--. ---------------- Thieves walk off with 2 TVs An overnight break-in on Concession 10, Nes- tleton resulted in the theft of several expensive items. Police said the incident took place the night of Novem- ber 4-5 and entrance into the home was gained by kicking out a door on the north side of the house. Among the missing items were two tv sets, a VCR, a silver chest and silver setting, two bottles of liquor and a quantity of cash. The same evening, a home on Concession 6 near Black- stock was entered, also after a door was kicked in. The owners were away at the time. Police say one room in the house was ransacked. It is not known at this time whether anything was stolen. Cancer Society bash a success It was surely a night to remember! Port Perry has never had the likes of this before. Many fine entertainers have pleased au- diences in the past, of course. However, for those who like and enjoy the big band sounds, it was an evening to be remembered last Saturday at the Islander on Scugog Island. The 20-piece Lindsay Concert Band entertained with many old favourites, such as, Tuxedo Junc- _ tion, the Tennessee Waltz, the Kiss of Fire, and many more. The sparkling 5-piece LIDOS from Toronto, also offered a variety of grand old tunes seldom heard to- day. Rock around the Clock, Viva Espana, a fast Jazz Blues and a very pleasing Yodeling song, Kufsteiner. The Kawartha Big Band camé through with such grand oldies as Blue Tango, Deep Purple, Gotta Travel On, and the never to be forgotten, Moonlight Serenade. The Step In Time Dancers were there and perform- ed with their usual expertise. Attendance exceeded the Scugog Cancer Society's expecta- tions wonderfully. Much more money was realized than original- ly anticipated. This fact alone justifies the efforts of the singers, dancers and musicians, over 30 in all, who performed without pay. Of course, none of this would have been possible without the total cooperation of the owner and staff of the Islander, the merchants who donated generously and the hours of behind the scenes effort by a host of workers, which a pro- ject of this magnitude requires. "Do it again!' "Whan are you going to repeat it?" "'Let's have more!" were the comments heard constantly during the evening. The hall was still full when "0 Canada" was played. Where and when it will be repeated we can- not tell. You will just have to watch this space. See you then.
