Clothiers Defeat Legion By 2-] ” Kent Clothes went on a brief rampage in the seventh inning as they defeated 400 Legion in Richmond Hill by a score 6f 2-1. Bob Finnegan singled to open the inning for Kents _ Two years ago she started to swim competitiver under the guidance of Mr. George Wiskin of the North York Lions Club. Five days a week she can be found churning the water at the indoor pool in Wil- lowdale. Most weeks she averages four to six hours of official practice time per week but, prior to a big swim meet the training sessions are stepped up con- siderably. She'll also sneak in some extra pool time whenever the opportunity presents itself. Most people aren’t aware of it but the (‘an- adian Age Class Swimming Championships Were held in Montreal from July 24 through 271h. And Miss Aho was there - very much so! _ The young Thornhill miss set a new Canadian record by swimming the 100 metre breast stroke in a time of one minute, twenty nine and six tenths seconds. The previous record for the event was 1.33.9 so that elementary arithmetic shows she knocked 4 and 3/10th of a second off the old record. That isn’t breaking a record - that's shattering it!’ Naturally she won the event and defeated the holder of the old record. Camille Bricault of Montreal. The water world holds much promise for the young lass. Prior to her concentrating all her efforts to per- fect the breast-stroke. Lorraine was also the holder of the 100 metré butterfly record. During the past year she has concentrated solely on the breast stroke and saw her butterfly record toppled in the Montreal meet. Her coach and swimming mentor wants her to attend the American National Swim Championships to be held in South Carolina next month. Her family are of the opinion that she is a little young for such a venture right now. She’ll probably be all set for next year. She was allowed to compete in lthe American Junior Nationals held at Buffalo but a leg injury prior to the meet washed out all hope of success. This is another meet she has her sights set on for next year: u SWIMMING ACE LORRAINE AHO As every school child knows full well, this is the age of speed. The age is best exemplified by the "use of the word “instant” in many and varied coup- lings. There’s “instant” coffee, “instant” tea, “in- stant” potatoes and “instant” lather: some finance institutions almost come right out and offer “in- stant” money. For most of these “instant” gadgets the recipe is fairly simple - just add water and stand Well back-chemistry will do the rest. ‘ Down in Thornhill at number three Elmbank Rd. the)r have a different sort. of “instant”. Like most of the other “instants” you just add water and stand back, well back. The result is a thir- teen year old human torpedo who happens to answer to the name of Lorraine Aho. Lorraine began to swim at the age of four, just the time when most little girls are pushing around doll buggies and riding tricycles. None of these ex- actly filled the bill for Miss Aho. She found the water ,to be much more fun. The results have been startling. Like most girls of her age Lorraine is an arid collector. Not. records (playable type, that is) but medals and trophies for - you’ve got it Clara! - swim- ming! According to her Dad they're sort of jumbled up in her room. And it’s a good sized jumble! Just why it should be we're not quite sure but Lorraine - like many another talented young athlete - is an honour student at 'l‘hornhill Sec- ondary School. How they find time to maintain “A” averages in the book factory and concentrate on their favorite specialty is a mystery. And. come to think of it. that’s probably the answer. They know how to concentrate! Aside from aquatic endeavours Lorraine enjoys track and field sports. Her coach is a great believer in running as a wind conditioner but she is not al- lowed to compete in any running; event. Running competitively encourages a concentration of muscle that spells cramp for a swimmer so that track had to be verboten from sheer necessity. It’s to her credit that she realizes this and is able to discipline herself accordingly Next year. 1964. is an Olympic year. At age 14 Lorraine has not yet reached the peak of her swimming form. But 1968 is also an Olympic year and (we hate to bring up a lady‘s age) she'll be 18. Five years is a long. long way to look ahead but it could be - just could be! In the meanwhile she'll carry on with the train- ing routine. enter lots of meets and gain valuable experience. Don't forget the name Lorraine Aho. You may be hearing a lot more of it in years to come!

A badly shaken Dynes team went through the motions but never did get untracked for the rest of the game. target and into the dirt.

Ray Judd struck out twenty and for the first twenty and for the first three innings was being caught by Gary Smith. This was an experiment that backfired as Smith was not able to handle the smoking shots thrown by Judd.
