Clinton Plays Final Game
To -night With Winghain:
'Clinton won a 2=0 scheduled Bu-
ronPerth ball game from Kincardine
last Thursday evening. This win gave
Clinton a strong hold on a play-off
position. Cox for Kincardine had 12
strike -outs while Carrick, Clinton's
nioundsman, had six. Clinton made
six timely hits, to earn two runs,
while Kincardine's' four hits went
begging. Watson'made a sensational
one -handed catch in the fourth that
looked like a sure hit. Hawkins
stopped a beautiful fly in centre field
and converted it into a double play.
Clinton in alltrade three double
plays and this with timely hitting de-
feated a good, pitcher and errorless
ball on the part of the losers.

LUCKNOW 5--#CLINTON 4
Clinton's good (ball teamwas nor
good enough to defeat Lucknow on
Monday evening and lost a close de-
cision by a score of 5 to 4..
In the ninth Carrick tried to steal
home from third, the bases being
loaded with 2 out. Johnson for Olin-
. ton was at, bat with 2 balls the count.
Carrick was nipped at the plate and a
great rally went for lack. Hawkins,
Clinton's centre fielder, playing ;short,
made a wild pitch to first and Hovey
made a bad error on second. Even
with several errors the game was
close and exciting.
The win° gave Lucknow a fighting
chance for the play-offs. If Wing -
ham happens to beat Clinton toe
night, and Lucknow can win their
remaining games they can tie with
Clinton for second place, and thus
necessitate a play-off to .see who
would meet Wingham• in the finals..
McEwan caught for 'Clinton, Brant
pitched winning ball up till the sev-
enth
ewenth and was on the top side of the
score when he was pulled for Car-
rick. 11'or Lucknow, Finlayson and
Garden were the battery.
Be on hand at the local diamond
to -night at 5,80.. The Wingle= In-
dians are coming to try and scalp the
locals for the fourth timethis year.
The locals figure to turn the trick
this time, and we think they can do
it. These two teams .will meet in the
play-offs This is •Clinton's last
scheduled.game and a win to -night
will put them' in a tie for first place
with the Indians..

A SUMMER'S EVE

At to his well-earned rest
Th'o farmer wends his way.
Song -weary birds are still,
Within each leafy. tree-
A bat is circling low
And drowsy is the bee.
Serenely shines the moon
Upon the new -mown hay -
While 'down the meadow• lane
'Contented cattle stray.
Thus comes a sununer's eve,
With peaee-pervading rest,
And to my heart the jey
