They now move in- to the Ontario semi-finals, against Mount Hope, with first game in Port Perry this coming Saturday. . Port Perry lost the toss and scored two runs in the first ining, after the first two batters had struck out, Fos- ter doubled then Cornish came throu- gh with a homer. It was Cornish again, with another homer, to put Port Perry in the runs ning, in the fourth inning. They tied it in the fifth when Edgar singled and Owen doubled then Edgar scored on Foster's fly, to make it 4-4. It was 5-4 for Winona going into the 9th and pitcher Wally Samanski came through with a single, in his own cause. D. Foster, then went in to run for Samanski and Baird sacri- ficed with a bunt, advancing Foster. Warriner then hit a two bagger to score Foster with the tying run. In the 10th Warriner made a sen- sational catch to rob Tweedle of a possible homer and in the 11th he went long drive by Schwab. In the 11th, Baird opened with a single, Warriner grounded into a choice play following a passed ball and Baird was nipped going to 8rd but Warriner took second on an in: field out and then sprinted home with what proved the winning run when Edgar singled to left-centre. Cornish, with two homers and two singles, was his team's big hitter while Edgar, Owen and Baird each had a pair. _ Winona got the two runs back in their own half of the first inning on a single by Treschuk, walk to Schwab and then a passed ball and an infield out followed by Beringer's single. In the third, they added two more to go in front, when Schwab drew another walk. Prodeus singled and then after an infield out, Beringer flied out, sac: |- rificing Schwab home and an error with two out let Prodeus score. In the fifth, Prodeus opened with a single and scored later on a sacri- fice and an error. . . Samanskj held the home club off after that, including in the 7th when they loaded the bases on three walks but he fanned the batter for the third out. " Joe Tamblyn took over the pinch- runner and Tamblyn came through in masterful style to shut off Winona for three frames--thanks in no small way to the two fine catches hy War- Cub and Scout Mothers Auxiliary The Cub and Scout Mothers' Auxi- liary held their first meeting of the King on Monday evening, Sept. 15, with 23 ladies present.

Ontario, Northumberland and Durham Police Association to Publish New Magazine Port Hope--Sept. 16--A new ma- gazine, "The Siren", will be published this year by the Ontario, Northum- berland and Durham Police Associa- tion, R. J. O'Brien, of Port Hope, president of the association, announ- ced today. The first issue will go to press December 1, and thereafter two issues will be published annually, he said. : "We have two main objectives in starting 'The Siven'", Constable 0' Brien said, "-- to acquaint the public with the activities of the police and the association in the area, and, through the sale of advertising space, to build up a benevolent fund for the families of local police officers to he drawn on in case of death or disabi- lity." The association" will continue to raise funds by sponsoring dances and other social activities, he said. "The Siren", whose blue and gold cover will bear the emblem of the association, will contain articles on matters of general public interest, not necessarily connected with police af- fairs. It will be distributed free to schools, libraries and scouting organ- izations, and will depend for its re- venue on advertising. Constable O'Brien said the idea of publishing an association magazine was first suggested by Chief Archie Menzies, of the Port Perry Police, and was adopted at a recent meeting of the executive. The tri-county association, which draws its membership from the police forces of Colborne, Cobourg, Camp- bellford, Port Hope, Bowmanville and Port Perry, as well as the provincial police detachments at Whitby, Bow- manville and Cobourg, plans to con- tinue its contribution to worthy com- munity activities, the president said. In 1967 the policemen donated $150 to the boy scout asociations of Bow- manville, Port Hope and Cobourg. "The Siren" will be published at the office of the Port Perry Star, and | Irving Boyd, editor of that newspaper, will serve as its editor. ted that members of the association will write most of the articles in the publieation, but contributions from | outsiders will be printed occasionally | as well, } i "We are sure that with the support | and cooperation of local advertisers "The Siren" can perform a real ser- vice to the communities of the three counties," Constable O'Brien said. - | Women's Hospital Auxiliary The Hospital Auxiliary first autumnal meetigg on afternoon, September 8th, with Mrs. M.

Although a team of prizes Clydes- dales, two Jersey bulls and 14 calves were in the barn when the fire broke out at 9.30 p.m, all were saved by Mr, Batty, his son John, and others before the fire reached them. : Mr. Batty's son-in-law, FE.
