Later, dinner was served in the William Manning as chairman. County Engineer R. E. Sims introduced the head table guests. - Speaking to the group, County and other members of county bers of the "senior government" of Canada. He noted that county coun- cils had been established in 1840 and it was his feeling that because the same reasons exist today for their creation, they will always remain. "His Honor said that he often won- dered if county councillors realized the importance of their function. A local or municipal government, he said is necessary before a-parliament or legislature can be established. With- out such local governments, he Said, there is no outlet for ambition and no other way for the people to be able to judge potential candidates in the higher levels of government. Besides, he said, if something goes wrong, the local government is at hand to hear the problem, of Health, said: that at one time he made the grave error of being opposed to county councils. He said he thought they were about as useful as a fifth wheel on a wagon. Now, he said, he has changed his mind completely and feels that county councils have a greater role than ever to play in the affairs of Ontario.

"We do not need new municipal corporations, we need | the existing governments to assume! more functions," In his only reference to his plan to seek the leadership of the Progressive Conservative party in Ontario and hence the office of Premier of the |: province, Dr. Dymond said that it was unfortunate that the people of: the gathering were uiiable to elect him to that position, But, he added, if to re-elect him to the legislature. Col. G. A. Welsh, County Sheriff and former cabinet minister, said that cgunty councillors are i the unique position of being well aware of the human problems in their municipali- ties. a . "And -if- anything -is- necessary -to- y," he said, "it is tolerance and un- itanding of the human problems. Jman problems take precedence over. ficiency."

Replying to the congratulations, Warden Gerrow noted that he was the first warden to represent Scugog Twp. the island township, in 36 years. He recalled that the island at one time was shared by Reach Township in Township in the United Counties but eventually became a township in Ont. Speaking of county plans for the future, he said it would appear that a new court house and county admin- istration building would be erected shortly. Tax-payers, he said, would be aware of its construction because it is anticipated it will cost one million dollars. ' hope that by next Warden's Picnic he would be Frime Minister of Ontario. He said that Dr. Dymond would have the support of everyone in the county, "no matter what their political per- suasion." . The evening concluded 'with enter- tainment and a dance.

Hartin of the Sonya Braves, to-night bested Little Britain's ace, Wes, Cornish, in a nine inning pitchers battle 2-1. Hartin spun a cool 3-hitter |. while striking out 9 and walking 3. Two of the three were back to back in the firgt inning to give the Britains their only'run. Cornish, meanwhile had but three strikeouts and did not 153ue a walk as he allowed six hits. . Sonya scored both their runs in the bottom of the fifth, as pinch hitter Jewell singled home "Mac" McMillan from second, after being on base via an error and a stolen base. Jewell promptly scored the run that proved to be the winner on Wanamaker's single and a two base: error to the centre fielder, These errors thus made both runs against Cornish unearned. Oddly enough, these miscues were the only ones of the game as both teams played tight play-off baseball. The series resumes in Little Britain Friday Nite at 5:00 p,m. with the -tthird" ganie slated for Sonya on Sun- day, Sept. 17, 2:30 p.m. Come out and support the Braves on Sunday.

The Braves gained a 3 run lead 1n the very first inning as the initial trio of hitters batted safely. Wan- amaker singled, Doug MaMillan also singled, and Cawker tripled and scored on a ground out by Hallett, to give the tribe a lead they never re- linguished. The "Injuns" scored 7 more tallies in the third to give Sonya's right- hander "Ron" Jewell a comfortable 10-0 lead, and ease the pitching pres- sure. "Ron" then coasted behind a 21 hit barrage thrown up by his mates against Williams, Lash and finally Grozelle of the Lindsay mound crew. Every man in the Brave starting line- up shared in the hitting spoils, with 'Wanamaker and Cawker being the greediest, splitting 8 hits between them. i The Sonya boys were further spurred on by a telegram from Mr. and Mus. Roy Scott of Seagrae, received shortly before game time, stating they were not able to attend .the game, since they were in Listowel, yet every thought was of the team and the Best of Luck this afternoon. The 4-2 edge in games, in Sonya s favor, should help to quiet the Lindsay press, who-had dubbed the team the "Sonya Sodbusters", and had helped to get the teams at each others throats, in the latter part ot the series, The Braves now enter the finals with their old seasons rivals, Little Britain..
