The Huron Expositor, 1970-09-03, Page 3An apology must be extended to the Parea 0 of the Bantam Ball. Team as their PiOttire not be run as a result of a misunderstanding. Coaches of area teams must realize that it.is not always possible qr convenient to have a photographer available at their lenge games and as a result 'the Bantams failed to appear when arrangements were made to have their picture taken. Teams and coaches in the area must realize that If the press is to co-operate and cover their games and stories then they must be prepared to co-operate also. No offence is directed to anyone 'connected with the Bantam Team but perhaps in the future better arrange-ments can be made. Turning to baseball the Industrial League playoffs are now underway and a gbod crowd of area 'spectators were given a good evening's entertainment last Monday might. It's nice to see use made of the lights at the Liens Park as the teams played two games •at the Park under the lights to provide plenty of excite- ment. The major leagues are sticking pretty much as predicted as each present Division Leader manages to hang on to, it s respective lead . Football, howei%er, has shown many early surprises as the Montreal squad has taken an early lead in the Eastern CPL conference while Toronto has had a very disappointing start. Tne big surprise -in the Western Confer-ence has been the play of the British Columbia Lions as they continue to press the powerful Saskatchewan Roughriders. A nerve racking experience was had by the referees during the' St. Columban soccer gams last Saturday when the spectators took exception to a penalty call against the, local team and provided London Roma with a penalty shot which eventually went into the St. Columban net and ^provided the London team with the margin of victory. St. Columban is at present one point in front of the London team but have a game in hand so possibly could move into the 1st Division- next season if they can continue to play heads-up soccer. A note .to local correspondents covering area sports - be sure and mark Clearly the teams participating and the final scores along with the date th e event took place and where the event was held.
