R.C. Chaplain Honored;
Posted To St. Hubert
The home of Sgt. and Mrs.
Delair was the scene of a de
lightful occasion on Saturday
evening when members of the
R.C. Chapel gathered to honour
their chaplain, Rev. Fr. J. P.
Davignon. Fr. Davignon, who
has been stationed at Centralia
for over a year, will leave short
ly for his new post at R.C.A.F.
St. Hubert, Que.
The farewell address was read
by little Elaine Gueillmin and a
spiritual bouquet presented by
little Guy Delair. Fr. Davignon
also received a Ronson cigarette*
case and lighter combined from
the Delair -family.
Completely taken by surprise,
Fr. Davignon thanked the con
gregation for its co-operation'
during the time he was stationed
at Centralia!!
A delicious luncheon was
served by the hostess.

Three District Championships
Exeter ball clubs this * year
claim three district champion
ships. , The girls, who probably
made the best showing, won this
grouping Of the W.O.A.A. and
then were put out by .Kincardine
in a close series.
Derry Boyle's Bantams were
the firSt Winners of the new
cup presented by Wally Wein
for winning the district baseball
league, More recently the Legion
softball nine popped the zone
honours by defeating Goderich.
They took the last game by a
convincing 19-9 score at Gode
rich.
All im all, it looks like a
pretty fair showing for the ball
activities in Exeter. The hard
ball team was the only other
club that represented this vill
age. But enough of that. Their
showing that is!
Worse Than Ever
One thing we do think is
worthy of mention, though,
cerning the baseball team
that concerns the dance
was sponsored recently. It,
was a flop and would have
even more so but for the .gener
osity of Tuckey Beverages, who
contributed the pop for the re
freshment booth, Another thing
we did notice, too, and^that was
the absence of most of th.6 play
ers on the team. Those putting
in an appearance could be
counted on one hand. The fin

Going Great Guns
The Exeter Badminton
we understand, surpasses
thing yet since the game
taken up in Exeter. There is no
lack of both enthusiasm and
membership. In fact, the fact,
the executive is planning on us
ing the arena occasionally.
Let’s Hope It’s The Same
It’s to be hoped the hockey
club has the same luck. Early in
the season it appeared as it
there was little enthusiasm for
badminton and the new organ
ization now is a real surprise.
At the hockey meeting the other
night there was but a handful

Wednes-
Ladies* League
The Exeter Ladies’
began its schedule on
day, October 26, with ten teams
entered in the league. Checking
over the scores after the first
two night’s bowling, there ap
pears to be some good prospec
tive bowlers among the ladies
and, if I may be so blunt, some
not so good. Anyway, go to it,
girls, it’s a good game and you
should have a lot of fun.W
The Lucky Strikes, captained by Velma Harvey, ran into’some
trouble when they met the Mus
keteers of Alvira Blommaert,
with the result that they
salvaged one point of the

(201).
In another set, the Happy
Gals met the Jolly Eight. At the
end of tile .games the Eight were
not too jolly, as they lost all
four points to the Happy Gals.
Captain June Grayer topped her
team with 5? 9 (203), While Dot
Freeborn was best for the Jolly
Eight with 503 (184).
in the final match Wednesday'
evening, the Frisky Sisters tan
gled with the Sorority gals, and
polished them off 4-0. Captain
Peggy Hunter-Duvar of tlie Sis
ters led her team with a triple
of 530 (260), while Ruth Hess
topped her tehm with
(222). Ruth, by the way,
the only triple of over 600
the evening.
Thursday Night
On Thursday night, the other
four teams swung into action,
with tlie Hot Dogs meeting the
Rookies and taking all points.
Arina Brock with 564 (198) led
tlie Dogs, while Joyce Dawson
of the Rookies had 525 (201)
to lead her team.
In the other games, the Yarn
Spinners must have been telling
stories to the Housewives and
«.keeping their minds off their
minds off their bowling because
they took all four points from
them. Lois Brintnell of the Yarn
Spinners was tops with 572

of that Reg McDonald has ad

he lent a hand with the girls’

Should Go Somewhere
It’s plenty early to make pre
dictions but we think the lads
who are organizing into a junior
basketball squad should put up
a real showing in the O.B.A.
Gord Farrow is coaching the
team and he has a lot of good
material to work with. Last
year’s outstanding school basket
ball team is well represented on
the junior squad which has been
working out regularly the past
few weeks. The members are
buying new uniforms and equip
ment from a Laz-y-Boy chair
raffle.
It's Hallowe’en night and a

Bronson Line Man
Caught In Shaft
Allan Steckle, Bronson Line,
Stahley Township, was injured
while husking ‘corn with the
tractor on his brother’s farm.
The picker became clogged and
with the tractor in gear, he tried
to release the machine, and his
clothing came in contact with
the power take-off pulling him
behind the shaft. It kept winding
him up and he was pinned so
tightly it stalled the tractor
engine. His nephew Billy Steckle,
heard his screams, summoned
help. He received deep cuts on
his legs and his chest was
bruised. Dr. .P. J. O’Dwyer, of
Zurich, attended.
