Friday night in Seaforth, it's time for [An Expositor feature by John Miner) Placing a chip over a number when someone-calls it out may not sound like a very exciting way to spend a Friday night, but every week in Seaforth sixty people or more come to the Legion to do just that. Friday night is bingo night in Seaforth and the Legion is often crowded with players. Mrs. Jennie Hildebrand of Seaforth is one of the regulars. Although she won't say how many years she has been playing, it has been a long time. "You can't get in until you're 16, so that should give you an, idea how long I've been coming," she says. Those who filter in to the hall around 8 P.m. for the first game at 8;15 don't waste any time selecting their cards and just an y card won't do. • "I want a seven and an eleven on the corner," Mrs. Hildebrand Jells another veteran bingo player who is sorting through a pile of cards. "Was 14 good last week?" asks the sorter. "No, it was rotten, I had it last week;" says Mrs. Hildebrand. "But do you have a 75? A 75 -`is the highest number there is and if you go any higher -you're cheating," she explains. Bingo players in .Seaforth can win up to $75, but money isn't the real reason she plays, says Mrs. Hildebrand. "I get ,a kick out of playing bingo, but don't let anyone tell you that they don't enjoy winning the money. I didn't win anything last week, but I did the week before," she said. Then • the announcer, Leo Teatero, is • welcoming everyone to the bingo and the first • game is underway. It is a relaxing atmosphere. The room is quiet- except for the. Correspondent Mrs. John rempleman The executive of. the Perth South District Wamen's Institute met recently at the home of the president, Mrs. Carter Kerslake. Plans were made for the Fall Rally to .be hele.at Alma Community Centre, October 21, the area convention of Tillsonburg,-Nov. 9 and 10, and the District, executive and officers banquet at St. Marys on November 22. Forty Staffa Institute members, their- husbands and friends attended and enjoyed the "Anne of Green Gables" production on Friday evening at the. Huron Cotintry 'Playhouse. Paul Mahon had the misfortune to fracture his collar bone this past week, while helping load cattle.

Miss Joan Burleigh, Goderich BINGO low murmur of occasional conversation and the soft clicking of chips after each new number is called. "I like bingo because it gets me out of the house," says Barb, Adair of. Mitchell. "But that is about all because the game is so frustrating.. You always go home a little mad." Jack Hart of Clinton is another person who likes to win at the game, but losing 'doesn't bother him either. "The game is a habit for me more than anything. I don't -think you could ever be ahead at the game, but it makes it interesting when you win. A person likes to Win. There isn't much you can do about it though, it's like horse racing. if you're going to win, you're going to' win and it doesn't mastter how many cards you're playing." "Although most of the players call a a pastime, not all feel the same way about the game. "You want, to know the truth?" says Louis Kramers of Dublin. "I don't like the game. It is a good pastime, but I don't like the game. WE.come in shopping and the wife likes it, but I don't." Elmer. Lee of Clinton feels 'neutral about bingo, though. "I just go to the odd one, I don't go too steady," he said. '.1t is just something to do if you're not doing. anything else. The announcer has been giving numbers for over five minutes now. "It's going to come," says Mrs. Hildebrand. "Make it 0 - 62". "0-63" says the announcer. 'We have a binge." "I knew I should have taken the card with 0-63 on it. I just knew it."
