In the South Middlesex Hockey
league the Lucan Merchants must
feel somewhat out of place, as
they hold down top spot by 3 or 5
points, I'm not sure which it is
as I can't seem to get the stand-
ings of the league but hope to
have this informationfor you next
week This Thursday night Dec, 8
at 7;30 pm it's the concrete pipe
team tangling with the Ilderton
Wild Cats. At 8:30 pm it's Edge-
wood and Lucan. This should be a
pretty rugged game as Edgewood
just found out last Thursday if
they stuck to hockey they could
come up with a winning team.
The final game at 9;30 pm is
the Ailsa Craig team hosting Lee
& Stewart.
Figure skating on Tues. nights
is still very good. If you are still
interested in taking figure skating
it is not too late, just come to
the arena Tues. night at 6;30,
the ladies auxiliary will register
you then.
In minor hockey last Friday
night here at the centre it was
Huron-East vs Ilderton. The
scores were, in pee wee, Huron 7,
Ilderton 1; in bantam this was al-
most reversed as Ilderton won
6-1; in midget it was quite a dif-
ferent story as the Huron team
shut Ilderton out by a score of
4-0,
I would like to see more pre-
school children out on Wed. after-
this year, for the suggestion to

Extend bazaar, tea
due to bad weather
At a joint meeting of the par-
ents and teachers of the Lucan
and 13 i d du 1ph Centre Public
Schools, held in the auditorium
of the latter, last Wednesday
evening, a "Iliddulph Area,
School and Parent Association,"
was organized and officers elec-
ted.

man; vice-presidents, Bruce

retary, Mrs. ciare Stanley;
treasurer, Mrs. Dwight Hender-
son; executive, Mrs. Garfield

A Home and School Association
organized in Lucan March 8, 1951
with Mrs. T. A. Watson as pres-
have the festival every other
year was voted down as such
might create lack of interest and
cause the festival to deteriorate.
The new inspector, F.11, Wilk-
enson was introduced by Mrs.
Freeman and later thanked by
Mrs. Stanley.
Mr. Wilkinson, congratulated
the group on forming an assoc-
iation, but warned the members
of the danger of making the meet-
ings a place to gripe and find
fault. He stressed the importance
of securing good speakers and
of putting on membership drives
rather than children's programs,
even though the latter did bring
parents out.
Many took advantage of the
question and answer period, when
the inspector explained—why the
noons 2.3 pm also moregiris out

Don't forget we have public
skating every Saturday night 8-10
pm and every Sunday afternoon
from 3-5 pm.

LUCAN DISTRICT LIONS CLUB'S
ident, was in operation until Sept.
1966 when the Lucan school be-
came a Jr. school.
A questionnaire sent out to
parents in both schools to ascer-
tain the possibility and advisa-
bility of organizing a joint as-
sociation resulted in 75% of the
parents being in favor. So last
Wednesday's meeting was called
to make the necessary arrange-
ments, However the members
of the committee were most dis-
appointed at the turn-out, for
though 78% of the teachers was
present, yet only 4% of the par-
ents put in an appearance.
Mrs, James Freeman, who was
to have been Lucan's next Home
and School president, presided.
She explained the situation in
Lucan—gave the results of the
questionnaire and reported the
opposition to forming another
Home and School Association.
She explained it was com-
pulsory to send $1.00 of the $1.25
membership fee to the Home and
School council at Toronto and
that Lucan members felt they
received little or no personal
benefit from this council.
It was finally decided to start
from scratch—to discard the old
name and minute book and elect
a new slate of officers with
a $1 membership fee, for run-
ning expenses.
Pros and cons were discussed
as to the new organization, spon-
soring the North Middlesex Music
Festival, which the Lucan Home
and School had done for the past
11 years. Though all the children
in a room received the advantage
of learning new chorus and solos,
yet after the best singers had
been chosen for competition, they
had to be given special training.
Many teachers felt that this time
Ann
TURKEYBINGO
G. W. Sach welcomed the guests,
brave enough to venture out.
The schoolroom never before
looked so resplendent with ela-
borate and unique Christmas dec-
orations, This year the enlarged
schoolroom was given over to
the various bazaar booths while
refreshments were served on
small tables in the new CE
tion.
A bad night didn't prevent the
home-baking and candy-booths
from being sold out early, but
other booths had so much left
over, that it was decided to con-
tinue the bazaar and tea, Satur-
day afternoon, from 3 to 5 p.m.
Radio stations, telephones and
store posters notified the public
that they still had an opportunity
to attend bazaar and tea, There
was a good turn-out Saturday so
together with the Friday night
sales, the 1966 bazaar and tea
proved a financial success.
Cubs are selling
`valuable junk'
Zero weather apparently did
not daunt Lucan cubs for 21 mem-
bers were present last Friday
evening. Owing to the illness of
Scott Leckie, only one boy, Brent
Froats, was invested.
There were no games as Cub-
master, Mrs. Morgan spent the
time reviewing the cub program
and was delighted at how much
the boys remembered.
District commissioner, Stew-
art Taylor of Clinton was pres-
ent. He taught the boys how to
send messages by semaphore.
The boys brought in more val-
uable “junk" to be sold, to raise
funds for attendance at camp
next summer.
Mr. Taylor, accompanied Mrs.
Morgan home, where he con-
gratulated her on having the best
and most enthusiastic pack in the
District of Huron. He also ad-
vised her to complete her Gil-
crest Wood-badge course, which
is the highest scouting course in
Canada.
