Colts Start Playoffs:Tonight at RCAF
Exeter IVlohawks moved past
their playoff rivals, Strathroy
Royals, into third place when they.

the depiding game in their "B"
finals with the Royals if the series
goes the limit.
Steve Mitro and Bob' Russell
handled the mound duties for the
Mohawks and held the Colts to
four scratch hits. Mitro worked
the first five innings and fanned
ten men. He also connected for a
long home run in the sixth, a drive
that cleared the scoreboard in
deep'eentrefield, Fred Darling also
hit a home run for the home team
when he led off in the fourth.
Gordie Stock was on the mound
for Clinton and pitched a good
game allowing nine hits. Johnny
Hartley got half of Clinton's hits,
Johnny Wilson and Stock were the
other hitters. Clinton's biggest
chance came in the second when
they loaded the bases with two
men out, only to have Mitro settle
down and strike out the Clinton
pitcher to end the. inning.

Crop Report
(By G. W. Montgomery)
"What might be termed as a
"million dollar rain" fell in the
county early Tuesday morning,
August 3," G. W. Montgomery, ag-
ricultural representative for Hu-
ron County, reports. "This rain
was quite general and prospects
for cultivated crops such as corn,
sugar beets, soybeans, and white
beans are now much improved.
Pastures, hay aftermath and new
seedings are also showing much
improvement from this rain. •
"Harvesting operations are now
general throughout the county.
Harvesting of tall wheat is almost
completed and yields reported to
date have been excellent."
Huron. Approves
Wheat Scheme
(Continued from Page One)
Craise suggested an agreement
with the Minister of Agriculture
concerning a limit of acreage to
be placed on growers. Since a
two thirds affirmative vote of all
growers is required for the Board
to be formed, it would be essential
to have the number of actual
growers listed as small as reason-
able. He also advised a clause
stating that any who wished to
vote, even though growing less
than the prescribed acreage, could
be permitted to do so.
No Surplus
It was brought out in the meet-
ing that at no time had farmers
been able to find out what the
export price for wheat was. No
one had authority to obtain these
needed figures, and information.
For example in the spring the
trade had informed the nation that
there was an equivalent of the
1953 wheat crop still in storage.
,Now, as the local market is in
full swing there is no stored wheat
of any account to be found. Again
no one can answer, "Where did it
go?"
The Act provides for authority
to be given the Board for finding
out facts and figures from the
trade, the handlers of wheat.
Petition
Mr. Craise urged that for self-
preservation if for no other cause,
the Ontario farmer must take
some steps to protect his own
market. An interesting item men-
tioned during the discussion period
was that Ontario wheat is the
only "free" wheat in the world.
All other wheats are marketed
through government control.
The petition soon to be circulat-
ed is worded: We hereby declare
that we are in favour of the
orderly -marketing of Ontario win-
ter wheat under the provisions of
the Ontario Farm Products Mar-
keting Act and respectfully re-
quest the Minister of Agriculture,
the Honourable F. S, Thomc4., to.
grant permission for the taking of
a vote of producers on the ques-
tion of an Ontario wheat market-
ing scheme to be drafted by the
Ontario Farm Products Marketing
Board and approved by the On-
tario Federation of Agriculture
Wheat Producers Association.
At the meeting here, Tuesday
night, a good many farmers took
the opportunity :of signing this
petition.

Mitchell Midgets
Win First `Game
Group Finals, 3-2
Mitchell Midgets took advantage
of some loose play by Clinton in
the first two innings and, pushed
across three runs, which. were en-
ough to take the first game of the.
group baseball finals here last
Monday evening 3-2. The second
game of the series will be'pla/yed
in Mitchell on Friday evening.
The game was very close with
the Clinton nine vainly trying to
overcome the early lead. They got
one back in the fourth on a single
by Hugill and Garon's double; and
added another in the sixth on
three hits. Both pitchers, Coven-
ey and Hugill, pitched well, each
allowing seven hits, and had eight
strikeouts.
Garon was the individual hitting
star for both teams. Bob had two
doubles and a single in four trips.
Robertson hit a double and a
single for Mitchell.
