Colts Cone Close
Lose To Mitchell'
Doing. Aitcheson, Mitchell Leg-
ionaire pitching ace, was in top„
form here last evening. He limit-
ed the Clinton team to one . Ione
hit and a single run while his
Metes took advantage of one dras-
tic Clinton error to score two runs
and give him the margin he need-
ed. It was by far the best game
that'the Colts have played this
season. They' madeonly two er
rors and executed their first-doub--
le play.
BIB McDonald" Pitches Brilliantly
Bill McDonald, who has been a
star with the ,Auburn` Juveniles
for the past few seasons made
his pitching debut. He pitched
brilliantly allowing seven scatter-
ed hits. His work in keeping base -
runners close to the bags was a
treat to behold as he picked
Aitcheson off second and Colqu-
houn off third: Bill will be a big
boost sto the Colts' pitching .de-
partment . and teamed with Ken
Patterson, Doug Bartliff and Ron
Hugill the Local shouldn't have to
take a back seat from any; team
1n the league in this department,
Manager leugh llawkins hadto
juggle his lineup again and had
Rick Elliott on first, Johnny Hart-
leey at short and Bill Craig, back
at his old familiar spot in centre
field, All these players played
their positions perfectly.
One spot' where the team is
weak is in bench strength, It is
hoped to have Clarence Neilans,
Bob Craig, Bob Draper and Laurie
•Colquhoun back in uniform to
fill this need. If these men come
• out and regain some of their bat-
ting prowess, opposing pitchers
may well start to shake when
they get into a tight spot against
Clinton.

Auburn's twice Ontario champ

for the Clinton Lions Midgets here
on Monday night. They: submerg

of six walks . and nine errors to,
collect' their large total, The Clin-
ton team got off to a flying start~
and at the end of the second. in-

that, point it was a. case of just
how many the visitors would get.
Three Auburn pitchers took turns
in muffling the Clinton bats.
They allowed only, one bit. That
safety: came off the bat of Rom

Colts In Cellar
Lose Fifth Game
To St. Marys
Clinton's, once high and mighty
Colts, who once used to look
down the standing of the Huron -
Perth League at their opponents
are looking the opposite way to-
day. When St. Marys, handed
them their fifth straight 'set -back
they took over sole possession of
the bottom rung of the league, one
game back of the boys from the
"stone town".
However, with their loss to St.
Marys they started to show signs
of awakening from their hitting
slump. The Colts banged out a
total of 13 safe blows including
three doubles and a triple. Ken
Patterson, who relieved Doug
Bartliff at the beginning of the
second, was tagged for five runs
in the third but finished in bril-
liant style. Ken struck out 11
men and proved that he will be a
powerful addition to the Colts'
pitching staff.
Fletcher, Brooks and Walton
provided the spark for St. Marys
with two each. Fletcher's three -
run triple being the big blow of
the third inning that gave the
visitors their margin of victory.
