Which one shall I pay?” Boss: “It doesn’t make any differ­ ence—I’ll lose my shirt anyway.” Joe Tiffin pitched the Hurons to -a win in the first Bruce League game at Lucknow on Monday afternoon. The bTg sorrel-top pitched a great, game for so early in the season. He fanned fourteen and he was nicked for-only 6 hits. The Indians had the war paint on and swung the old club for 19 hits. Carmichael and Gray had big days, Mike getting four and Tap­ per 3. The game was quite typical of an early season exhibition and was a long drawn-out affair but the Wing­ ham fans (quite a few) had plenty of chances to cheer their stalwarts as they crossed the plate sixteen times while Lucknow made the round trip but five times. The weather was very good, a bit cool at first then the wind died down and it was fine baseball weather. Joe went the route and was scored on in only two innings. The Indians scored, three in their first half of the 'first and it looked all O.K., but Luck­ now came back in their half and tied it up. Grfeer walked and Clark sing­ led. Doran tried to pitch Clark out at second and Greer, who was on third beat it home. Fisher walked and stole second. Irwin singled and Clark and Fisher crossed the plate. Joe struck the next three out. The Sepoys gathered their only oth­ er runs in the fourth. McCartney and C. Finlayson singled in succession. Carruthers filed out to Cruickshanks. Ritchie was hit by a pitched ball and the bases were loaded. Greer singled and,two runs were chalked up. Then Joe fanned Clark and Fisher. It is too long a story to tell how the Indians gathered in 16 runs. The only player who did not register a hit was Smith and only three players did not get two or more hits. If the boys can continue to swing the club as they did Monday they will get somewhere, if some of the absentee pitchers of the holiday afternoon get down to business.

Blyth, last year’s Champions of the Maitland League, who will this year play in the Central, won a 7-innings exhibition game on the holiday morn­ ing from our Central League entry. The game was staged at the Town Park and a fair number of fans were cm deck. ■ Bill Groves pitched the first three innings, The red-head did. not do badly and will improve for sure with a little more practice. Bill has gain­ ed. weight this .winter and will be zipping the ball soon, Jim Angus did mound duty for 3 innings also. One hit was all they could get off him. Allen Small tossed them over the last inning. This kid should make a ball player. He struck out two, the other enemy going out Haselgrove to Scott, This team needs more pep and they will no doubt gather it as time goes on. They need practice and this week should make a big difference to their condition. They are an enthusiastic lot and will be giving their best all the way. Blyth have two fair twirlers. Tay­ lor has a nice breaking ball and Do­ herty has lots of speed, Right now Blyth look as good as any of the last year Central League teams, but our gang should be better with Groves and Small benefitting by last year’s experience. One thing is -sure, this gang will not give up. They will be in there.
