Here are some reflectlibas on the game which did not see ',the light of day on account of lack of space last week: After the game, some members, of the "hot stove league'were telling what they thought about it all:- There seemed to be quite an opinion that Bob Draper should have been sent in to relieve Bob Craig earlier in the seventh than happened; actually Craig had been pounded for a single, a three -bagger, two singles, and a double, in that order before he, Was taken out. • "Three -Star Selections" ' As this was the last' game of the season and we have a one- way ticket to Timbtctoo in our desk somewhere, we're going to go out on a limb, and pick a I "three -star" selection for each team. Here it is: For Caledonia — (1) Elmer Szabo, their really smart catch- er who knocked out four succes- sive single out of five trips to the plate; (2) Gibb, their heady relief pitcher ,whose smile and nonchalance hada lot• to do with his team's morale: and his double in the ninth, scoring two ahead of him, indicated his prowess in other ways; (3) Harrison, their rangy first -sacker, who caught! a lot of real tough•ones and also' hit for two. in five, including "the blow that killed the father," the mighty triple to right in the sev- enth with the tying run aboard and his own putting his team one up, For Clinton Colts (this may get us in wrong in more spots than one)—(1) Art Woodcock, smart third -sacker, who tried for every- thing that came his way, and the knocking down of one or two labelled ones, and had re o of Clinton's eight hits into the bar- gain; (2) The old reliable Bert White, centrefielder, who play- ed his usual head -up game of ball, win, lose or draw. His long running catch in the fifth mode Bert's legs really travel, and his two hits in five, including a per- fect bunt in the first, edded to his team value; (3) The hard- working catcher, Laurie. Colqu- houn, a modest young fellow 'whose deeds of "derring do" of- ten go unsung, He handled his pitchers well, and although not the slightest bit spectacular, con- trived to do a good chore behind the plate, as well taking time Toff to knock in Colts' second run ("Bud" Schoenhals) with a double in the fourth. Well, it was a good season, wasn't it? And perhaps there may be a "big night" or "some- thing',' to celebrate something or other before the snow flies and the hockey variety of Colts again race up and down the ice lanes. • o Many New Members Join Badminton Club • Play is .continuing every Tues- day and Friday evening by Clin- ton Badminton Club on the Town Hail courts, with a closing dead- line set at 10 p.m. on account of power restrictions, and, in ad- dition, only half -lights during the two hours. , It is homed to make up the deficiency in time by Seturday afternoon play - Following regular play Thins - day last, a meeting of members was held when the following com- mittee conveners were appointed with power to add: Rules, Doug- las Wheaton; property, Donald Symons; shuttlecock, Lyle Mc- Kee: assistant, Miss Helen Tay- lor Men's and ladies' captains will be appointed later, • 'the Club has quite n large number of new players th'. ea son, but thtre still are a f. w operants for l,eginners and oth- ers with scme experience.
