Seeond Loss To Milton Eliminates
Lumberkings From OBA Competition
The Zurich. Lumberkings packed
away their ball uniforms on Sat-
urday night after taking a 9-2
shellacking from the Milton Red
Sox in Zurich that afternoon, in
the second game of the best -of -
three finals for the OBA Inter-
mediate "B" series. The game,
which was played in the rain and
mud, took almost three hours to
complete, and went only seven
innings. Milton had won the first
game on their home field by a
9-7 score.
Lack of base hits proved to be
the downfall of the locals, as they
were unable to come through with
the big blows when they needed
them. At one time, in the fifth
inning, they blew a chance to tie
the game up, when they had three
men on base with only one out,
and failed to score a single run.
Milton opened the scoring
early, pushing two runs across
the plate in the first inning, when
they led off with a single and
triple, and had a Zurich error to
help their cause.
The locals made it look as if
they were in the ball game in the
last of the first, when they tied
the score on two Milton errors, a

base on balls, and a single.
In the second inning Milton
went three runs up, on two sing-
les, a double, and two bases on
balls. They added another in the
fourth on two consecutive sing-
les. The biggest rally for the vis-
itors came in the seventh, when
they jumped on Arn Meyer for
five hits, including a home run
over the right field fence with
two men on base.
Zurich only threatened to score
once in the game after the first
inning, that being in the fifth
when they had three men on base
and failed to score a single run.
John Hilson, on the mound for
Milton, gave up only five hits,
walked five, and struck out nine
Zurich batters.
Arn Meyer, throwing for Zur-
ich, gave up 14 hits, walked five,
and struck out seven.
Danny Trushinski was the top
man with the bat for Zurich, with
two hits in three times at bat.
For Milton, Shannon, their sec-
ond baseman, and Philips, their
first baseman, were the top bat-
ters, each banging out three hits.
The game was held up by rain
twice, first in the fourth inning,
and then again in the fifth. After
the second rain, play should never
have been resumed, as it was
much too muddy and dark to
continue.

Ontario Hydro, which finds
about 1,000 insulators shattered
by bullets or stones every year,
accompanied the warning with an
appeal to the public:
If you see anyone shooting at
poles or transmission towers, call
the police—for your sake and his.
Power was cut off to more than
3,000 homes and businesses in five
communities north of Toronto this
week because someone damaged

Special Award To
Dashwood Dealer
The firm of V. L. Becker and
Sons, Dashwood, have won an
award for the International Har-
vester dealer selling the most bal-
ers during the past season. Their
sales were the highest in West-
ern Ontario.
As part of the award Bill Beck-
er and his wife spent the past
weekend in Cleveland, on an all -
expenses paid trip. They flew
over from Crumlin on the TCA,
and also attended a ball game
while there,
Without knowledge of the dam-
age, Ontario Hydro had no way
of guarding against the blackout
when rainfall grounded the line.
It took about three hours to lo-
cate the trouble and restore ser-
vice completely.
The . power interruption might
have been much longer and more
extensive if a tower onthe high-
voltage transmission network had
been used for target practice.
Four teen-agers have been con-
victed and fined this year for
shooting at insulators.
The penalties might well have
been more severe if they had not
been juveniles, for charges are
laid under Section 372 of the
Criminal Code, which states that
"anyone who commits mischief in
relation to public property is.
guilty of an indictable offense and
liable to imprisonment for 14
years."

.gain Tenders Let
By Hay Council
The tender of Norman Hodgins,
RR 2, Parkhill, for the construc-
tion of the Zurich Municipal Drain
NTo. 2, was accepted by the Town-
ship council at a special meeting
last Wednesday night. The price
of his contract is $2,832.19, and
the work must be completed by
November 15.
Robert Rowcliffe, Hensall, was
awarded the contract for the con-
struction of the Stewart Munici-
pal Drain, at a price of $4,925,
and the work on this drain must
be completed by November 5.
In other business the council
accepted a drainage petition, as
presented under the Municipal
Drainage Aot, from Gordon Munn,
on Lot 11, Concession 3, and Ben
Tinney, Lot 11, Concession 4. They
gave instructions to C. P. Cor-
bett, Lucan, engineer, to bring in
a report on this drain.
ARE YOU SECRETARY OR PRESS
REP FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION ?
With the arrival of the fall sea-
son comes a resumption of meet-
ings of town and district organiza-
tions, associations and clubs.
Each of these organizations has
already appointed a press or pub-
licity convener, or will be doing
so shortly. This move is an im-
portant one to any organization
if it wishes to keep the doings of
its group before the public . . .
to let the public imow it is alive
and active.
It is impossible for the Citizens
News to attend and report the
many scores of meetings of such
organizations. That's where the
press secretary comes in. And an
organization gets publicity just
about in accordance with the de-
gree to which your press repre-
sentative is alert and doing his or
her job. Have you a good press
secretary in your organization?
Publicity conveners should keep
in mind the importance of turn-
ing in an account of their meet-
ing to the Citizens News as soon
as possible after the meeting is
held. Some are under the misap-
prehension that since the Citizens
News is published on Wednesday,
it's O.K., to turn their copy in on
Tuesday, even in the case of meet-
ings held on Thursday or Friday
of the preceding week. This is
erroneous. No copy is set for the
OBITUARY
Wal ter Johnston
A well-known resident of the
Bayfield district for many years,
Walter Leo Johnston passed away
at Clinton Public Hospital on Fri-
day, October 2, in his 44th year.
He had ,been a patient at the
Clinton hospital for three weeks,
and prior to that had been in
Victoria Hospital, London, for
two months.
Mr. Johnston served overseas
with the Canadian Army for five
years, and was a member of the
Canadian Legion, Clinton Branch
140. He was born in Stanley
Township, on October 23, 1915, a
son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
liam Johnston.
Surviving besides his' wife, the
former Alice Beaver, Zurich, are;
one son, Danny; two daughters,
Grace and Cheryl, all at home;
two brothers, Elmer, Galt, and
Ford, London, and one sister,
Audrey, Mrs. Angus McRae, Lon-
don.
The body rested at the West-
lake funeral home, Zurich, from
where the funeral service was
held on Monday, October 5, with
interment being made in St. Pet-
er's Lutheran Cemetery, Goshen
Line. Rev. W. P. Fischer, Zurich,
and Rev. E. J, B. Harrison, Hay-
field, officiated. Pallbearers were
Bert Greer, Melvin Greer, Grant
Turner, Victor Hargreaves, Mel
Graham and Joseph Wild.
Citizens News after 4 p.m., on
Tuesday of each week. Then, only
last minute copy is set and if ac-
counts of meetings held almost a
week previously are handed in on
Tuesday, they have to be sharply
briefed or left out entirely.
In short, it is advantageous for
press secretaries to get copy in
EARLY if they want their organi-
zation to have a full account of
their meetings in the paper.
Would organization presidents
please check on this point with
their publicity conveners.
