Tie exists for Tops queen Fun night was recently held by the Lucan Streamliners, with eight members present and co- leader Mrs. Don McRobert pre- siding, Mrs. Gary McKenzie and Mrs. Harry Bond were in charge of the bingo.

On June 26, both leader and co- leader were absent so Mrs. Gary McKenzie presided. The weigh-in showed an equal gain and loss. Mrs. Leo Corrigan, a consistent loser, had the great- est loss so was named “Queenof the Week." During the business session a number of weight-losing summer activities were discussed as well as a number of projects that Members of the club could do.

BREAKS ARM Owing to the continuous rain every day last week, Field Day events for the Bicidulph Central and the Lucan schools could not be held outdoors as usual so as many events as possible were held in the Biddulph Central gym- torium, resulting in a number of falls. Julie Hardy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Hardy, a Grade 8 pupil attempted a high jump and fell, breaking her left wrist.

There are just two more weeks of racing after this one for our old birds. The one race we had this week was from Tweed, 222 miles. The other was from St. Jerome, Que- bec (400 miles). At the Tweed race there were 10 lofts shipped 78 birds from Lucan. Gord Hardy went with the truck on Friday night. He had to hold the birds until 8 am because of fog at Tweed. As I mentioned last week, Jack Hardy's birds do not like to get wet. Well this kind of training has paid off for him. He had a little blue hen home just ahead of a heavy rain storm on Saturday. She was ahead of the next birds by 4 minutes. This is the hen that has been home first to Jack every time he has sent her on her last seven starts. When you hear of 1403, you do not think of a date in history but rather of a little hen that really must like to fly. We had a new member taking a look around on Friday evening. Jim Hodgins, son of. Constable '*Doll" Hodgins was at the club hous'e to see how we do the bask- eting etc.rWe let him run the band- ing machine which puts the rubber bands on the birds' legs. I am sure after banding 78 birds if someone tells him of a person who is pigeon-toed, he will be sure to know what they look like. He also thinks Mike Culbert's birds had dirty toe nails. When the results were in they finished as follows: Jack Hardy, Willy Vanneste (second and third), Jack Hardy (fourth, fifth and six- th), Willy (seventh), Dwight Hend- erson (eighth) — at this point the prize money ran out. All the rest of us M. Culbert, Norm Hardy, Clarence Hardy, Chuck Barrett, M. Eggett and Bill Ennis got a cold from running to the coop in the rain. The other race was from St. Jerome. These birds were up at 9:30 a.m. They flew all day Sat- urday in rain and wind With the odd thunder storm thrown in for sound effects. The sun set On Saturday night and so did all the bird watchers in Liman. Then they sat looking into the east with bloodshot eyes but no birds. The bloodshot eye bit came from looking too long. It couldn't be from anything else because of the strike. Sunday morning before the sun was tip over the horizon (at 5:38 am to be exact) along came a bird to the loft of Willy Vanneste. As far as We can figure it must Mitchell picnic at Exeter park Over '75 deseendants of the late Mr. and Mrs: Themes Mit- chell held their annual reunion at Riverview Park, Exeter, Sun- day. Lucan was represented by Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Hodgins and sob. During the business session, ken Hodgins was named presid- ent for next year and Mrs. Don Ian e, London was elected see- tetery,treasilrer. Mr. and MrS. Gerald O'Neil, RR 1 Belton were In charge of the Sperts. BIRTHDAY PARTY A Surprise birthday party was held Stinday. for Mrt. EttieStkciSS b3 t2 ineinberS Of her faintly at the home of het son, J. Ca SIMI), Seri. Otte Of the highlights Of the „ afternoon was aty old-fashioned game of etotpiet. A 01Cille lunch 'vas enjoyed by alL OORREOTION It was Gr. VII pupils not Gr. Vat of laiddulph School, Who went on the 'bus trip to Kitchener. have been on Tom Gilmour's silo the night before. Willy was of course right there to clock it and get first position. At 6;41 am he got his second bird which was good enough for second in the club. The under statement of the year would be to say that Willy was pleased. He was in fact so pleased he just stood there with a grin on his face and said "I must be slipping a bit because I had first, second and third at the last 400". This hen was the one that won him the 400 a month ago. This is indeed an exceptional bird. That will be another trophy for the Vanneste collection. After Willy had looked after the first two positions the re- sults were as follows: three, Clarence Hardy; four, Jack Hardy; five, Clarence Hary; six- th, Jack Hardy; seventh, Ron Rowland, Mitchell club; eighth, Clarence. Hardy; ninth, Norm Hardy; tenth, Clarence Hardy. After the tenth position the prize money was all used up so the also-rans in order of finish were Mert Culbert, T&G loft, Dwight Henderson, Bill ' Ennes, M. -Eggett and Chuck Barrett. There was only one consola- tion for the Culbert loft from both races. They had the first bird after the money had run out. Next week we go to the 500. Dwight Henderson is walking his little bird on a string every evening just so she will be in shape to take this one. U he can win two 500 mile races with the same bird he will have a better average than Willy's 400 miler. The best of luck to both of you. WEIGHT WATCHERS MEETING The Weight-watchers' meet- ing last week took the forth of a walk to the Lucan Public School and back. They had hoped to see Field Day activities but owing to the rain and the wet grounds nothing could be held out of doors. , - e
