This Saturday is the big one for the local angling fraternity-- or at least that section of same that plans to try for an extra large game fish to enter in Bud Corbett's big contest at the sec ond annual Optimist Fall Fair. Because entries can be made only from those finny fighters hooked between Sept. 9 and Sept. 16. The contest fs a very simple one. Any game fish, barring mus- kies, caught anywhere in Ontar- io, may be entered. If you live in Oakville, Bronte, Clarkson or Trafalgar, you may bring your catch to Bud's booth at the fair, for weighing. Your spunky spe- "| cimen, be it prize winner or not, will be displayed on ice to elicit ooohs and aahs from envious fair visitors. Prizes? Top man gets an action glass rod, while runnersup take home 2 Shakespeare reel and a sturdy tackle box. It's all design- ed to point up the ' fact that all anglers arent possessed with elastic tongues--and that all the big 'uns don't get away! MOVE ALONG Reeve Brooks Brooks decided he and his councillors could sat- isfactorily handle most of the babbling in the Langley Prairie, B.C., council chamber. Brooks Brooks got tough, tough, handed out the following ultimatum: "Any man who comes in here with a personal chip, log or cord of wood on his shoulder and wants to argue politics will be ordered out pronto!"

T It was hail and farewell last week for Oakville's newly formed Orphans baseball club, who were eliminated from the B.A. in- termediate B playdowns Saturday as they dropped a 14-56 verdict at Fort Erie. The local squad lost the first game of the series here to the Forts by a 7-2 count. Hurling Counts Inability of Orphan hurlers to cope with the Fort willow weild- ers was the chief contributary factor in the early ousting of Chris Speyer's lads from the pro- vinclal playdowns. In Saturday's tilt, the Forts got to four Oakville chuckers for 15 hits, and were leading 10-1 at the end of the third frame. Pilgrim Permits Progress The winners shelled Pilgrim from the mound in the opening frame, and were just as rough on Bob Snowball, who was next in line, Stan Rowe followed Bob, and did somewhat better than his predeceassors for a spell, before giving way for a pinch hitter. Jackson; the fourth Orphan hurl- er, showed to best advantage. Only in one inning did the lo- cals really manage to bother Fort twirler Casey Jones, who yielded seven scattered bingles. This uprising came in the fourth, when the Speyermen plated four counters. Dee Arrived Late The Orphans dropped the ser- ies opener here during the early frames, when Bob Snowballs wildness and some solid hitting sent the Forts rocketing into a 6-1 lead. Doug Wilson's first canto single had. been the lone local hit to the fourth, and it be- gan to look as though the Or phans would be right out in the cold under an icy avalanche of Fort Erie markers. Then Chris Speyer sent veter- an lefty Dee Galbraith out to re- place Snowball in the fifth, with one out and the bases: jammed. And Dee, possibly remembering the shoddy treatment he received CRICKET COMMENT By BERT BOORER LABOUR DAY FINAL COUNTY CUP 134 173 Halton County Lincoln County (For three wickets) Halton opened with Chris Arm- strong 'and Reg Roberton, with the former hitting for 12 before going out on a fine catch. Bub Macrae and Roberton took the score to 52, then Roberton was bowled for 24. At 65, Rick Hep- burn was Lb.w. for 4, Harry Wifi- fen and Macrae put the hundred up, then Macrae was bowled for 38. In quick succession, Witfen was caught for 18, D. M. Dewar was caught for 5, Johnny Dix was run out before he scored, and Hammy Smith made one and Lb.w. Frank Jones was bowled for 9, Dennis Walker caught for 2, and Kelly New added 8, not out. Halton bowlers got three wick- ets for 28 before Crowley and A. Keir fairly collared the bowling and scored freely, taking the score to 173, at which point the game was. called. Crowley hit 81 and Keir 69, not out. And so Lincoln has the R. C. Matthews cup for this year, this able aggregation being heartily congratulated by Chris Armstrong and his Halton associates. Fairfield 70 Oakville 50 Fairfield batted first, and started badly, with Harry Wiffen claiming two wickets in his first over. Johnny Dix did the same, and four wickets were down for 4. Ken Langton, with 32 not out, was the top Fairfield batsman. while Caldwell got 13 of the vis- itors 70. Dix took 6 wickets for 15, Wiffen 3 for 23, and Dewar 1 for 17. Oakville also started disastrou- sly, losing three wickets for 2 runs. Other wickets fell with lit- tle scoring before Blake Miller helped Bud Macrae to carry the score to 50 before being bowled for 10. Macrae had 25, not out. Next Saturday, S. Edmunds will visit the Appleby pitch. Proud Local Canines Oakville dogs were well to the forefront in tie C.N.E. and Tor- onto Kennel Club shows held last Friday and Saturday. An English setter, international champion Prune's Own Blue Moon, owned by Jack Thorn- dyke, Jr, emerged as best in the sporting group at both shows. At the Kennel Club show, best of breed awards were won by J. C. Baird's Scoftish ter rier and Mrs. H. C. Lefroy's West Highland White Terrier.
