1 couldn't afford to buy anything for myself so 1 want to go back to
Gordon's Ladies. Wear in Festival Square, Stratford, to spend my birthday money :
on a really good outfit.
That Ports skirt and blazer was really sharp and not too expensive when you
. i consider the wear I'll get out of 4t. I also saw a really nice blouse that would match
perfectly.
Of course it won't be just that easy. 1'11 change my mind, as soon as 1 get loose
in that store. ,
1 do need a winter jacket,and they have really nice Utex wool jackets with
hoods,that are very reasonably priced. Or, 1 could go for a Mon di wool skirt and a
Parkhurst or Spanner Sweater , for quality, value, and style its really a hard decision.
Then of course, I'm always complaining about pot being able to get slacks
where the waist and bums are in the same places and proportions as mine. Mr.
Leonard slacks, always fit beautifully and Gordon's carry Mr. Leonard slacks ,
shirts and blouses.
Well, I've got supper to make ironing to do and Another World is about to
start- See you Sat.

Lakeport Ad. pulls it off
The McGee Pontiacs' 2-1 extra• inning
victory in game three of the GIFL finals
was short-lived as Lakeport Advertising
came back to finishjhem off in game four
by a score of 105.1.akeport wonthefinal
series three games to one.
The League congratulates Lakeport
Advertising's .new manager -sponsor. Ron
Harris, and coach Vic Whetstone on their
team's exciting and hard-earned victory.
Last Wednesday, . game three saw
McGees squeeze out a 2-1 win in the bottom
of the ninth and push the series to a fourth
game. Lakeport Advertising was on the
scoreboard first, picking upone run in the
opening inning on a double by. Greg
Hansen and Simon Langlois' run -scoring
single.
The lead held up until the bottom of the
first when Ron Klages scored after
singling, moved to second on a passed ball,
and came home on Paul Kelly's single:
Following a . brief: -rain delay, play ,
resumed but neither team mounted any
scoring threat until the eighth inning. Both
McGees and Lakeport loaded the bases in
the eighth, but both teams were unable to
score as Ken Daer and Simon Langlois
pitched their way out of the inning.
McGees pulled it out in the bottom of the
ninth when Paul Bartliff earned a base on
balls, and • then with two ,out, intentional
walks were issued to the hard-hitting duo
of Klages and Kelly to load the bases. Rick
Sowerby, :two for; two in the previous.
game, then.hammered a line drive past the
first baseman to win the game and force
the fourth game.
In the final playoff game Sunday, •
Lakeport Advertising erupted for 10 runs
on 11 hits and seven McGee errors to clinch
the deciding game and win the GIFL
championship.
Lakeport picked up four runs in the
bottom of the second on five consecutive
singles by Len Kolkman, Ron Corriveau,
AI Sygrove, Bill Gallow and Greg Hansen.
In the next inning they appeared to have it
all wrapped . up when they scored three.
more runs thanks to three McGee fielding
errors and a Bill Gallow triple.
However, the hardhnosed Pontiacs, the
power -hitting team of the GIFL, stormed
back with five runs collecting one in the
fourth, and four more in the fifth. In the
fourth, Rick Sowerby doubled to start the
inning and came home on, brother Ron's
single.
In' the fifth, the meat of the McGee line-
up notched four runs on consecutive
singles by Klages,. Kelly and ..Rick
Sowerby. Ron Sowerby then cleaned the
bases with a towering three -run homer.
Just when it looked as, if they were
coming. back, `McGees sealed their fate in
• the fifth when shoddy fielding contributed
to three more runs for the Advertisers and
'-a 10-51ead:. __
Ron Corriveau doubled to lead off;
Sygrove reached first on an error, and the
infamous' Bill Gallow stroked a triple to
score two. Greg Hansen, as he has been
doing all series, brought Gallow home with
a hard shot to the second baseman who
was unable to make a play.
Big hitters of the night were the
dangerous duo of Gallow and Hansen, who
reached base in their eight trips to the
plate. For McGees, the Sowerby brothers
and Ron Klages each collected two hits.
The winning pitcher was Simon Langlois
who collected his eighth win in 10 playoff
games.
As with most championship teams, it
requires a team effort to come out on top.
This year was no exception. When the
Advertisers needed the key hit, someone in
the line-up .came up with it. When the
pitching had to be there, • Langlois did 'it.
And when the big play had to be made, the
defence rose to the occasion.
Player .of the week
Greg Hansen of Lakeport Advertising,
who reached base seven out• of eight at
bats, came up wih key hits in the final two
playoff games VO win player of the week
honors.
Honorable inentions go to Bill Gallow,
who was on base five of eight times and
teamed with Hansen to spark Lakeport's
offence, and to. Ron Klages of McGees, this •
year's batting champion, for reaching
base six out of nine times over the last two
games.
