COMING EVENTS Come Out to the COMMENTS Collect Tickets Saturday All bowlers are asked to turn in their unsold banquet tickets by Saturday night, May 2. The tickets will be accepted by any member of the executive or by Rene Francois at the alley. The check is being made to determine the number of bowlers expected at the annual banquet, May 8, Executive members are Dick Jermyn, Alf Andrus, Ken Hockey, Wilf Shapton, Ed Hunter- Duvar and Bob Davis. Disappearing Banquet Complimentary banquet tickets were mailed by secretary Alf An­ drus to all the league's bene­ factors early this month. The early mailing of these tickets seemed a good idea to the execu­ tive but, unfortunately, there was one repercussion. It seems a local trophy donor received his tickets on a Friday in April and, glancing at the date printed thereon, rushed home, hastily donned his black suit, and galloped up to Monetta Menard’s. All the way up the road he mentally rehearsed a little pre­ sentation speech, and practised a few murmurs of modest assen­ tion in case he was thanked for his donation by the bowling as­ sociation executive. He arrived about ^15, figur­ ing he was about 15 minutes late. Much to his surprve, he found the dining room strangely void, ■and a thorough search of the club uncovered not one bowler. The rascals, he thought. They have changed the location of the banquet and forgotten to tell me! Just in case, he hauled out his ticket and examined it again. No, lie wasn’t mistaken. There it was plainly printed; “Monetta Men­ ard’s, 7:00 p.m., Friday, May 8 . . . MAY 8?” A trifle chagrined, he figured he’d better wait another month. Compete At Waterloo Four local bowlers will parti­ cipate in the First Annual Five- Pin Tournament at Waterloo this Friday. Rend Francois, Ken Hoc­ key, Bern McLean and Roger Guay will be the Exetei* bowl­ ers. Bill Chamberlain, well known Ingersoll kegler, will augment the group to a five-man team. They will enter as a team, but will also take part in doubles and singles events. We wish them luck. Pryde Gocth Before The Fall?
