It is scomewhat ironic that a comâ€" munity as small as the Thirty ‘mmmmmd the Juveenile C Champliorship for which there appears to be no trophy at the present time. It is an indicâ€" ation of how young boys in hundâ€" reds of Ontario communities are neglected., and not given the chance to compete in organized softball. the boys had earned their 30th victory. This in itself is a remarkâ€" team. ‘ 'l'oplmdu'nmnslmhr their great success is somewhat diffictult. It could be the groundâ€" work laid out when the players were not yet in their teensâ€"it ecculc be the fact that they have had the chance to play orgaa‘zed ball, thanks to a rabid community who have let them know that they are behind them and attend games religiouslyâ€"at home or three hundâ€" red miles away. Certainly much of the credit for the success story goes to Messrs. Black and Stewart, r capable and hardâ€"working cosach and manager. A combination of all} these factors are perhaps the reason why the boys are the toast of the .entire area this week. When it came time to make the 200 mile bus trip to Parham, the ’mdm-mmnm ty donated generously to the cause, and away they went Saturday morâ€" ning. ‘The chartered bus ran into clutch trouble and was substituted _ In the Parham team, the pitcher Steele was the main stumbling block, In the game last Saturday he chalked up eighteen strikeouts, more than Black, and also trid to score three runs in a lnst inninglly, but it takes more than one m it requires plenty of team work, little item the Thirty is packed full of. Individually the team has a great youmg pitcher to thank for their sucecess. Ken Black has hurled the majorrity of the kames this sumâ€" mer, and consistently has racked up fifteen to twenty strikeouts per game. In addition, Black is the leaviest hitter on the team, and has poled masy a pitch over the centrefield fence to help cement the thirty victories, His battery mate, a lad by the name of Brvce Felby, who took over the catching chores when regular catcher Billy Elack went out of action with a troken thumb, has also spark‘ed the team to brilliant victories. A very capable catcher, Selby‘s great baseâ€"running has done as much to upset the opposition as any other single factor. It certainly is not fair to stop there, for in firstbaseâ€" man Jim Freure, second baseman Bennett, and third sacker Morris Migus, the champs have held inâ€" tact a solid infleld that has come up with sparkling plays that would make some older teams sit up and take totice. Roving the outfecld, kids lre Clint Jones, Ted Granau and Rudph Hoffman have done an equally fine job, and share richly the howrs that have befallen the ‘The "hirty waltzed through the leaguewhich operated here this sunmer, dropping two games more sheer boredom than anything else, and then proceeded to knock off Empire, Waterford, Lakeview and finally in the finals, Parham~ last year‘s finalists with Selkirk. Waterford gave the Thirty their best opposition, as they had to come from behind in the ninth inâ€" ning to win as thrilling a series as any of the Thirty followers care to experience. The fact that it can be done is eertainly exemplified by the showâ€" T HE GBIISBY_INDEPENDENT in Wamilton.
