By SID DALEY To find Legion branch news these days is like trying to find hen's teeth and when something does happen that is news worthy, the last chap to hear about it is, you guessed it, the Branch P.R.O. I suppose it was ever thus. By chance, I dropped into the Sea, Land and Air Lounge the other day and by the same method learned that Branch 540 entered a team in the Royal Canadian Legion Zone A 5 Horseshoe pitching tournament, emerged the champions and were presented with the corresponding trophy, which will be kept by Branch 540 for the ensuing year after which the Champs will be called upon to defend their Championship. Our congratulations to the Zone A 5 champions who ever you are. Next time let your P.R.O. know what is going on so that your achievements can be properly recorded and maybe photographed. When you have a moment, why not drop over to the Sea, Land and Air Lounge for a visit. The atmosphere is always pleasant and your Comrades happy to welcome you. Incidentally did you know our Amiable Steward Carl has learned a few magic tricks. His latest trick is turning himself into an Arab. Not too difficult when you know how — eh Carl. Seeing the holiday period is upon us a few driving tips would seem to be in order: Have you checked your spare tire lately? Don't neglect to do so since you can never tell when you may need to use it. It takes foresight to be a good driver. The driver who can size up a situation and then act promptly and correctly, is the driver who stays out of trouble. Your rear-view mirror is a safety device. Use it often.
