The locals won the division with two straight wins over St. Marys, although they had to come from behind to post the final victory in Exeter, Tues- day. They had an easy time in the best-of-three opener in St. Marys, Friday, returning home with a convincing 18-7 triumph on a fine pitching effort by Don Farrell and some stellar relief hurling by Barry Baynham. The teams were tied at three each at the end of the third, but Exeter jumped into a 6-4 margin • by the end of the fourth and never looked back, adding 10 more in the final two frames.

T. C. Haliburton A small but enthusiastic group of sports- men partake of their favorite 'summer sport at Grand Bend each weekend. With headquarters on the south side of the river at the popular Lake Huron summer resort, the Grand Bend Yacht Club is growing in numbers each year. Edith GaHeinle, secretary-treasurer of the group, reports a membership of about 45, an in- crease of eight from a year ago. Mrs. Golienne of London is the first woman to appear on the executive since its incorporation in 1959, She is able to take care of the paper work at the club house, thus allowing the male members more time for actual sailing. The club's annual regatta will be held on the waters of Lake Huron over the upcoming Civic Holiday weekend. Four races will be staged during the three days, August 1, 2 and 3. The first event will hit the waters at 4 p.m, Saturday, followed by a pair on Sunday at 10:30 and 4:00 and the final Monday morning at 10:30. This highlight of the Bend club's sailing season is an open affair and anyone from the area is welcome to participate either as a com- petitor or spectator. Any type of sailing craft will be accepted and boats will be handicapped as to types. The only request is that when registering, all craft owners furnish specifications of boat including sail area, water line, freeboard, length overall and draft for handicapping purposes. Registration times are 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday and 9:30 to 10:00 a,m. Sunday with a fee of $1.00 for each boat entering. A meeting of skippers will be held Saturday, one hour be- fore the first race gets underway. This year's race chairman, John Skinner, St. Marys, will be available all day Saturday if any member requires assistance in measuring his boat. If any questions arise earlier in the week pertaining to the event, Dr. Jerry Copestakes or John Young can be contacted at the Bend. Box lunches will be provided Sunday noon for the nominal sum of $1.00 with fried breast of chicken as the main attraction. Yum—Yum! An invitation has been extended to the Fanshawe Yacht Club and the Conestogo Sailing club to participate in this regatta along with the regular "Benders" and any newcomers who wish to enter. A variety of trophy presentations will be made shortly after the lunch hour on Monday. A special award will go to the best in the sail- fish class. The 45 members of this popular boating club hail from various points in Ontario. Nine come from London, four from St. Marys and the balance from Stratford, Kitchener and Paris in addition to the half dozen from the immediate area. Ivan Hunter-Duvar and Dr. Harvey Cowen make up the Exeter contingent. Don Williamson and Andy Anderson represent RCAF Centralia while John Young and Roy Robinson hail from Grand Bend. Ken Giles, London, is 1964 Commodore, getting executive assistance from Racing Chair- man John Skinner and Rear Commodore Eric Taylor, both of St. Marys. A junior club is again in operation and is guided by senior members Jerry Copestakes, Clayt Gallienne and Don Williamson. The young- sters will have their big race Monday afternoon at 3:00 weather permitting. We hope the weatherman will be in a good mood for the weekend providing light breezes for good sailing. KING MIDAS TOPS AGAIN Fred Darling's prize jumper, King Midas, took down his second straight 1964 title by be- ing declared grand champion open jumper at a keenly contested Brampton Horse Show over the weekend. Fred tells us his prize seven-year-old jump. er will next move to a show in Sutton in August and then on to the CNE in Toronto. After the exhibition will come smaller shows around the Toronto area followed by further shows south of the border. midget players Exeter's midgets picked up only two hits off the offerings of Clinton's Clare Magee as they dropped the first game of the group playoffs by an 8-4 count in Clinton, Saturday. Magee also struck out 10 local batters and had them hand- cuffed all the way. Brad Dutot supplied the power for last year's OBA s e m finalists with three hits. Second game of the series will be played at the Exeter park this Friday. the diamond donated $10 each towards the cost. Most teams said they could not afford it and the issue broke wide open and drew criticism from several quarters. However, on Thursday and Friday, between 25 and 30 men congregated at the park and replaced the screen. Power equipment was donated by local farm dealers and money was provided from several citizens. When Gord Baynham arrived at the RAP meeting, Monday, Mayor Simmons asuggested he approve a motion authorizing the work to be done. "Why do you need a motion'?" qaeried the ardent sportsman. Simmons noted the screen had been built and there should be some record of it on the books. Baynham suggested RAP should just thank the interested parties for having built it. Simmons agreed that this should be done, but still argued that a motion should be on the books. Baynham finally agreed with his suggestion and presented a motion "that the proposed screen be built at the softball diamond by a group of interested citizens". It carried unanimously.
