Carnegie. is Port Perry Folk Support Light Bulb Campaign The Port Perry Lions found an en- thusistic welcome when they made the rounds on 'their Light Bulb Cam- paign. It was in fact s06 much bet- , ter than expected that the entire _ supply of light bulbs was exhausted before the area had all been can- vassed. The Lions Club have or- dered more bulbs and will be pack- ing more bags. If you .care to help out by ordering your supply. please contact Lion Dr. chairman of the campaign. The package this year contains 4-60 watt bulbs and 4-100 watt bulbs, and the 100 watt bulbs are guaranteed by the manufacturer for 1000 hrs. Regular retail value of package is $2.04, From the Lions Club for $2.00. The members of the Lions Club have asked us to thank Port Perry folk for their wonderful reception and to say they are sorry they underes- timated the supply which would be needed. a Lions Have Successful Spring Dance The Annual Spring dance of the Port Perry Lions Club proved to be ones-of the most successful held in this area for some time. Cy McLean and his band are very popular with the local dancers and the big crowd was largely composed of folk from There is no doubt, about it his music is nice to dance to and nice to listen to. Possibly, too, the cabaret setting, which is new to the Port' Perry as- sembly halls was an encouraging fac- tor. It adds to the friendly atmos- phere and is enjoyed by those who like to sit and listen as much as they liké to dance, . : + Whatever. the reason The Lions '/ Club appreciate the enthusistic sup- port and welcome a substantial 'sum to their fund for charity work, McNab, who is. Coaches Ken Boyd and Jim Former Warden : 'To Be Deputy Sheriff A new deputy-sheriff was sworn into office in Ontario County recently, He is Morley Bain, 36, a Scott Twp. farmer, who was warden of the county in 1957. He succeeds John Anderson, 78, who "has been deputy-sheriff since 1936. Mr. Bain took his oath of office in the Ontario County Court, Whitby, prior to the granting of certificates to 80 new Canadian citizens. In administering the oaths, one an oath of office and the other an oath of allegiance, Judge John E. Pritch- ard said that it was regrettable that the swearing in marks the retire- ment of the former deputy, John An- derson, who, he said, had served the county well for 23 years. He noted that Mr. Anderson is still in good health and has every prospect of en- joying many years of retirement. Of the new deputy-sheriff, His Honor said that great wisdom had been indicated in his selection for this important position, County Warden Cyril Morley, Ree- ve of Pickerig village, paid tribute to Mr. Anderson and stated that all 18 municipalities of the county' ap- preciated his services over the years and regret that time has brought about this change. To the new deputy-sheriff, he said that he was certain that Mr. Bain would fulfill his duties in a manner in which . they are supposed to be fulfilled. ' No Older Office Crown Attorney Alex. C, Hall, QC, as clerk of. the peace in the county, said that no office is older than that of sheriff, derived from the old name "Shire reeve." More thin 1,000 years ago, he .said, the sheriff was chosen as the outstand- ing husbandman of his shire and to his' came all the royal appointments, President of the Ontario County Law Association, John Greer extend- ed wishes for a long tenure of office for Mr, Bain. "He has always taken a keen and active interest of the af- fairs of this county and I feel that. it ttt ites as Disp dbtanie i {A a FR Saas is fortunate that he has been ap- pointed to this office." : | vib rates United Church Service Club Service Club met at the home of Mrs. Morley Luke on Tuesday, Mar. 25th with Mrs. Frank Honey and Mrs. Lloyd Clark in charge of the meeting. ~ Words of welcome were given by the president Mrs. F.

Other goal scorers in this game for the Gamblers were Johnny Hogg, George Cochrane and Ron Wallace. The Sutton club was highly favour- ed to win this series and after wallo- ping Greenbank in the second game in Newmarket by a score of '12-3, they looked to be a good bet to win the championship. The goal scorers for Greenbank in this game were J. Hogg, Bill Gibson and Gerry Hunter.

Bennett, Superintend- ing Engineer of the Department of Transport which stated that in accord- ance with License No. 42968, the Vil- lage of Port Perry is responsible for the maintence of dock house. Council decided to take the matter further as the dock house requires more than ordinary maintenance; the foundation posts having given away which has left the building without support, on the north side.

Back in Port Perry arena on Sat- urday night and with 500 fans in at- tendance, the Gamblers took a firm grip on the championship by downing the Greenshirts by a, score of 8-6. Glen Till, scoring at a pace that saw him net 7 goals in the last 3 games of the series, led the team to victory with a 4 goal output. Defenseman Doug McMillan scored a goal in this game that still has the fins talking. He broke away down the right side, cut in front of Carpentier in the Sut- ton goal, shifted him out of position and calmly lifted the puck into the top left hand corner of the net. A terrific effort by the: young defense- man. - The other goals for the Gam- blers were scored by Hogg with 2 and Bill Gibson. This set the stage foi what proved to be the final game in Newmarket on Monday night. The Greenbank team struck quickly in the first per- fod and Glen Till and Bill Gihson with 2 goals each gave them a. {-1 lead at the end of the first period.

Greenbank Fidelis Class The regular monthly meeting of the Greenbank Fidelis Class was held Wed. evening, April 2nd at the home of Lillian Harper." The devotional was opened by Isabel Raines. "When I survey the 'wondrous Cross" was sung and Ruth Foster followed with prayer, Fay Aldred read the Scrip- ture reading and Isabel Raines read a very appropriate piece called "fie is Risen". Lillian Harper read a poem and Hymn "Crown Him with many Crowns" was«sung and Isabel Raines closed with prayer.

In a tense third period the Greenbank defense, led by Ralph Dusty, Bill DeConkey, Don Cochrane and Doug McMillan, held the fort in front of goalie Jack Owens, who was terrific throughout the series.

Gould, incidentally, is an Uxbridge boy and he would be a welcome addi- tion to the Greenbank Gamblers next year, This is the third year that the club has been in operation and winning the O.R.H.A. senior title on top of winning the George Welsh trophy as Tri County League champions last year gives them a very respectable record. What gave the team a terrific boost was the way the fans from Sunder- land, Seagrave, Greenbank, and Port Perry supported the team in these play-offs.
