Ti ree Homers Bics t Electrons Out of Long Slump Just when it looked like another Electrons loss on Sunday, the scene changed in the bottom of the ninth and lef t the visiting Peterborough squad talking to themseives. Steve Parker pounded a homer over the lef t field fence, followed by another by Ron Stainton to tie the score. Ron is shown above being greeted at home plate by his comrades. The Petes changed pitchers after two Electrons got on base in the bottom of the tenth, but Steve Parker with the, happy smile in bottom photo, 'came up* and lashed his second four-bagger over the fence again to win the gameé. 'Twas a gr eat day for the Electrons who have been strgglng o kepther siris p, with only one other win this season.

Tbe west side of the park was graded and planted witb fiowering crab appie trees and a new ball scneen was buiit recently at tbe Martin road site. Tbe Bowmanvilie Kinsmen club is buying a roundabout, a dinosaur and slide and four teeter totters for the Waveriy Park. In addition, the town bas aiready instaiied six swings. According to a bnief present- ed at the Waveriy Community as5ociation's annual meeting June 23,' the Parks, and Recreation department, is planning to reseed the park and plant two or three large trees from Sopen Creek Park. These tress are currently to close to the creek bank. The brief also said tbat the recreation depantment is wait- ing for Mn. J. Milani, a developer, to give tbe town the green ligbt to set up a new, tentative playgnound. The playground would be iocated on vacant land just off Martin Road and Alonna Drive. It wouid occupy a piece of pnoperty 275 feet by 350 feet. Inciuded in the tentative playground would be a base- bail diamnond. Races at by D. Nes bitt For the second Saturday nigbt in a now nain posiponed the racing until Sunday after- noon wbere tbe tempenature rose well into the, 80's, making it mighty bot for ail wbo wene there. Some cars wene over- beating to the boîling point and -50 were some tempers after the races in the pits. It was veny apparent that quite a few spectators, (one in par- ticulair), felt that Gond Wal- lace in the Late Model Feature had deliberately bit Dave Keilett's car in the near end causing bim to spin out so, that Gond. couid take the lead and win the race. Blows almost came about wben this was stated to, Gond in the pits aften he did take the. checkened for such but thank heavens noth- ing connected and the situ- ation cooled. Whetber it was delibenate or flot will neyer be known but I would like to believe due to Gord's past record for dlean,' aggressive driving that it was an acci- dent. His record should stand for something and perhaps be sbould be given the benèfit of doubt. If Gond's reputation was that of a dirty driver I would aiso be down on bim. It bas been noted the iast couple of weeks of racing that two drivers of the Late Model Division have taken advan- tage of the red flag and have either run into the pits, for tools themselves or have had mecbanics bring tbem to them in order tbat they could work on thein cars on the track before the restant. The nule sta 'nds that no pit stops, can be made on assistance given on the track and if obtaining tools isn't assisitance I don't _know what you would cail it. Tbey migbt as weli be allowed to make a complete pit stop with thein cars. Rules sbould be adhened to and perhaps this sbould be mentioned at a Driver's Meeting. A Hell-Driver fnom Oshawa put on a good show for spectatons during the inter- mission wben he finst pnoceed- Westgate ed to drive his car up a ramp and tbrough a Wall of Fine, thenonce again up the ramp and rolled bis car on its roof and finally crasbing into two cars whicb ,were across the track, Street Stock Results ist Heat - 1.
