Exeter coasted along until
the fourth when they broke
loose to .overcome the two-run
lead that Dashwood earned in
the third. Four free bases, Rob
inson’s double, Brintnell’s triple
and singles by Holtzman, Tuck-
ey and Brintnell, who had two
hits in the one inning, gave Exe
ter the five-run margin. Carl
Wein’s double sent Higenell and
Lorne Haugh across home plate
for Dashwood’s two runs.
In the sixth Exeter again
took to the bases and combined
four hits for the same .number
of runs. Dashwood duplicated
the feat in the first half of the
eighth.
Exeter used three pitchers in
their winning efforts. Penliale
started hut retired at the end
of the third with a sore arm.
Dinney took over for the next
four and part of the eighth
when relieved by Harry Holtz
man. Dinney was the winning
pitcher. Carl Wein and Weiburg'
divided the flinging for Dash
wood.

Trounced by Clinton
Monday night’s game was a
different story. The Clinton
Colts pounced on four Exeter
pitchers and took advantage of
eratic fielding by their team
mates to run wild on the bases
for a collection of 31 runs. Exe
ter went scoreless until the fifth
when they got their four runs.
The locals couldn’t do a thing
right either in the field or at!
the bat. Fifteen players in all
saw action in the game in an
attempt to pull the team toget
her.
It was in the third inning that
the visitors let loose to score
eighteen runs before the side
was finally retired after four
Clinton players har batted three
times. They scored three in the
first, one in the second, two in
the fourth and seven more in
the fifth.
There were six triples in the'
game two by White and Schoen-

By “SCOOP”
It is to be hoped that the
Exeter hardballers got the bad
game out of their systems all in
one night after the Clinton epi
sode. With the exception of
some nice fielding and two'
walks in three trips to the plate
by third baseman Bob Nicol the
rest of the team went off the
deep end all in one night. How
ever 'the team minus theii’ pitch
ing ace have won two, tied one
and. lost three.

One cheery note lies in the
fact that Morton will be bacit

Penliale, too, is rounding into

against Clinton but was still
not back in his former stride.

THOUSANDS MORE FARMERS Will USE TRACTORS
uSe The new Canadian-made Massey-Hanis "Pony”
bec<* has opened up a great new market for tractors
One year ago, Massey-Harris introduced a new small tractor... the "Pony" . . . with a
full complement of mounted tools ... to be made in its Canadian factory at Woodstock.
Previously, all tractors used in Canada, were imported. Thus, Massey-Harris took two
important steps which are bound to play a big part in Canadian prosperity during ’
the years ahead.
The "Pony" opens up a great new market for tractors, both in Canada and in the
export field. The last Canadian census showed nearly 500,000 farms still without tractors
. . . many of which are small farms and market gardens where big tractor outfits are not
practical. And there are a great many more thousands of small farms in the United States,
in Europe, in Africa, and other countries where Massey-Harris products are sold. Almost
every Orte of them is a prospect for a "Pony”.
With the practical, economieal "Pony" thousands more farmers will be able to use
tractor power to do their work easier, quicker, and more profitably.
The manufacture of the "Pony" Tractor in Canada will provide jobs in the years ahead
for Canadian workers ... not only those employed in the Massey-Harris factory, but also
those employed in the industries which supply materials, parts and services.
The great and growing demand for the "Pony”, from the day of its first public demon
stration, is evidence of its real need and place in Canadian and world agriculture,

Well ,Mt. Ctirmel has done it
again. On Friday night they
cinched the top spot in tlieir
group by defeating the hard
hitting West Corners boys by a
score of 15-14. .Our boys have
won 11 out of 12 starts with
an average of 18 runs scored a
game with a 7 run average
against. The .team is made up
of all local boys and with a
little more experienced pitching
could go places in a higher
bracket than class C as they
demonstrated .when they admin
istered a sound shellacking to
the highly rated Crediton team.
Much of the credit for th&
team’s success can be credited
to the coach and manager Char
lie Regier, who has given so un
sparingly of his time. All the
boys have showed a fine team
spirit and played a good game.
We should give a slight
boost to that snappy little cat
cher Roy Thompson, who hast
contributed much to the .team’s
success. We wish the boys lots
of luck when they go into the
playoffs.
