This year the Beaches league changed from the traditional softball style to the American- ized fastball. Pitching distance was lengthened from 40 feet to 46 feet and the smaller U.S. style softball is used. llis frustrated opponents in the Beaches league have paid him the highest compliment. It is a custom in softball to com~ plain that the pitcher is throw- ing the ball illegally when they can’t hit it. Thus cries that Pet- tenuzzo’s fastball, which leaves a vapor trail, is not a proper pitch are rained on the umpires- is improving all the lime For Pettenuzzo, this meant no major adjustment. It gives his lightning fastball that much more distance to hop. Pettenuzzo’s transfer to Tor- onto was easy. He is a barber and it was a simple matter for the Shells to arrange a chair for him in a local shop.

In the sixth Shells added five runs on only two hits as the Mel-O-Ripe team had difficul- ty finding the ball. The other feature of the week was the hitting of Skip DeGeer, who has played ball in Rich- mond Hill since his days as a junior. Skip. who has had dif- ficulty breaking into the Shell lineup to date, replaced the slumping A1 Tidsbury at short- stop and made the most of this opportunity to show what he can do. He raised his batting average from .222 to .412 with five hits and two runs batted in over the two games. At Kinsmen Park on Tues- day, the story was all Reno Pet- tenuzzo and the power hitting of the Shell big bats.

Four Point Win Reno Pettenuzzo. displaying the same razor sharp form that he showed in last year's On- tario finals did not allow a runner to reach first base as Tom Hughes Shell overpow- ered New Toronto Mel-O‘Ripes 13-0. Shell's made it a perfect week as the defeated Randall Roy Metals 7-3 in a four point game Wednesday night at Kew Gardens. Al Mugford opened the sec- ond inning by getting to third on a ball dropped by the right fielder. Pettenuzzo scored him with a single and at this point Hal Kemp took over the pitching chores for New Toronto. De- Geer walked and Conacher scored Reno with a double to make it 5-0 after two innings. Shells knocked starting pit- cher Moe Zabatiuk out of the box before the second inning was over. Hancock doubled and DeGeer singled to start the first inning.

In two exhibition games, Shells defeated North York Juniors 5-2 and in a real crowd-pleaser Saturday night defeated the California Cuties 1-0. This game was watched by 1,200 people at the town park. Saturday’s Game In the fourth, Shells added three more to take a 4-2 lead that they never gave up. Doug Watt walked to start things off. Bruce Staughton followed with his second home run in two nights, to make it 3-2. An- other run was added when Mugford and Deasley walked, Klazer singled and Hancock flied deep to score Mugford. Saturday and Sunday morn- ing swim periods from 10 to 12.30 noon are proving popular for family and group swimming. There is lots of room for all swimmers. no matter what their experience. Afternoon and evening public swimming on these two days are being patronized so well it has been found necessary to close and clear the pool in mid- afternoon to accommodate those who are waiting their turn. Once again Shells 'struck early as DeGeer walked and Conacher singled him to sec- ond. Dick Moulton followed with a single to score DeGeer with the first run. Randall Roy scored twice in the second inning on two walks and a hit, followed by a single by the ever-dangerous Fraser Scott that scored two runs. Randall Roy rallied again in the eighth, when Frank Mar- shall reached first on an error and scored on two hits by Ron Massey and Bob Smith. At this point, with Ab Deasley showâ€" ing signs of tiring, he was re- placed by Pettenuzzo, who quickly put out the rally by striking out Jack Shrub and Ty Crawford. In response to popular de- mand Richmond Hill Centennial Swimming Pool is introducing adult male swimming instruc- tion. These classes will be avail- able for one hour per week on Tuesday evenings starting at 9 o’clock. Interested adult males are asked to register at the pool office. Further information can be obtained by calling 884-6651. Because of the great demand for instructon in swimming and water safety by non-swimmers, it has been found necessary to extend these classes into the public swimming hours. For five days a week, the lessons pro- gram which got under way Mon- day will continue until three in the afternoon. Public swim- ming will be available from 3.30 to 5.30 and from 6.30 to 9 pm on week days. mumummmnuuumm|l1u1muuuuumuumnumuuuumumu game but tired in lhe eighth inning and needed help from Pettenuzzo to defeat Randall Roy Metals 7-3. Shells put the game on ice in the eighth as Ron Klazer hit a tremendous home run after Bruce Staughton walked and Al Mugford singled. Beach League fans are say- ing that Shells are the best team that has been in the league since the days of Charlie Justice and Tip Top Tailors. Bruce Staughton is a typical example of the type of player on the team. A member of the Metro Police Force, Bruce came to Shells with the reputation of a good glove, no hit, ball play- er. Bruce, who is hitting .355 with three home runs and 13 runs batted in, credits Coach Bill McBratney with his im- proved hitting by way of a new batting stance.
