Top Ontario racers exect;ed at
Hully ully holiday weekend
Riders from all over the
Province are expected to
converge on Hully Gully,
near Varna, for the Labour
Day Holiday Special
motocross races on Monday,
September 5. This special
motocross race is CMA sanc-
tioned. ( The Canadian
Motorcycle Association, or
:.... _ .CMA, is the major governing
.body in Canadian Motorcy-
cle Racing, and their sanc-
tioning means that liceenlsc.d
racers will be coming in to
compete for valuable points
in the CMA series.)
Besides those riders,
many of the Hully Gully
regulars will also be there to
fight it out for the Bully Gul-
ly High Point Awards and
other prizes. The fierce com-
petition that usually accom-
panies a CMA race will
guarantee spectators an ex-
cellent showing this Holiday
Monday.
Riders begin practice at 9
a.m. with all-out racing star-
ting around noon. The action
stays hot all day into the
finals, beginning approx-
imately at 3 p.m. All classes
from School -Boy up to the
Senior and Expert level will
be represented, premising,a
different kind of racing ac-
tion with each race.
Motuci ass racing is the
most skill -oriented of any of
the motor sports. Racers
must deal with a very
deliberately prepared
natural course. It's one of
the most physically deman-
ding sports, and motocross
racers are better condition-
ed than any other motor
sport racers. They must deal
with jumps, quick turns, fast
straight-aways, uneven and
loose surfaces, and of
course, the fierce competi-
tion of the other riders.
Over this season, Hully
Guly has provided both
riders and spectators with
some of the best racing
anywhere in Canada. Bully
Gully was the site of this
year's Canadian National
Senior Motocross Champion-
ships, and the last CMA
sanctioned event on the Civic
Holiday weekend brought
Canada's top racer, Ross
Pederson from Medicine
Hat, Alberta, as well as five
B.C. racers.
Hully Gully is just off
Highway 4, between Clinton
and Exeter, and south of
Highway 8.
Beginners' series
set at Hully Gully
September 1, marks the
first races in a series design-
ed to introduce more people
to the thrills of motorsport
competition. Hully Gully has

No upsets in Goderich
fastball playoffs, yet
Excellent pitching dominated the first
week of playoffs. Unlike other years, the
playoffs thus far have been upset -free as
the top four teams have won all their
games.
First place Hotel Bedford put their late
season skid behind in grabbing a quick 2-0
lead in their best of five series with
Lakeport Steel. They opened the playoffs
with a 2-0 shoutout on Rob Plunkett's four -
hitter. Brian MacKenzie also pitched well
despite losing, giving up two unearned
runs on six hits. Plunkett and Dave Mac-
Donald each had a pair of hits for the Bed-
ford. -
In game two, Bedford scored four runs in
the fourth inning, which was enough since
Plunkett pitched a second straight shutout
with a one -hitter. Gary Peters, Glen
Falkiner and Del Mitchehnore each had
two hits for Bedford. Carman Fielder's
leadoff single in the fifth broke up.
Plunkett's no-hitter.
Simon Langlois' fired two two -hitters
with Denomme's. Lakeport scored a cou-
ple of unearned runs in the second inning
and held on for a 2-0 victory. Lakeport only
managed four hits off John Verwey. Mean-
while in game two, Lakeport mercied
Denomme's 12-1 in six innings. Greg
Hansen, Simon Langlois, Arnie Parker,
Bill Gallow and Al Sygrove led Lakeport's
14 -hit attack with two each. Simon
Langlois belted a home -run while Larry
McCabe added an inside -the -park homer
for Lakeport.
The closest game of the playoffs occur-
red between Kirkey's and Canada Com-
pany with Kirkey's winning 5-4. Ron
Klages drove in the winning run in the bot-
tom of the seventh with a single. John
O'Keefe, Brian Shewfelt and Bill Tigert
each had two hits for Canada Company.
John Lehay and Klages had two hits apiece
for Kirkey's. The win for Kirkey's broke a
nine -game winning streak Canada Com-
pany had over Kirkey's the last two years.
Hayter's scored earlyand often in
defeating French 7-1. Dave Scholl pitched
strongly, throwing a two -hitter and giving
up one unearned run in the first inning.
Hayter's scored two in the first then ex-
ploded for five in the second, the big hit be-
ing Scholl's bases -loaded double. Scholl
and Jim Ginn led Hayter's with two hits
each.
Pee Wees take 1-0 lead in playoffs
The Goderich Legion Pee
Wees defeated Kincardine
10-2 to take a 1-0 lead in the
best of three series in the
W,O.A.A. playoffs.
Goderich took a quick two
run lead in the first inning
with runs by Scott Garrow
and Bill Whetstone, who
reached base on balls. The
second inning saw both
teams score two runs.
Goderich's runs were scored
by Tom Durnin, Tim
Harrison, Scott Garrow and
Bill Whetstone.
Garrow, Whetstone and
Scott Homan went on to
score three more runs in the
third for Goderich, giving
Whetsone one single and
three runs. Garrow,
however, did not finish
adding points to his record
until the fifth inning, giving
him two, singles and four
runs for a nights work.
