Zurich Mets win one;
The Zurich Mets played
three games in Huron -Penh
Baseball League competition
during the past week, and regis-
tered one victory against two
losses. Last Wednesday night
they came out on the short end
of an 11-6 score to the Clinton
Colts, and then on Friday night
they trounced the strong Thorn -
dale Angels 7-1. Sunday after-
noon at the local diamond they
suffered one of their worst losses
of the season when they were
humbled 9-2 by the Dashwood
Tigers.
Two home runs for Clinton
proved to be the big difference
on Wednesday nights game as
five runs crossed the plate on
the two plays, Clinton banged
out a total of 10 hits off the
combined offerings of John
Mommersteeg and Aubrey Bed-
ard.
For the Mets Ron Corriveau
led the hitting attack withtwo
doubles, while Don Ayotte
chipped in with one double and
a single. Gerard Charrette and
Kevin McKinnon both came
through with doubles while Rich
and Schilbe connected for a
single.
On Friday night Dick Bedard
came through with an outstand-
ing performance on the mound
for the locals, as he gave up
only four scattered hits to the
powerful Thorndale club. He
Plan for children's future;
speaker tells Federation
At the regular meeting of
the Huron Federation of Agric-
ulture the guest speaker was
James McGuigan of Cedar
Springs, who is an executive
member of the Ontario Feder-
ation of Agriculture and among
other important posts holds the
position of president of the
Ontario Fruit and Vegetable
Growers Association.
Mr. McGuigan lashed out at
fanners who downgrade their
business and in doing so alien -
late their own children from a.
life that, with all its shortcom-
ings, has much more to offer
than an eight to four job does.
On the cost of food, he stated
that much has been said about
the capacity of the farmer to
produce more food on the same
land.
Mason Bailey expressed fear
that with Huron County's agric-
ultural zoning, some farmers
are losing, because land that
was worth quite a bit of money
before zoning, is now locked in
agriculture and means a loss to
the owner. If society demands
this zoning he stated, the owner
should be compensated by this
society. This is OFA policy.
