DECIDING GAME
TO WINGHAM 6-3
Wingham Hurons took the rubber
'game in their WOAA softball group
finalseries, with Clinton Richwears
by defeating the locals at Wingham
Monday evening by 6-3 before a
record crowd. Bert White, regular
thirdsacker for .Richwears, was on the
sick list.
Hurons, now advance against Walk-
erton in the next round for the title.
.As it was the third game of the
seriers, the , teams tossed for choice
of 'field' or bat. ' Clinton won and
took the field. Going into the last
of the ninth three runs down, Rich -
wears threw an awful scare into the
homesters. .With one out, Livermore
was safe on Niergarth's error. Miller
Walked. Glew flied to centre for the
second. out. Then Hawkins banged
one into deep right centre. which
Foster caught sensationally. If he
had missed the drive, the game might
have ended differently.
Gordon Rosshomer in the 8th,
searing Hawkins ahead of him,
featured.

OFTEN THE CHEAPEST ALWAYS THE BEST
CLINTON ELIMINATED
IN HENSAIL SERIES
IN TWO STRAIGHT
• Clinton Colts bowed out of the
linyon-Perth League and OBA com-
petition in two Straight, games,
the first in Clinton Thursday
evening last by 13-9, and the second
in Hensall Tuesday evening by .6-2
before a large srowd. They were
minus their star shortstop, the vet-
eran 'Bert White, Who was ill for the
second nista. '
Clinton Players and fans can now
wish HensaIrthe best of luck in their
quest for the- Ontario title; it looks as
if they may come up against Clinton
R. and C. S. in the first round of
the playdowns.
There was only one sour note in
the final game and that didn't con-
cern the two teams but the umpires --
Carmichael and Foster, Windham,.
The game was scheduled to start at
6 pm. SHARP; it did not get under
way until 643 p.m. Reason was
that the two imps did not arrive on
the field until about 6.25 p.m., al-
though both teams hadbeen ready to
play for well over half an hour and
the crowd was becoming impatient.
Here is what "Constitution and By-
laws 1946," Ontario Baseball Asso-
ciation, says: "National League Rules
to govern all games; and all twilight
genies in the' play-off series must
commence, viz., Every championship
game must be commenced not later
than two hours before sunset, etc.,
etc."
According to the Canadian Al-
manac for 1946, the sun set officially
at '7.04 pan. (EST) 'or 8.04 pm.
(EDST). In other words, the game
sheuld have got under way prior to
6.04 pm. instead of 28 minutes later.
And that 29 minutes might have
meant a lot of difference to the Colts!
As it was, the game had to be called
because of darkness at the end of
61h innings,all because the gents from
Wingham did not leave home soon-
er—or something.
As far as the game itself was con-
cerned, Fred (MacDonald and Joynt
hooped up in a nice pitchers' battle
which was decided by three good but
rather lucky hits for Hensall. One of
these landed along the right outfield
line and two others smashed into left
field just inside third base. The Colts
aided the good work by some loose
infield play and basesrunning, includ-
ing two men being caught off first
base after hitting safely, with none
out in each instance.

NINTH -INNING WIN
OVER GODERICH 5-4
Talk about a pitcher winning his
own ball game! That's what Ron
Wilson, smart R. and C. SI. righthand-
er did in a •sudden -death WOAA in-
termediate baseball group semi-final
match in Clinton .0ommunity Park
diamond Saturday evening. His team
defeated Go:led& Fliers 5-4 and qual-
ified to meet St. Marys for the group
.With the score tied 4-4 and two out
in the first of the ninth, Wilson sing-
led cleanly to right on the ground
between first and second. Bill Tiller
then popped a high spinner deep be-
tween first and second bases, which
Faulkner, Goderich second -sacker
dropped. Wilson raced for home with
the run which proved the winning
one. Walsh fanned to end the rally,
but Wilson's hit—the first safe one
off Bob Carrick since the fifth inning,
was enough to wn the long five -game
series with Goderich.
In the last half of the ninth, it was
nip -and -tuck and had the large crowd
of fans on their toes. Mero, the first
up for Goderieh beat out an infield
single to Gord Evans at short on a
close decision at first. Clemens
doubled to deep right on the ground
past first. Moro raced for home but
was mpped at the plate by Houle on a
perfect relay from Laurin to Muir to
Houle for the first out. Clemens
pulling up at third. Wilson pitched
superbly in this pinch and made W.
Westbrooke pop weakly to him and
fanned H. Westbrooke swinging to
end the game and the series.
It was a tough game for that vet-
eran southpaw, Bob Carrick, to lose.
