This amount will be supplemented by a similiar <sum from the Massey Fund at the College. That is to say, the ■successful candidate will receive $100.00 during his first year at Col lege. This amount should represent a large part of the first years' ex penses of a boy attending that in stitution. The conditions are briefly as fol io ws: 1. Applicants should be farmer’s sons residing jn Huron, County. 2. Applicants must be eighteen yeans of age on or before September 18th, 1931, the opening day of the College. 3,, Applicants may enter either ■the two year Associate or the Degree Course. 4.

Esbaugh, a- new comer to the Bend did the hurling duties and made a good job of It, Sweetlove was !on the mound for the losers and pitched a good game. It was quite »a pitcher’s battle as both had plenty of speed. This was Grand Bend’s first win in the second half and Exeter's second loss, This was the final appearance of fjweetl'ove, the pitching ace of the Exeter team, “Sweetie” as he is more commonly called left for his home in Hamilton on Friday evening. During the first half of the schedule he carried the pitching duties on his -own should ers and the team owes much to him I for their fine showing made. “Sweet ie” played with the Hamilton Sen iors before coming to Exeter and his ability as a softball pitcher in this league has yet to be equalled.

After that the local iboys steadied down and only three more runs were scored. The Exeterites scored their runs in the first two innings.
