Flyers advance to next round
by Ace
On Saturday, the
Fleming Flyers defeated
Forest by a score of 5-1 to,
win a ('ity Cup
preliminary round game.
The Clinton team now
advances to the next
round in soccer, where
they -will be challenged by
the London German -
Canadians.
Against the Forest
team, the Flyers grabbed
an early 2-0 lead, as Bill
Cantelon scored two
quick goals. Cantelon's
first goal w:is a shot
which cleanly beat the
Forest net minder to the
right hand side. Cantelon
utilized his speed for a
second goal as he
outraced the Forest
defence and the goalie to
the bald and tipped it into
the unguarded net.
Clinton went ahead 3-0
just before halftime on a
picturesque goal, as Alex
Harrett, with a pinpoint
pass, set up John Elliott
who drilled ,the ball into
the goal.
Forest came out strong
in the second half and cut
the Flyers' margin to 3-1
with a perfect free kick to
the top left corner inside
the Clinton 18 yard line.
Clinton held on and took
a 4-1 lead as Harrett
cleanly beat the Forest
keeper with a head ball,
only to have it hit the goal
post. Fortunately Elliott
was "Johnny on the spot"
and placed the ball in the
open side. Elliott com-
pleted his hat trick in only
his fourth game with the
team, as his shot
deflected off a Forest
defender past the goalie.

At the Seaforth tee
By
Carolanne Doig
It was a grand weekend
for golfing,and along with
ottr'mari'y "regular golfers,
we had many visitors.
Some were here for the
'fir'st time, while others
were past' members
spending the weekend in
Seaforth and managing to
get in a couple of rounds,
while here. Many
familiar faces were back
and all commented on the
good condition our course
was in.
One familiar face was
lost on the weekend. The
old apple tree on the fifth
tee decided that it has
obstructed golfers long
enough. On Saturday
afternoon over it went.
One less excuse for many
of us!
Sunday was busy, busy,
busy and with such a
crowd . out here. there

Smallman of London had

George Wood of
London, Brad Mann and
Lloyd Venner of Hensall

were some complaints
about slow playing,
fivesomes, and waiting
around at the tees. These,
have promoted me to
include some information
here regarding golfing
etiquette on_ as . most
people would say
"Courtesy on the Cour-
se". A film of this title is
available from the golf
association and we hoe
to include this on our
family film night.
Courtesy on the course
is of major concern to us
both as participating
golfers • and club
managers. It is important
that all golfers have an
enjoyable time on the
course and no ill feelings
are caused through
neglect or bad manners.
On a small course like
ours, a busy day often
results in a build up of
playeron -.the tees_and-.a.
certain amount of waiting
results.
;Golters_ . must
remember that many
people are unaware of
some of the. `4manners" in
golf, not intentionally, but
because for many it is a
new sport and they don't
realize that they may be
doing the wrong thing.
For many the word
foursome is not a
household word.
Therefore the new golfers
do not understand- the
groups larger than 4 are

Clinton controlled the
play throughout most of
the game with some
excellent passing and
smart plays. The Clinton
defence played a strong
match, limiting the
Forest team to anly a few
shots.
Richard Johns was
outstanding at the
halfback position,
showing excellent poise
and confidence.
The next game for the
Flyers will be held this
Saturday, June 2 when
they host the London
Yugolsays for a 3 pm
match. The game will be
played at the high school,
due to the Spring Fair
taking place at the
regular playing field.
On Tuesday, June 5 the
Flyers will host the
German Canadians in the
next round of the City
Cup. The, game will be
played at the Clinton
Community Centre at
6:30 pm.
