Her two princesses were Gayle Willis and Bonnie Couvier. Twelve girls entered the contest at the start, where qualifications demanded poise, persanality and appeàrance. Last year'si Queen, Marilyn Cobbledick presented the crown, the banner and flowers to hem successor and Hemb Duvall, president of the Orono Chamber of Commerce, gave hra cheque for $25. _________ ___ Vernon Singer, M.P.P.

The cornice was completely replaced and a coat of white painit put on over the red brick ta give the entime building a fresher appearance in keeping with the modemn front they installed last year. J. .1. t LIGHT GONE'OUT Yelverton citizens and many outsiders were saddened recently to leamn of the death of one of the cheeriest souls imagin- able, Hughie McGill. The nomthern village just won't seem the same without Hughie, the unofficial mayor of the community. TWO BIG EVENTS - Lack of space this week prevented publication of two photos which are of considerable interest. Both weme taken Tuesday evening. On~e showed Keith Banting receiving a shield for being "The Scout of the Year") and the other pomtayed five-year-old Del4bie Bothwell, "Miss Timmy", during the, Rotary ClIb's Eastem Seal Drive. She graduated from. the Oshawa and District Ceebral Palsy School and Clinic kindergarten last week. Complete with gown and mortar board, she visited the Eastern Star here and expressed thanks for their help. t 1 SCHOOL'S OUT - This week. students of High and Public Schools ini the area will be free for the surn.mer. We urge motomists ta take special note of this fact s0 they will, be on the watch for youngsters darting out fmom behind parked cars and so on, and adjust their speed accomdingly. Also, of course, it would be most timely ta investi- gate the new mouth-to-mouth method of resuscita- tion and a little gadget which should be available in every cottage. It only costÈ a few dollars but is used in connection Wvith the new method. Druggists and doctors should ho able ta advise where they can be obtained. t - t tj4 MAKING PROGRESS - Last Thumsday evening, five-year-oîd Debomah Edgem, daughter of Mm. and Mrs. W. R.' "Bill" Edger suffered a fractured skull when hit by a car near their Peterborough home. Latest repart is that she is making good pragmess. The ornament on the car's hood penetrated the back of her head, making surgery necessary. Her father was bomn here, son of Mrs. and the late W. A. Edge r.

She was heme on a combined visit with hem son and a huying expe- dition for hem antique shop in Belfast, Ireland. She had operated the shop for many years and gained considerable recognition for hem collection.

Henceforth, until the issue dies d9wn and is- forgotten, the fair and cornparatively ýlean-name of Bowmanville will be hinked in nmany minds with hot rodders, wild orgies, black jackets, Golden Hawks and backfiring motorcycles. It ail happened because an irresponsible outfit saw fit to make this community the scene of one of its wild affairs. Somehow, it doesn't seem fair tcq the com- munity or the majority of the young pople in it. We lay no dlaim to raising angels. Iii any town of this size, a percentage will, flot be a credit to their parents, their schools, their cburches or themselves. But, we do feel that our young folks are, in the main, good-living, well-adjusted, sens- ible youngsters who fortunately haven't acquired the "gang"~ conmp1ex. On Monday, the blaring headlines ini the daily papers seemed' far out of proportion to the occurrence. In our opinion, such pu1?licity only helps to glamorize these thrill-seeking'youngsters and make them heroes and legends with others of the same age. At court, the metropolitan dailies were there in full force, giving these im- pressionable youths and their girls the fui] picture treatment. Our only reaction was one of disgust as they brazenly displayed their fancy haircuts and the insignia of the infamous gang that pro- TTTTUIV
