For a last -place team, the
visitors . put up a surprisingly
good brand of ball, and if it had
not been for the Colts' big bats,
the result might have been dif-
ferent.
Ray Yelle and Carl Wein shar-
ed pitching duties for Dashwood,
while Doug Bartliff hurled a
three -hitter for the Colts, end
won the match despite rather
poor infield support; six errors
were perpetrated.
Colts' two lead-off men, Art
Woodcock and Bill Craig, cer-
tainly showed why they were at
the top of the batting order.
Woodcock had three singles in
four, end Craig three in three
plus a sacrifice for a perfect day
at bat. Bob Miller of Colts, with
two in four, was the only other
player to get mere than one.
For a title -bound club, Colts
told the whole wide world about
their main weakness—base run-
ning—when Hawkins and Miller
both got trapped between first
and second in the last of the
seventh. Just here is where the
lads need to pull up their socks.

Blyth Centre Fielder
Fractures His Wrist
While playing an exhibition
game of Ball in Goderich Friday
night, Don Johnston, centre field-
er for Blyth Speiran's Dukes, had
the misfortune to collide with a
wire fence, causing a fracture of
his left wrist and severe cuts.
Don, who is a valuable player
on the team, had made a nice
catch of a high fly ball; his speed
caused him to tangle with the
fence,
With the play-offs coming up,
he will be a great lose to his
team. His arm will be in cast
for at least six weeks and he will
be out of the game for some
time.

in tribute to his mother, Mrs.
Margaret Grace Maude Rhynos,
who gave' him the property on
his 21st birthday.
Mr. and Mrs, John Ferguson
were pioneer residents of. Bay-
field. When the Pioneer Park
Association was formed—it' was
hoped that memorial gifts would
be made by the descendants'of
early settlers. It is hoped that
the example of this very gen-
erouscontribution by Mr. Rhynas
will be followed by others who
wish to honour ancestral names
in or around Bayfield.
During the business session,
certain changes in the by-laws,
of the Association were ratified,
one of which allowed' for an in-
crease in thenumberof the
directors,
Reports Given
J. M. Stewart gave a report
of his interview with Stanley
Township Council regarding the
drawing of the rights of way
surrounding the property.
Charles R. Will gave a report
of the County Engineer's sugges-
tions and an estimate of cost for
draining the property as the first
step in the prevention of erosion.
J. M. Stewart and Charles R.
Will were appointed to make
further investigations re a plan
for prevention of erosion and re-
port to the board of directors.
They Were also given power to
act with the president in ar-
ranging for seats to be planed- at
intervals across the front of the
cliff. This would both accom-
modate the public and prevent
traffic close to the edge.
Directors Named
The report of the 'nominating
committee was brought in by J.
M. Stewart. Since there were
no other nominations, a motion
was passed instructing the sec-
retary to cast a ballot in favour
of the election of the following
