On/Monday of last week the

good many thousand trout of fin/

Lucknow, Wirigham arid Tees^

located to each community. These,

GODERICH DOVk^ED LOCALS
8-1 LAST WEDNESDAY
. ..............- r
“ Woefully weak at 'bat1,, plus
some careless looking catching,
were the two big factors in God-*
erich trimming Lucknow Legion
naires 8-1 last'•Wednesday night
before one of the biggest crowds
of the season. .
Sdm6 atrocious umpiring high
lighted the fixture, and while the
defeat couldn’t be blamed on the
inefficiency of the umpires, it
d id figure on the score sheet. t
Harvey Krueger who handled the
game,1 and they roused" the. fans
to a pdint where they remained;
around to add some-, personal
words to. the cat-calls that were'
hurled during the game.
The handling of the Port Elgin
and Goderich games in Lucknow,
were both glaring examples of
the need for some high calibre
umpires in this fastball circuit*
St. Marie’s major error came
in the fourth, when Pinder clip
ped a /foul. Nobody moved/till
Miley ran in, claiming that Mann
had clipped his bat. Gborge wav
ed Pinder to first to fill the sacks.
He later scored. ' ■ • /
^AslLone.Lfan_.put_Jl^thjei^
gave a 3-D demonstration—dim,
durnb and distorted.
The score was: 3-1, and looked
like riiighty,. tight ball g§me un
til that 4th innihg rhubarb; when
the visitors scored twice. From
there in Lucknow Jwent ‘hitless,
and in the 8th and 9th,. Goderich
added three more on a pair of
triples, a’single, passed ball arid
an. infield out, to; complete, the
rout. "

SPORT...
LET HALL GO,
MANN TO FITCH
The Legionnaires and Hughie
Hall hriye parted9 company. Hall
and the promoters of. the team
couldn’t agree on contract terms!
last: week, arid .they ‘‘let him go”.
Hall has been commuting most
of the/season. with the Goderich
colored battery of Justice and
Miley, and on more than one oc
casion has arrived late-for Leg
ionnaire -rgames.; Anybody’ . can
have/ a guess/as,46 what’s back
of these late arrivals* ir , . t
, Hughie' missed his bat in they
first inning in Walkerton on Fri
day, but then went in to pitch
a whale, of a gapie with errors
costing him a;. ..IrO .decision on a
three hit job. .
The chips were dowp after the
game. Hall was offered $ con
tract with two options* One that
he spend five days a week in
Lucknow . at what is . regarded
locally as a fancy figure; the
other that he commute on his
I own, with fewer greenbacks be-
I ing fluttered in 4his offer. Hughie

by taxi for Goderich to catch his
travelling partners, /'
As far as The Legionnaires, are
concerned Hall won’t ;be back
except on theiri terms. He’s' had
plenty i_of opportunities to * make ;
good during the past, four Reasons

CITE DIFFERENT REASONS
FOR LOSING JOHNSON
Last week’s Meaford Express
reported that in . the Wednesday,
night game with Walkerton, Russ
Johnson had injured his leg slid
ing into the plate in the first
inning and had to leave the game.
Said The Express: “Meafprd may
have lost the services of Russ
Johnson for some time”.
But “Hank” (Port Elgin) Smith
had any reason why the Knights.
:• might lose Johnsdn.- ^Harik” eame-
up for a second time with a re
port from the Pdrt Colborne Ev
ening Standard dealing with
2-0 fastball. Victory won. .by’/'
itojyn.iname.d_.Sherks!ton.. The fir:
line*’of the article'read; “Again
' it was t'h^e. strong right arm of*
. veteran Russ Johnson that ac- '
Playing-ifouf gqrries m six days,/couhfod. for. the win”, with th?
added comment farther on; .“If
is. going to take a great team to .
beat Russ”.-- /' . \ ../■■■■
/.That was*, enough to cause
“Hank” to burst, out ,in. a two-
column spread in the ■ Time.-,
’rightfully demanding an invest!-,
gation of the Johnson -affair, by
the W.O.A.A. and O.A.S.A., with
which Sherkston.is claimed to bp
affiliated". “Hank” ‘calls for John
son’s suspension until the matter
is dealt with. He points out that
was the procedure in dealing with .
Wdlly Hetherington of South am p-
ton who was “belted‘out of the
league” last .year , for switching
to Port Elgin, after he had signed
up with his home town team.
■ Meaford and Jqhnsori shr-ug-it—
off as exhibition games, , and the
reaction here when the affair was
first rumored, was that “John
son would know better”. But the
incident is past the shrugging
off stage. The only recourse now
is an open and full scale invest-.'
igation into the affair.
