Hensall Finks are now back in the thick of the fight for the Intermediate “B” Group 2 Soft- ball title following a decision by the Association that eliminated Centralia and Clinton RCAF teams from the competition. The Finks captured a one- game lead in their finals with Lucknow Legionaires on Monday night with a 7-5 victory. Doc C a m e r o n and Alf Desjardine clouted home runs to pace the Hensall hitters. George Westlake hit a homer for the losers. Mousseau went the route for Hensall ' with Masse catching, while Chisholm hurled for Luck­ now and Westlake caught. The WOAA decision to oust the two 'RCAF teams from competi­ tion came as a result of a protest by Lucknow who were defeated in a semi-final series by Centralia. Association officials upheld the Lucknow contention that the population at the RCAF stations was more than allowed for “B” softball. RCAF officials were not allowed to attend the meeting. Since RCAF Clinton had elim­ inated Hensall, the Association ordered the Lucknow team to play Finks for the group title.
