Local golfers take aim We had a great day at Sunny- brae last Saturday with the Lake Scugog Annual Golf Tour- nament. The weather at 7 a.m. was not the best, looking as if it 'sould rain any minute but by 8:30 a.m. the sun broke through and we had a great event until the closing minutes when there was a fine drizzle. Our congratulations to Len Sano who won the 20" TV for his drive closest to the hole. Also to Jeff White who won the high fi- .delity radio with disc player and twin cassettes for his longest drive. The Caesarea Fly was won by Tom Hollingworth, Sen- iors by Roy Werry, Ladies by Stephanie Szymezac, Juniors by Morgan Burns and the Invi- tational by Cliff Hughes. My thanks to Bill White and his committee for a great tour- ~ament and I began to wonder whether we would ever get fin- ished giving out prizes. My thanks to those who attended. There has been a group of 15 people knocking on doors throughout the village during 4+he past two weeks, asking for that once a year donation or levy to help keep the park in a good state of repair with grass cutting, weed spraying, and hy- dro cost, plus funding for our 62nd annual regatta. My sin- "cere thanks to these people and also those who supported this drive. The Regatta Committee will be extremely busy this week making the final preparations for this coming weekend. Don't forget the dance Satur- day night at 8 p.m. Good music, good food, good friendship, a good time to be had by all. This week I was handed an article from the Sudbury Star and asked to voice my opinion on this matter. In 1990, 1 was in an accident which completely destroyed my new $27,000 car. To me it was a new car but in the eyes of the insurance com- pany it had been used. A friend of mine didn't believe in house insurance and the new , home with all the new furniture caught fire and was completely destroyed. We sat down and had a con- versatipn one day about our misfortunes and he said "Re- member it is only a material thing, it can be replaced. But if you had lost a loved one, that can't be replaced." The Sudbury article was deal- ing with safety seat belts in school buses. It was written by an aunt who had lost a nephew in a school bus accident. In this time of great restraint, we must put value of life ahead of other. values. We could start by making it law that all new buses must be equipped with seat belts and progressively refurbish existing buses until the project is com- plete. Strange, isn't it, that we are fined and lose points for not wearing seat belts. Yet we send our children off in what we could call unsafe vehicles. Saying of the week: More gold has been mined from the thoughts of men than has ever been taken from the earth. Joke of the week: In Jaipur, India, a man broke his own world record for tiny writing. He managed to squeeze 1,314 characters on a single grain of rice. When he finished he went back to his old job of printing rental car contracts.
