Merchant's Market considered success This years Western Week- end merchants street market was an overwhelm- ing success according to many of those who partici- pated. One merchant was heard to say, that they did not realize just what they were missing out on, until this year when they set up a table outside with bargain goods for the consumer. Along the street the shopp- er was exposed to everything from ashtrays to tape re- corders, books to clothing and jewellery to hotdogs. Large crowds on the street both Friday and Saturday attributed to the better-than- usual response to the outdoor market. The Chamber of Com- merce are already talking about extending the street mall to include the second block of retail stores for next years Western Weekend. Winner of this years Mer- chants Free Draw was Mr. Jerry Jackman of Port Perry, who received a lawn umbrella, table and chairs. \ 191 Queen Street - STAR Port Perry, Ont. 985-8123 Stationery & Office Surprly A Division of Port Perry Star Co.

The racers in the sanction- ed events are eager to please according to Mr. Waring, who said there hasn't been as much money in the racing circuit this year as there has in the past. Operating in the shadow of the Olympic fever this year, Mr. Waring said many of the people who usually foot some of the bills for the expensive but spectacular sport simply decided to channel their funds into Olympic support.
