I 'I 16 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, August 15,1984 Liberal Candidate Meets His Constituents Fallis Memorial Grand Success Came from Good Luck, Good Sense and Love of Music Liberal candidate, Darce Campbell, welcomed a number of guests to his informal "meet the public night" held last Friday evening in his King Street committee room. Past Candidate, Ed Schamerhorn (left) and Campaign Manager, Manager, Francine Newton (centre), are pictured here looking over the election proposals with Mr. Campbell. Last week, the Liberal candidate announced his ombudsman approach to the election. This would involve making himself available on consecutive days in Cobourg, Port Hope, Bowmanville, and Port Perry, to assist the public with their tax returns, as well as working in Ottawa towards simplifying all tax returns. Darce Campbell also proposes to be available to all constituents on a regular basis, and will arrange to meet with farmers and businessmen monthly, to give them the benefit of his financial expertise.

With by Laurie Townsend Some of us will spend the weekend lounging, lazing and not giving much thought to anything after the weekend. Then there are the members of the local branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints who will test their survival skills on an Emergency Trek this Saturday. Saturday. This is the second year for the trek, a trial of the members' members' preparation for "civic disasters." The Emergency Trek is a six-mile hike, and members will carry two days' worth of supplies as they walk. Some have made special handcarts for their loads, others will carry backpacks. A truck will drive along the route for anyone who tires or has trouble. They will head for the Phoenix Farm (which belongs to a member) and stay there Saturday night. The trek is not a test so much as it is a chance to practise the Church's strong belief in survivalism. Members advocate food storage (putting food away to provide for emergencies) Authorities at the Canadian National Exhibition were swamped last week with a final rush of entries for the "Canadian 100" Holstein Show to be held August 16 and 17. "It will take us a week just to get them catalogued," a spokesman for the C.N.E. agriculture department said. "We have 705 entries for the Centennial show, compared with something over 300 in a normal year." The C.N.E. Holstein cattle show this year is a special event for breeders across Canada because their Breed Association was conceived at the "X" 100 years ago; A group of 20 black and white cattle enthusiasts sat down in a box stall and worked out the basis for Canada's largest Breed Organization that now registers more than 150,000 purebred Holsteins each year in some 15.000 member herds. two games per week per team, we will need all the help we can get. Good luck to all the teams and players in the playoffs. and sponsor welfare projects. projects. Members are not allowed allowed to receive any kind of public welfare assistance, relying instead on the aid of their church community, (The church, however, would aid the town in case of emergency) They stress that people should be prepared prepared for anything, and to know exactly what they need and have to do. Glenn Lander, president of the local branch of the Church, says that the trek is really an enjoyable, spiritual get-together. They will prepare meals, have a social on Saturday night, and have a three-hour service service on Sunday morning. Last year's 84 participants participants may have seemed to be an unusual sight, and Mr. Lander said many people talked to the walkers to Find out what they were up to. He said that while a few people found them strange, most appreciated and were impressed impressed by the Emergency •Trek. T he only problem that he can anticipate is poor weather, but the hikers will be ready for it. Outstanding cattle from many of those herds will be exhibited at the "Canadian 100" show. Junior breeders, the 4-H club members, will kick off the show parading their calves at 13:00 hours, August 16. The "Sale of Stars" will follow that evening, when a cross section of elite pedigreed animals will be offered at auction. The next day, August 17, the open show begins at 10:00 hours and runs all day. A beef barbecue in the evening will complete the festivities. The "Canadian 100" show at the C.N.E. is the climax of a year of Centennial celebrations by Holstein people. Breeders from all provinces, many of the neighboring states in the U.S., as well as numerous foreign visitors are expected to attend.

Rain Helps Some Crops The rain that ended the recent drought has helped keep growing and harvesting harvesting on their normal schedules. Spokesmen at the Durham Region East office of the Ministry of Agriculture Agriculture said that any harvest delays are only a day or two when the fields are too wet to work. Some areas have had a lot more rain than others, but the rain is a help anywhere. Too much rain (as in 2-3" in a very short time) is not all helpful as it runs off the plants and into puddles. But the ground has been dry enough that the puddles do not last long enough to do root damage. The rain came too late to help wheat, barley and oats, as some of them (in fact, most wheat) have already been combined. It was just in time to help corn and soybeans, soybeans, both in critical stages of seeding. by Catherine Denny Try to envision Jimi Hendricks, Hendricks, his music, his purple Cadillac and his unique hair and clothes designs and his enormous following. following. Now try to imagine a record record company that would dare refuse a contract with him. World Records is one such company. This is just one of those teeth-gritting memories that keep haunting record manufacturers like Bob Stone who knows that in this business, luck counts. "My wife and I didn't think that Jimi had what it would take." Mr. Stone explained. "I could have kicked myself when I realized the mistake I had made, but yoù win some, you lose some." But luck is only a small fraction of success. When Bob became more experienced experienced in the business he was better able to distinguish distinguish between the potential stars and the doomed-to- failures through a certain gut feeling that only comes from knowing the job. Mr. Stone explained that the "here today, gone tom- morrow" artists usually rely on the cosmetics of the business in order to survive. survive. The superstars are down-right good performers performers who are the same on the stage as off the stage. Bob could tell you almost anything you wanted to know about the recording business, from who designs the album jackets to what color of underwear Mick Jaggar wears, but there was a time when he knew absolutely absolutely nothing about the entertainment entertainment circle. With no education behind him, Bob began work at the bottom; earning is wages with practically everything from truck driving to packing packing records. So how did he end up as the owner of the largest custom custom record manufacturer and packager in Canada? "I was one of those people that got a lucky break. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time." he said. Bob's interest in the recording recording business came to a peak when he landed a job as a radio announcer at a small Brampton station which gradually led to better better positions at the larger Toronto stations. The young announcer progressed rapidly, becoming becoming more and more intrigued intrigued with the recording side of the music business. Sooner than later, Bob's questions led to answers and before he knew it, he was well on his way to the record manufacturing side of the disc. Now that Mr. Stone, along with his 15 year partner Bill Hewson, have earned a reputation of being the top men in their field, Bob seems to be spending more time at public conventions and seminars all over the world, speaking about the record making business. But, even with all this suc cess, Bob still manages to pursue his favorite pastimes pastimes of pinball games federal federal duck stamp collecting, and best of all, listening to music.
