Clinton Celts made a clean the plate, thus constituting the
first all -southpaw :cattery seen
here in many a moon. The dim-
inutive Malcho, a veritable base-
ball "funny man", used a decker
for a righthander almost as big
as himself. He was a one-man
show.
The Cult sluggers went to
town in the third for seven run's
and in the seventh for four
counters. Mitchell threatened in
the seventh with a trio on four
hits.

ELIMINATED
BY, GODERICH
Lacking their stalwart receiv-
er, Harold "Wally" Walsh, who
injured ' a finger in Monday's

out of the Huron -Perth Base-
ball League' Intermediate ." "B"
playoffs when they lost at Gode-
rich 12-1 last night.

week first was awarded to Gode-
rich on account of a continued
dispute over the umpire's decis-
ion, but the League ordered a
re -play.
The second game in Clinton
Monday evening resulted in an
8-6 victory for Goderich, al-
though Don Robertson racked up
no less than 13 strikeouts for

visitors 11-8. Box score of this
game is published', elsewhere on
