was the widow of the late Wm;

an. undertaker and furniture
dealer. Her husband died 27 years
ago and she had lived alone
since. Before her marriage, she
was Marion Rhoda Hiscox, a dau
ghter of the, late Mr. and Mrs. .
Robert Hiscox of Teeswater, her
father being a .shoemaker. She
and her husband were prominent-
"inUnitedChurchworkandMrs.-

was in charge of the Sacramental
Service. The remains rested' at
McLennan - MacKenzie Funeral

turn this season to. Class B soft
ball after four years in the Major
Fastball loop, that to say the
least had ’its up-and-downs for
fans, management and last but
not least—the‘•backers.
This season the Legion is con^
tent to get out of the “’big time’
and is sponsoring a juvenile
squad and a’ homebrew inter
mediate club/ The senior squad
is grouped , in a . teri-team loop
composed pi. Biyth, Hensall, Clin
ton, R.C.A.F. and Lucknow in the
“B” category, and with “C-’ and
“Dw teams including Port Albert,
Londesboro, Holmesville, Ben-
miller, Collborne Township and
Colborrie Juveniles.
. Looks like a pretty safe bet
that George Westlake will be in
Sepoy uniform, and that will be
a big boost for the local entry
any way you look at it. :

convener of the Intermediate
group. • •

The .local twosome oF Hugh
Cuming and: George Westlake,
opened the umpiring season in
the Major Fastball looji on Fri
day night when they handled the
/Kincardine at Gbderich game.
Out bet is that this combina
tion—Cuming behind the plate;
Westlake on the bases—-will be
a pretty; popular pair of arbitra
tors and will likely have a^busy
seasori ahead on the 5-team cir-'
cuit, playing a quadruplet sched

Off To Poor Start
Local fans who saw the God-
erch-Kincardine opener on Fri
day weren’t overly impressed
and came away with the idea
that both clulbs need strengthen
ing in the catching department
to handle the offerings of Cotton
and Bagnall. The former had 22
strikeouts and the latter 18 with
Bagnall’s Kincardine nine chalk
ing up a 3-1 decision, with every
last run scored on’ passed balls.
