The fourth inning, Scott, .pitching for Guelph, was a very temperamental lad and was peeved like a child, of four when Silvertowns got to him for foto• runs in the fourth, Palmer who replaced him in the 5th, had a pecul- iar slow ball that was effective. Tommy Jardine was on the mound for o the local gang and pitched a good game and also hit two home runs. The Guelph crew are a snappy club and it was a treat to watch but their. ever -objecting tactics did not go over so well. • Harold Mitchell and Brown can play much better ball than they did in this game. Harold has played very little this year, but with some prac- tice would be right in there. Merkley's outfield was not so hot in spots and this did: not help mat-/ ters any. Silvertowns A. ]3. R. H.

Every town puts up with this more or Iess, but Wingham in this respect seems to take the cake. A ball team requires support and anyone, who is employed, and can't get 25c worth of entertainment out of a ball game h' s cul d stay at home.--Lucknow Sen- tineI. Only Hide and Tallow w Left Frank Turner, of the township of Alderston, lost a calf after a most perculiar manner. Mr. Farmer ad- vertised for it in the paper and he thought it strange that he got no tid- ing of his property after a couple of weeks. However, walking through a field located some distance from the farm building he discovered the fate. of his calf, Some one had butchered it and parcelling up the legs and the hide had carefully hidden the roll un- der a clump of grass.—Allison Her- ald. Seven Eclipses in 1935, -- In the Year 1935, which is not so far in the future, the world is to be treated to a heavenly show which no yuan now living can recall ever seeing before. From January to December there will be seven 'eclipses, five of the sun and two of the moon. This is the greatest possible number of eclipses than can happen in any one year, and it is 1,28 years since the ev- ent has occurred. The last time this series of eclipses took place was dur- ing 1805, when Lord Nelson won at Trafalgar. As far as Canada is con cerned,"the interesting thing about the seven 1935 eclipses is that five for certain and possibly six of them will be visible from various portions of the Dominion. Old Timers Lost to Supertest Supertest took Old Tuners into camp last Thursday by the score of 19 to 7. It was all over in the third' inning when. Supertest scored 12 runs off Templeman who pitched for Old Timers and the errors which were plentiful' also helped. Harold Mit- chell held the gas boys down for the last three innings. Supertest will likely secure a place in the play-offs and if they do' will give Prudentials and Ingharn's a run for their money. Supertest: " Elliott 2b, B. Mitchell ss,• Herb.
