colm, jury foreman, presented the ver
dict,, reached after 45 minutes delib

to criminal negligence.” The jury re
commended erection of “slow” sighs
at Kinlough.
35 HEAD OF RYE
FROM ONE SEED

to a height of five feet. Thirty-five
shoots from one seed appears to be
a near-record at least and for all to
head perfectly is most unusual, You

DONKEY BASEBALL *
WENT OVER BIG
Large Crowd Enjoyed This Novel
Sport
The Donkey Baseball game that
was played at the Town Park Mon
day evening was billed as a hilarious
sport and that was just what it was,
The large crowd that was present
thoroughly enjoyed the game and
some of the animals (not the players)
lived up to the donkey reputation of
being very rebellious. The donkeys
gave some of the players a rough ride
but those taking part entered into the
spirit of the game and gave the crowd
a real good evening’s entertainment.
Believe it or not, the score was a tie
4-all.
The Chamber of Commerce had on
their line-up: Alf, Lockridge, W. Led-
iet, W, H, French, C. Fry, Dr. How-
son, R. Rae, Les. Clarke, J. Herd, J.
H. Crawford, Jack McKibbon and H.
Garlick. The All Stars were: E. Wild,
W. Currie, S. Cowan, E. Gray, T.
Currie, G, Fowler, R. Walker, Jim
Currie. The managers were, C. of C.,
Herbert Campbell; All Stars, Mayor
John Hanna. Runs were made by All
Stars, Gray, Hetherington 2, Irwin;
C. of C., Dr. Howson, C. Fry, R. Rae,
J. Herd.
The batter after hitting the ball Imd
to mount a donkey and head for first
base, That is where the, fun com
menced, as in most cases the player
dismounted immediately and not by
choice. It surely was something dif
ferent and a lot of fun. If you think
it is not, try stealing second on a
donkey’s back or fielding a ball astride
one of these packages of dynamite.
This evening fun was under the
auspices of the Bruce League Club.
Following the game at the park, the
Central League Club staged a suc
cessful Bingo and Dance at Al’s dance
floor.
