.. -_ Dyncs Jewellers got. off to a ‘fiying start as they defeated Aurora 10-2 in the opening game of the OASA campaign. The Jewellers were "up" for this game. while Aurora seemed jittery and committed errors that prm‘ed to be very costly.

It can also be a real boon and blessing on really hot nights like when there’s a good propane fire on the go. A couple of weeks ago, give or take a day or two, members of the Kent Clothes Softball Team went for a swim after a game. They swam in the pool belonging to the parents of team members Gary and Clarence Palmer. Some people went in voluntarily and a few people got wet whether they wanted to or not. No matter how they got wet all hands had a ball and enjoyed the pool to the utmost. Then came the big Maple fire. Said pool is locat- ed right across the road from the propane property. It was real handy for dipping a hose into and pump- ing dry to throw water on the fierce fire. When Mr. bags loaded. A double through ‘the middle by Chico Fernandezi Ian and the Jewellers were oni their way. Two more Dynes runs were ’added in the second inning. Skip lDe Geer had singled and was ,on first base. A sharp single by lGary Smith was momentarily hobbled and the fleet Smith was on his way. His speed on the base paths seemed to unnerve the Aurora team and by the time they settled down. Smith had chased De Geer across the plate to add two more runs. ; Aurora scored their second and last run of the game in the Aurora threatened to add to their two run total on occasion but sound defensive ball by the Jewellers effectively squelched. any scoring bids. , Bowen In Relief 1 In the third inning with twoi - .________.._.._._.._:_; __ r men out and the Jewellers mounting a 5-2 lead.

The out- field play of Gary Smith and Chico Fernandez was nothing short of sensational as they went miles to turn certain hits. into routine outs. If the .Iewe1-‘ Iers continue to play to their present form, this could be a short series.
