Taylor supplied the big hit of the game in the fifth inning as he drilled a line drive down the right field line and was able to circle the bases before the ball was retrieved.

In Sunday's 8-6 loss to Arva, the Tigers were short-handed when game time arrived and were forced to throw manager Glenn Webb and a limping Pete Ravelle into the line-up. They started off as they really meant business by scoring five runs in the first inning. Bob Hoffman started the rally with a walk, John Hayter added a double, Pete Wuerth singled, Bill Schade was safe on an error and big Jim Guenther cleaned the bases with a long home run drive, The other Tiger tally came in the fifth when Bill Schade singled and rode home as Pete Ravelle rapped out a long single.

In the second win over Seaforth he fanned 16 bat- ters while in the games against Goderich and Listowel he whiffed 10 and 11 opposition batters, respectively. In the first win over Seaforth, Jim Gregus led the Exeter batting attack with four con- secutive singles. Hitting honours were well spread in the most recent win over Goderich .

Last week we mentioned that the Dashwood Friedsburg Days committee and Glenn Webb in particular were looking for strong men to compete in the annual tug-of-war contest there. We suggested the Lions after their performance in the Centennial log sawing contest should show their strength further by trying tug-of-war. Robbie Robichaud who combined with Gerry Prout in putting all other log sawers to shame is now rounding up all the strong men in the area to compete in Dashwood on Saturday. August 4. While Prout and Robichaud left little to be desired in their sawing abilities we are sure they will be in for a real battle when they "lock ropes" with the champions from Shipka and other strong men from the area. If any group in the district would like to display their strength a call to Glenn Webb at Dashwood will put you in the tug-of-war, event. Each team will consist of ten men. Hockey school back Young hockey enthusiasts in the area will welcome the news of the return this year of the Huron summer hockey school at Huron Park. Three of the instructional staff of the past couple of years will be back. They include Ron Mason, who is well known as a junior player in the Seaforth area: Bill Mahoney, coach at McMaster University in Hamilton and Brian Gilmour, now a Canadian scout for the New England Whalers of the WHA. A special feature at Huron is the instant replay camera. Each boy is filmed and receives immediate feedback through classroom analysis of his skills. For many boys, the experience of seeing themselves play is of great teaching value. Slides, films and chalk talks are also part of our hockey instruction. Enrollment is limited. This gives every boy time to receive individual instruction. Each boy will receive a written evaluation which will allow his minor coach to follow up the boys summer program. Registration takes place on Sunday between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. During this time parents are invited to tour camp facilities. For those boys leaving the school, the program ends at noon on Saturday following the All-Star game. Parents are encouraged to arrive early and watch their son in action, The basic fundamentals of hockey are taught during the weekly periods. The curriculum is such that it requires one week's attendance to receive instruction in all fundamen- tals. Boys attending for a two week period have the oppor- tunity to master the fundamentals and to learn many of the more difficult aspects of hockey. Each boy has a minimum of 3 hours ice time per day. Additional time is devoted each day to lectures, films and video sessions. Instructions covers all phases of hockey in- cluding shooting and passing, puck control, checking, skating, goal tending and team play. Diamond dandies New York columnist Milt Richman stunned the baseball world and all other adjacent planets with seams on them, by predicting last spring that the Expos would finish third in the National League's East Division this year. When Montreal skipper Gene Mauch was told about it he refused to believe it until it was explained that Richman had based his prediction on Gene's managerial genius. "Come to think of it, he may have something there," mused Mauch. 4 4 4 After the 1972 World Series, Cincinnati Reds second baseman Joe Morgan attended winter classes at California State. "I was the only professional athlete in class," he chuckled. "so they all wound up studying me." 4 V. 4 Babe Herman, one-time legend at Ebbets Field batted .393 in 1930. Did it win him the batting championship? Nope. That was the season Bill Terry had .401. The irrepressible Herman denied as a vicious canard the rumor that he had once been hit on the head by a fly ball. "That's a joke but it ain't funny," snapped the Babe. "I promise you this: If I ever get hit on the head by a fly ball I'll walk off the field and never come back," "How about getting hit on the shoulder?" he was asked. "On the shoulder don't count," loftily said Brooklyn's Babe.
