CLINTON LIONS MIDGETS DRAW WITH WINGHAM When Clinton Lions played a WOAA Midget baseball group match with Wingham Lions at Wingham Wednesday evening last, catcher Bill Nediger had his shoulder injured and was taken to Wingham Hospital to have it put back into joint. The teams tied 6-6 in six in- nings play, the game being cal- led on account of darkness. The count was tied 5-5 at the end of of the fifth, but Cam Maltby broke the tie in the first of the sixth after walking. However, Wingham came back in their half with a run by Sim- mons to tie it up again. The game ended with the bases loaded for Wingham and two out when Clare Maltby struck out Brophy. It was a close deal, and the Clinton kids considered themselves pretty lucky, especially as they weren't hitting the ball worth sour ap- ples, but they drew six walks and had a hit batsman.
