more even, 18-22.
Lucan's future games are as
follows: July 24, Lucan atLieury;
July 31, Lucan at Nairn; August
6, Lucan at Ailsa Craig; August
12, Parkhill at Lucan; and Aug-
ust 19, Nairn at Lucan.
MANY THANKS
Many thanks to Jim Davis of
the Davis Hardware and George
Young of Young's Dry Goods who
each consented to place a news
box in his store.
The latter store has the most
ideal corner (just inside the door)
so a box has been placed there.
With all group activities dis-
continued for the summer usual-
ly news is scarce during July
and August. Weddings, showers,
funerals and pigeons have all
assisted this year but August
may still be quiet. Everyone is
asked to lend a hand, by de-
positing names of visitors, fam-
ily gatherings and any item of
interest in the news box. Well up in the judging
While only three prizes were awarded in the judging competition held during the International Week play-
ground parade, many others caught the eyes of the judges and received honorable mention. Shown above
are, Stanley Robbins, Grace Dykstra, Debbie Lindenfield and Tracy Johnston. — T-A photo
