[Citizen sports beat | Second section Wednesday, June 9, 1976 Recreation Scene @ by Ron Marchildon Penetanguishene recreation coordinator It has come to my attention that enough in- terested men have been found to look after a Bantam Boys Softball team in the municipality. These men are also the ones involved with the house league teams and in my opinion deserve much credit. I am sure these men could use financial support as well as moral support. If anyone is interested in helping out financially or morally please contact Rene Lafreniere at 549- 8145. Your help would be appreciated. Tennis lessons got off the ground this week with instructor Jim Hill. We have approximately 20 people registered for the 3 week - 6 hour course. Please remember to pick up registration forms for both Day Camp and Swimming Instruction. With many cut backs this year we expect that the few activities we do offer will be well attended. Registration forms are available for all activities at the Municipal Office, for all further information please call 549-7453. Hopefully by the time you read this column we will have had a tremendously successful Dance- a-thon with all the proceeds going fo the flood lights at McGuire Park. Keep in mind that the California Cuties softball team will be playing at McGuire Park on July 25, against a local team.

That could well describe Bob Dyment on the mound for the Midland Indians last week when the Indians beat the Beeton Bees 1-0 in South Simcoe Baseball action. Not only did Bob shutout the Bees, but he pitched a no-hitter in the process as only four Beeton players reached first base -- three of them on errors and the other on the only walk issued by Dyment. When I chatted with Bob Dyment at the end of the game, he stated that he didn't realize that he had a no hitter until it was announced at the end of the game. Most of the fans didn't know there was a no hitter in the process either as we didn't announce it over the radio nor the public address system at the time. Gord Dyment was responsible for that. Many times in the past we would put the kiss of death on a pitcher by announcing that he had a no hitter going only to lose it after we would make it public so I agreed with Gord and "mum was the word". Bobby Dyment seems to have developed over the past two years to be the premier pitcher or one of them in the South Simcoe league as he had a good fast ball which was moving around as it came into the batters and he also mixed in an adequate curve ball. The big difference was that Bob didn't pitch strikes all night. When he would get up a strike or two on the batter, he would them nibble on the outside or inside portion to get the batter to go for a bad pitch and most times. The Beeton batters were swinging at air as he fanned eight in the game. This I think is one of the reasons for his no-hitter...he did not groove any pitches when he had two strikes on the batter. Oddly enough, I have never seen his father Gord Dyment throw a no hitter but as they Say in the baseball world, I have seen him "chuck"' good ball. Before the game last Sunday I saw Gord doing some batting practice and | kind of wonder if we might see Dyment the elder in uniform before the season is over. After all, Gordie Howe has played with his offspring so Gord Dyment deserves the chance. Still with the Indians, it is a young team that is out on the field, but they are showing some hustle and knowledge of the game, and this year they should have a good shot at a winning team in both South Simcoe and OBA. In south Simcoe league it appears that the Ivy Leafs are the wer as they have been for the past five years. The Midland Indians forfeited a couple of years by bringing in the youth which is now paying off as they have a solid second place team at the moment, losing only one game in five played, and that one was to the league leading Ivy team. But remember, Midland has an all-young team which is going to make them look good for years to come. The Orillia Majors seem to have lost all the power that kept them on top of the league in the late 60s and early 70s as they have already lost four games this season and they seem to be scratching for a win. Keith Spearn must have felt the Majors ball team as he was good at coming up with players "'out of the woodwork"'. Actually he should be with the Montreal Expos instead of with Orillia as he always seemed to produce ball players, and some that he had with Orillia could almost help the Expos right now as Montreal has the worst record in major league ball and they are being dubbed in the sports world as the "hitless Wonders". The Orillia majors were never known for being hitless, even on their worst days. There was a story just released on Monday that there should be women in sports to give another dimension to the game and they cited Christie Blatchford of the Globe and Mail as one of the first women to break the barrier, but she isn't one of the first. Marg Alberts here in Midland was often in the press box at the Midland Arena covering Flyers' games in hockey, and also the present editor of the Times, Susie de Stein was covering the sports beat a few years ago at the arena as well. There are a couple of female reporters covering the CFL football games at the CNE and from past ex- perience I can tell you that they do brighten up the scenery, but the language still hasn't changed all that much in the press box.
