Lieut. G. G. Agnew, RCAF Sta- tion, Clinton. A ladies' night is being held Tuesday, October 26, featured by a theatre party in London. These announcements were made et last week's dinner meet- ing in St. Paul's Parish Hall by B. B. Pocklington, chairman of Programme Committee. President J.1 George McLay was chairman. Rev. Stanley H. Brenton, Unit- ed Church minister for Londes- boro-Burns-Kinburn charge, the chief speaker, was introduced by R. S. Atkey and thanked by G. G. Agnew. He delivered a very' int- eresting and informative talk on the physical make-up of the earth, from the standpoint of a geologist, of which he was one, and made many remarkable statements of truths that are not realized. "Scientists believe that stones grow," Rev. Mr. Brenton declar- ed. `In all matter, they live and breath and possibly increase; there is no such thing as dead matter.- A geologist expects change." The speaker intrigued his aud- ience with a resume of the wond- ers of the Canadian shield, and with the statement that there were "solid mountains of pure iron in the Hudson's Bay area." Frank Finglond, KC., was the winner of the nightly draw. (jhan s v ♦ rv- I jFi: IUL 'o Kittle , cant o , ucb!

COLTS EKE OUT 6-5 VICTORY AT STRATHROY Backed by about 200 enthus- iastic supporters who proved of great moral value in lending their cheers, Clinton Colts came through with a close 6-5 victory z over Strathroy Dodgers in a floodlight baseball match at Strathroy Saturday evening. Down one run in the last of the ninth, Dodgers went to work with vigor. Topping knocked out a high tough one to Bert White in centre field, hut Bert was, on the job. Emmerson, pinch-hit- ting for Pincombe, hit safely through second. Locke also hit safely, advancing Emmerson to third with what would have been the tying run. The lead-off man, C. Evans, then knocked another hard one out to White in centre, with Em- merson poised on third for a dash to the plate as soon as the ball was caught. But Bert made a good catch of a hard ball and threw the sphere perfectly to Laurie Colquhoun at the plate. The latter tagged Evans for the third out and the game was over and the victory won. The hair- breadth finish was enough to give heart failure to any fan.
