McMullen Hardware is showing signs of reopening under management of the well..known Carnegie family of Port Perry. Sa, we have Iost a few and gained some new ones. That's the way the cookie crum- hies, as they say. Wonder when somebody is going to take over the theatre property and open Up a business of some type? t tt t FREEZE - The current stretch of cold weather has lasted now for several weeks, and been a real boon ta those who have started outdoor rînks in their back yards. At the moment, there are dozens of them around the town, where the youngsters have had a wonderful time during the holidays. It must be tough on the water supply and the water bills, but certainly has given some of the would-be NHL hockey players of the future, more ice time than they could possibly get any other way. And so far, there's no sign of the customary January thaw. tt BRAWL- Accarding bo reports, there ivas a fair-sized brawl near the four corners on Friday about midnight between Bownianville's long hairs and the shorb-haired fellows. As the squab- hie continued, about 50 spectators gathered to witness the event, while others going home, crossed over to the north side of the street to avoid trouble. No major casuaities were report- cd, but there were a few noses bleeding before energies subsided and peace restored. No details of the cause of the oubburst have been released. Maybe we'i1 really need that Lennon 'Peace' Festival at Mosport if this continues. At least that wiII be a better spot than King Street for those who are enger to gel mbt a scrap., FRIGHT 'ENING - On Monday evening, a mother and her two young daughters were walking south on Liberty St. south of the hospital, when several boys old enough to know better, began bothering them. The encounter concluded with the boys taking one girl's Brownie hat and rurining away with it. Needless ta say to the youngsters and their mother it was a frightening experience. If your son came home with a Brownie hat on Monday night, a few words of wisdomi might be in order.
