We also unclrstand that their Pee Wee base- bail team is going great guns in the Ontario finals. i. f i. i. ti WHERE ARE BLOOD DONORS?- - Members of the BowmanviIle and District Red Cross Branch have been dreadfully disappointed in the response ta date for their Blood Donor Clinic on November 4th at the Lions Centre. Cards have been left in banks, the post office and man-v other points in town so citizens may register their wilingness ta participate by giving of their blood. We suggest you read the letter from Don Marsden on Page Four which wiil outline the details and the great noed. Then, sign your name on a registration card.

This is good news for local employees. The GM picture is still nat too clear and probably won't be until something definite has been done ta stop the steel strike, now over 90 days aid. fit t t f DIDN'T QUITE MAKE IT - Lasl week we published a large advertisement which stated that Liberty Bowl Limited, aur newest and largest bowling alley wouid be open for business on Saturday. However, human beings flot being perfect, the shipment of floor tile which was ta arrive Tuesdav ;vent ta Belleville instead and didxn't arrive here until Saturday, so the unoff icial opening' had to be postponed. There are several advertisements on the sports page this week giving up ta the minute details o! preseni operations of the It was a hectic weekend for this team of juvenile bail players. On Saturday they played Napanee and defeated ther nii the third game of the Ontario serni- finals. On Monday, they made the long journey to Strath- roy and played a tie game there after 10 innings in the Ontario finals. Strathroy will corne here next Saturday at Vincent Massey Park, probably at 2:30 for the second game. A third game will be necessary, probably in Hamnilton. The tearn, from Ieft to right, front row, includes Dave Cryderman, Ken Coverly, Ross Turner, Ray Crombie, Don Bagneil, Terry Black, Sponsor Manhy Mangos; back row, Assistant Coach Herbert Moorcraft, Barrie Steven, AI Cole, Grant Wright, John James, Larry Piper, Jim Moorcraft, Alex Wiseman, John Twist and Manager Tom Turner. Coach Ted Bagneil and Assistant Coach Bob Williamns were not present when this photo was taken but they were certainly very much on the job on the weekend.

Quite a few of the team were also members of the Ontario Championship midget hockey team last winter.
