Two promising youngsters from Hensall have moved 'into Intercounty junior competition in different centres. Valuable members of the 1963-64 eliani- pion Hensall-Zurich Combines have traded hockey sticks for gloves and bats and are turning in good performances in baseball circles. Bruce Horton, captain of the hockey Com- bines was holding down the catching position for the Stratford Aca.dians quite capably until he was transferred north by his employer. A high scorer for the puck champs, Steve Kyle is performing for the London Diamonds and is showing his versatility by playing various posi- tions. While appearing mostly behind the plate, Steve has been called on to pitch several times besides handling chores at first base and in the outfield. He's also hitting the ball with authority for last year's Ontario champs, who have been beaten only once to date. centre and chased QPTIYilheine With the tying Jean Taylor kept the rally going with single, but Carman Marshall popped 4.p} xeter started off in fine fashion with three runs in the first When Jean. Taylor's triple was the decisive Plow, coming after a base on balls, an error and a single by ceonyn, Brussels moved ahead by a 4-3 count in the third with doubles by Jacklin, Beach, Stephenson and Galbraith and a single by Coultie. They added their fifth in the top of the last frame when Mary Gravett dropped a fly ball to send Wilson scampering home from third with two out. Helen Ebel went the distance for Exeter and gave up nine hits, while the Greys collected eight, Pooley and Taylor had two each, while single safeties came off the bats of Snell, Cronyn, Mattson and Iris Marshall. Brucefield piciced 'PP nine hits off Or their eight runs. They scored three inthefiret on a single and two bases on halls and -a costly two-run error by Greys third sacker Marshall. Sharon Burdge connected for a triple to, score Thelma Jones with another in the third and they added two more in each of the fourth and fifth frames. Graham aided her own cause with a pair of safeties, as did Kay Horton and Sharon Burdge. Thelma Jones, Bev Wright and Bev Robinson hed one hit apiece. Wright's, was a triple. large crowd ,of close to ?OP fans. Jean Taylor connected for a hole run and a double to account fel* the only two Exeter runs. Her booming round tripper came in the fourth inning with Ann Orellyn aboard and was one Of the longest hits •of the season. Darlene Snell Picled up the only other safety, a ieadeff single in the fifth, In four of the seven innings, the hefty Brucefield chucker sent the Exeter crew back to the bench in one-two-three order, Over 3,500 view resort drag races Supervisors start to work Exeter Kinsmen Playground opened this week and registration had already hit 70 by Tuesday.

Living up to their reputation as a late inning threat, the Greys had the fans biting their nails as they fought back from a two-run deficit in the final frame. Darlene Snell led off with a single and moved to second when Ann Cronyn's fly was dropped in the outfield. However, Dolly Mattson drove one to short and a fine catch caught Snell off base for a double play that appeared to nip the threat right in the bud. However, Pooley lashed a Steffler pitch into deep right Close decisions in lawn jitneys Competition remains keen at the Exeter lawn bowling greens these days with several rinks competing in each jitney. On Tuesday, Howard Truem- ner and Wilf Shapton teamed up for top honors with two wins and a plus of 17. Art Cann and Mr. Tucker were close behind with two wins and a plus of 13, Third place finishers were Ray Mills and Vern Smith their plus of nine and two victories, Saturday's winners were Ted Pooley and Lila Smith with a big plus of 20 to go with their two wins. Wilf Goodwin and Bob Middleton had a plus of 16 and Ross Taylor and Clarence Down had a plus of 11. Both of the latter squads had a pair of victories. We Told You So— Two weeks ago we reported that the De- troit Tigers were getting ready to make their move. Since that time the Bengals have moved from eighth 'to fifth position and are only one game s'hy of playing 50-50 ball. Another visit to "Kaline's Corner" at the meat counter down the street has renewed our hopes that the Tigers will finally come through. The butcher boys have predicted "the Tigers will be in third spot by August 1 •and in the league lead •a month later." A certain clerk of the division court across the street still contends the Yanks are the club to beat. Lucky for Yogi's boys they don't play the Tigers more often or they would be lower than their present precarious position behind the front running Orioles and White Sox. It's nice to hear that two major league managers who were sidelined by serious illness are both on the road back to recovery. Birdie Tebbetts, a real 'holler guy in his catching days with (you guessed it) the Detroit Tigers and until ,an April 1 heart attack, field boss of •the Cleveland Indians hopes to rejoin the Tribe in a limited capacity in the near future. The other manager, also a former Tiger, Fred Hutchinson, boss man of the Cincinatti Reds of the senior circuit is about ready to re- turn to active duty. Incidentally, Tebbetts weighing 238 pounds two years ago is down to 170 and has been walk- ing 'two miles a day trying to regain his health. Manore's Riverside Marine Drag racing made an aus- picious debut in the area Sun- day, when over 3,500 fans flock- ed fo the former Grand Bend airport to watch the high-speed cars in action. And they had plenty of action to watch, including the breaking of a world record. Billy Kydd Jr., London, whip- ped his Class A" altered road- ster through the quarter-mile in record shattering time. He turned in an elapsed time of 9.980 seconds, hitting the traps at 148.86 miles an hour, to clip two-thousands of a second off the existing record in his class. His performance was but one of many eye-openers which greeted the huge and enthusi- astic crowd at the opening of Western Ontario's newest drag strip. According to ardent followers of the sport, one of the other eye-openers was the strip it- The strip, laid out just last week on one of the old runways, is considered to be rifest" ac- cording to many of the drivers who brought their souped-up craft to the opening trials. The paved pits, closeness to Lake Huron, the rapid pace in getting the cars away — all were praised by the drivers. Last, and not least, was the $1,500 prize money for which they competed. There will be drags every Sunday, weather permitting, say Happy faces were everywhere Tuesday evening as 22 Exeter golferites thundered down the paceway to come in with some very interesting and competi- tive scores, Pars on holes were plentiful, with Ethel Ailey winning the low gross of 41 and Audrey Mac- Donald, still walking on air, coming up with a low net of 28, parring two holes. How's that for just having five games under her belt! — congratulations Audrey. Novelty ashtrays were won by Grace Skinner low on one, Ai- lene Rennie high on seven, Eva Burns high on five, Edna Deitz low on 4. The honor of this week's most honest golfer goes out to Audrey Burrows beating out yours truly by one. A special welcome to our new member Ailene Rennie from Hensall who has decided that you can't beat fun for a good time and you can find that with the 'Gal golfers' every Tues- day evening. Anyone interested in joining the club is most welcome to do so by calling Betty Coates 235- 2626 after 6 pm. Vets lose pair in rec contests Exeter Legion took two de- feats this week in the local rec softball loop, losing to Hensall and the RCAF Airmen. Hensall outlasted them by a highscoring 18-17 count last Tuesday in a free-hitting dis- play by both clubs, as Hensell came up with four tallies in the final frame to take the win. Keith Lovell recorded the win on the hill and also slammed out a pair of homers to help his own cause. He also had a single. G. Walters had a pair of safeties as did Bill MacKinnon. Bill McKeller had two homers for the Vets inthe second frame when they plated 11 of their runs. On Monday, the Airmen rolled to an easy 9-2 win. Sever had four straight hits off Don Couture, while Ellil had three. Don Wells smashed out a pair for the Legion nine, while Cou- ture, Charlie Atthill, Jim Hen- nessey and Jim Pinder had one each. SOME ODDS 'N ENDS Eddie Bush, former star defenseman with the Detroit Red Wings has been named coach of the Memphis Wings, a brand new farm club of the NHL Wings in the Central Professional Hockey league. Alter completing his NHL career, Bush coached intermediate and junior clubs in his home town of Collingwood until 1954 when he moved up to the Junior OHA. Now 45, Eddie spent six years guiding the fortunes of the Guelph juniors and the last four seasons with the Hamilton Red Wings. No successor has been named to the coach- ing position in the Mountain City. Going to Toronto this summer? It woud be worth while for 'any sports fan to take an ;hour or tWo and visit the Sports Hall of Fame and the Hockey Hall of Fame, located on the CNE grounds. Curator of the exhibits, Bobby Hewitson has announced that the dual building is open to the public, free of charge, throughout the sum- mer. Visitors will be welcome every day of the week from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. each afternoon, Sat- urdays, Sundays and holidays included. During the 15-day exhibition period, Au- gust 21 to September 7 this year, the building will be open from 9:00 a,m, to 10:30 p.m. FAST DOCK-SIDE SERVICE South side of pier at mouth of river beside customs building . OIL, WATER., ICE, REPAIRS Johnson Motets Trailers of every size Complete line of boats Score 42 runs in two contests Exeter's powerful pee wee entry in the WOAA racked up another pair of decisive wins this week when they recorded no less than 42 runs, while al- lowing only eight. They started things off with a 23-6 verdict over Lucan and then trimmed Hensell by a 19-2 count. In the Lucan game, they scor- ed many of their runs with walks and errors. Barry Baynham, Jim Guen- ther and Rick Weber each tour- ed the sacks no less than four times, while Jack Darling ac- counted for three tallies. Ron Farrell pitched the win, as he did against Hensall, while Weber was behind the plate. Weber scored four times in the Hensall affair, while Ron Janke went three times. In both games, all players scored at least one run. Moir and Cameron accounted for the Hensall runs, while Narle, Park, Maklem, Mor- rison and Haskett were the Lu- can scorers. During 1962 employment in Canada's textile mills increa- sed by 4,000 to a total of 77,000; the record high of employment for the industry was 102,000 in 1951. The Exeter Mohawks receiv- ed an encouraging report in Walkerton Sunday when they whipped the loop leaders by a decisive 13-4 win. Not only were the locals hit- ting the ball with autho rity against the league's top hurlers, but their own star hurler has appeared to regain his form. Jim Russell, who has done little pitching in the past season or two, went the distance and allowed only five hits in the nine innings. The big right hander, troubled in the past with shoulder stiff- ness, allowed Walkerton only five hits, while his mates backed him up with some stellar field- ing as they allowed only one error. Russell had five stike-outs and was only in frequent trouble. Manager Joe Wooden supplied the main power at the plate as he drove in seven runs with a pair of booming triples and a single. His single accounted for a two-run lead in the first, three more in the second and two in the seventh. Gord Strang also had three hits, one a double while Ron Bogart, George Wright and Rick Boyle had a safety each. The tribe also pulled off a pair of double plays as they completely outclassed the nor- thern crew. If you haven't it in your head you must have it in your heels. Proverb, Riverport, N.S.

DID YOU KNOW—That in a single game on Au- gust 25, 1922, the Philadelphia Phillies and the Chicago Cubs scored 49 runs. The Phillies won 26.23... Have you heard the story of the rookie hurler Who was knocked out of the box in One inning of his first start and given his release? "But won't you give me a recommendation?" he asked the manager. The skipper said he'd be happy to and wrote: "To whom it may concern: The bearer of this note pitched one game for me and I'm satisfied," . The late Bobo Newsom, one of the most travelled pitchers in the major baseball leagues and also unpredictable would often appear on the pitching mound in both games of a doubleheader, One Sunday afternoon when toiling with the lowly St. Louis Browns, Bobo walked the first four men to face him in the first game and probably after an early exit, came back to start the nightcap and proceeded to strike out the first four batters to appear at the plate. AND FINALLY — Some interesting fads were gleaned from the new Constitution and rule book of the Ontario Baseball Association, The maxim= population for Intermediate B, C and D have been changed drastically, In D baseball the limit ;has been raised from 999 to 1,999 and any town with a popula- tion of less than 4,000 will be able to compete in •the C Category. This 'change Means that the Exeter 11/Io-, hawks ,campaigning previously ash a 13 club will riOW move along the play-off .trail in 'a loWer date- gory.
