Arena Completed For
Bayfield Fall fair
(By our Itayfiele- correspondent)
The weatherman favoured the
Bayfield Agricultural Society this.
year and the fall fair lived up to
the slogan, "Bigger and Better
than Ever." Weil, at least the
inside exhibits were bigger and
better, and though the horse and
livestock entries were down, the
4-H Calf Club, Swine Club, and
Holstein Club entries made up
for it.
When one considers that two
weeks previous to the date, only
one truss for the roof was in posi-
tion, the poultry house not board-
ed in, nor the doors hung (the
windows were put in on Monday
afternoon) one realizes that the
Lions Club and the directors and
members of the agricultural . so-
ciety who turned .out day after
day, often at the expense of their
work at home; accomplished a
very great deal in a very short
time. Hats off to them!
Even after the roof was finish-
ed, the litter and lumber all had
to be cleaned up. Then the picnic
tables on Clan Gregor Square
were collected and put end for
end in the arena; St, Andrew's,
Church loaned some tables; and
as a last resort planks on cement
blocks were used to- display the
entries, It took a truck to move
in the two cupboards for baking
and dairy produce (they were fil-
led to capacity) and six men to

lift each cupboard into place. (And
after the fair all these had to be
carted out and stored again for
the winter.)
Perhaps you and I, gentle read-
er, went to the fair. We admired
the large display of art which
showed off to so much better ad-
vantage in the new building; we
gazed in wonder at the delielous
bi-products of apples; we'd like
to have tasted all the 13 apple
pies entered for a special prize, to
say nothing of all the cakes, etc,;
our mouth watered for the tempt-
ing fruit; the ladies' wear, flowers
and vegetables, we likewise admir,
ed; but it was the splendid school
entries which, literally "took us to
the fair". The fine display augurs
well for the future of the Bayfield
Agricultural Society. All the in,
side entries showed off so much
better in the larger space. But as
we commented on this and that,
did we ever stop to think of how
much was owed to so few for the
success of this fair?
Take for instance the school
sections which were competing for
the shield. Did you stop to think
of all the. work entailed for the
teachers and the mothers who as-
sisted them? The pupils with their.
teachers assembled in Clan Greg-
or Square and, headed by the
Bannockburn Pipe Band, marched
to the grounds to compete in ex-
ercises
xercises and singing games in the
show ring.- We, in Bayfield, felt
Particularly proud of the senior
'and junior rooms of Bayfield Pub-
lic School. (We apologise for blow-
ing our own horn but if we don't
do it no one else will!). The sen-
ior classes under Miss Pepper
were smartly attired as a drum
major and majorette corps in
scarlet costumes trimmed with
gold' and blue, and the junior pup.
ils under Mrs. William E. Parker,
led by a small Queen Elizabeth
and her attendants, wore sashes
and bandeaux of red, white and
blue. These and the other colour-
ful uniforms adopted by the other
schools all added greatly to the
occasion.
School Parade
Children from nine district
schools took part. Just behind
the band marched the 13 pupils of
S.S. 4, Stanley Township, who this
year won the shield
Next year, the arena will be
better equipped but there is a .-
great deal of work to be done on
it and about the grounds before
that time. The old "Crystal Pal-
ace" is to be moved over and join-
ed to the present shed for housing
livestock, Space has to be clear-
ed for machinery and other de-
monstrations outside, and im-
provements made in the layout.
Don't leave it all for "George" to
do! Even if you aren't a Lion or
a member of the Agricultural So-
ciety, get behind this community
project. If you cannot give a few
hours work when it is needed,
give your financial support. Help

This game was all Clinton from
the opening kickoff. The Redmen
completely dominated the play
throughout the game and it was
only the stellar defensive play of
Goderich that kept the score from
reaching a much higher figure.
Mid -way through the opening
quarter Clinton took the lead
When Bruce Ashdown fired a
long pass to Ron Carter who went
over unmolested for the major
score. This touchdown was not
converted and at the end of the
quarter Clinton led 5-0.
In the second quarter Bill Shar-
key scored another TD for Clinton
to make it 11-0 but near the end
of the half Goderich entered the
scoring column when Carter was
rouged. Half time score 11-1.
Ron Carter took the opening
kickoff and gave one of the best
displays of open field running seen
this year as he lugged the ball
hack to the mid -field stripe. Barry
Youngblut scored the only touch
down of the quarter and Bob El-
liott converted.
Late in the game Bob Dockstad-
er scored for Goderich as the
county town put on a belated
rally. Bob Riese one of the God-
erich stars was injured late in
the game.
Nine Clinton cheerleaders and
four from Goderich added colour
to the game as they urged their
respective teams on to greater ef-
fort.
