12 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Onfiario, Thursday, September 22, IIIIIIIIII After several years of doing things the hard way, and, incidentally doing a first class job at that, Mr. Dugald McLean has acquired a tractor. For a long time “Duigie” has done the job of maintaining the local baseball factory by hand. The R.H.BV.A. decided that a garden tractor was the anSWer and Stan Ransom, Mick- ey Smith and Duigie were empowered to see what they could find. The trio came across a small riding tractor that was complete with attachments and seemed to be just about the right size. The deed was done and the pur- chase consummated forthwith. If you should be down in the vicinity of the Town Park and see a beaming gentleman riding on a tractor that looks like it has shrunk from being left out in the rain, that’s no il- lusion. luslon. . . Maintenance Will be a lot eas1er from here on 1n and the good Lord knows -â€" if anyone deserves to have his lot made easier â€" that man is Mr. McLean. Just watch it though Duigie â€"â€" and no traffic tickets for speeding. Those you’ll have to pay yourself. â€" SPORTS SPOTS -- What do you do when everyone in your family ex- cept a six year old daughter beats you bowling? If you have a solution please let us know as wife, daughâ€" ter and son are clobbering the daylights out of us every time out. Wonder how they'd do at jai-lai? â€" SPORT SHOTS â€" This year fans of the Wimbridge Cleaners Softball Club are due for a break. Not only is their favourite Ontario Championship against Sault Ste. Marie, but the whole series is to be played in Richmond Hill. This is the year that the O.A.S.A. have slated the Intermed- iate “AA” crown to be decided in Southern Ontario and the series â€"- three games if necessary â€" will be com- pleted in one Weekend. The date of the series is not yet confirmed and could possibly be Thanksgiving .weekend. â€" SPORT SHOTS â€" The Kinsmen sponsored midget O.B.A. team, rep- resenting Richmond Hill, is, from all accounts, a very fine baseball team indeed. We have been taken to task for not giving them more coverage, but somehow we just don’t have the time to be in all the places we should be at the same time. Some things can be learned but this _ability is 7 downright impos_sible.J The Wimbridge Team have had things pretty well their own way to date by knocking off the opposition in straight sets. We only hope they can keep up the pace and bring a softball title to our town. People who are interested in the team and their progress, and We all are, have only to call yours truly or “The Liberal” office with a few pertinent facts and then we’ll all be much happier. The kids DO have a great ball club and quite possibly will add another 011. tario championship to the laurels already won by Rich- mond Hill. '“ivl'ééEé remember â€" a phone call with just a few pertinent facts is all that is needed for credit and rec- ognition to be given. Won’t you help? â€" SPORT SHOTS â€"- Bayview High School may not be completed but already school spirit is riding high. The two schools, Bayview High and Richmond Hill High are sharing the faclities of the Richmond Hill school and the pupils are attending in shifts. It all seems to be working out rea- sonably well with the schools playing exhibition football games and each school has its own cheer leader section. Maybe it is somewhat inconvenient but the pupils don’t seem to be suffering and maybe they’ll all get something valuable out of mutual co-operation. 30A Yonge St. South Open Tuesday & Friday evenings.

Intermediate “AA” Southern Ontario Championship. The Cleaner Team had beaten Stratford 7â€"3 in Stratford to take the lead in the series and had no trouble winning the deciding game in Richmond Hill by a’ 15-3 score. Down one game, the Stratford team seemed to be pressing and more than a bit over anxious as errors were committed in the first inning that were indicators of worse yet to come. The Strat- Wimbnge Cleaners Defeat Stratford 15-3 To Win Series Wimbridge Cleaners opened the Southern Ontario Championship playoff round by downing Stratford 7-3 in Stratford on Saturday, September 10. The win gave the Cleaners a big edge in the best two out of three series for the Intermediate “AA” O.A.S.A. championship of Southern Ontario. The winner of the series will be going into the All-Ontario finals. The game was a fast, well played affair on a diamond that was lightning fast. Coaches Russ Cripps and Mickey Smith had nothing but praise for the fine performance put on by catcher Glen’ Wright. The player who drew raves from all team members was pit- cher Norm Roberts. The side- wheeler pitched a starry game as he got fifteen men to bow wut via the strike-out route and his slow ball was completely demor- alizing to the Stratford club. Mr. Roberts also put on a terrific fielding display as he made stops on line smashes through the box that were almost certain hits. Kinnari Starts Off South MOnI.

The Indians were good value for their shut out win and had two T.D.’s called back while they were alert enough to capitalize on miscues made by the team from East To- ronto. The offensive team played a great game but the defensive unit rose to‘ great heights as they frustrated the East Enders attack.

T.D. In 1st Quartet The first scoring play came late in the first quarter on a pass from quarterback Ian Mc- Intosh to Denny Lynch. It was a 20 yard pass and run play with the sure fingered Mr. Lynch crossing into paydirt territory. The attempted convert went as- tray and the Indians had a 6-0 lead. ’ Wilson Scores Two Fullback Bill “Red” Wilson scoring parade. In the second quarter McIntosh hit Wilson with a screen pass that went fifteen yards for the score and the can'- vert was good on a pass from McIntosh to Bob Sheridan. Wilson’s second T.D. came in the third quarter as he broke around the end for 20 yards and the score. The convert was kicked by John Favery to make the score 20~0. The Indians had a marked territorial advantage throughout the game and the play of Jerry McGowan, Jimmy Preston; Gus Boneshanker and Bill Wilson Was outstanding. Quarterback Ian McIntosh again proved that he is a very capable signal caller and‘a quarterback who runs and passes with real skill. Jimmy Preston played a stela lar game despite being on the limp with a knee injury. Jim has torn ligaments in one knee but plays as well as any man with two sound legs. The Indians will open the sea- son locally on September 24th at the town park. Game time is 2.00 pm. and the opposition is Rexdale. Coach Madeley feels that he has a real contender this year and fans should really enjoy this game.

Mr. Crysdale called upon Turk Broda to show the crowd what a fine bowler he was and des- pite a bad ankle the “Turkey” produced a fine strike. Reeve Haggart was then booked to bowl a challenge match against Mayor Ken Tomlin but as Mr. Tomlin was unable to attend Mr. Crysdale matched Reeve Hag- gart against Turk Broda and, sad to relate the Turk won very handily. If ever a most valuable player award is given to the Cleaner team the undoubted recipient would be Norm Roberts. He has pitched the team to victory time after time and his fielding has been superb. At one time Norm used to rear back and fire, de- pending on his speed to baffle the would-be batsman. The season has changed all that and to go along with the fireball is an as- sortment of junk that is really paying big dividends. Norm Rob- erts is a better pitcher today than he ever was before as he is throwing with his head as well as his strong right arm, a most effective combination.
