ACTIVITIES - Saturdav vas one of the busiest night s around Durham County for a long tinie and The Statesman photographer packed in a full schedule, starting at Newtonville early in the evening. If must have been a great night for the turkey growers toc because there were at least three banquets where the roasted birds were being consumed in great quantities. At Newtonville, the Ganaraska Riders held their banquet, the Kendal hall champs were being bonored af Orono, the Girl Guides and Rangers at Hampton were entertaining United States visitors, the two soccer cbampionship teanis were being fed welI and presented with trophies at Solina and at Bethany, their Midget bail teamn reeeived new jackets. Only item missed was the Firemen's Bal at Janetville. That wiIl have te wait until next year. Who says there is nothing te do arouind here ? CHANGES - Times certainly have changed. Net long ago if somecone had tried to lega]ize the sale cf liquor with or without meals in Clarke Township, there would have been a hue and cry fromn the op- position that could have been heard many miles away. This time, the vote was held and approval grated without any organized opposition. Frankly, we were surprised that, with such a small vote out, the proposais were approvad by over 60%,". Clarke Township will neyer be quite the same again. Who wiflbene ton the ia4 Darinetn? BREATHE DEEPLY, DRIVERS On Mouday, the Federal law making breathalyzer tests mandatory rame into effect.
