Gord Webb hit a hounder back to Pitcher Rhora who proceeded to throw the ball past first base and into the dugout. Carrick scored all the way from second. He struck out three. Rhora four. Winning pitcher for Washington was Bob Corrigan who shared mound duties with Larry Heath. Each pitcher gave up single hits but weren't helped by the fact that their teammates made five errors. four of them in one inning. Washington opened the scor- ing in the second inning as Ken Deitcher doubled. went to third on a passed ball, and then home on Ron Pettovello's single. Then came the bottom of the sixth as the Jewellers loaded the bases on three errors with George Chapman then scoring on yet another error. Bob Ken- nedy. pinch-hitting for Duane Reid. struck out. Brian Ferry flew out. and Bob Shelston foul- ed out to the catcher. That was it for Dynes. A throwing error cost the Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers a chance to win the “A” Championship in the Klondike Days Fastball Tournament in Edmonton over the weekend. Domik One Hitter The Jewellers came back in the second game that day to defeat Regina Carlings 3-0 beâ€" hind the one-hit pitching of Bob Domik. Domik struck out six in the seven-inning game and walked two. Losing pitcher was Fred Gardner who gave up seven hits. He struck out four and walked none. But they went on to win their next three games and take the "B” segment of the same tournament and the O‘Keefe Trophy.

Smith drove him to third with a single and Downing sacrificed him home. They managed another two runs to tie the score in the bottom of the fifth when Snuth got on with a walk and Down- ing wielded the big bat for a circuit trip driving Smith across the plate also. The games were part of the summer boys program and were played during the past two weeks at the various schools. Softball along with swimming, crafts, excursions and various other activities make up the regular program for the playgrounds. 7 The score remained tied 3-3 until the bottom of the ninth when Chapman and Smith were on with singles and with two out Les Domains connected for another homer. making the final score Dynes 6.

The Jewellers play host to Winston Park Caterers tonight (Thursday) in a doubleheader which begins at 7:30 pm. Chapman got four hits. Smith three and Downing two homers and a sacrifice to win this one for the Jewellers; Local Bowler Wins Three Times Local Lawn Bowler James Grainger had a real winning streak last week. He climaxed it on Sun~ day when. with Judy Wales, he took top spot in the mix- ed doubles tournament on the local greens. Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Baker of Clare- mont and Mr. and Mrs. William Bryceland of Agin- rourt were the other prize winners. (Photo by Stuart’s Studio) His first Win came Wed- nesday when he. Russell Lynett and Floyd Perkins were second for three wins in Claremont. With Mrs. Grainger he won the Sweetheart Tom-n- ament at Kew Beach on Saturday. The next tournament on the local greens will be mixed trebles on August 5 (Civic Holiday Weekend.) 1113112 {metal Horst Delschlegel 4 Goals For Rangers Horst Delschlegcl came play Saturday night for Richmond Hill Soccer Ran; against Newmarket BroV Thistles. He opened the scoring for the Rangers at the 30 second point of the game. Then he went on to score three more to lead his team to a convincing 5-1 game played at H u r o n Heights Secondary School. The other goal went to Vince Forttell late in the sec- ond half. Goalkeeper John Zinderdine played a spectacular game for Richmond Hill and had no chance on the only score against him. He was aided by solid perâ€" formances from every member of the team under hot. sticky playing conditions. The Rangers ‘have been playing winning ball since an early-season shaky istart. The Rangers play Barrie'City this Saturday in Barrie. By FRED SIMPSON Of Things And Garters Yes, there are losers and there are Winners in this weary old world. I come back from holidays minus a $50 bill t(threw it away by mistake) and $13 (speeding icket). The revered Russell “Casey” Cripps of the Rich- mond Hill Dynes Jewellers comes back from Edmon- ton’s “Klondike Days” on the weekend with a red garter. I guesa that classifies him as a winner. He didn’t say who it belonged to but I probably wouldn’t know the name anyway. Likely a local girl. I should/hasten to add (for the benefit of Casey’s loved ones) that the garter went with the celebrations. I mean it was a ceremonial-type garter. Like it wasn’t for real. I don’t think. Help, I don’t know anything about it at all. Just know it was a garter. Meanwhile back at this side of the sports desk. The same Mr. Cripps informs me also that he spent a. couple of hours in jail during the height of festiv- ities in Edmonton. He claims that this was also a ceremonial occasion. Apparently (as the story goes) the local powers-that-be arrested every one not carrying a memento of “Klondike Days” on hie person. So they nabbed Mr. Cripps and hustled him off to the el ”jugâ€"o He stated it cost a silver “Klondike Days” dollar to get out. Plus a red gaiter He finally got both. That’s what he says anyway. The red garter kept him out of jail the rest of the time. I believe him. While on the subject of the Jewellels Up on arm 111g back this week I noticed a sheet on my pdesk advertising that big “weekend comirig up August 30 to September 5 which will also be in Edmonton. That will be the Canadian Softball Champion- ships. The notice states that for a total price of $221.50 any sports fans can take in the games. This includes a round trip by Air Canada jet and accommodation at the Hotel MacDonald. Sounds like a real good deal from this source.

CAN YOU SPARE $221K (Continued on Page 12) ame to for the Rangers Brown's 7756 YONGE ST. - THORNHILL SHOOTING NOT ENJOYABLE Dear Mr. Sports Editor;â€" A letter in your July 20 iSSUe from Bill Richardson of the Whitchurch Conservation Club states that it is unfortunate that "This girl was needlessly injur- ed by the hands of an untrained and unsupervised youth . . " She probably thinks so, too. The writer. presumably writ- ing as a member of the conser- vation club suggests that young ‘people should be trained in the use and good practice of fire- arms as a safe and enjoyable sport. As one who enjoys the out. doors and the opportunities and the birds and beasts which live there. I would ask Bill Richard- son the following questions: 1. For whom is the use of firearms. as a "sport". either safe or enjoyable? It cannot be more than 50 percent of those living beings involved in shoot- ‘ing or being shot and is often lless than 50 percent. 2. What is the conservation 50? club attempting to conserve? Is the sport loving'members thereof trying to conserve the rbeauty and life of the country- sideâ€"or is the object the con- servation of enough rural life for them needlessly to butcher. RONALD PERRY 298 Palmer Avenue. i Richmond Hill WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT? Dear Mr. Sports Editor: With regard to the report of a bantam girls‘ softball team game which appeared in your issue of July 20 under the head- ing. “Would You Believe It. 52 Runs In 315 Innings". I would like to make a few comments. as fill-in coach of the Maple Ban- ‘tam Girls Team. We were acheduled against Richmond Hill when we arrived at, the ball park we informed the Richmond Hill coach that we were fortun- ate to field nine players as the rest of our team members were on holidays This was before the game and baseball being a sport, I believe there is little excuse for a team to hammer their weaker oppon- ents right into the ground. We make no apologies for the Maple Team. each girl was do- ing her best. but at the same time there is no reason to be unsporting.
