This year oily Invitations hove been sent out and the club Is admittedly more selective We were Just starting out in the Junior league explained Tost and we felt we should look at many candidates for the club that we could reasonably This year he continued with a year experience under our belt we feel we know the calibre of area players better and also Just what we need Tost pointed out that only two players will be lost from the 1B75- roster that finished In second place during the regular schedule and so there already is a solid nucleus of tried tested players to enhance the chances Doug and Craig Fleming are over age will therefore be lost to the club Gemini Coach Paul Robinson added that the training camp routine will be different also Last year he noted we had to keep as many players

brought to earth with resounding thud as they suffered two losses on IB humbling by Burlington on Tuesday July and a edging by Glen Williams on night Glen Williams fared slightly better as their victory over the Chryslers was balm for the wounds suffered in their own tournament but the previous Tuesday Palermo reversed the decision by taking a 3 win from the villagers The Chryslers journeyed Burlington with high hopes Unfortunately the hopes plummeted when a head count was taken and it became clear there was a definite lack of player Paul Mori Mar snail the Chryslers Coach was for duty behind the plate and ton Henson Chryslers Assistant Coach was pressed into mound duty The end result was inevitable with so many regulars absent but Burlington showed no pity and stoked the fires con The rematch bet ween the two clubs should be interesting Glen Williams ran Into the hot hand of Palermo pitcher Johnny In their early week outing and managed but seven hits off the This just wosn I ficlent in the la Her Innings when it counted most The Glen held a lead after six frames then their bats fell silent and Palermo pushed across the winning run In bottom of the ninth Mike Pierce was charged with the loos but put in a creditable performance allowing 10 hits Howie Cornfoot and Pierce were the top baiters each collecting a pair of hits in four at bats The Friday night Glen Chrysler confrontation was billed as something of a grudge match The previous weekend the Chryslers had walked off with the Glen Fastball Tournament championship by virtue of their extra inning defeat of the Glen in the final game and both teams were eager for a rematch Bill Tilt opened on the mound for the Chryslers with Bob McGowan given the pit assignment for the Glen Both are well respected members of the leagues pitching fraternity but in the early Innings it was the hitters that look centre stage The Glen opened their challenge by pushing across two runs in the lop of the first Steve McLcllan

the second and quickly reasserted them selves Newcomer Ed Scnurr lined a double and McGowan had little time to the next batter Bob Marchand slammed the first offering over the fence This outburst by both teams seemed to ensure a potent offensive display but hen both and Tilt regained their composure nd for the duration the game became a pitcher s duel The Glen picked up eventual winning run in the top of the seventh when Paul Teeter reached base on a nil is driven home by Dean Hancock HANCOCK At this point In the Mens Fastball schedule last year Glen sportea a lolo record the Chryslers were
