The Home Paper with the New Colts Eliminate Durham and Advance in J. A� S.uresid Bayfield Fair Bucks Of HartterdwarPe Group Rain 'and (By RSA) Although the elements were most ,unkind to the officers and directors of Bayfield Agricultural Society, the annual . Fall Fair yesterday indicated_. what could be done under very adverse -cir- cumstances. President Alfred H, ;Warner stated that the entries were just as good, if not better than in other years; that the attendance was better than might have been mended; and that rain insurance would be of some assistance. In cidentally, it started to rain at noon and it continued all after- noon. Competition was keen in most of the classes and the previous high standard of quality was maintained, Good School Showing Clinton District Collegiate In- stitute Bugle Band headed a large parade of school children to the grounds. As usual, the school fair section was one of the best features of the Fair with no less than ten schools from Bayfield (two rooms), Goderich Township (one school), and Stan- ley Township (seven schools); competing. After all the points had been totalled, it Was found that S.S. 1, Stanley (Baird's School, Miss June Miller, teacher), was winner of the shield donated annually by the Society. It was captured by S.S. 8, Stanley, in 1948, and by S.S. 4, Stanley, West, in 1947. Refreshment booths were op- erated by the ladies of the Unit- ed and Anglican Churches and Lions Club, and there was a County Museum exhibit. A horse race took place in the rain. There also were a few demonstration booths. Horses Good quality horses were ex- hibited. William J. Dale, Clin- ton, was top winner, with Elmer Webster, Varna, Colin Campbell, Bayfield, and Edward Deeves, Bayfield, also prominent. In the Percheron and Belgian class, Bruce Grigg, R.R. 1, Gode- rich, was top winner, with Don Middleton, Clinton, and A. W. Etherington, Hensall, also in the money. Elmereletemoyer, Dash- wood, had a fine yearling road- ster. Dairy Cattle Holsteins were most prominent in the dairy cattle section, Huron County Home, Clinton; Colin Campbell, Bayfield; and Arnold Rathwell, Clinton, sharing the honours. Irwin Trewortha, R.R. 1, Seaforth, showed Jerseys, and Wilmer Harrison, Goderich Town- ship, Ateelrires. Beef Cattle There were more beef cattle than usual. C, H.

Pasture conditions" are 'fairly good for this time of year, be- cause of the frequent rains this fall, commented Mr. Bennett. Mr. Bennett added that bean harvesting has been held up dur- ing the past week or so and a number of fields ere yet to be pulled and still others to be har- vested. Silo filling is almost completed.

The accid- ents happened only a few minutes apart. The first occurred when a car driven by Fit. Sgt. O. E. Bean, RCAF., southbound on highway, 4, and a second driven by Ken- neth R. Allln,"oderich, collided as Bean slowed to turn into the station. After the crash, which turned Fit. Sgt, Bean's car around, the Allin car crossed a ditch, and came to rest with its rear part on a fence. The car had to be pried open to free the drlver and his Wife. Bean end Allin were treat- ed at the RCAF, hospital; Mrs. Alla was taken to Alexandra Hospital, Goderich with possible head injuries and shock. In the second accident a car, driven by Hugh • R. Peterson, was about to turn into the station when it was struck from behind by a 1930 model coach driven by Leslie Dale, 16, Clinton. In the Dale car were Mary Handy, 15, Brucefield; Ruth Woolley, 16, Brucefield; and Earl McKnight, Clinton, all of whom suffered cuts, Holstein Executive Plans Functions Huron Holstein Club held a well -attended executive meeting at the home of Leonard Leeming, Walton, ' Tuesday evening, when plans were advanced for several important events in the life of the Club.

It was first announced that the Colts would tangle with Allen - ford, Brude County League "C" champions, but this was changed when Meaford caused a hitch through a protest in the Bruce League itself. The series between Strethroy and Clinton should be a replica of last year's clash. Veteran Heroes Forty-yeer-old Gordon Stock and the veteran Bert White, also in his forties, proved to be the heroes of the final game with Durham. When Doug Bartliff was eject- ed from the game by Umpire Schmidt in the third' inning for allegedly touching the worthy of- ficial while making a play at the plate, it was Gordie Stock who was 'called to the mound. And, at the time, he was the only spare player on the bench, se short were Colts in manpower. Bartliff's ejection did not seem to be deserved to many fans, and it left Clinton with just enough players to carry on. B!1l Craig arrived lefty in the. game from Stratford where he is attending Normal School, but the situation looked pretty grim. Playing Manager Hugh Haw- kins informed the umpire that the game would be finished un- der protest. Clinton was leading 5-3 at the time, Slow Motion Using his tantalizing slow ball, with curve and drop, Stock had the young Durham players break- ing their backs to swing. True, he got into trouble on more than one occasion, but managed to pull himself out through some smart head work. The first of the ninth, when Durham tied the score at 7-7, was his biggest headache, but he finally pulled through. The Fateful Tenth The victory was fashioned in the last of the tenth inning with • one out. Fortunately, the top end of the batting order was up when one little run -- and the decision - was so badly needed. Art Woodcock, the first man up, was out at first on a ground- er to short. Bert White stepped to the plate with fire in his eye and banged a three -bagger to deep left feild. Then Bob' Drap-' er, usually a long fly hitter, came to bat. It. looked as if he might pole a long fly to the field, thus allowing White to score from third, but instead he, snapped a . ground single to right between first and second that the Durham second -sacker couldn't get -. and he game was over! Waodchck's'Caleb Previously, in the first half of. the tenth, Weis had • singled to entre on a long fly that went stray in the:lights and mist, and ad stolen second. Stock fan - ed Long for the first out., Mace, noes then flied to Draper in deep entre, Weis going to third. Stock then deliberately walked May, le next, batter and he stole' sec- ond. 'The rally ended when Art V'roodcodk made a sensational catch, of a fly, deep in foul ter- itory away out from third base. was a tense moment and the big break of the game. • Clinton's Early Lead On the strength of successive ' homers in • the first inning by White and Draper, and three more tallies in the second, Colts went into a. 5-1 dead at the end of the second inning. Durham re- duced the !lead by two in the third, but Colts seemed to have an edge when they scared one in each of the fourth end fifth, The count then stood at 7-3, and four runs seemed to be enough to win.
