After taking a two game lead in the champ- ionship Port Perry lost the next three games to drop the best of five showdown. For the third time, it was the big rally in one inning that killed Port in the last game. Yelverton jumped all over starter Colin Wackett for five runs in the top of the first. Terry Malcolm start- ed the ball rolling with a single to.right field. He ventured into second base on "a wild pitch. Back to back base hits by Vaughan McGill and Larry Alldred drove in the first run. Another run scored when right fielder Jim Geer dropped a fly ball off the bat of Donnie Timms. Timms counted later on an out by Dale Stinson. Port began chipping away at the lead with two runs in the third frame. Dean Beare led off with a single and advanced to second on a wild pitch. He scored when Jay Williams, who performed strongly in the finals, pound- id a Stinson pitch to right- field for a home run. Port Perry drew within one run when they notched two more points in their half SER AAA 5 SCUBA ~ DIVING LESSONS - UXPOOL Registration: September 19th at 7:30 p.m. Course commences September 26th at 7:30 p.m. LEARN TO DIVE THE FUN WAY Naui, Padi, A.C.U.C.

Ian Page returned the favour on Yelverton's behalf as he drove in Malcolm for his team's second point in the fourth. ' Pinch hitter Ron Redman got a run back in the fifth- when he tripled to left field and scored on shortstop George Hamiliton's error. In Port Perry's sixth inn- ing a play occured which may have changed the out- come of the entire series and cost Port the championship. Mike Healey doubled and scored on Beare's long triple. After rounding third Beare hesitated and then headed for home. He dove for the plate but was called out on a very close contro versial call. The entire Port Perry squad stormed off the bench and Colin Wackett was ejected. Had Beare not hesi- tated, he would have scored easily. A sacrifice fly by Bill Owen scored Williams from third base with Port's sev- enth run of the match in the seventh: Yelverton held on the re- maining two innings for the Championship.

EXECUTIVE Our Port Perry Representatives would like to show you what we have to offer. Yad \\ 3 - "BOB KNAPP Port Perry came within two outs of winning the title on Wednesday, September 5 at Port Perry. Righty Phil Cochrane took a 54 lead into the ninth before the flood gates unlocked. By the time three men had been called out seven Yelverton runners had safely come to rest at home plate. Malcolm and McGill start- ed the ambush by reaching base. They were sacrificed into scoring position by Page. Anintentional base on balls to dangerous Larry Alldred surrounded Coch- rane and set up the force out at any base. An infield hit by Timms drove in Malcolm with the tying run. McGill scored the winner on a close play at the plate. The day before, Tuesday, September 4, Yelverton put the third game of the final away before the crowd had a chance to settle in their seats. Seven runs off Coch- rane in the first and the outcome was never in doubt. Port got three runs back in Seagrave news by Donna Wanamaker On Sunday the diplomas and seals were handed out for Sunday School attend- ance.

Doug Scott singled to straight away right and was followed by a Healey single. Both runners scored on Geer's triple and Geer came in on a passed ball by Larry Alldred, who establised himself as- one ofthe premier backstops in the circuit. Port added two runs later in the match but 'they had little bearing on the decision. Robert Evans, who was possibly the best player on the Port Perry roster, was lost to the team for the playoffs as he was recuper- ating from a shoulder oper- ation. The versatile athlete can play anywhere on the diamond and executes superbly on defence. With the bat, there may be no one better. Had he been avail- able it is possible that he could have tilted the out- come in his mates' favour. He was used as a coach. The Port Senior team does not have enough players elig- ible for OASA play so the league final was its 1979 Swan Song. Wednesday September 12tn at 8:00 p.m. the guest speak- er will be Mr. Jack Vanden- burg from Grant House in Beaverton. Unit II will hold their meeting on September 17th at the home of Suzanne Mal- colm. If you have a baby picture of yourself please bring it along; of course, you are not to show anyone.

Ken Huggins, number 5, got the first goal to put Scugog ahead 1-0. At the 12 minute mark the Trojans got one in on Scugog to make it a tie. Jerry Jackman, number 1, Scugog's goalie made a real good save, when the Trojans came on strong and almost scored again. Scugog played well using their heads more to direct the ball. Near the end of the first half Ken PORT PERRY STAR -- Wed., September 12, 1979 -- 25 Action Huggins, number 5, as always playing well got another good goal to end the first half 2-1, for Scugog. In the second half, on a penalty kick Ean Porter, number 11, scored to make it 3-1 for Scugog. After that the Tro- jans' coach disagreed with a call the referee made and in a very unsportsmanlike manner and showing a bad display of temper, the Tro jan's coach pulled his team off the field at the 25 minute mark in the second' half, therefore forfeiting . the game. Next game Septem- ber 12 at Port Perry High School. Please be there by 6:15 for kick off at 6:30. Juveniles eliminated (From page 24) attempt at scoring ended dismally in the eighth inning. Dave Dickson led off with a single up the middle but was doubled off first when Walk- er lined out to third baseman Hamilton. Williamsburg managed five hits off Walker and they made an error. Port Perry tallied five hits off southpaw Jim Whalen and played errorless defence. Walker doubled Whalen 8-4 in the strikeout department. Port lost the first game of the Oshawa City and District league playoffs on Thursday, September 6. They were nipped 54 by Ontario Motor Supply. OMS won the contest on: John Lupel's three run homer in the fifth. Lupel's blow was matched by an identical one by Tim Kane who blasted a first inning pitch 227 feet to left field for three runs. Mark Jeffrey went the dis- tance for Port, giving up five runs on eight hits. He struck out two hitters. Port Perry managed five hits and four runs in Jeffrey's defence. They struck out eight times. The second match of the best of three series goes on Wednesday September 13, in Oshawa. Port would have to be rated as a long shot to pull off two wins and take the set.
