a 3-2 score. Franklin Electric
broke the 2-2 tie with a run in the

hitter. Zurich picked up six hits.
Rick Schilbe and Brian Hodgins
had two hits each, while Paul

up one apiece.
Zurich's second game was
against the Hawks. A strong pit-
ching performance by Brian
Hodgins led the Buckeyes to a 4-0
victory.
Zurich scored two runs in the
first and fifth innings, to account
for their four runs. Zurich's first
two runs were scored without the
benefit of a hit. In the fifth the
team scored two, as Pat Bedard
singled, then scored on a double
by Ken McKinnon, who in turn
scored on a double by Ken

by Bob Farquhar and Brian
Hodgins.
In the B final Blythwood scored
a run in the fourth on a walk, two
pass balls and a single. Zurich

by the catcher.
Blythwood regained the lead in
the sixth on a double and error
and a bunt single. Zurich was
unable to tie the score in the
seventh. and lost the game 2-1.
CORRECTION
It was incorrectly reported in
last week's paper that Pam
O'Brien of Zurich (above) was
second runner-up in the Bean
Queen contest. Pam was first
runner-up and Deb Creces, RR 1,
Dashwood, was second runner-
up. Sorry about that girls.
Brian Hodgins again went the
distance for Zurich and pitched a
fine four -hitter despite the loss:
Leading the Zurich hitters -were
Steve Bedour and Wayne Clarke,
with two hits apiece, while Cliff
Gingerich picked up the only
other hit.
For finishing second in the B
division, the Buckeyes got $25.

Save electricity,
save natural ounces.
About a third of
Ontario's electricity is gener-
ated by burning fossil fuels...
coal, oil, natural gas. The price
of all these natural resources
is increasing rapidly. The price
of coal, for example, has
tripled over the last five years.
Higher fuel costs inevitably
show up in the price you pay
for electricity.
Save electricity, and
you'll save money. You'll also
be helping to conserve dwin-
dling natural resources for
other important uses...
transportation, agriculture,
chemicals.
