We cyclists may have had to dip into our reserves of energy, but it was the sponsors who put out the cash for the effort. Most of them had already made their contribution to the cam- paign but they were willing to dig down a, little deeper for the cause. I'm convinced that it will be this spirit of 'digging a little deeper' on the parts of many, many people , . be it for money, energy, or time, that will one day bring about the break-through which will defeat cancer, one of the oldest and most dreaded diseases to plague mankind. We can't list the hundreds of sponsors who 'went another mile' when they contributed to the Ladies'-Grea t-Ride-f or-Ca nc er but we can name the riders who went the 15 miles, and who iced the cancer campaign cake with about $1,500. These people thereby, get on my personal honor role: Kathleen Green, Shirley Grigg, Marguerite McLeod, Mary Thompson, Betty Wedlake, Elaine Baynham, Pauline Brintnell, Norma Brintnell, Kay Anderson, Judy Kraft, Pat Cross, Ann Bell, Debbie Newby, Marlene Parsons, Jean Mills, Velma Carroll, Mary Ford, Georgina Webster, Sue Blommaert, Doreen Kirk. Included in the list are the 'reasonable facsimiles' who added fun and interest to the show: Norm Whiting, Dave Cross, Gernot Dauber, and Ross Haugh. + + + Miss McGhee from the Cen- tralia College has informed me that in order that mothers may arrive home before their school children, the June summer courses offered at the college will cut off at 11:40 a.m. sharp. We are very fortunate, in this area, to have a college so close at hand to offer courses for local ladies and girls through the summer months. The staff at Centralia is second to none, and being able to take advantage of their instruction should prove a boon to the people who sign up. Come to the Membership Tea TUES.,2:301111AY 11 p.m . Well, the big ride-for-cancer is over, and I'm not one of those who's saying it was a breeze! As a matter of fact, I expect to be sitting very little in the next several days. Maybe this is one way of separating the toughies from the softies for about three-quarters of the way back to Dashwood I was sure I'd only make it on a stretcher. It was a 'fight' for cancer, alright. What appeared to be a spring zephyr before we started, came on like a 90 mile gale once we got past the shelter of the cemetery trees. And after two miles out, a knoll with an incline of five degrees loomed like the steepest of hills, while the rise up past Riddell's farm appeared to be an un- surmountable, ten-mile-high mountain. The fog began to roll in, and I started having trouble seeing the other riders, the cars zooming up for and aft, not to mention the road in front of me, I was really alarmed at the density until I stopped for coffee and a fellow cyclist suggested I wipe the steam off my glasses. Eureka . . . one swipe of the Kleenex and two-thirds of the fog dispelled. Having had my vision cleared and my cockles warmed by the coffee, I took heart and started off once more. It was rough, but by chanting 'fight-for-cancer, f ight-f or-ca - ncer, , fight-for-cancer' and singing 'Daisy, Daisy' I was able to whip my flagging muscles to Dashwood's main un- tersection. Bless Mrs. Ivan Grigg, one of the riders of the week before, who opened up her house in Dashwood for 13 damp and chilled riders, and revived them with steaming hot drinks and donuts. When I fell off my bike at her door (I've never learned how to mount or dismount properly) I felt like I was walking on air. That was because there was no feeling left in my legs. Believe me, it's a scary thing to look down and see your feet moving as if they belonged to somebody else. Everyone tried to cheer me up by saying the trip back would be a cinch. Well, any fool knew it couldn't get worse! And actually, it wasn't bad. Except that, the fog and the steam got me lost. My one thought, on leaving Dashwood, was to make it to the top of the hill at Riddell's so I could enjoy the long coast down. But, although the biking wasn't too difficult it appeared that the hill was a much greater distance out of the village than I remembered. Finally, and quite suddenly, the trees at the cemetery corner came in view, and I realized I had left the hill several miles back without even noticing it. I was on the home stretch! From there, it was straight on to the finish line, and the home to lower my pummelled muscles into a luxurious, scented, hot bath. We take off our hats to husbands and friends who came out to cheer and encourage us, or who drove in front or behind to protect us through the fog on the return trip. It was a good, tough ride and the 24 persons who pumped the course on the two Sundays are. to be commended. However, it is their sponsors who are the unsung heroes. Without them the ride would have Hospital Auxiliary Room - Anne St. Entrance MR. AND MRS.
