TIDE TOME PAPER
COLTS 'ADD TWO .MORE
TO WIN COLUMN
Clinton Colts chalked up another
victory on the morning of the First
of July in a Huron -Perth League
game on the local diamond, against
Mitchell, winning by the close score
of 10 to 8.'
The game was close and exciting
all the way and lacked only a more
substantial portion of fans to make
the morning complete. The "locals
were shy several players, but in spite
of this turned in a
creditable Pex ormance White, regular second base-
man
aseman
was absent, and Hawkins took
his place. Hanson was absent from
fustnd Pickett had to be° brought
a g
in ,from the outfield to take his
place, and Pickett's place was taken
in the outfield by one of our juveniles,
Jack Butler. There was also a slwrt-
age of pitchers, with Stock and Hovey
absent. Slim Brant started. and work-
ed six innings, when he was relieved
by Freddie MacDonald, third. base-
man.
Numerous changes were also made
in the Mitchell lineup during the
gave.
Mitchel' was away to a flying
start in. the first inning, when, due
to Clinton errors they put three runs
across,but after that the locals set-
tled down and the rest of the game
was errorless as far as Clinton was
concerned.
Slim Brant pitched a fine game for
Clinton, having eight strikeouts in
the first four innings, but in the
sixth his arm gave out, due possibly
to the fact that he hadP itched nine
innings the night before in Blyth,
and he was relieved by MacDonald,
who was nicked for four runs in the
last three innings.
After their three -run splurge in the
first inning, Mitchell collected noth-
ing but goose -eggs for the next four
and during that time Clinton caught
them and took the lead with four
runs.
In the fifth Clinton stored two
more, but Mitchell deadlocked the
count at 6 -all with one run in the
sixth and two in the seventh.
The homesters remedied that, how-
ever in their seventh, when MtEwan
and Butter both crossed the plate.
Mitchell was blanked in the eighth
while the locals accounted for two
more to make the score 10-6. The vis-
itors reduced the deficit by two runs
in their ninth to leave the locals two
runs up.

The Clinton Colts took the Exeter
boys into camp in Exeter on Tuesday
night by the score of 16-2. Gordie
Stock pitched steady ball all the way
for Clinton, while his team -nates
backed him up almost perfectly afield
and most of the boys had a big night
at bat as the score would indicate.
Exeter proved no match for the clas-
sy Clinton boys, who at the present
thne look like the class of the Huron -
Perth League.
The game scheduled with. Zurieh
here on July 14th has been postponed
to a later date owing to Zurich play-
ers being away on that date.
Juveniles Have Easy Time
With Zurich
The Clinton Juveniles walked 'all
over their opponents' from Zurich
yesterday evening trouncing them to
the tune of 21 to 1 in a five inning
ball game on the local diamond.
The Zurich lads proved very weak
opposition for their bigger rivals, and
for a while in the first inning it look-
ed like they would never get Clinton
out. Before the side was retired
Clinton had scored nine runs. It was
in this inning 'that the Clinton boys
did their heavy hitting. Bob Draper
connected for a long drive into right
field, right to the fence, for a home
run. " Clarence Neilans, up to bat
twice in the inning got a three -bag-
ger each time. Several other players
hit for extra bases.
Bob Draper pitched the first three
innings, only ninemen facing 'him,
and out of the nine he struck eight
out the other being thrown out at
first. He was replaced by Jack But-
ler, left hander, who twirled the last
two innings. Zurich got their only.
run in the fourth inning. Clarence
N'eilans and Dick Fremlin divided
catching duties for the locals.
