I •/ Lucknow Legionnaires have
supplanted Port Elgin Pontiacs as
the hard-luck team of the league.
They’ve dropped three straight,
since Felix Mann took over , the
mound ■ duties,, but no.' fault of
his hurling for he’s beep doing
a neat chore. .
The odd defensive slip-up, and*
some mental lapses with men on
the runways, have cost the Leg
ionnaires some wins.1 -
; 1^ Was one of those lapses on
Monday night, that enabled Han-,
over to cut off what might have
been the winning run in. the 8th.
After a scoreless nine innings,
the game Went on until the 11th,
when Hanover scored three runs
to take the game 3-0.
Cotton has been hot in the
two-game set with the Legion
naires. He fanned 15 and allowed
4 hits. Mash wasn’t far (behind.
He whiffed 12 and gave up four
hits also, but his control wasn’t
quite so good and was a factor
in starting off Hanover’s .11th in
ning rally.
, It was the first time in three
games that the Legionnaires have
been . back to near normal
strength, and they turned in a
good brand of ball that was a
crowd-pleaser apart from the oUt-
coi^e, • ■ ■ ■ ■-
The Walkerton Hartley’s power
hitters went down swinging
quently last Wednesday night, as:
Felix Mann took over the pitch
ing duties for the Lucknow Leg
ionnaires.
Lucknow was on the short end
of a 2rl score but Mann deserved
a win by his 6-hitr 14 strikeouts
effort.. _ -■
? Only Walkertonian: he .didn’t
fan was*, Harold Dentinger who
got three” tor four arid drove in
both •runs?;
: Lucknow torik, a one--run lead
in the : second when Westlake doubled and Haidenby singled
him home. It was the 7th before
Walkerton tied it on a double
and a single, and Lennie Dent-
inger set up the winning run in
the 9th when he beat out a bunt;
advanced on a misjudged high fly
ball to right by Zuk and scored
on Brother Harold’s single, and
his third, hit of the night.
Lucknow had the tying or win
ning ^Uns on base in the bottom
of the 9th, but couldn’t punch
them in. They had missed .a
chance in the 7th to score, When;
with. Westlake on third, a throw
was made from left field to first
base to double Patterson off after
■the.-catch.'-. .....
Zuk had only_six strikeouts,
but also gave up only five hits,
with a cpuple of double Inlays
pulling him put of some t>ugh
spots, One of them was a result
i of some more corny, inexperieric-
1 ed umping.
-. In the 8th Beadle was safe on
an error at short. Attridge sacri
ficed, him 'to second, and he was
:out—gping—into—third—ony-Morley-
Chin’s fielder’s choice. Both the
ball and base upms ran to third
to call this and. in the confusion,
Morley went for second. The base
ump didn’t see the play, he admit
ted after, but Knox, who; made
the play on Morley, “called him.
out” arid the team trotted off the
field -'With the base unip’s bless
ing.
i " Knox had previously got away
with giving the ump a two-hand
ed push-that set him back on his
heels.
The Legionnaires had only Geo.
Westlake of the' Wingham boys
cn hand for this one, and had
trouble scraping Up nine men.
The same situation, prevailed for
the Hanover game on Friday; but
for both games there were more,
local boys in uniform than any
time during the past couple . of
seasons. ■. .
Jitney Friday Night
. There were twenty bowlers at
the greens. on Monday night for
the weekly jitney. Two-game
winners were Mrs. Kenneth Cam
eron, Mrs. N. H. Hedley and Roy
Finlayson?
. The usual Thursday night jit
ney will be held this week on
Friday night.

There is local interest in
article in a .Crosswell, Michigan,
T»aper,' concerning R. G. (Doc)
Martin, reported in the American
Dental Journal to be the “oldrist
practising dentist in the world’”.
___He_Js_9J._andu_a_brother—of—the
late Joseph Martin who farmed
at Lochalsh for a time. Doc Mar
rin’s wife was a cousin of the late
Mrs. G. S. Robertson of Lucknow.
Here’s the article .in part:
Earl every morning, , G.
(Doc) Martin, 91, climbs up
23 steps to his office above
kins Department Store in Cros-
' well. '
. That office hasn’t-changed one
mite since “Doc” came out of the
Philadelphia Dental School and
set up shop 63'years ago? .
He still has the drill you op-
‘ erate by foot, the chair with
hand cranks on it and the same
old cUspidor.
People—mostly old folks—come
from all over the Thumb area,
and Detroit, Grand Rapids, even
Chicago,- because there . isn’t—a-
finer hand known for making
7store~teeth and-fitting ~thern' ~ —
Doc—not one to hold his heart
and; puff—climbs up and down
those 23 steps eight to a dozen
times a .day. To get. to work, go
down for the mail, go shopping,
get a cup of coffee, go. home for
lunch—shucks, he says,- maybe he
goes up arid down them 20 times
, a 'd?y. -
Well, 10 times a day is 460
steps—whidh for a guy over 90
is like aliming Mr. Everest every
day, • .
■ And he has to stay on thes job
because a dozen or more people
6 come to him every week-swear
ing that only Doe can make teeth
’ that don’t hurt when you eat
corn off the. cob, or come un
hinged when you. try to chew
gum or tobacco. , 1 - -
