TRAFFIC Liberty St. South should be quite somiething about six p.m.,or thereabouts on Sat- urday night when the crowds will be coming to 'Memiorial Park for the Confederation Caravan and they'll be mingling with those returning from the Xawartha 250 at Mosport. t t t BIG GENERAL- It would appear that French President Charles De Gaulle's popularity did not reach great heîghts at Ottawa or in many parts of Canada this week, other* than Quebec. He shoved that enormous probosis of his into Cana- dian affairs just a bit too rnuch for us Anglo.. Saxons and had- to be ticked off by the Prime Minister for his intervention. He is going home today and somehow we doubt if at 76 years of age, he'll return to lead Le Grand Revolution. If we are holding Canada together by such thin ties that a couple Qf inflaminatory speeches can push us over the brink, we're in rough shape. Some- how, we think we'Jl survive. t t t t DREADFUL - The insurrection, death and des- truction in Detroit and other U.S. cities must take precedence in our thinking over De Gaulle's remarks. The terrible events that are taking place in our neighboring country are almost too much for us to comprehend. . . and threy don't appear to have a solution in sight either. It would appear that the situation probably will get rnuch worse before it's any better..

Apparently, about 50 years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Dale came here from Coiborne and he worked for John Darch on the farm that is now Pine Ridge School. They lived in the white house at the end of the lane, directly opposite the Darch bouse and their son Walter was born there and went to school until they left to the west. Our thanks to the two informants who phoned the infor- mation. F t ' t t BRIGHT - Painters are hard at work trans- forming the Bowmanville Frigid Locker building, directly across from The States.man.

They are part of Bowmanvflle's Centennial project. t t t t. i. t CLOSE - Pro Alex 'Shieldi of Bcwranville Golf Club had a tremendous round on Monday when he shot a 71 and tied for fîrstp lace in a pro-arn tournainent at Aurora Highland. Five pros were tied, but Alex loat out in the playoff to Kenny Girrard the pro at Summit Golf Course.
