6 BEDFORD IN TOURNEY
Hotel Bedford scored just five runs in
three games and gave up 13 but they still
came up with two wins as they clinched a
tournament berth.
On Tuesday, French scored four runs in
the first inning and went on to beat Bed-
ford 10-0. Wayne Kennedy walked to open
the game and was bunted to second. Rob
Plunkett then walked George Sutton, Don
Bogie and Dave -Patterson to force in a
run. Ed Johnston then Cleared the bases
with a triple. French then scored two in the
third and four in the sixth. George Sutton
drilled his third homer ofthe year with a
shot into the wind that hit the top of the
fence and rebounded over. Not something
you could do twice in one season.
Bedford played perhaps their worst
game of the season, managingjust five
hits while committing nine errors but they
came up big when they had to, scoring in
Sunset Club
the bottom of the seventh to edge Signal -
Star 4-3. Signal -Star tied the game 3-3 in
the sixth when Kevin Meriam doubled and
scored on an error. Bedford won it in the
seventh when Del Mitchehnore singled
with one out, moved to second on Hary
Crawford's bunt and scored on Jim
Crawford's single. Crawford had two hits
for Bedford while Steve Frayne had two
for Signal -Star.
Garry Peters opened the -game witha
triple and scored on the play and pitcher
Rob Plunkett made it stand up as Hotel
Bedord blanked Denomme's 1-0. The win
clinched a tournament spot for the Bedford
and gives them a lock on second place, a
great improvement from last year's last
place finish.
Plunkett gave up just three hits as did
loser John Verway. Ken Straughan had
two hits for Denomme's. The loss,
Denomme's third in .a row, makes their
chance for a tournament position slim as
they must win their remaining two games.

OOin Civic Holiday Monday,
August 2, the week started
with a bang -a shotgun start,
that is as nine teams took
part in a "Texas Scramble".
For many of the men, this
was a new game, so it was
particularly challenging and
enjoyable. In a Texas
Scramble, on each hole, each
man of the four -member
team drives off the tee. The
best drive is selected. Each
player then plays his second
shot from that position.
Again the best shot is.
selected with each player
contiunuing from that
position. Each subsequent
shot involves" the same
selection routine, which
means the team can come in
with some fantastic scores.
And they did!!
In first place, with a score
of 63 was Mike Murphy's
team. Playing with Mike
were Bill Lumby, Ralph
Neville and Don Edward.
Placing second, with a score
of 65, was Steve Durst's
team, with Ken Hall, Dan
Murphy and Jim Baird.

Dave Cornish's with 66;
Mike Paquette's also with
66; and Al MacDonald's and
Bill Brown's teams both
scored a 67.
