CLINTON COLTS
ARE SHUT OUT
BY MITCHELL
The slants of 17 -year-old Doug
Aisteheson, the pitching "find" of
the season" who previously had
twirled a no -hit no -run game
against Zurich, proved too much
for Clinton Colts as Mitchell Leg-
onnairres shut out the Men of
Hawkins 5-0 on the Community
Park diamond Tuesday evening.
In the best game of the season.
Mitchell now leads the Huron -
Perth League in a tie with Lucan,
while Colts are esconsced in
fourth place, tied with .Clinton
RCAF.
The youngster limited Colts to
four safe bingles--faxen the bats
of Fred MacDonald, Doug Bart-
lpff, Harry McEwan and Bob
Draper.
The Legionnaires did not stage
any fantastic rally but kept peck-
ing away, with a run here and
there Their line-up again con-
tained that old veteran of many
Clinton wars—the evergreen Bert
White —at his favorite spot at
second base. He still is a towey
of strength to Mitchell, which
has been a different team since
he moved there from Clinton"
