Me and a few thousand others found aurselves attracted to Bala last weekend for the running of the annual Western Ontario and Canadian National Charn- pionship Hydroplane races.

Besides the hydroplane races, there were water skiing shows Saturday and Sunday including skiing flying, and dances on Friday and Saturday nights. It was a phatographer's Paradise! ,Our only local representative was Scott Burns of Osaadriving a Mercury powered A-Stock Run- about (utility boat). Scatt's ten-foot boat was hame- built and will do better than 50 mph. The campetitian was tough, but a well-fought battle earned aur lad his riglit ta th 'ird place.
