That was just oneof the Colo0u), details discussed at last 'Th'ursday's Centennial meeting. The tartan mat erial is' "on sale right now on Main Street"; Elva Ellis .said; The skirts and vests can be made-up by sewers at bonne, the Centennial committee suggest. Five hundred hats have been cut out, and 28 completed' when the material for the brims ran out. Home Ec students at S.D.H.S. are making the hats for the committee. Mrs. Ellis said: "I hope they'll go alright. My neck is in a noose if they don't." Two hundred and ten yards of material have already been ordered and more is on order. It was suggested a styrof.aam hat be sold too for about 75 cents. Rec Director Clive Buist, chairman of the. Centennial Committee said all businesses should "make a push" to put things in their store winclovvs because it will add a lot of color to the downtown . He suggested antiques, pictures and old- fashioned clothes as possible items. The meeting decided to hold a contest on Monday, June 30 at 11 a.m, for the best costume. The categories will include prizes for men, women-, boys and girls. Prizes and.. judges have not- beet' chosen but this contest is to encourage people to dress up in old-fashioned clothes for the Centennial. The Centennial Committee will approach the town council for permission to keep Gouinlock Street closed all weekend, to close off areas for the prade and to close off Main Street from Highway #8 to Market Street for , Reporter here for summer By Nancy Andrews If you've noticed a new face around town, it might be mine. I'm a third year journalism student at the University of Western Ontario and will be working at the Huron Expositor this summer. I'm from the Windsor area, in particular from Sandwich South Township, a rural township bordering on the city of livIssg• • Two'. SOndayi ago, I collie to Seaforth. Before coming I called the bus depot and asked about how long it would take to get to Seaforth. A depot official said, "On a Sunday, it's nearly impossible l" I got here, but it took eight hourvs because I had to take the milk run or the scenic route as' others call it. I'll be around town asking a lot of questions this summer. Hopefully be able to write local interest stories, so if anyone has any good ideas for a feature let me know. the Mc POO-Y Om* sale, Mrs 13aist id the. committee wants '4"4in merch4nts out there BeggingBegging , gs" as possible and thatiMusic will be piped in to add atmosphere. Mr, Carclno said merchants want to upgrade the items sold at this sidewalk sale, because in the past a lot of inferior goods were displayed. Mr. Buist when discussing the sale of lottery tickets for the 1200 club said: "At least we know we have covered our costs," When later called, he said he meant the committee covered the cost of the prize money from ticket sales from outside-of town. You join the 1200 club , by buying a lottery ticket that sells for $10 with first prize $1,000, second prize $500 and five third prizes of $25. Mr. Buist said the committee plans to spend a total of $30,000 on the Centennial and of course hopes to recover that money through ticket sales for all the events. He said "We're not set up to make money." Centennial is not specifically to make money but an attempt to offer people a good week-end. He suggested people look on the purchase of a 1200 club ticket as a donation. On the Centennial weekend Saturday at 6 p.m. a "posh" dinner affair is being planned at the Legion Hall. There will be only about 200 tickets on sale. The tickets will be $8 a plate for a menu that the committee hopes to molcolithet: special, including wine. complimentary tickets to this WOPT.
