"SCOTTY" HUME a.m. The activities will be held Recreation Director Last week I wrote through the medium of this paper something I thought the town shouldknow about its people, and its sup- port, I meant no reflection on anyone but since that time I have hadseveral remarks made to me, some in favor, and some not so favorable. I am wonder- ing if the truth slightly hurts. I have been given to under- stand that the town people like to keep the business in town, and keepsticking together ,in all activities. I hope this same feeling materializes this winter in all the arena activities. I feel like our Good Lordfelt when they crucified him, and spat at him, and rejected him. That's the way it has been since last week's letter. He could not please everybody when he was on earth, so I guess there is no sense in trying rnyself. Let's all pull together and not against one another. This week the recreation com- mittee is sending two girls to Goderich to camp from June 20 to 27, to help with the playground activities which I am hoping to start on June 30, which will be registration day starting at 9 every day from 9 to 12 a,m. ex- cept Saturday and Sunday, Last Saturday our minor base- ball team had a game with Clin- ton which they won 11 to 1, Con- gratulations boys. Also our pee wee team, which played last. Monday, won. Congratulations to them also. I noticed a better supporting cast at the games, let's keep it up folks. I know the spirit of Hensall is here, evenif it has lacked support in the past years. Let's put Hensall back onthe map with softball games and baseball games and other acti- vities. The pee wee team has been asked to enter the pee wee tour- nament in St. Thomas on July 1. If anyone is interested in taking some of these boys to St. Tho- mas on July 1 kindly get in touch with me at the arena or at 247W. We need four cars, I think it's an honour to have been asked to participate in this tournament, so let's get behind the boys, and send thein, When the hockey starts this fall, we will have the dressing room floors covered with can- vas to protect the players' skates.
