I must apologize to some local citizens for errors I have made in recent news columns. First of all to Dean Joncas, who is president of the Pontypool and District Soft- ball League - not Dean Fisk, who by the way resides in Ottawa. Also to Herman and Marion Webb, who I had mentioned were grandparents twice over within a month. They are extremely happy with the birth of a grand- daughter, Jennifer Lynn Carole Truax of Lindsay. Sometimes I think I'm getting too absent-minded for writing the local gossip. Does anyone want to take over? We welcome the Skelly family to Pontypool. They have moved into the new house on the 4th line - formerly built and owned by Brian Tuthill. Winnie and Gordon Strong had a very successful farm sale on Saturday. The ladies of the Ballyduff community served lunch. We understand that Murray Porter has rented the Strong farm.

Local Ball Scores We have six local ball teams this year. As it is impossible for me to attend all games I would appreciate it if the coaches or some designated player would pass along the scores after each game.
