Belgrave girls lead series with Bluevale BELGRAVE — Belgrave juvenile girls took a 2-1 lead in the Tri -County Juvenile Girls' Soft- ball League best -of -seven cham- pionship series, Monday night. They scored a 25-21 win over Bluevale. Bluevale had won the first game 30-13 last Wednesday at home. Friday night in Belgrave the series was tied up when Bel - grave won 24-19. The fourth game was played Wednesday night in Belgrave while the fifth will be in Bluevale on Friday night. Both these games start at 6:45 p.m. because it gets dark earlier in the eve- nings now. Kitty Hartlieb was the winning pitcher in Belgrave's two vic- tories. Patty Scott was the big hitter in both games. In the second game she had two home runs. On Monday night she came up with the only homer of the game. VL •;r '�' L � .1 �'il ence there is wt ave o wal until September 2. The Canada Cup series, which will involve teams from Russia, Czechoslovakia, Sweden, Fin- land, United States and Canada is a completely new concept. Na- tional Hockey League and World Hockey League players from Sweden and Finland will be play- ing for their own country. NHL and WHA players who have taken out United States citizenship, or are originally from south of the border, will be playing for., the USA. .✓ Russia and Canada have dominated the hockey scene for many years and players -from other European nations have started to immigrate to Canada to seek a living in the game. Rus- sia has been able to keep all its players at home. Allan Eagleson, who is head of the NHL Players Association, and one of the most prominent figures in hockey today, has come up with a real "winner" in setting up this series. His biggest achievement was in talking the Russians and Czechs into playing a series against professional players. Russia has always felt it could compete on a level with, Canada no matter what type of player it came up against. In '72 and '74 it proved this was no idle boast. The Czechs have played exhibition games against the pros but have never,given the'impression they really wanted to go against a full nro club in a too series. Personally I don't think any. coach can take a group of 'stars' and make them into a complete unit in one month. No two teams in the NHL or WHA plays the same style of hockey. Each coach has his own way of setting up at- tacks and defence. I agree that the Team '76 man- agement has tried to set up the club in such a way that players who have played together ,on other teams will remain together, but getting the top 25 players for the final team personnel is a very difficult job. They have tried to have all 16 teams in the NHL, and the 10 teams of the WHA represented. This in itself is a touchy situation. There are some teams in the two leagues which didn't have a play- er really good enough to match the best of the other teams. I really don't envy the coaches their difficult task of choosing the team. It will, be on the manage- ment's shoulders to make the final choice. Whether that choice is right, won't be known for at least a month. What is known is, what- ever their choice, Canada won't walk away with the series. Sweden could make the out- come a surprise. They have already defeated the Russians in ah exhibition game. It was the players from the two professional leagues which made the differ- ence. Canada can't let up against any, club if they do they could wind up with "egg on their faces". 4 WINGHAM TYKES T -BALL CHAMPIONS wear the silver medals they won at Palmerston.
