"I proved I can make it and I don't think I'd bother again," he stated. Report Uncomplete Unfortunately the names and fate of some of the other walkers is not known, but it is reported at least three others made it as far as Wingham. These were Tom Mountford, Fred Gregory and Louis Van- Lammeren, Four girls who competed ap- parently didn't have too much hoop of completing the trek al- though they all put up a valiant effort. Susan and Sharon Brown, apparently working on a $1.00- a - mile basis on a bet with their father, made it to their expected destination of Lon- desboro. Emma Gregory a n d Gretta VanLammeren didn't quite match the stamina of their brothers in the feat, making it only as far as Belgrave. Others who started in the walk were Jeff Dixon, Clinton; Dean Reid, Adastral Park and Rick Wager, Clinton. It is not known how far these chaps went before they decided they would be better off home in bed. The mark set by Verhoef and Muise was average in compar- ison with other such walks across the country, but it was far oft the record of just a little over nine hours. The local walk was organized by students from CHSS but was not recognized as a school activity. Several car loads of students were on hand to see the walk- ers off at Clinton and kept up a vigil back and forth along the highway until about 3.00 a.m, when most Went home and left the youths to face the lonely night by themselves. Only prize for the finishers was their personal satisfaction and some sore feet. IT mar Two ro mem Gam Zrasoor • MOWER TO GET MoRRED ft • ALUMINUM WINDOWS ALUMINUM DOORS ALUMINUM AWNINGS RUSSELL L.

Band Performs After a tour of the Dominion Road and Machinery plant at Goderich, the Prime Minister and his official party were es- corted to the Goderich Colle- giate by the Clinton Concert and Marching Band under the direction of George Wonch. Bob Huard led the procession with ills colour party following be- hind, their flags waving gaily in the breeze and the sun glisten- ing from their poles. The gymnasium at the school was jammed to capacity and part of the audience had to sit in an adjacent room to listen to the speeches. Jim Donnelly chaired the pro- gram and speakers included: Roberts; MacNaughton and El- ston Cardiff, as well as the fea- tured performer, Diefenbaker. Mrs. Diefenbaker, Mrs. C. S. MacNaughton and Mrs. May Mooney, Goderich deputy-reeve, were each presented with cor- sages by a set of Goderich trip- lets and Donnelley's daughter. The Prime Minister, despite his arduous campaign,iappeared quitte fresh and brought rounds of laughter and applause with his jibes at the Liberal oppos- ition and members of the press. At one time he leaned for- ward on the podium and it mov- ed forward as well. He quickly stepped back and reported he better be careful or he would be down in the audience. Looking down at the press table directly in front of him, he pointed a finger and jokingly noted, "it I go down crashing it will be on the press." The Prime Minister outlined many of his party's policies and repeated his frequent statement that the "oposition" had only been interested in obstructing his government in the last par- liament. After naming the local can- didate "Lew" (Cardiff) as an autstanding representative, he said he wanted "my friend back in parliament." He ended his speeeh on ;humorous note, reporting the Liberals wanted a "stable" gov- ernment "If they want a stab- le government they should be kept out op the pasture a little longer." he stated. He said the best example of a stable government was when the Liberals had horses on their payroll at Camp Pettawawa. Tri his brief remarks, Cardiff listed some of the area's ac- complishments and noted the extensive work undertaken on the harbors at Goderieh, Bay- field and Grand Bend. He also listed several post offices that had been built in the area and reported the Clin- t ton building would start "very soon," stating the delay had been caused because a suitable location could not be found to suit the taxpayers. Another speaker at 'the event was Goderich mayor, Ernie Fish- er. who opposed Cardiff in the federal election last June. He paid tribute to the work of Cardiff and MacNaughton, saying he wanted to give credit where credit is due. "I would have been more re- luctant to do this nine months ago," he jokingly explained. 0 'Love' Topic Of Ontario Street UCW Devotions Ontario Street UCW, Group One met on Tuesday, April 8 with the president, Mrs. George Potter presiding, The meeting opened by sing- ing a hymn after which Mrs. Herd took the devotions topic, "Love".
