(By IbSA)
Dunton !Dolts,this ,town's and the
Huron-P'eitth League's representatives
in the ORA Inteiniediate "C" :play -
dawns, are now in the discard for
another year:
In the iihirdl round of the provin-
cial titular series, Acton's smart
team, champions of Halton County
League and conquerors of Walkerton,
won ,both games—at Acton ,Saturday
afternoon last by 12-6, and again in
Clinton Wedn'esd'ay afternoon by 13-
3:
Acton fielded a clever team which
fully deserved the honours. They
played like champions in both matches
with :Colts, presenting a powerful of..
fensive and' defensive, combined with
excellent pitching and team manage-
ment.
This writer and a lot of other
people who have been following the
Colts all season, would' just like to
know whether the Colts of two
months agowhen they were at .their
peak with an unbroken string of
vietoeiee to their credit—would have
taken those two lickings from Acton!
We firmly believe that the shoe
might have been on the other foot.
But it is a little hard to understand
how that fine baseball machine of
June or July, managed to deteriorate
so greatly in the past two months
---or did the other teams, improve at
a greater rate? Next year 5s another
year, so let's build for then and stop
these postmortems. In any event,
the club had a pretty' good year.
Acton 13—Clinton 3
Their own miscues and mistakes of
one kind or another had inuch to do
with the 13.3 defeats in Community
Park here Wednesday afternoon. The
weather was cool,acrd the crowd
chilly. Acton got the jump on the
Colts through a .mighty four -run
homer in .the third', when Kentnen'
cleared the loaded sacks with a drive
which went over Bill Glew's head
in centre field. Glew ran in on the
bald too soon, apparently, and he
missed it entirely.
After that, six big runs in the
fifth spelled defat in capital letters,
and saw Bab Draper leave the around
for Fred. MacDonell with the score
7-0 for Acton. But the latter could
not stop the visitingsluggers, either.
On the other ,hand, Pete Chabun,
showing plenty of "stuff", kept the
Colts' pretty well lashed to the mast
in the first 'six innings. His sidearm
delivery and "slider drop" hall was
really tough to hit. However, Bert
White managed to ,pick up ,three safe
singles in five -times at bat and Bob
Draper dusted hint for a single in
the sixth and also a long homer to
deep right to ,the fence with no one
aboard in the eighth. Woodcock,

Acton Tanners scored an' easy
victory in the first game of the
series at 'Acton Saturday afternoon,
defeating Colts 12-6 before a large
crowd,
The Tanners got away to an early
lead which they held throught. South-
pasw Bob Carrick, toiled on the mound
for Clinton, but after allowing three
hits and walking four, forcing in two
runs in the 3rd, retired in favour of
Girdon Stock, with two out. The
latter forced the third man at the
plate to retire the side. 134 held Aot-
on seorless for three innings but
weakened in the seventh and eighth.
In the meantime, Colts could do
little with the slants of "Lefty"
Ryder not a man getting to 1st in
the untial five innings. However, the t
Clinton erew managed to Shang out
eight safeties for six •counters in
the final four frames.
Acton's .commanding 7-0 lead at
the end of 'the 5th inning proved
plenty enough to win the ball game,
Clinton's rallies in the 8th and 9th
coming just a little late to do much
good.
The 9th started well with Art
Wood,eock's single, ,but Hugh Hawkins
pinchJhitting for Stock, bit into a
double play, short to 1st. Bartliff was
safe on error by 1Vlesales stole 2nd,
and 3rcl, and scored when Tanners
threw the ball around to get Boossey
stealing 2nd. The latter also tallied,
but 1VLaoDonald flied to short.
