This was the first roma for the Leg ionettee under the lights, and not be. ing used to 'them, it was hardly ex- pected that they amid play a good •game for tl}e first. The opening frame prove4 disas- trous for Blyth, when that ,Seaforth lassies counted eight runs. It was not 'because of errors, but due to the heavy) hitting of the locals that so many runs were scored. The Fawns connected for eight hits, batting around. The Legionettes kept in there fighting all the way,' but were no match .fir the locals. With the ex- ception of one frame, each team counted during their turn at bat. Doherty, D. McNall and Phillips for the visitors made some smart catches of. •'hard flies. A. Wilson, for the Fawns, made a smart running 'batch over her shoulder. 'There were sev- eral three -Mase hits by the visitors and two home -runs. For the locals, B. Case and G. Foster hit circuit clouts. Summary: pt. H. E.

The Fawns kheld their own against this team for the first few frames, but weakened in the last. It is not expected to have the play- offs arranged before' the latter part of nextweek, since a couple of post- poned games are to be played yet. On Tuesday night the Seaforth Bosharts were in Clinton and all we could hear was a whisper around town later that night and all day Wed- nesday. The reason, we surmise, is the fact that the locals lost their first game of the season, We didn't even hear what the score was, although they say it was close. It just goes to show that even a team on the bot- tom of the league standing can win over the top team some times. Be that as it may, it broke the Boshart's winning streak of 18 games without a loss. - We also understand that Clinton Radar defeated Clinton Flyers in a four -point game.

This should be an outstanding game . don't miss it , . . come out and cheer the Hurons on. In the Legid'n Juvenile Softball Lague there were several games play- ed during the past week. We learir- ed that the River Rats, of Egmond- ville, couldn't muster a team on Sat- urday night against Brucefield and so forfeited the game. It is not certain if they are dropping out of the league or not. Other games Inlayed were Wander- ers vs. Tigers, Sally Anns vs. Wan- derers, Dublin vs. Sally Anne. In the, first game' the Tigers de- feated the Wanderers 29-20. This game was fairly close with the Wan- derers putting up a stuff 'fight. Tigers' big frame' was the fifth when they scored nine runs. Wanderers came back in the sixth with six tallies, but were not just strong enough to beat the Tigers. TIGERS -R. Sutherland, s.s.; J. Flannigan, p.; Hubert, 2b.; R.

It was a close affair, being Wanderers 12, Sally Anns 10. Both teams played listlessly, showing little pep and it is hoped that in the future more spirit will be shown by the youngsters, especially the Sally Anns. Sandy McMillan clouted a homer in this game. SALLY ANNS-I. Carter, s.s.; F, Rowland, Sb.; Sills, 2b.; Milton, 1b.; Pullman, 1.1.; D.

There are few in the club who can equal or sur- pass the time and work he devoted to make it the beauty spot that catches the eye of visitors and townspeople alike. The ranks of those who pio- neered the building and laying out of 'the greens are thinning out. In 1929 the bowlers moved to the present lo- cation. At that time Ross made a scrapbook of news items that con- cerned and were of interest to the bowlers. This has been kept and each year serves a very useful purpose in carrying out the business of the club. It is a greathelp to each succeeding secretary. Not only in Seaforth, l'nt everywhere bowlers meet, `til; the passing of Ross be regretted. He was known far and wide as a worthy bowl- er, a true sportsman and a good friend. The record he -leaves speaks for itself. 'Cards have been sent out to all bowlers in Seaforth and to the sur- rounding clubs, announcing the Eosin' art furniture tournament for next Wednesday. There is very little doubt that it will be a success. A number of entries have already been receiv- ed and local bowlers report that ev- erywhere they have• been they have been asked about it. Quite a' number have been out of town lately. Last Wednesday eve- ning Mr. and Mrs. George Johnston and Dr. and Mrs. P. L. Brady were in Wingham. On Thursday evening Mr. and Mrs. George Johnston won sec- ond prize in Goderich. Others at Goclerich were Gordon, Muir and Mrs. E. H. Close, M. A. Reid and Frances Matthews, Erie Munroe and Thelma Forbes, Dr. Brady and Mrs. McMas- ter. Last Friday evening two rinks were in St. Marys: Eric Munroe and Frances Matthews • and Mr. and Mrs. George Johnston. On Monday George Johnston and Dr. Brady took in a tournament at Owen Sound. On Wednesday of this week eight bowlers competed at Wingham. They were: M. A. Reid and Melvin Reid, Lorne Dale and Jack Hotham, H. O. Free and M. McKel- lar, John Beattie and Harry Minett. On Tuesday evening of this week a local mixed took place. Those tak- ing part were: Mrs. John Beattie, Mrs. E. H. Close, Mrs. E. A. McMas- ter, Mr. and Mrs. George Johnston, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hart, Dr. and Mrs. Brady, M. A. Reid, Adelaide Jackson, Alice Reid, Chad Clew, Harry Min- ette, Rev. Hugh Jack, C. 'P. Sills, John Hotham, Lorne Dale, H. O. Free, Lorne Webb, Ken Carter, Chas. Bar- ber, Duncan Aikenhead, Eric Munroe. Peter Boshart, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Kaiser and Grant Finnigan. Three ladies from Seaforth will go to Wingham next Wednesday to de- fend the King trophy, won last year in that town. The King trophy was donated two year, ago by the King Department Store in Wingham. ' The first year a London rink won it, and last season the Seaforth trio brought it home. On Thursday of this 'week an open mixed doubles will be held. DUBLIN GIRLS WIN' 20-0 OVER LUCAN Behind the spectacular four -lilt pit- ching of Stapleton. league -leading Dublin drutil)pd l.ucan 20-0 in a W.O. A.A. Girls' Softball game at Dublin Thursday evening. Appleton hurled fair ba.11 on the mound for Lucan but her support vras weak. However, she was tagged for 23 base knocks, while walking two. The outcome of the game was nev- er' in doubt after Dublin scored three markers in the first inning. They tal- lied two runs in the third and sixth innings and crossed the plate no less than 12 times in a big fourth -inning rally, Lucan threatened to score only once in the entire game. That. was in the second frame when they had runners on second an& third with one out, but Stapleton fanned the next two batters. stir Costello and Dieteld h two and Hamilton and Jackson With one hit doubles in the gamer., Walt got the lone triple of the affair.

Before one of the largest crowds of the season, 'Winthrop and St Colu:tn- ban, in the first game' of 'the Huron 1'+'o0t'bali Asspciation finals, played to a. scoreless draw on Wednesday eve- nfng.'. . The players of both teams started out cautiously, but before many min- utes' were gone the Winthrop lads started to press St. Columban. The play went from end to end with no real chances an goal in the ,first half, despite a couple of corner -kicks. St. Columban missed one good chance to score when they, had the ball trapped in front of the Winthrop goal, 'but failed to score. In the second half the teams play- ed better football, each being,determ- ined to score. For a time St. Colum - ban had the best of it and came close, but during the latter stages of this half Winthrop came backs strong and gave the Irishmen e, real scare, but the goalie managed to hold out the kick and saved the day for the visi- tors. , The return game of the finals, in which goals count, will be played Monday night, Aug. 9, at 6.30, D.S.T., at St. Columban. This promises to be another real tussle and should be worthwhile seeing, as each team is determined to win this one and the championship. 1. TELL THE WORKERS (By R. J. Deachman) This story has been in my mind for a long _time. It has been listed in my advance diary and I have moved it forward on several occasions because something else carne first -now it must be written. All great public corporations put out statements at the end of the year ad- dressed to their shareholders, ,the men and women who provide the money which makes poss•ible the ere- ation, expansion and development of industry. The investors have a right to be told what was done with their money. There is something beyond this. It involves a wholly new con- ception of industry. The stockholders are not the only ones.who are interested. There should be a report to the workers. It would give facts, it would' show the number employed, . the total volume of wage payments, the increase in the volume of production per man and per man- hour. The last item is an index of progress. It determines individual and national income. Then I would carry this one step further. Both these reports should show the price level of the products produced and something of the price problem of the nation, for the con- sumers, those who buy the products, have a definite interest in industry and in what industry is doing for them. TheChange is Coming Just when I was about to write this story, The Steel Company of Canada, Limited came out with what I had in mind. It is entitled "What Stelco Did in 1947." Stelco is the short name of the Steel Company of Canada. Un- derneath the heading is thus sub -head, "A Report To Employees." It is a good report. The Company ought to be proud of it -so should the employees. It tells a tale of in- dustrial expansion -also of wage in- creases. If you were an employee you would like this sentence: "At the end of 1947 the average hourly earnings of payroll employ - OPS were approximately 70 per cent above such earnings at the end of 1939. compared with an increase of -12.9 per rent in the official Bost of living index during the same per- iod." I think this is important. It is worth telling. It is nice to know that the company had an investment in plant and equipment of $92 millions ;t: the close of 1917 and expects to have $101 millions by the Elul 0.1 1948. lt'hrn the workers see these state- ments they realize that they are not ceia,g to he short of equipment, and car,,; 'quipmmtit mattes the daily task hirr. 1 mention a third item, it's all Pet out in the report.

An army of workers is like an army in the field. It realizes the importance of artillery support, big machines which do the work.make higher pro- duction possible. A report of this kind enables a corporation to make a clear presentation, not. only of the work it has done in production but the im- portance of that effort to the workers employed. Men work better when they have pride and enthusiasm in their work. It produces an esprit de corps, an: elan which makes possible more work with loss effort. This is the essence of efficiency. The workers should know what the company is doing they should realize that they are not only working for but with the man- agement. When this becomes an Rs- t•ahlished fact in Canadian industry, the men will earn more, profits will be larger, prices will be lower. • Con- flicting as that may seem it is not im- pcssible providing there is wider in- telligence and, of course -good will.
