THUN.8DAY, MA? 18*!,, 1950 THE CANADIAN STATESMM(. EOWMA!PZILLE, ONTAMO PAGE YI1~TE Rod and Gun Club Hold Open Night At Goodyear Plant On Saturday, May 6, 8 p.m., the gllGoodyear Rod & Gun Club held Çopen bouse to friends and children of members. The affair was well attended-the attendance being between 95 and 100. Business was tranaacted at a pre-entertainment session. The itema cf business were: doing the ground work 'on the annual fish- ing trip wbich unfortunately had to be postpened due to the fact the ownens of various fishing lod- ges are away on trapping expe- ditions thus being eut of contact for a couple of weeks. The President then made a re- port on sbooting activities. Un- fortunately none of the lecals en- tered the Dominion markmansbip Canada wide target competitions this year. We have manksmen * who can give an acceunt cf tbem- selves in any .22 sporting rifle centest. To wit, our Phil Pattrlck &"toek the Canada wide Remem- *7WJrance Trephy Shoot fer ail Good- year employees wîtb a scere cf 393,22x out cf a possible 400,40x. Phil alse teck off with the local Rod & Gun trephy, his score was 99,6x out cf a possible 100,10x. Also Phil bas earned bis Dominion marksmen expert sbield with a score of 5918 out 'cf a possible 6000. This, as any marksman will tell you is good shooting. The question of a sportsman picnic was brought Up and the ground work on this is well under way. Bob Drummond cf New- castle, the veteran fisherman who is also a member cf the Newcastle Club and the Ganaraska Fish & Game Association, is the apostaI of centact between the Clubs to find the feeling regarding time and place. Therefore more about this later. The finances of the club being in good shape, a motion was pasa- ed to purchase a spotting scope for the target ranges for the next season's shoot. This wiUl reaily enhance the scoring possibilities ef tbe locals wbo wiil reaily give an account of tbemselves in the 1Dominion Marksmen trials next year.N Business belng accomplished the meeting was banded over te the chairman cf the entertain- ment committee, the apt and witty Joe O'Neill wbo swung in with gneat zest. The programme con- sisted of movies by our local mas- ter cf the art of enjeying the great out-doons, Dr. J. C. Devitt. Three lengtby films wene shown cf travel, fisbing and photo-stalk- ing deer and bear much te the de- ligbt cf ail present, especiaily the yeunger people. Intermission be- tween pictures was used for tbe presentation of trephies and the draw for the casting outfit given by the club. The lucky winner was Ron Johnson. Light lunch was served by the men which was incidentally sup- plied by the men. It consisted of vanieus kinds of sandwiches, white and chocolate cake, cookies and pop which lunch was received witb mucb relisb considering the way it disappeared. In all, the. opp bouse was a great success judglhg from varieus remanks heard around the hall. The Newtonville Girls' Softball Team held their anr.ual meeting on Apnil 26. The following offi- cers were elected: Manager, Keith Burley; Coach, Don Vinkle; Cap- tain, Mary Vinkle; Se'y-Treas., Gladys Walkey. As yet a playing field basn't been found. The girls are lccking forward to a gced seasen, and hope the park wiil be in playing condition for the borne games. HEY tell 16 SANITQNE mon CLOSETS JAMMED WUTH WINTER CLOTHES?...--JUST CALL US!

Annual Banquet Enjoyable Af f air Bowmanville Teens Bowling League lield their annual banquet and presentation of trophies Fni- day evening at the Lions Com- munity Centre. About 60 ,youag folk were present, including a large number cf high school stu- dents who were invited as an in- troduction to the fellowship of the league. It is hoped that many of these will become members cf the league when it la organized again next faîl. The Hooper Trophy, presented to the team which stood first dur- ing the league schedule, was awarded to a group made up cf Bob Gallagher, Murray Winacott, Jack Vance, Jackie Elliott, Isobel Cruikshank, Blanche Crowe, Rus- sell Lane and Veronica Friend.

Statuettes were awarded te the high girl and boy, and merchan- dise certificiates were given the members cf the high team and high doubles. It is expected that these will be used te buy records at The Radio Shop. The financial report for the league showed a balance of $10.00. This was gained by a combination of dues, money and door fees. The girls brought a box lunch, and pop was distributed among the group. There was danclig and games. Recreational Director Don Shay played the piano for certain cf the ga-es. Nor Alu Jaki Cor. King & Silver Sis. PONTYPOOL We neyer have owned a John Deere product. But, we do ap- preclate the klndly thoughtful- nesa cf the John Deere agent, F. S. Allen & Sons, Bowmanville, in sending us their sprightly pet- iodical called "The Furrow." It contains many articles of inter-o est as weil as a joke or, twe. Speaking cf jokes, step Up folks and shake banda with the prize sap of Pentypool. The other night we came eut cf the show at Bowmanville, it was pitch dark, raining cats and dogs. We hopped into the Austin, started the motor, switched on the ligbts, headed for'home. When a big transport nearly made mince- meat eut cf us, we realized something was screwy, Inspec- tion proved our parking higbts were ahl that were showing. We couldn't go te Pontypool like that, s0 limped painfully along till we reacbed Joe Cooper's. Mrs. Cooper informed us that Joe was in Oshawa and would be back (probably) in a baîf heur. So, we decided te wait. She ccurteously suggested several tbings that might be wrong. Finally, te make polite corwer- sation, we described how the thing bad acted. Emphasizing our remarks, we pulled on the ligbt button, behold, the lights came on. We had switched them on "parking" instead cf "bnigbt." The howls cf glee fromn Mrs. Cooper, my wife and daugbter could be beard a mile away. My face is still red. If you think Mrs. Cooper is any smarter than I, just ask ber how corne she phoned Joe te corne and stant the new station wagon, then, when Joe arrived he discovened fniend wife badn't switcbed on the ignition. Guess Mrs. Cooper and thîs writer must have devel- oped "Austinitis." My wife declares it was watch- ing June Haver doing ber strip tease in "Oh, You Beautiful Doll," that had me so ga-ga I didn't know what switch te twist. Could be! Was speaking te Bll Scott te'ether day. His ulcers are act- ing up again. He is still barber- ing at Lou Cornin's in Oshawa, on Bond Street, East. In bis spare time, Bill is wniting a novel which. he întends to caîl, "When my ulcers burt, or, how I cut bis bair for baîf a buck." Last week, we told ,of the golden wedding celebration cf Mr. and Mrs. Lou Williamson. It is our sad duty at the present time te report Mns. Williamson's death at the age of 71. She passed away while visiting friends in Lindsay, just five days after ber fiftieth wedding anniversary. Mrs. Williamson was born at Haydon. Her funeral was held at Ponty- pool on May lltb and was large- ly attended. We extend the hand cf friendsbip and sympathy to BOWMANVILLE 'i ""liermedialo " DASEDALL Opening Came her bereaved husband and other relatives. The wrlter will miss the cbarniing hospitality he bas enjeyed at the Williamson home for the last thirty years. We were guests cf the Long Sault Home and School Club Friday evening. It was very nice te once again meet these friendly, bospitable folks and to share in their evenlng's activities. AI- tbougb tbey have suspended the#r meetings tili next October, tbey h ave made provision for a com- munity picnic in July. The writer bas often had his *ars pulled because he advocated that attendants at our schools should participate in exercises wbich would impress the scholars with the importance cf Remem- brance Day, instead cf being given a wbole day's holiday. We tbink the ferenoon should be given over te these exercises. Then, allow the moppets a haîf holiday. Apparently eur Prime Minister tbinks along the same lines. Be- cause, we notice in the public prints, where Mr. St. Laurent bas consulted with the Premiers cf the Provinces on the subject cf having the children taugbt suit- able facts about citizenship. He, or rather they, feel May 23rd is the logîcal day. It is further felt that these citizensbip exercises sbould be held in the schools cf our land, rather than hand the participants another boliday Last Saturday we played host te some 65 scouts who had fore- gathered on the Federation pro- perty. They planted several thou- sand scotch and red pines, went for a hike through the Ganaraska area, then home te Peterboro, Port Hope, etc. Wbom do you suppose was silly enough te lead the hike? That's right, me! Whom do you suppose still feels like a spavîn- ed old nag with a bad ring bone? Me, again! Those Boy Scouts are a cute bunch. They fed me a bit of blarney about bow mucb they enjoyed the hike in 1949. First thing I knew, we were hik- ing this year. Old "Bugle" lead- ing the pack. Next year we are going te fix it se the Scouts will carry me on a litter. That's really the only way te enjoy a good hike, just relax, view the sights, let the other ginks carry you.
