The Wingham Advance-Times, 1952-08-27, Page 5IN THE SPORTLIGHT 'SALriliMERdint°E" Charlie Justice ended Wingham's hopes for a finalist and perhaps a victor in the WOAA' fastball series last Friday evening, Lucknow spelled the doom of our hopes, yet it isn't so hard to lose to those rivals arid sports- men from the Sepoy town, A better team won and they will have their hands full when they meet Meaford. It should be a great series, Meaford has already taken the first game from Walkerton. HOCKEY NEXT Now we have to look around for some sport to keep us occupied until Winter and the hockey season arrives. Speaking of hockey, Wingham may have a fair team this year by the looks of things. With Murray Stainton back in town, Bob Ritter coming from the Bridgeport team and several other possibilities, we have hopes for the season. Johnny Crewson claims he is hanging up his skates this winter but we'll believe it when we see it. Some of our Juveniles may be ready to make the jump to the Intermediate ranks, All things being equal and no management or financial troubles, Wingham will have a hockey team this year. MIDGETS IN FINALS In the meatime we have Midget and Bantam teams to keep an eye on and support. They deserve it, This Saturday night under the lights, at Wingham town park, the Kinsmen-sponsored Midget softball team will meet Sarnia Midgets in a return game. Last Saturday the locals lost their first game to' that team in Sarnia. Now that our fastball team is out of the running let's help our Midgets and Bantams win a championship.
