HURONS LOSE EXHIBITION GAME DONNYBROOK Itisti- home Pres., Cwoosq PATES SffiCttM) The St. Augustine Women’s tute met on Wednesday at the of Mrs. Gus Kinahan with the Mrs. Moss in charge. Roll call “Hints on gardening” brought many useful suggestions, community singing was enjoyed. Current events were given by Donna Armstrong.

Miss Margaret Jefferson read, the Scripture lesson, and Mrs- Albert Campbell led in pray­ er. Solos were contributed by Mrs. Rivett, of Crewe, Miss Winnie CtiffipM bell, of Westfield, Mrs. Platzek Wingham- baseball fans (the few who turned out) saw a new club at the local park last Saturday and were fav­ orably impressed by the visitors from Milton. The Brick Town showed more hitting power and (on the day at least) better fielding than the Hur­ ons, who they defeated 8-5. The short right-field barrier proved an'inviting mark to the many left-hand hitters on the visiting line-up, seven of their thir­ teen hits sailing over for extra bases, including two home-runs. The Tribe used three pitchers, Bill Groves, Jerry Campbell and Bob Bridgeford, but on­ ly the latter showed much in ithe way of control at least. Brush and A: Clements showed real ability for the Haltpn County .club, the former having four hits, all doub­ les, and the latter, three, including a first-inning home-run, Both also field-; ed well, especially Clements who look­ ed by far the best second-baseman to show here for some time. Patterson, on the mound for the visitors, was fairly effective, a change of pace being his chief asset, The Braves garnered ten hits off him but they were fairly well spattered. Afield the Hurons looked awfully dead, Smith especially* acting as if he had a bad case of insomnia, or laisse- faire, or something. Only Clare Neir- garth on third showed anything at all, the slender third-baseman turning in a brilliant game except for one inn­ ing in which he had a pair of errors, one on a quite hard chance. The boys should remember that exhibition game or league final, the people who pay their two-bits expect the hired hands to at least keep awake. Otherwise there's going to be a lot of vacant seats in ithe stadium, if Milton ...... Wingham 200 000 010 000 nay.
