RCAF Ousts Baden
Now in Final Round
(By an RCAF reporter)
The fourth game of the semi-
final's for. the WOAA Interaned---
iate '13" softball championship
was played on the RCAF sports
field on Tuesday night, and saw
RCAF win their third game to
oust Baden Pirates from further
competition in the "B" series this
year.
Clinton will now meet the
winners of the Keady-Paisley
series for the Western Ontario
championship. The first game
should get under way sometime
next week.
Big "Wally" Wallace on the
mound far the RCAF, although
troubled by wildness, came
through in fine style to post his
seventh win against only one loss
this Gleason. The Srigheighit of
the _ game was two successive
homeruns by Bob Powell, each
time with one man on blase.
The batting stars for Clinton
were Powell, Pyke, Boyczuk,
Fitzsimmons and Pittman. These
five accounted for 14 of the 18
hits given up by Miller.
Baden .... 011 301 003— 9 7 3
Clinton ... 201 130 33x-13 18 4
A quick resume of this series
shows RCAF winning the first
game
at Bader, 7-4. In the sec -
game played • at Clinton,
Wallace, on the mound for the
RCAF, came up with a brilliant
pitching display and helped win
his own ball game by hitting
two home runs, one of them a
grand slam homer. The third
game was played at Kitchener
Under the lights and sang Baden
winning 12-9, The fourth game
mentioned above went to Clin-
ton 13-9.
Needless to say, it was a very
happy group of ball players that
left the ball field Tuesday night
as this is the first- time in the
history of Station softball that a
team from here has been able to
eliminate the Baden Pirates.

CLINTON COLTS
ELIMINATED
BY DASHWOOD,,
Repeating history made a year
ago, Dashwood's dashing young-
sters eliminated Clinton Colts
two games to one from' the
Huron -Perth Baseball League
race by trimming the locals 14-8
at Hensall Saturday afternoon.
Colts had won the first game
of the semi-finals at Dashwood
10-2, but had lost the second
game in Clinton', 6-4.
In the league finals, Mitchell
defeated Dashwood in the first
match at Mitchell Monday even-
ing 9-1. e
Colts never really did get go-
ing at Hensall Saturday, but it
was only in the latter stages that
Dashwood ttioreefll`-Coltsi to the
limit. The count stood 4-1 for
Dashwood at the end of the fifth,
Clinton still being within strik-
ing distance.
Doug Bartliff twirled respect-
able ball for four innings, but
was relieved by Gordan Stock
in the fifth, who finished the
game. Robinson iiitohed for
Dashwood, but was relieved by R.
Wein in the sixth.
Big hitter was Ray Wein of
Dashwood with three iii six,
while two safe hits were knocked
out by Patterson and Ken Col-
quhopn of Clinton, and Robin-
son, Jim Hayter, Corriveau and
Regier ' of Dashwood.
Art Woodcock, Colt third -
sacker, had an unassisted doable
play in the fourth, and Dash-
wood had one in the seventh,
pitcher to shortstop..

New Canadian Has
Close Call in Crash
Only a shaking -up was the out-.
come of an accident Sunday,
when a car owned by a Holland-
er, Gerrit Vandenberg, Hensall,
went out of control on loose
gravel, went through the sides- of
a bridge and landed in the water.
The accident happened in Stan-
ley Township, about two miles
northwest of Kippen. The side
rail of the .bridge was knocked
aft by the impact and the car
received about $200 damage.
Provincial Constable Hebnar
Snell, Seaforth, investigated.

THE swimming pool is about
the most popular spot' on the
station, and with the arrival of
the WOW's it should add a little
colour to the spectators (the col-
our of 'bathing suits I mean). I
had the pleasure of 'calking to
some of the girls (pleasure I said
and pleasure I meant), and from
the way they express themselves
they seem to be quite satisfied
with the station, They are look-
ing forward to starting their
courses. I noticed that when they
started the long grind of signing
on the unit a graduation parade
was in progress and it seemed
quite fitting that the new uni-
form of the WOW's were in the
background of this parade. Good
luck Kids.

THE builders are well on their
way with the building of the new
Officers Mess over at the main
highway and the steel has been
received for the new barrack
block. Foundations have been
started on the new stores build-
ing and Sergeant's Mess so a new
city any day can 'be expected
to pop its head from under the
soil. The second lean to of the
Recreation centre is nearly com-
pleted so more room and sports
are expected to flourish for the
fall and winter season.

THE V2 Rocket has arrived
and been erected at the CNE
and will be on display 'as part of
the Tri Service Exhibit. Many
persons viewed the missile last
year and wondered' how this
46 foot five -ton bomb could ever
travel through space. If be
chance you get to the Ex. make
sure you see the Rocket and the
hard work of F/L Morris end
WO Refausse and the Guided
Missile Section. (Believe me the
headache that went with this
bomb to Toronto was terrific).

WELL, I guess that just aboat
clears up my little chit-chat and
right now would 'be a good time
for me to pull up stakes and say
so long for now. Remember this—
School starts shortly and more
kiddies will be on the roadways—
drive carefully. Bye now--,

Sutter -Perdue
A sixteen-yeax-5old southpaw,
Bob C'arrick., 'twirled a no -hit,
no -run game at Hanover Satur-
day afternoon to give Clinton
Lions Midgets a 5-0 shutout and
the WOAA semi=final Midget,
"A" baseball series .. in " two
straight encounters.Lions had.
won at home 11-3 in the first
match.
Manager Stewart Tay+lor's kids
now are awaiting for the ••winner
of the Elora -St. Marys series in.
the WOAA finals and the right
to proceed, in the OBA pl'aydowns.
It was a great victory' for the
Lion's, Coach Les Henderson, and
for Carriok, who also struck out
19 opposing batters of the 27 outs
in the game for an average of
more than two an inning. The
team played errorless ball behitd
him. Not one ball was hit to the
outfield and all the rest were
fielded cleanly.
Six walks and one hit batsman
were on the debit side of the
story, but not one runner stored,
although the first two up in the
fourth walked. One of these was
forced at second and the next
two batters fanned. After pas-
sing the first batter up in the
ninth, Carrick struck out the
next three in order.
Needless to say, Lions were'
"right on", although they had
only nine players on deck. Garon
and Jenkins had two safeties, the
former a triple and a double, and
Bill Carrick, Holmes, Carter,
Patterson, and Jim Howes, each
singled.
Bill Cooney was credited with
eight strikeouts for Hanover.

CONSIDERABLE
PLOWING DONE
FOR FALL WHEAT
"Pastures continue to make
excellent growth for this time of
year, with all cattle in very good
condition," John D. Butler, As-
sistant Agricultural Representat-
ive for Huron County, reported
today.
"Continuance of wet weather
held a -p harvesting operations
considerably last week. Most
farmers in the southern part of
the county have completed
threshing, while others in -the
central end northern sections
still have some grain to cut.
"Considerable plowing has been
done in preparation for fall wheat
and we have been receiving a
number of inquiries concerning
fall wheat for sale," Mr. Butler
stated. Soybeans, turnips and
field beans in the county look
very good and good yields are
expected.
