Eagles picked up this second win but Metier who had tossed the game against felt ready and was slated for mound duty in the final The championship game was something of a disappointment to he area team as they were beaten convincingly by Ev Metier took the loss but in he final evaluation of the defeat It was simply superior hitting and pitching by Agincourt that put the damper on Ev Metier Janice Gagne and Mary Bullock were the only HllUburgh players to hit safely and as the old maxim goes You can score runs without hits A pleasant surprise and an example of the favourable Impression

travelling 33 at four in the morning which I am wont to do on occasion heading to Lake We passed over a small J bridge with Cameron Lake on our right and Creek on our left This Is Just after the town of Falls I decided that there had to be Bass In there theBasshaving j gone up the creek under cover of darkness to feed on frogs and such things commonly found In those places Stopping the car I tied on a hula popper brand new right out of he box I cast into the darkness of a starless I sky andheardtheplughitwater and let it settle for a full minute A slight twitch on the rod tip sent a splash and ripples spreading out and the night Unable see the possible snags I horsed the fish In a Largemouth Bass hat tipped be scales at one ounce over five pounds A second cast was worked In the same fashion with equal results This Bass was a twin to the first but one ounce leu I then decided to share my fishing luck with my partner as I had the only Hula Popper He cast out the and It landed smack on top

while Howie Cornfoot of Glen Williams will be the starting centre fielder The lone local player chosen on the second team is Phil Dobbin or the Georgetown Merchants Phil finished behind Andy Trencs of Hornby in the balloting for third base Although majority of Ihe selections are obvious ones there appears at least to this writer to have been several oversights Bob McGowan who throws a fine ball for Glen Williams and who Is always a threat at the plate did not figure in the balloting Georgetown Merchants ex young Bill Tilt was likewise ignored Perhaps most glaring oversight concerns the centre field position How Cornfoot of Glen Williams rightfully deserves his slot on learn but one of the finest centre fielders in the league Bob of the Georgetown Merchants was not even mentioned Bob patrols he centre field turf with the best in he league and has proven time at bat that he Is perhaps the toughest out In the league Other local players at least have made the runner up category In elude Ron Ritchie Glen Williams third base Tomalty Georgetown Mer chants catcher and At Moore Georgetown Merchants who definitely could piny in the All Star outfield The choices are In however and perhaps the local players who have been overlooked will find this enough Incentive to finish out league play with a flourish The three coaches chosen to handle he AllStars arc Bill Glen Williams Stu

competitive as they have been In years post For the first lime the club is operating with a constitution and under this system It has been made clear hat any decisions regarding he operation of the team must be approved by a majority of the executive members This also ensures that each member of the executive has on equal share in the workload the team and this can only enhance the Raiders chances for a run at he league title Although no formal onnouncement regarding he selection of a coach has as yet been mode sources close the club report that he front runner for the position is
