In their first appearance here this
season, the Saffe lads secured an
early ,7ead^ butt finally succumbed to
the battering-ram tactics of Clinton
Colts in a Huron -Perth Baseball
League match in Community Park
Tuesday evening 13-5.
Bob Carrick started off very
poorly for the ultimate whiners, be-
ing wild in the first three frames
when .he walked five and hit three
battens, but was lucky enough to
yield only foul. Tums. He was pulled
out of a thole in the eighth with
some ,smart infield ,play, while ,Sad-
lei's double, followed by Balfour's
single, brought in Staffa's last count-
er in the ninth.
The turning point of the game was
in the last of the fifth when Neilans'
homer to deep leift drove MacDonald
and White in ahead of hien. Rifler
and Bonmsey had scored previously
in the second inning.
Colts had a six -run outburst in the
last of. the seventh on five safe hits,
a walk and two errors, and added
two move in the eighth for good
.measure when Bob Smiler, the visit-
ing hill man, weakened' badly, along
with his mates.

New Bridge Retarded
Because of Quicksand
(By our Bayfield correspondent)
The wet season has retarded work
on the approaches to the new bridge,
especially as the workmen have run
into quicksand on River Terrace. The
bulldozers have been bogged dawn
several times, and work has been
suspended temporily in a stretch
back of 3. E. Howard's property
down to Coliva Street,
In some ,spots here, the bank has
slipped and little streams .tire coursing
their way down the hill, 14 is thought
that a new survey may have to be
made in this stretch,
