It was Centralia’s home game. The win gave the Air Force revenge for the 22-6 trimming they received from Exeter in the openintg game, and they did it by pushing three runs across in the third, five in the fifth and two in the sixth and seventh. Exeter took the lead in the first inning. Niool walked, took second on a passed ball and scored on Smith’s single.

But in the fifth the Airmen began to wield the wil­ low and scored five runs. Hill’s triple brought in three of them. Penhale singled in the sixth and scored on 'Robinson’s double for Exeter’s third run. In the sixth, Penhale took over the mound chore from Morton. He walked the first two men, of whom later scored. Two were added in the seventh, on errors after Penhale struck out the first two men. Huchula was the winning pit­ cher for the Airport, toiling five and part of the sixth frame when Yaki took over the hurl­ ing. Between them they gave up nine hits. Morton started for the locals but developed a sore arm and Penhale took over in the sixth. They were touched for eleven hits. •Catrona with three singles in four, and Hill with a single and a triple, were key batters for the Airmen, while Nicol with a single in two trips and South- cott with two trips were best CENTRALIA Hannis, 2b ..

Terms on all equipment to responsible parties “WE SERVICE ANYTHING WE SELL” Buy Close to Service and Save Money A menu of flying spikes mixed with the kicking of ball players and a dash of umpiring that left much to be desired, concocted a sports dish at Community Park, Friday night that left a bad taste in the mouths of local fans who partook thereof.* * * fl­ it all came in the fourth in­ ning between the locals and their old rivals from the Airport. For a while, it looked like a dandy free-for-all with the out­ come that coach Boyle of the home team and catcher Burns of the Air Force s quad were banished from the -game.* * * a With the class of ball that ■both teams are playing they might well stick to the task at hand rather than divert their energies in such a way if they expect to have the backing of the fans. Most towns find it hard enough to get support behind a winning team and Exeter is far from being an exception. MAIT HAMMOND made an impressive debut in his mound efforts at the Community Park, Monday night when he pitched the local soXtball team to a 14-2 win over the Centralia nine. Baker and Baynham did the tossing for the the losers. * * * This practically winds up the first half of the schedule, with Exeter and Sharon tied for first place. The second half will be drawn up in the near future. * * * * ACCORDING TO the standings of the Huron-Perth, Hensall and Clinton are out in front, tied for first place. Both teams have won five games and lost but one. Exeter is in the third-last slot with a .2S5 average. St. Marys, last year’s champs, are dwelling in the cellar position, the rea­ son, we hear, is that Bob Graham, their stellar pitcher, and the two Noble brothers have switched to another league.* * a » So far this season, the Exeter club hasn't even their last year standing. The reason for -this has been puzzling to most of their supporters. With Em Pen­ hale doing some nice chucking early in the season -and the ad­ dition of Ross Morton, together with the help of the Holtzman brothers and Bob Dinney, should provide the team with a good mound staff. Then too, most of the players have had another year’s experience.* a a a However, tough breaks cost Em Penhale two wins and the tie game with Mitchell after leading 8-5 doesn’t add figures to the percentage. Then, too, the job of filling Jack Hennessey’s shoes at first base has meant a continual juggling of the lineup. Injuries in the catching depart­ ment, along with a lack -of hit­ ting punch, also hampers the team’s chances. « * * * Nevertheless, if the team can snap out of their slump ^and Ross Morton’s arm gets back into shape, the boys still have a fair chance of making the play­ offs. They have eleven more games to play, ■one more than half. What d’ya say, lads?* * * * WITH THE first of July at hand, it reminds us that the Exeter Turf Club will be hold­ ing its big meet on the 21st. The same four races will be run ■again with the British American Oil Company stake for three- year-olds, the 2.28 class, 2.22 and 2.17. The purses have been raised to $1,800.00 with an ad­ dition of another $100.00 to the 2.17 class which, along with the stake race, will divide $400.00. The other two are $300.00 purses.* * * * Last year proved a very suc­ cessful meet and, now with the raised purse and the additional grandstand, along with one of the finest ovals in Ontario, Exe­ ter should have the best race meet in her history.
