Smithson at sec- ond, base in the ninth inning prov- ed costly for the Meaford' softball club as Seaforth scored a run to win' a 9-8 fixture at Lions Park on Thursday last. This was Meatord's first loss in five games in the W.O. A.A. "Big Twelve" league. Seaforth started their scoring plays in the first when Bill Smith hit a home run with one on. Bell talliedi in the second frame to put Seaforth in front with a three -run margin. Wally Smithson counted for Meaford in the third. The fourth was a big one for Meaford with five runs scoring on five hits. SPORTS CHATTER (By WALLY) Where are the cheering softba fans? Is no one in Seaforth in- terested in softball any more? It -seems this way, after looking at the mere handful of fans that have been .on hand to see the Bosharts play! A team can't operate without some'kind of remuneration to pay expenses. This year's "Big Twelve" group would be satisfactory, and even better than previous group- ings,_ if the citizens would only turn out to the games. The Seaforth Softball Club is finding that expenses are higher due to the long trips and the never - failing rising prices. How can they continue to play? The answer lies only in larger crowds and a little more "home spirit." In six games played this year, the Bosharts have won four—losing tw•o to Wingham. Tuesday Seaforth travels to Goderich and Thursday they will play host to the Walkerton Club. Let's see la larger attendance at this game next Thursday. Come out and cheer for your boys. It's amazing what a cheering crowd can do to boost up the morale of the home club. What is the sense of playing sol••Iball to empty bleachers? Out of the total population of Seaforth and the surrounding district. sure- ly there are more than just a hun- dred people interested in this sum- mer sport! Seaforth fans made a very poor showing at the game with Meaford) Thursday night. Why should this be'? Meaford has a team that should bring all the "sports -blood- ed" citizens clambering to the gates to see them play. They were champions in the O.S.A. "C" finals last year. The game was one which kept the small crowd standing up, and jumping as the locals• kept tieing up the score, while Meaford would. strive to pull ahead, again. Only for a fumble (which could hiave happened to anyone) the game would have ended' in a draw and continued through a tenth innings. Anyone with the least, bit of "sports blood" in them should feel that they sadly neglected ,he local club by missing one of the most exciting games of the '51 season. Help keep Seaforth in the field of sports! Support your home club "through thick and thin"! (You can't, win every game; somebody has to lose sometime!) Errata) In last week's sports column we referred to the Wiarton team as the "Peter's Lunch" Club. This was a mistake. The Peter's Lunch team is from Meaford. Wiarton's team is called the Red Men. Runs by Bell and Panchok put the locals right up behind them, and a run in the seventh by Smith after Eisler doubled tied the score. Gormon and Smithson went home on an error to lead once again, but in the last of the eighth, Reist and Panohok came in on an error by the pitcher to make it eight -all. The locals held Meaford score- less in the ninth even though they had a runner on third base with none out. The final frame for the winners saw Huffman go down swinging. Jack Eisler was walked by Gorman. Then Gus Boussey struck out and Bell was walked, With these two batters out, Pan.- ohok came to bat. He sliced at the ball and knocked it down toward second base. Smithson dropped the ball and Eisler scored to win the game. O'Shea toiled on the mound for the winners, striking three out and walking two in seven innings Huffman handled the relief chores in the eighth and 'sent two down on strikes, walking one. Gorman went the route for the losers with four being fanned, while he gave out eight free passes to first. R. H. E.
