There has been plentyof action
in the Zurich MAA sofball
league the past month, Some
score sheets have been turned in
but we have been unable to
write the games up because each
team is turning their score sheet
in separately, the date, opposit-
ion, or for that natter, the team
the sheet belongs to seldom is
niarked on the sheet. Score
sheets were printed and the
teams have received 'them. If
they want the games in the
paper the following will have to
be done.
The home team must complete
the score sheet for both teams,
mark the date on the sheet the
game is played, the names of
the two teams, see that the hits
and errors are marked on the
score sheet and most important,
the full name of the player. We
don't know who it is when it says
Bill or Bob. Also when a substit-
ute goes into the game there is
a place on the score card to
mark his name under the one he
replaces. Be sure, to mark the
inning the change is made as
well.
The games will be in the
Citizens News as soon as the
above is done.
If early games are any indicatio
then the Big Four football fans
are in for a great, season of foot-
ball play. The two games we
saw on TV were full of exciting
plays. If Montreal's new quarter-
back, Wade, keeps up his excit-
ing play and Toronto's, Tom
Wilkinson, keeps passing like he
has then there is going to be

with "Red" McIntosh
lots of long bombs and plenty of
scoring this year.
Ottawa will probably be too
strong for the rest of the league
but the fight for second place
should be a real battle with
Toronto grabbing it. Then we
think Montreal will be a little
better than Hamilton and grab
the last spot for playoffs.
It has happened. A lot of
people laughed and said how
crazy are those guys from Dash-
wood. They ought to have their
head read to think they can in-
stall lights, where will they get
the money?
Dashwood can laugh now. The)
didn't let the criticism bother
them. No, instead they went to
work, and worked hard. After
a lot of canvassing and work on
the diamond they saw their
dreams fulfilled Friday night
when the lights were turned on
and the umpire said play ball.
Dashwood deserves a lot of
credit, especially the people
who were so instrumental in
laying out the ground work for
the huge task. The boys who
worked at collecting, the vol-
unteer help, the people who did
something about their dream,
and the people who donated the
money can all be proud of
themselves and the new lights
at the Dashwood Athletic Field.
The people who laughed are
not laughing now and calling
the organizers of the Dashwood
light fund crazy. As a little
money is still needed to pay for
part of the expense we think that
a $10 donation from all the
people who made fun of those
who organized and saw the work
completed would be a good way
Charlies Dump
Bluewater Boys
Charlies Auto Sales came up
with their first win in their last
five starts last Wednesday night
as they downed the Bluewater by
a 23-6 score.
Charlies had three heavy inning:
scoring six runs in the first and
eighth frames, and seven in the
fourth. The six Bluewater runs
were scattered over four innings.
Twenty-three hits were counted
by the winners, with four, includ•
ing a triple, being contributed
by Jerry Rader; three by Ray
Finkbeiner, Kevin McKinnin,
Richard Turkheim, and Ron Des-
jardine; two by Paul Flaxbard,
Richard Schilbe and Gary Flax -
bard and one by Pete Regier.
Pitcher Dave Durand hit two
triples for the losers, while
single hits were added by Paul
Charrette, Bernie Denomme,
Clarence Rau, Tony Denomme,
and Percy Bedard.
Jerry Rader and Kevin McKinnor,
alternated innings on the mound
for Charlies.

to apologize.
The ball players around the
Zurich Rec League are almost
ready for the playoffs and they
are beginning to talk of lights
for their park next season. They
have received a boost of enthus-
iasm from the success that Dash-
wood has had with their cam-
paign and if they get started
now they may be able to start
next season with lights. They
wouldn't need as much money
and could probably raise it.
However, it will take a few guys
at the head of the committee
who have faith that it can be
done, who will work hard and not
let any criticism stand in their
way. We think it can be done
even though money is scarce and
the dollar does not seem to go
very far any more. If one
believes with all his heart that it
can be done, it can be done.
Only thing wrong is that you
can't just think about it and get
it done. Add a lot of hard work
and desire and the job is almost
completed.
Zurich and Dashwood are hook-
ed up in OBA play and all garnes
are under the lights at Dashwood.
This will be a good series and if
the fans get out and support their
favourite team this playoff
