He covered the three mile distance in the slow time (for him) of 14.24.6 on the newly constructed Exeter cinder oval. The world record for the three mile is 13.23.2 and Pirie has been clocked at 13.29.8. The fact that all the other com- petitors were no match for the British speedster was probably one of the big reasons that he was not closer to the world mark.

Jim Atrill, strong right hander should be thetoast of Zurich to- day. : He brought the first Huron - Perth title to Zurich in many a moonwith a nifty one hitter last night on the Zurich diamond. To top, off his, neat pitching perfor- mance he scored both of the Lumberkings runs and collected two of the four hits given up by Bob Stormes, the losing Dash- wood flinger. Zurich scored the first of their two runs in the third when Atrial singled and came home on Zuy- bk's ''triple. The Lumberkings second • run came in the eighth when Atrill belted a long home run to drive the final nail in the Dashwood coffin. It was a great victory for At - rill as he won all four garhes for the Lumberkings in the important series between these arch rivals. Zurich will now advance into the OBA playdowns. Mitchell Legionnaires took ad- vantage of three errors by Exeter Legion Mohawks to post a 5-3 win in the first game of the Huron - Perth Baseball League Intermed- iate "C" finals.. The game was played in Exeter on Monday. Mitchell scored three unearned runs in Monday's win to take a 1-0 lead in the best -of -seven series.
