Sunday's contest was a close struggle throughout as Exeter A pregnant woman should wear a seat belt, or better yet a shoulder harness, says the American Medical Association. Studies show that most belt in- juries are slight, and the risk to the fetus is less with a seat belt. Older drivers who compensate for their changing physical abilities are less likely to have auto accidents than younger people, A chirp-chirp noise up front is probably a dry or worn fan belt, Parking lights are never enough for driving, If you need lights at all, use the regular beams, say experts. More than half of all auto ac- cidents are caused by "habitual offenders", Drunken drivers make up the largest single group.

Exeter opened the scoring in the second frame when Doug Fairbairn and Joe Darling cir- cled the route without the aid of a hit. Port Elgin knotted the count in their half only to. have Paul McKnight make it 3-2 in the third after leading off with a double and coming in on Darling's single. Port Elgin scored three times in the fourth, but Exeter came back with three more in each of the sixth and seventh innings to cap the margin. The key blow in the sixth was provided by Dave Parsons who slammed a triple with the bases loaded, A double by Perry Stover and singles by Rick Regier and Rob Dickey provided the power for the three runs in the seventh. Port Elgin scored three times in the seventh, but Paul McKnight came on in relief of Perry Stover to leave Port Elgin one run behind. After his narrow escape in the eighth inning, McKnight put the home crew down in order in the ninth, aided by a spectacular catch by Darling that resulted in a double-play. Besides his clutch relief pit- ching, McKnight paced the hit- ting attack with a pair of doubles, while Dickey and Darling had a pair of singles. Dave Parsons lashed out a triple and singles came off the bats of Stover, Fairbairn and Regier. Stover recorded four strike- outs in his six and one-third in- nings, while McKnight picked up one, Nine Exeter batters were sent down via the strike-out route, Centennials post narrow victory The Exeter Centennials soccer club posted another victory this week when they edged Taxandria B by a 2-1 margin, Sunday. Mike Ball scored both tallies for the winners, There will he no game for the club this week and their next match will be at home against Ailsa Craig on August 26 at 6:30 p.m. In other soccer action, the Exeter Mosquitoes dropped a 3-0 contest to Clinton. The locals played the game three men short. The Exeter Knights recorded a convincing 5-0 win over the Exeter "A" club. Richard Helm paced the attack with three goals while Mike Taylor and M. Brunzlow scored one each, Doug Lovell picked up singles each. Sunday's game was a complete disaster for Exeter 'as the Listowel squad scored six times in the first inning and added seven more in the sixth and four in the eighth to record the lop- sided 17-3 margin. Exeter hurlers gave up 13 walks, hit two batsmen and their mates committed two errors, while Listowel only connected for four hits in the contest. Actually Exeter outhit the winners with a total of seven. The deciding game in Listowel Monday was a nip and tuck affair from the outset and Exeter scored twice in the final frame and had a man on third when the final out was made with Listowel leading 5-4. Paul Shapton paced the locals with three hits, while Ken Pinder, Jim Gregus and Paul Brooks had a pair each. Paul Brooks took the loss, although he gave up only five hits, However, seven walks and a couple of costly errors by his mates proved to be the dif- ference. By MRS. ROBERT LAING It took an extra inning to break the tie in a rousing ball game at the park on Tuesday night bet- ween Hibbert South and Blan- shard Bantam Boys. Maurice Ruston went all the way on the mound for Hibbert with Ron Elliott behind the plate. Helped by two home runs by Brad Marsden, and one by Dwight Kinsman, Hibbert South came out on the top of a 9-8 score. Monday a large number of Cromarty fans travelled to Kirkton to see the return Bantam game. In spite of Brad Marsden's grand slam homer, Hibbert South came out in the short end of an 11- 10 score. The third game of the series will be played in Kirkton. In the early game Tuesday, Munro Senior girls earned a well- deserved win over Cromarty. Cromarty men's ball team won both of their slow-pitch games on the weekend. On Saturday evening they won over Staffa 16- 13, and on Sunday night it was 21- 12 over Roys.

Steer This Way BY LARRY SNIDER After dropping a 6-2 verdict to Exeter, Wednesday, the Listowel bantams bounced back and scored two wins in a row to oust the locals from further corn- petion. Listowel trounced the local nine by a 17-3 count, Sunday and wrapped up the best-of-three set in the deciding contest by a narrow 5-4 margin. In the opening game in Exeter, the locals scored three times in their first appearance at the plate to take a lead they never relinquished. A leadoff single by Doug Osgood, followed by a free pass to Steve Baynham, an error on Ken Pinder and a two-base clout by Jim Gregus started Exeter off on the way to their win. They scored twice in the third and added the final tally in the fourth. Hurler *Paul Brooks allowed Listowel single tallies in the third and fifth and recorded 11 strike- outs in the seven inning contest. Jim Gregus supplied most of the power in the tilt with a triple and double, while Osgood and Local bantams out after bad Sunday Times-Advacate, August 16, 1973 Page 7 Centralia area bride honored at shower
