Denker. This lightweight contemporary piece was centred around Sammy and Laura, two lonely pensioners who horrified their adult children with plans to co- habitate without the benefit of clergy. This empathetic couple were depicted com- pletely and sympathetically by Ed Daigle and Emmie. Cox. by Jean Jeffery Several from the Com- munity attended the Holstein banquet held in the Uxbridge Secondary School on Wed. The guest speaker was the Agricultural Representative from Peel County. He gave an interesting. account of Share-Agriculture Foun- dation Activities. The Foundation donated forty heifers and two bulls which were sent to Brazil. A family from Peel County sold their- own herd and went with these animals to set up a breeding station there. The cattle thus raised will be distributed to the underprivi- _leged to help raise their standard of living. It has been asked why the organi- zation did not work through Care or be Government sponsored. It was found that this entailed too much red tape and was too expensive. They wanted the personal touch -- the concept of people helping people. Mr. and Mrs. John Weirsma, Brian and JoAnn of Blythe were overnight visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Ross Evans. Several attended the band concert in Port Perry High' School on Wed. night and enjoyed the programme.

Mr. and Mrs. Jack Monsma of Utica were The plot's developing conflict revolved around the oldsters' unpleasant young- sters, Sammy's Cynthia (played by Irma Lewis), who - shrilly lamented the goings- on in her old room, Laura's Mickey (played by Maurice Burgess), who quavered and wavered between wife Eleanor (castratingly played by Carol Harris) and mother Laura. An additional dash of insanity was con- tributed by (Terry Hodgins) mad Arthur, the question- able psychiatrist with unmentionable fetishes supper guests with her parents Mr. and Mrs. A. Card.

Happily, everything worked out under David Ellis' direction, and the dismayed progeny all accepted their new-found family unit. The Senior citizens then revealed their true intent -- matrimony -- to climax the plot and the play. A gentle waltz saw them into their sunset years. And for those who don't now know what the two most difficult words in the English language are, it's a shame you missed the play. The Borelians' Spring production will be There Goes The Bride.
