President Bob Coulthard, Chief Executive Officer Julian Smith, Rod Blackwell Mgr. of Peterborough District Coop, Mr. John Turner, M.P.P. of Peter- borough County and Alder- man George Bennett for pinch hitting for Peter- borough Mayor Wasson was present. An insight into future plans and technical capabilities of the new edifice were presented. Mr. Ernie Miller, Group Director of Zones 1, 2 and 3 introduced the guests present. Adding a little unnecessary excitement was the presence of a local Union picket group who muscled into the proceedings in customary fashion. On Thursday evening the Yelverton Sunday School sponsored an evenings enter- tainment in the church basement for members and their parents and friends. The evening commenced with a pot luck supper . followed by a program including skits, etc. put on by the Sunday School members. Clifford Wright and Paul Atkinson each gave their speech that they gave at Grandview School on "Poverty" and "Pollution" respectively. Observing the "Year of the Child" the children demonstrated their handiwork in what they were doing weekly in class.
