TAKE EARLY LEAD In the first contest played under fall-like playing condi- tions, Zurich jumped into a 1-0 second inning lead on a walk, wild pitch and Jim Bedard's double.

Ethel Ailey and LloydGreen- acre were declared victors in the extra round. They were tied in regular play with the combi- nations of Dot Munro and Harry Ailey and Helen Jermyn and Jim Mason with net scores of 35. Another stalemate occurred for low gross honors.

The score remained 4-2 until the bottom of number seven when the Kings exploded for seven big runs. Three Mohawk errors along with doubles by Dick Bedard and Shaddick and several walks were mainly res- ponsible for the big splurge.

Den O'Brien'S Zurich Lumber Kings have jumped into an early lead with two straight wins over Exeter Mohawks and a close one over Staffa Merchants. Last week we reported a juvenile entry from Goderich was added to make a four-team loop, This club did not materialize and the three returnees from last year are going to limp along until early in July when a pair of teams from the 'WOAA are expected to help out. Intermediates from Walkerton and Dur- ham will play an interlocking schedule with Zurich, Exeter and Staffa. If the first few games are any indication the long ball hitters are going to have a good year. In Exeter's home opener Monday, the Zurich sluggers pounded three balls over the newly erected fence. At Zurich last Thursday, only a very strong gale kept at least four long swats from turning into round-trippers, Some clubs in the past have put up bar- riers in the outfield, In the long run a fence possibly does not make too much difference. It tends to stop long drives on the ground between the outfielders from going all the way and sometimes allows a long high fly ball to go for a homer that could possibly be caught. We like to see ball parks with fences as it seems to add something to a game to see a ball go over the wall and have the runner scamper around unmolested. A fence was erected in Zurich some years ago and was taken down again after the visiting clubs hit far more four baggers than the home team. After Monday's local game this pattern seems to be repeating itself Where the visitors take advantage of the long ball. FISHING REMAINS QUIET Fishing in local streams remains fairly quiet with the cool weather being largely re- sponsible for Knell catches. Hank Green, the local volunteer game warden came up with four pike during the past week. The largest of this quartette caught close to Exeter, measured 27 inches. Wonders in fishing never cease and we don't mean some of the fish stories we hear occasionally. A few weeks ago an Atlantic Salmon was reported caught in the vicinity of North Bay. Now word comes from the St. Clair River area than an. ocean fish, a 50-pound skate, has somehow made its way up the seaway and set- tled in the river in the neighborhood of Al- gonac, Mich. A marine biologist in. Michigan has ad- vised that it is possible for fish to follow ocean vessels and they seem to be doing just that. Even our finny friends get confused in a busy world. Exeter bantams down Dashwood Exeter Legion Bantams open- ed WOAA play with two vic- tories over Dashwood, 13-0 and 16-4. In Dashwood Tuesday, the locals, coached by "Bunny" Ford and Jim Paisley, scored once in the first and kept in- creasing the margin. The Dashwood youngsters, several of whom are young enough tb play squirt and pee wee ball, never gave up, battling right to the finish. Brian McArthur and Larry Willert shared the pit ching duties for Exeter, each regis- tering five strike-outs. B. Hoff- man, Jim Guenther and Jim Hayter toiled on the Dashwood hill. Peter Lawson, Ulke Nagel and Willert led the winner's batting barrage with two hits apiece. On their home field Thurs- day, McArthur and Willert again split the hurling chores inpick- ing up the shutout. bring the hit total to seven. Dick Bedard tossed seven frames from the Zurich hill with Shaddick taking over in the eighth. Russell was tagged with the loss, going the dis- tance, striking out one and wal- king five. HOME RUN SPREE Home runs accounted for half of the Zurich total on Monday. Back to back drives over the right centre field fence in the third by Bill Shaddick and Doug O'Brien, the former's with two mates aboard, put the Lumber Kings into a commanding lead, O'Brien came back with ano- ther circuit clout in the seventh this time with the bags jammed. George Wright was on the Mohawk mound for the first five innings, allowing 12 runs, 9 hits, passing six and striking out two. Jim Russell finished up the final two frames, yielding four tallies, fanning five and issuing the same number of free tickets. Starting on the Zurich hill and going the first six was Bill Shad- dick. lie gave up but one hit in his stay while handing out six free passes and sending five hitters back to the bench by way of strike-outs. Don O'Brien threw the last frame giving up bingles to John Wade and Joe Wooden, the lat- ter's second of the game.

Nine swingers from each club teed off for the 18-hole event. Although on the losing end in team play, two CE golfers shot the low scores of the day. Wally Burton's 36 was best for nine and a 78 from Stan Thorne gave him the low for 18. Don Gravett and Lloyd Cush- man led the Exeter field with totals of 79 and 80 respectively. Each came up with a nine hole effort of 38. Dick Webber of the town con- tingent was close behind with an 81.
