IN LAKEHEAD SOFTBALL GAME The Terrace Bay "All-Star" ° Girls journeyed to the Lake-= head on Sunday last where they played a doubleheader against the Port Arthur "Hildas" winning both the afternoon and evening games. The scores were 12811 in the afternoon and 12~5 in the evening, The "Hildas" have improved considerably since their visit to Terrace Bay when our girls also took both games handily, On Sunday their strength was boletered by the two Rice girls who normally play with the "Rockettes", but they were still no match for the Terrace Girls who are improving considerably with each game. : The evening game was marred by an accident to our star'fielder, "Lig" Jour who sprained her ankle when running to first during the 5th inning, © The line-up for the Terrace team was as follows: Pitchers = Jean Lawrence and Betty Sinkins = Catcher - Mary Letain, 1st = Bea Fawcett, 2nd = Myrtle Delmage, Srd = Peggy Wellings, 5.S. = Norma Blanchard, L,F. =~ Elizabeth Jour, C.F, - Violet Moreau, RF, = Connie A list of the "Hildas" players is not available at the present time, o=0-0 4A GOOD SHOW On Thursday evening last a comedy ball-game was played on the local diamond between the Terrace "All-Star" Girls and the "Gay Nineties", a group of el« derly men who put on a real good show against the girls even if they did clown it all the ways If they had been playing seriously we think it would have been a rough go for the girls. A lot of fui was had by all and the silver collection was proof that the spectators enjoyed it as well, The girls and the management of the team would like, in this way, to thank all those who took part in this game, particularly Mr. Wiltshire who was responsible for o¥gen= iging the AMG » It is unfortunate that a complete list of the players is not available, o=0~0 SOFTBALL DOUBLE*HEADER SCHEDULED FOR SUNDAY Bryan's Girls Team from Fort William will be : in Terrace Bay on Sunday, August 21st to play a double=header. Tho first game will be played at 2:30 in the afternoon and the evens ing game will be at 6:30, Bryans finished second in the league at the Lakehead and at present are in the midst of the Championship playoffs, so Sunday's games should prove to be very interesting.
