CLATWORTHY —- We Deliver — Phone 12 * Granton The Exeter baseball team opened the 1948 season with a booming 22-6 win over the Cen­ tralia Flyers at the Community Parle last Friday night. Their new pitching prospect, Ross Morton, showed plenty of promise in his opening start. The London lad has a nice fast ball that was working to advan­ tage against the airmen to strike out nine men. After five and a half innings of good tight ball the locals be­ gan pounding out Cook’s slants with regularity in the sixth to send fifteen men to score. Be­ fore the side was retired, catch­ er Don Hughes had three trips to the plate. In the. later part of the "inning, Glover took over the Airport pitching chore and fin­ Forestall Disaster Disasters come to everyone.

Let us explain them to you. o«i”oesU W. Herman Hodgson Residence -162J ** Exeter. Ontario The Insurance Man ished the game. Up until the disastrous sixth, it was any one’s game. The air­ men opened with two runs when Catrano scored on Burn’s triple while the Airport second base­ man came home on Hannis’ sin­ gle. Exeter got the two runs back when Robinson and South- cott, the first two batters, scor­ ed. Neither side scored in the se­ cond but in the third Robinson hit his second straight single and scored on another from Harry Holtzman’s 'bat. In the first half of the fourth Centralia got one back when Morton walked Han­ nis, who advanced to second on Hyslop’s sacrifice and scored on Haime’s single. However, in the last half of the inning, Hughes doubled and scored when Cooke muffed How­ ie Holtzman’s grounder, Holtz­ man scored on Morton’s single. At the end of the inning, the score was 5-3 in Exeter’s favor. In the fifth and sixth, Centralia scored a run in each. Hannis and Catrano both got on on a walk and both scored. In the last half of the sixth, Exeter’s bats began to boom for the big fifteen runs. Hyslop scored for the Airmen in the eighth, while the locals added two more in the same frame when Robinson and Southcott both doubled and scored.

Yes, more food is available for the world today when its heed is desperate, because Canadian farmers with only a two-thirds increase in numbers over 1900, are growing 4/2 times as much grain, producing 2/t times as much milk, feeding twice as many cattle and 2/2 times as many hogs, raising 5 times as many chickens; because they are providing food for 2/2 times as many people in Canada and exporting 30 times as much wheat and 10 times as much flour. HMORE BREAD FOR THE WORLD Massey-Harris Combines enable one man in one day, to harvest wheat for 55,000 loaves Farmers are doing it because individually they produce more today than in 1900, but it means hard work. And there is no harder working group of people in the world than the Canadian farmers. But hard work alone would not be enough to accomplish such results. They do it by a combination of hard work and modern machinery. Typical of the great, efficiency-increasing machinery of the farm today is the Self- Propelled Combine, pictured above, which Massey-Harris first introduced in 1939* With this machine, one man can cut and thresh enough wheat in one day to make 55,000 loaves of bread. Modern farm machinery has increased the productive capacity of Canadian* agri­ culture to where it provides an abundant surplus for the needs of those in other lands, and makes andrhportant contribution to Canada’s great export trade. Similarly Massey-Harris machines are helping to increase farm production in 72 countries of 6 continents.

While still & little short on conditioning, Ross was tossing them up in fine style for the nine innings, striking out nine men and allow­ ing eight hits. * * * * Morton has a peppery fast ball and according to catcher, Don Hughes, the Exeter mound­ man has a neat curve to mix in as well, although it wasn’t breaking Friday night as in practice. * * * * Just what happened to the opening ceremony we did not hear.. From the local standpoint it was the only thing that marr­ ed the debut, although it would be better if the fans would stay in the bleachers rather than crowd the baselines. However, the team did get plenty of sup­ port and the gate amounted to over a hundred dollars.It was a good show on the part of the district fans. «0 • « This week the team has twoimportant g a m e s. Wednesday night they play on their home diamond against the Clinton Ra­ dio School and Friday night they will journey to Goderich. It is quite likely that Emerson Penhale will get the starting nod for Wednesday night’s game here, although this has not been definitely decided, as yet. * * * THE SOFTBALL team repre­ senting Exeter is starting out in fine style this year with three convincing wins* IBo** ■hind the fine tossing of Eddie Sears, the boys took Grand Bend 14-3 Friday night, and won from Crediton 17-4 Monday night. .Sears allowed but two hits in Monday night’s game. The team doesn’t play on their home diamond until Tuesday, June 18th, when they meet Hen­ sall.* * * » LAST WEEK we erroneously reported that, it was Doug Grant doing the hurling in the Airport Intermediate "A” softball game.
