WINGHAM, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JUNE 19Th, 1930 PERFECT BASEBALL DIAMOND AT PARK —THE SOFT ,BALL SCHEDULE PROCEEDS The 'Wingham Athletic Association were fortunate in securing the super- visory ' services of that Seasoned sports veteran, Herb. Campbell, to take charge of putting the ball, dia- mond in good shape, Herb had a thorough job made of it with the re- sult that soft ball will be faster and hard ball both faster and safer. Thanks, Herb! While the work of skinning the dia- mond was proceeding„ two games of soft ball were postponed. The sched- ule is now under way again and the games will be played regularly, :wea- ther permitting, The loss of their first game by the Shell Gas team did not worry them and. they met "Our Gang" on Thurs- day evening last with a determina- tion to win. The game was well played by both teams and spectators were well sat- isfied with the brand of ball sup- plied. Bill Brawiey, Jr., _joined the Home Run Club via the heavy hit- ting course. The determination of the Shell Gas nine produced results,, the game ending 16-7 in their favor. On Friday night the Fry-Gumas met the Foundry to play a postponed game. The Foundry team haveal- ways beenconsidered strong contend- ers for the title and Frank Preston, manager of the Fry-Gunns, was more than a little perturbed when he found he was going to be short some of his regular players. Walter,- VanWyck has a weak ankle which has tempor- arily forced him from the game and some of the other players were out of town. Rather than allow -the schedule to be further delayed: the Fry-Gunns used their substitutes, and in a game fight took the count at the hands of their rivals. The score was 20-14. Home runs of the game were made by Harold Mitchell for the Fry - Ganes and Orval : Welsh for, the Foundry. Shell Gas seems to have lost some of its power lately, on Monday even- ing they 'met the Foundry nine and came out on the short end of a 10-4 score. Owing to a light rain during the afternoon the . playing field was damp, making the ball .slippery and hard to handle: The crowd was not as large as at former games, but those who were there witnessed a real' good game. The standing of the teams is as fol- lows. Won. Lost Foundry 2 0 Fry-Gunns 1 1 Shell Gas 1 2 Our Gang 0 1 LUCKNOW PLAYS CONSERVATIVE NOMINATING TEESWATER GIRLS.
