TT Sports Editor A FITTING FINISH FOR A FINE GROUP The little town of Hensall became a bedlam of excitment Monday night after Hensall lows" Midgets wrapped up their Ontario Baseball Association championship in two straight games. An estimated crowd of close to 600 roared their approval' through a drizzling rain as the Hen- n"l lads brought an OBA title to their town for the first time in 20 years. If you recall, the last OBA championship to swing Hensall's way was back in 1940, At this time, an intermediate "B" club looked after the honours. Members of the club were Carter Kerslake, Everette "Doe" Kerslake, Jack Tudor, Morris Tudor, Rev, "Bill" Weir, "Duff" Brown, Gib Stade, Max Hudson, Len O'Brien, Ed Gascho, "Buck" Heideman and Ab Bell, Manager of the team was Stan Tudor. We trust we haven't left out any members of the 1940 club. If we have, -we would appreciate hearing from you. Getting back to the newly crowned midget titleholders, we'd like to pass on our sincere con- gratulations to the team management and players on their accomplishment. It's not every day in the week that something like this happens. We know of the hard work that Ed Corbett and Ernie Chipchase have put into this club to make it a winner, so boys be proud! Once again, CONGRATULATIONS! BASEBALL ON THE UPWARD SWING? Who said baseball was a dead issue in these parts? After seeing the crowd that attended the Hen- sall game and the Labor Day affair in Dashwood be- tween the Tigers and Petrolia, this thought is hard to realize. Despite the fact crowds have been extremely low throughout the regular schedules, we feel the point has been proven that many ardent ball fans still exist. On Labor Day, back at Dashwood, we were surprised to see D. S. Newton of Forest was one of the 300 or so on hand to see the game. Although this is off the subject of baseball, "Newt" couldn't help but talk hockey while the ball players were warming up, He wondered if Exeter and the surrounding town teams were going back into the shillelagh business again this winter. Reports to date have Mitchell going homebrew and Lucan intermediate "B" or "A". Exeter is a question mark. According to our Forest friend, Forest Lakesides should be able to ice a pretty strong aggregation this winter. Although baseball was the business of the day, the hockey talk seemed to cool off the humid afternoon. HUNTING AND FISHING IS AN ATTRACTION District sports enthusiasts of hunting and fishing—have been taking advantage of the warm . spell this fall to participate in the favourite sports. Four local hunters left Friday on a 10-day excursion to Manitoba after geese and ducks. Doug- las Gould, Dr. R. F. Roelofson, Bill Lamport and Bill Allison planned to spend part of their time in The Pas. In the fishing department, this group of locals were really living! Glenn Fisher, Eldrid Simmons and Jim Pinder of Exeter and Jim McCullagh of Gravenhurst flew into northern Quebec for a week on. Wangoon Lake and caught 75 pike and pickerel over the weekend. Now this is no fish story. We've been convinced of this because fish stores in that neck of the woods are as scarce as hen's teeth. This foursome hooked 35 in one day. Eldrid Simmons caught the largest pike at an even seven pounds. The group was flown in by John McCullagh of North Bay who is a brother-in-law of Glenn Fisher. McCullagh flies for Orillia Air Lines. The most thrilling part of the journey was the airplane flight over dense bush. With nothing below but trees, the plane's motor conked out. After a few anxious moments by the passengers, Mr. McCullagh hooked into another tank of gas. He said the occur- rence is quite common. When one tank runs dry they just hook into another. Common occurrence or not, the 'three Exeter lads really sweated it out for a couple of minutes. CUFF CLEANERS—Students of South Huron District High School are being worked overtime at football practise by coaches Glen Mickle and Ron Bogart . Looks like the local high will have a pretty solid junior club in its first year of activity . . Incident- ally, did you notice Ron Bogart's name in the Lon- don Lords lineup when they tangled with the Detroit Raiders a few days ago. Looks as though he's made the grade. Nice going Ron! • . . Bill Musser was an unexpected guest in our office Monday morning. William came in to chat about the tremendous homer Mantle hit at Briggs Stadium on Saturday. The New York rooter really got a kick out of the Detroit an- nouncer when he said, "That one's gqist +Look at that ball go!

Bill Cochrane in- forms us that he has no interest in working another season on hockey. Last year's Mohawk president says that the club's deficit should be cleaned up in about six weeks. All is not lest, however, as more and more people seem to be taking an interest in the prospects of an intermediate "Tr operation again thiS winter.

Let's Talk SPORTS Hensall midgets maul Langton 12-6; ..win OBA title intwo straight games By DON GRAVETT T-A Sport* Editor Hensall "Oddfellows" Midgets ended a 20-year famine for an Ontario Baseball Association champion- ship Monday night when they whipped Langton Lions 12-6 to win the all-Ontario Midget "D" crown, An estimated crowd of between 500 and 000 eager spectators watched through drizzling rain from the stands and. parked cars as the Hensall lads turned back a determined Langton crew through chilling tem- peratures. The 12-6 decision was the second victory in as many outings for the locals and gave them the Ontario final best-of-three series in .two straight games. Hensall copped the. opener 12-11 in a real marathon affair in Langton on Thursday. Team manager Ed Corbett, possibly better known now as "Casey", and head coach Ernie Chipchase were well pleased with the efforts turned in by their boys in the two playoff games and throughout the regular sea- son. The Ontario champs carried on with the minimum of nine actual midgets through the regular campaign. In the playoffs, they picked up three bantams for re- serve bench strength. For the past three or four years this team has been knocking on the door as an all-Ontario champion only to be turned back in the semi-finals or finals of their division. This year, however, their dream material- ized. An all-Ontario championship was brought into Hen- sail! Steve Kyle fans 18 in Monday's clincher Catcher Bill Shaddick was in rare form as he cut down Bob Lieghfield and Joe Erdelac on theft attempts at second base.

This gave Hensall a 7.5 lead and they never looked back, Jack Chipchase, who followed Kyle to the plate in the sixth, greeted reliefer Gene White with a three-run homer into straight- away centre field. The circuit smash pushed Hensall into a 10-5 margin. First baseman Bob Mickle found his batting eye in this one as he singled in the fourth and seventh innings in three of- ficial trips to the plate. He also scored three of his club's 12 nips. Gerry Chapman set up two runs in the fourth with a dou- ble down the left field line after Mickle had singled. The pair rode home on Larry Jones' clutch single to left. Shaddick and Chipchase paced the r.b.i. column with three each. Jones, Bruce Horton, Steve Kyle and Larry Jones gained credit for two each.
