PEEWEES LOSE
WOAA FINALS
TO WINCHAM
After a very successful season,
Clinton Shaws were forced to
relinquish the WOAA Peewee
baseball championship which they
won last year.
The local youngsters lost out to
Wingham Lions in a three -game
series. Wingham won the first
game in Clinton 8-4; Clinton
captured the second game in
Wingham 12-3; but the Wingham
kids came to Clinton last evening
and won the trophy by the close
count of 15-13.
Ironically enough, it was
Winghem that Clinton defeated
to win the title a year ago.

HURON FARMERS
HAVE HARVESTED
EXCELLENT CROP
"Farmers of Huron County are
extremely fortunate in that they
have harvested a very good crop
of grain," R. Gordon Bennett,
Clinton, agricultural represent-
ative for Huron County, stated
today.
Drought didn't affect this area
as badly as in some pasts of the
Province. Many farmers in other
sections will be hard put for win-
ter feed.
During the pact two weeks,
farmers have been harvesting a
hatter -than -average second crop
of hay. This will help build up
stocks wirier 'Were lacking after
a rather average first cutting.

Mr. Bennett stated that he had
been told by a number of farm-

very well and where it has been

pulling is the order of the day in
the southern part of the County

good. A number of turnips have

week and a half and a number
of patches are looking quite

during the past week lodged corn
quite badly, which will make it.
