According to Manager Russ Holmes, Wheatley won the first game of the series with the sec- ond scheduled for today. --If a winner is declared today then the winner will play in Clinton against Lions this Saturday 'af- ternoon. Clinton 24 -Dashwood 1 Saturday's match, with a fair crowd on hand and ideal base- ball weather prevailing, started oft like a ball game, but soon developed into a one-sided strug- gle, with the visitors never in the hunt. Wein was on the mound for Dashwood and pitched fair ball, but was wild in his throws to first and had poor support from his team-mates. He managed to fan 11 ,Clintenians in six in- nings, which wasn't bad going. Houlahan took over the_pitch- ing duties in the seventh, but he was wild as a march hare and didn't seem to have anything on the ball by a very mild prayer. He walked five, and al- lowed five hits and ten runs, be- fore giving way to Wein again, with two out in the same inning. O'Brien twirled in the eighth. For Clinton, Bob Carrick went the route and had his usual good record, with two safe hits against him. His strikeouts numbered 13 in nine innings and bases on balls six. Lions fattened their batting averages, Ron Carter having three in four official, and Terry Jen- kins four in five. Strangely enough, they were batting eighth and ninth in the order, which is something! With kid' ball, you never can tell what they're going to do next. One of these incidents was when a Clinton player tried to steal home without the signal being given by the coach. Naturally, he was caught cold, because the batter didn't hit as the runner apparently expected.

In fact, the Dashwood lads threw quite a scare into the Lions when they ran up a three -run lead in the first two innings. Clinton finally clinched the de- cision with a big four count in the last of the eighth. Carrick and Wein both hurled COLEMAN GIVES YOU MORE COMFORT FOR YOUR FUEL DOLLAR!

The season opens Wednesday, October 3, when election of of- ficers will take place, and will continue two evenings a week on the Town Hall courts until the end of April. Special classes for beginners will be held Monday evenings, 0 The Airwomen Report (Continued .from Page Nine) women is no exception. For the first week or so, they are re- quired to take part in same form of contact training. The Administrative officers are always needing extra help, and the various messes also absorb a small percentage of personnel until they start their respective courses. The girls feel that this kind of useful employment helps them to gain a gairly good know- ledge of Service organizations and procedures, before they be- gin to train for their particular branches. They feel that any experience gained will prove in- valuable in their future lives when they eventually leave the RCAF. The first of the few have al- ready been initiated into the classroom routine. They are finding the lectures interesting, just a little intense, but never- theless well organized. The in- structors have been found to be extremely patient and are always willing to give extra help if necessary. The RCAF may be proud that it's postwar pioneers are making every effort to gain the respect of their brothers in the Service. They ere determined to succeed and already a fine esprit de corps exists. The airwomen have come to Clinton with open minds. They fine) it a pleasant place, full of friendly people. They wish to express their appreciation to all who are making their short stay a happy one and feel that they will be as sorry to leave here, as they were when they departed from the Manning„Depot at St. John's, Que. 0 F/O C. A. Mason Heads RCAF Fish and Game A new slate of officers elected during the regular monthly meet- ing of the RCAF Station, Clinton, Fish and Game Club held last Wednesday. F/O C. A.

Webber who has also been transferred. The retiring officers were sin- cerely thanked far their hard 'work in organizing the Club and Were wished every success and good 'luck at their new stations. Members of the Club were very pleased to welcome the Com- manding Officer, G/C E. A. D. Hutton who attended the meet- ing and who is now a full-fledg- ed, active and very interested member. The President was happy to in- form the members that the Sta- tion Skeet. Range was now avail- able for use and that there should be no reason to miss the ones that seem to keep on flying mysteriously during the duck season. It was pointed out, how- ever, that permission of the Sta- tion Sports Officer should be ob- tained to use the range end that a Range Warden be appointed when shooting is in progress. Cpl.
