The winners meet Wheatley for the Ontario "B" championship, possibly with the first game 'on Saturday. The Clinton kids did a good job in defeating Elora here Tues- day 12-4. After Shaws had run up a 6-0 lead, the visitors put across four runs in the sixth on three walks, a hit batsman, and two safe hits, to draw within two runs. However, the 'local youngsters found their batting eyes in the seventh and eighth and added two and four counters, respectively. Jerry Tebbutt, Clinton lead-off man, was best at bat with ,three singles in five, but Bob Carrick had twosafe ones and they were both homers—unfortunately with no one aboard. One came in the second and the other in the eighth. "Rickey" Elliott had two in three. Southpaw Bob Carrick shone on the mound for Clinton, with no less than 22 strikeouts in nine innings, but he issued seven bases on balls and hit one bats- man. Playford, for Elora, whif- fed 15 Shaws in eight frames. Despite the heavy rain of the night before, the diamond was in not bad shape, but there were plenty of puddles at the screen and elsewhere, demanding con- tinual drying of baseballs.
