Draper Pitches Four -Hit Game LUCAN BLANKED 4-0 Stay-at-home fans missed probably the best ball game of,the season last Thursday night when the Irish Nine fom Lucan, group winners of last year, came to Clinton to receive whitewashing, Draper pitched the entire game for the Colts and received grand support from his team mates allowing only Lour hits in the entire game, walk- ing none, and striking out five. Ilucle son went the route for Lucan and pitched consistent ball with seven strikeouts, two walks and six hits. Lucan had four errors, ;Clinton otic. Clinton's first two runs were earn- ed on an error. J, Hawkins singled, Hudson walked White, H. Hawkins flied out to left field, Hovey's font was caught behind the plate and Daper's fly to first was fumbled by Murdie letting J. Hawkins and White home. Frown there up to the eighth inning neither team scored. Giew was the playmaker in the eighth when he buntedfor a base. J. Hawkins repeated the performance then Bert White drove them home with a beautiful three bagger. The base umpire's decision calling hint our smelled to high heaven. A heated debate followed between managers, coaches, urimiires, and players to make it interesting for ;the fans. Another highlight was Meadows of Lucan who on two occasions apeared ready to sweep the plate with Matthews, the. umpire. Lucan fans and players join- ed in giving Meadows the `razz' so Matthews decisions cduldn't have been so bad. The game featured some sensation- al fielding. Glew's catch in the sixth inning was made on his back and brought the fans to, their feet cheer- ing. Colquhoun'and' Neilans also field- ed ielded some beautiful catches while the infield scooped up everything com- ing their way. Hudson • also received good support, particularly from the infield with the exception of Murdie's lone error. Chowen was another or. - fender and Hudson assisted in R. Paul's mistake. Apart from these errors and a wild throw by Draper the game was exceptionally clean and well played. Chowen, Hudson and Burgess were the hitters for the visitors, Jack and Hugh Hawkins, White and Glees for the home team. Attendance from a local stand- point was not what it should have been --` a fact which was noted by some of the visitors, However, .if. the Clinton boys continue to play the class of ball they did on Thurs- day night there is every hope that the grandstand will be packed for future games.

Tot Wanders from Home An anxious three-quarters of an Ihour was spent late Tuesday morn- ing by Mrs. Gordon Scribbins search- ing for her 2 -year-old son who wand- ered'away from home while his moth -I er was completing her ensemble prior to catching the 12 o'clock train to' Stratford. l 'n-cious .inquiry from neighbours' revealed no trace of the little lad and soon a small posse of friends and neighbours were combing the nearby neighbourhood without avail: After hunting and inquiring for three- quarters of an hour the little lad was found almost four blocks from home heading toward Seaforth, pre- sumably hitch -hiking. to, Stratford to see the King and Queen. - On his travels ho had acquired a huge piece of cake which was receiving the at- tention it deserved and the youngster of •course was quite unaware of the anxiety he had caused his parent. )everything turned out well however and Mrs. Scribbins caught the train, secured a good seat near the platform in Stratford and was able to get t+ good look at the Ring and Queen.

Activities of the Local Catholic Church The mission which conciuded last Friday' evening with Solemn Benedic- tion of the Most Blessed Sacrament,' left an' impression on the congrega-� tion which will not easily be effaced. The Rev, Basil Doyle of the ?enlist' Fathers spoke twice a day during the! entire week, covering the general) field of Moral and Dogmatic Theol- I ogy, The salient feature of lus Breaching, - was his amazing facility.] for bringing the deepest theological matter within the comprehension of the rank and file of his audience, An interesting device which he used with telling effect, both in Clinton and Blyth where he had conducted a ims- sion the previous week, was the clues,.tion box whereby all and sundry were given an opportunity of. depositing their religious problems' and difficul- ties in a box at the back of the Church, when they would be given the authoritive solution of the Church just before the evening service. This feature is so obviously fair and ad- vantageous to the earnest enquirer, that the local Parish Priest has de- cided to continue it as long as there is a disposition on the part of the local public whether Catholic or non- Catholic to finis out whether through curiosity or through a sincere desire for personal guidance, just what the ancient and universal church teaches, in the all important realm of human belief and conduct, Questions may be written out and deposited in the box its the vestibule of the Church facing the front entrance, or they may be addressed to "The Question Box," St. Joseph's Church, Clinton, and sent :through the mail. All ques- tions will be studied carefully an answered the second and fourth Sat- urday evenings of every month at eight o'�glock" in St. Joseph's Church, Needless to say the questions need not be signed, and all questions of a local, personal, or non -religious nature will be disregarded. Holy Name Rally Next Sunday At three o'clock next Sunday af- teritoon the annual Holy Nance rally for the diocese 01 London will take place' in each of the twelve districts or" subdivisions. The local district comprises the parishes of Seaforth, Dublin, St. Coluntban, Logan, Blyth and Clinton, and the activities of the district this year will centre in Clin- on. The .ranks for the procession will form in'Athletic. Park, andi winnarch accompanied by the local band down the main street to St. Joseph Church, whera the lioly Name pled- ges.will be renewed and the sermon of the occasion will be preached. Alt the mete and boys'of.
