Here are two absorbed girls plotting their next design at the library film-making session. This was just one of the many fun things the library offered small fry this summer at the Bowmanville Bowmanville location. The students were creating their own animated films by drawing on blank film last week. by Loma Miller This year, the Bowmanville Bowmanville Library has been a summer haven for children ■ six years old and up. Once a week for the past eight weeks, they have been entertained entertained or invited to participate participate in projects that expanded expanded their imaginations and enlivened their creativity. creativity. They have been transported transported into the realm of fantasy fantasy by Fairytale Fun; learned how to be amateur James Bonds at Spy School; enjoyed a puppet show and become budding Speilbergs by drawing with magic marker on blank film. On Friday, Aug. 18th, they were held spell-bound by magician-scientist Dave Owen from the Ontario Library Library Services, Trent. Louise Chatterton, Trent University freshman in sociology sociology and Library Summer Program Assistant, helped in the creation of this summer's summer's program which was organized organized by Maria Politano, Community Services Librarian Librarian at the Bowmanville branch of the Newcastle Public Library. She is in charge of all programming for the library. On film day, looking around at the busily absorbed absorbed children who were scribbling intently with markers on strips of film, Louise commented: "The kids really enjoy this. We had to bleach tne film for five hours last night to prepare prepare it to take the markers. The kids have to repeat their chosen design 24 times on the film. Then we're going going to splice it all together and make a movie." The children were really coming up with intricate and interesting designs. Some drew faces and some drew figures. Some wrote words (which meant they had to do each letter 24 times) and some did rockets. Whatever their chosen design, design, the kids were really into it. The concentration was intense. Carol Bennett, of the library's library's Visual Media Services Services for Film and Video, was in the cutting room busily splicing the film together as it came in. Loops of mar- kered film lay at her feet. "This is great for the children. children. They are learning that they can be creative on film," she said as she spliced a green space ship film to one with blue stars. "I don't know what we'd do without people like Louise. _ She's been wonderful. I'll miss her a whole lot." "There is just too much here for me to do today", Carol observes as Dorothy Raine, who brought her son Charles in for the day's fun, arrives with another armful of film. "I'll put it all togeth er when 1 have more time and we'll have a special showing later on." Louise announces that the audience of artists is getting getting restless for a preview of their handiwork. Carol winds the film onto a reel and takes it to the auditorium. auditorium. When the film is run, with accompanying music, the children' receive their creation with enthusiasm. The Bowmanville Library .Summer Program Film Fes- ' tival was a huge success. The following afternoon, Dave Owen gave a show that was half legerdemain and half science. The audience audience was treated to demon strations of friction, displacement displacement of air and water and the creation of a vacuum, vacuum, to single out a few of his many tricks. The children thought he was hilarious and eagerly participated with him in his scientific sorcery. This week, the program will wind down with films. But other activities for children children will continue all through the winter months with something for all ages.

If you do then you are probably eligible to attend the world's largest reunion of former Empire (Commonwealth) Air Trainees to be held in Perth, Western Australia between April. 22 and 30,1990. . ■ Theitwo Avro Ansons pictured had collided jn midair midair over New South Wales in Australia in 1940/ Despite incredible odds, Len Fuller, the pilot of the top aircraft, successfully landed both Ansons -- only to be knocked over two weeks later while riding his bicy- cle! That picture, and the sad aftermath, will bring back many memories to the more than 250,000 men who were selected for air-crew training under the Empire Empire Air Training Scheme (Plan) from 1940 to 1945. _ Although training was tough, close friendships were formed between trainees of many different lands. They were times of great fellowship and hilarious hilarious escapades, and also of great emotional sadness when their 'mates' went away and never came back. Now for the first time in 50 years, an attempt is being being made to get together as many as possible of the surviving former trainees from Australia, Great Britain, Britain, Canada, New Zealand, South America, India and other Commonwealth countries. _ Several thousand former trainees are expected to wing their way in to Perth, Western Australia for this very moving Golden Anniversary Reunion - a reunion which will mean a great deal to those who gave their all during the Second World War.
