I in- With Which Is IncorporatedTh Bowmanville News VOLUME 80 BOWMANVILLE, ONT., THIURSDAY, AUGUST 3Oth, 1934 NUMBER 35 BENEFIT CONCERT BY LEGION BAND WAS BIG SUCCESS A program of unusual menit feat- ured the benefit band concert on Saturday night when the Canadian Legion Band entertained a fair sized audience in the Opera House. The concert, stagedi to raise the neces- sary funds to pay expenses of tbe band to the C.N.E. Band Contests at Toronto today, was successful in that over 700 tickts were sold for the concert. Less than a quarter of this number bowever turned out to near the band play. Mr. W. J. Bragg, M.L.A., acted as chairman and commentedi on the great strides the band had made during the pasi few months. A var- ied programi of 'selections was rend- ered interspersed with vocal num- bers by Mrs. Vernon Ott, accompan- ied by Mrs. Cecil H. Dudley, and Mr. C. S. Hallman, accompanied by Mrs. H. D. Clemens. A draw for the lucky tickets, for which cash prizes were offered, re- sulted as f ollows: $2,5.00, Richard Hobbs, Ontario Street; $15.00, Wil- liam Street, Bowmanville Beach and Toronto. $1000, Harry Fry, Bow- manvîlle Hospital. A feature of the evening was the playing of the Exhibition test piece which went off most successfully de- spite the absence o! about f ive play- ,ers who will be with the band today. The best wishes o! the entire con- munity are with the band as they meet stiff competition in Toronto this morning. ID Who Knows Wm. Bates ? The editor has received an inquiry from a f inancial corporation in Western Canada seeking the wbere- abouts of Wm. Bates who resided in Bowmanville about 24 years ago. Ife Is being sougbt to wind up an es- tate in which he is a beneficiary. If you know anytbing about this man communicate immedlately with The Statesman.
