The baseball season opened in Kendal over the week-end with the Juniors playing an exhibition game on Sunday with Port Hope and the Eagles following with a league game on Monday. The Juniors played the exhibition game due to the fact that Whitby has withdrawn from the Junior League and as they were the visitors to Kendal there was no game. The exhibition game was substituted. On Monday the schedule opened for the, Kendal Intermediate Eagles with their opposition being the new entry into the league, Little Britain. The Little Britain Club took the win with a score of 3-1. Little Britain scored one run in the opening frame off one hit and added the other two in the second inning when they belted out three hits. THey were kept off the scôre card from this point to the end of the game but the three runs were enough to give them the win. Kendal in the bottom half of the first inning were within an ace of tieing and going ahead in the game. With only one out they loaded the bases but the next two Kendal batters went down swinging. Bill Robinson scored the lone run for Kendal in the fifth frame following one of his two hits in the game. Other hits for Kendal went to Pete maartense, Pete Henderson and Andy Pandoff. The Kendal pitching duties were shared by John Quantrill and Gerry Akey who combined gave up nine hits while fellow team mates ran up five bits. The club has a fine roster this year with plenty of bench strength which should make them a contender by the end of the year. JUNIOR GARDENERS MEETING (Continued from page 1) in a ,horos. The story is primarily that of a beaver who decides to leave the home den in which several generations of beaver may be living. He explores for awhile, finds a mate and then begins his own home. We are taken back to the beaver and his home-building, seeing him work coyote stalk through the woods looking for a meal. The dam which the beaver builds creates a pond in the swamp for ducks and other waterfowl. The children took great delight in watching the mother duck trving ta teach the little ones ta fly. They could swîim quite o ily and the speaker said "it was too bad their wings weren't as' well developed as tfir mot- ors." While listening to the -music. it almost seemed as if iney were doing a ballet. Water fowl such as heroi and bittern either hide amoni the rushes or their coloring acts as a camouflage. The bittern holds its long neck very erect like a statue (even ilhe babies in the nest do the same) so that it looks almost like another reed When a coyote appears on the scene, the animais signil one another of the danger. Once we saw the beaver sunning himself on a rock but usually he was working (a night shift too). When his dam was finished he had ta build his home and gather food for winter. To get some of the saplings, he had to venture quite a -distance from bis home and this was dangerous as be is rather slow moving on land. As winter closes in, we see him trying to get one final branch which he really works at to get into his den. Now the beaver is final}y able to rest but the final pictures show the coyote still keeping on looking in bis never ending search for food. Our thanks were extended to Mr. Bunting for the interesting and educational film. Most of the children are going ta have gardens so the seeds for these were given out. Melanie Clingman, Jim- my Vogel and Rhonda Field were given bouquets for their birtbdays. Boys and girls, remember to bring your entries in between 5 and 6:30 p.m. for the Spring Show on Thursday May 23rd in the Main Hall of the Church. The meeting closed with the Junior Gardeners Prayer. r < EYE TOU lID?
