There is at the moment three
teams entered into, a grouping
to 'form a girls softball league.
These teams include, Lucan,
Centralia and Dashwpod.
This league needs at least an
other entry to round out a fodr-
team grouping so that a sched
ule can be drawn up and gotten
underway.
Cliff Salmon, Dashwood, is the
convenor of the league and
would like all interested parties
to get in contact with him in
Dashwood.
Mr, Salmon would like to have
Exeter enter, a team that cpuld
be made up of juniors and in
termediates. The rivalry that
there was when Exeter did have
a soft ball team ‘could be re
stored' if Exeter would enter
again.
Anyone who is willing to spon
sor a girls’ softball team-in Ex
eter, kindly get in touch with
Mr. Salmon at Dashwood by
phoning 154 or contact Exeter
Times-Advocate, Sports' Depart
ment.
