oa ¥ ANA SR ara LVN TANS : FH J $ OTRO iat 20 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wed. March 3, 1982 ~ Yelverton an Congratulations are extended to one of our Yelverton residents in the person of Mr. Ralph Pfok. Ralph was recently pre- sented with the Bronze medal for Bravery from the Royal -Canadian Humane Association. This presenta- . tion was made recently by 17h Lindsay Mayor Jim Flynn prior to a Lindsay Council Meeting. The "event that triggered this presentation occurred almost three years ago on Sun. evening, April 9, 1979 at the then Kawartha Lakes Correctional School for girls, located west of Lindsay. On that occasion two young men gained entry into this "No Man's Land for Men' by subterfuge and demanded that a female ward of the institution be released and allowed to depart with them. Mr. Pfok resisted the two in this regard and was able to maintain the institution's security and thwart the two in their efforts to release the girl. Unfortunately during the violent skirmish that followed (Ralph possesses a broad knowledge of Judo with various coloured belts to his credit) he was seriously injured by his assailants and to date has never fully recovered his former top physical condi- tion which he enjoyed prior to the unfortunate incident. Those responsible for the violent assault have never been identified or brought to justice. Our community shares its pride with Ralph's wife Linda in this well deserved honour coming Ralph's way, in being presented with this well deserved token of recognition for an act of bravery, well over and above the call of duty. Mr. and Mrs. Terry Malcolm have answered that 'Call to Jamaica" again this year and Brenda and Terry are currently basking in the warmth of the Carribean. Meanwhile back at the ranch, Mr. and Mrs. Alan Gundrie of Barrie are assisting Eileen and Howard Malcolm in babysitting their grandkiddies. Congratulations to our mater Mrs. Emma Malcolm of Uxbridge who will be quietly observing her 88th birthday on Feb. 26. She is the sole remaining member of the Wright family and is confined to a wheel chair. STORM WINDOWS & DOORS A little extra-curricular excitement occurred in our vicinity this week. A couple of chaps were noticed helping themselves to a number of tools from a tractor parked at a farm residence east of Cadmus. The owner who was having a bath at the time on being notified by his wife of the culprits rushed out partly clad to apprehend the thiefs. They took off in their car with the owner in hot pursuit. Eventually he was able to force their car off the road into a snow bank. One fellow escaped across the field on foot, the other was captured. The police were called and took over. The local farmer is to be commended for his quick and aggressive action. Far too many robberies are being committed daily and getting away with it. Belated congratulations to Mary Moore on winning a $1000 bingo prize while vacationing in Florida recently.

Plans for the April campaign were discussed and formed. This year's objective is $16,000. The Cancer Society's 1982 theme "We Need You Now -- More Than Ever," refers to the concern that some people may feel that due to the success of the fund raising efforts of Terry Fox, contin- ued public support of the Society is not necessary.
