Clinton News-Record, 1950-06-01, Page 8PAGE TWELVE SPORTS JUVENILES LOSE OPENING MATCH TO DASHWOOD Entering the top of the fifth and what proved the last inning, Clinton Lions Juveniles were nursing a six -run lead over Dash- wood in the. opening match of the WOAA- juvenile baseball series on the local' diamond Sat- urday evening. Then something happeped, and before the smoke of battle had cleared away, the visitors had tallied seven runs and had gone into a one -run lead with a count of 11-10. Yelle went into pitch for Dashwood and held the Clinton kids scoreless in the last of the frame, although Toby Taylor was on third with the tieing run. Chief reason given for the up- set was the changing of several Clinton players in the last inning. This strategy of depending on a large lead back -fired badly, it would Seem. Thus, the truth of the old adage that a ball game is never, over until the last batter is out was amply borne out.

Clinton Legion Loses First to Exeter' Men Clinton Legioneires dropped their first game in the new Legion men's softball league to Exeter on the RCAF diamond by 14-8 Tuesday evening. Both teams showed plenty of promise, and the calibre of soft- ball in the remainder of the schedule should be of good quality. The Legion team is the only men's softball team playing here this year, and the vets are at- tempting to revive it after two or •three years' absence.
