Former Micheli Resident Dies John Avery, a former resident of Mitchell, died in Weston recently, He was a mason by trade and erect­ ed many of the buildings in the dis­ trict. Since 1926 he has lived in Weston as a mason-contractor. He was in his 79th year. Surviving are his widow, formerly Miss Emma Hazlewood, and ers Despite a lop-sided 11-1 the large crowd on hand at Cre­ diton to see the first game of the softball finals was treated to a fair game of ball. It is a best-of-three series to decide the champions of the South Huron men’s league. However, the Airport vow to take the next game on the Exeter dia­ mond on Thursday night and send the series to the limit. The boys of the Crediton gang were really hot for the opening game. The superb pitching of Wally Fahner had the Airport boys baffled and when they did connect it was usually for a fly ball which was easily taken care of. In the second, third and eighth only three hatters faced Fahner. He allowed but six hits. It was not until the last inning that Penaluna,'' the Air­ port’s lively catcher, saved them from a whitewashing. Sully, first up, struck out; Penaluna then came through with a single; Fahner struck out Ward and Richards singled aluna home. Greenfield struck out the two men to face him in the inning and Peden, the third up, grounded to short. In the ond, Crediton got two runs. Fahner, first up, got on on an er­ ror; Finkbeiner struck lO’tit an,d Smith singled. With the two men aboard, Lee singled both runners home. tn the fourth Lee brought in Smith and H. Hirtzel With his sec­ ond single. a bi# inning in the fifth first up, was walked got on,> Peden singled and with the bases loaded Wally Fahner singled. Christiana then replac­ ed Greenfield on the mound and walked Finkbeiner, the first man to face him. Smith and Lee got on and Christiana struck out the Hirt­ zel brothers to end the inning. Only three men faced Christiana in each of the sixth and seventh, but -Crediton got two more runs in the eighth. H. Hirtzel, first up, got on on an error. Lee singled. M. Hirtzel was struck out and Haist brought H. Hirtzel home with a single and 0. Fahner’s single sent Lee across the. plate. Errors proved to be very costly for the Airport. Christiana and Greenfield, who shared the mound duties, both hurled good ball but lacked support from their mates. For the Crediton boys, Lee collect­ ed three singles and a walk in four trips to the plate. He also drove in four runs and hawked four flies in left field. Levy for the losers got a two-bagger and two singles. The’ fourth time at bat out to short stop. I umpired behind the J Schenk on the bases.
