cruiser was already out of the

making use of the change rooms
and sanitary facilities of the
school was also suggested.
RAP gave the swimming pool
instructors permission to attend
a swim meet in Mt, Forest in
August, and to close the pool for
at least a portion of the day if
necessary.
Exeter has built up quite a
presentable swim team and the
need for timers and other of-
ficials necessitates that all in-
structors from the Exeter pool
attend the regional meet in Mt,
Forest. They were thus in-
structed to try to find qualified
life guards to watch the pool, but
if not successful, to close it.
It was reported that the
swimming classes are ac-
commodating one third more
youngsters this year than last
because of the three, three-week
programs. The second class,
being presently conducted, is
almost filled, and it was noted
that many people have already
registered for the third and final
session of lessons.
RAP employee Gary Middleton
told the committee that he has
received several requests for
outlets in the park. RAP
promised to look into the
situation.
It`was also noted that there are
yet no one-way signs on the park
road, and that they should be
erected immediately, especially
for the safety of all the bicyclers
around the pool. This is also to be
followed through.

Country Playhouse is the
perennial favorite musical
comedy, The Fantasticks. The
longest running in New York's
history, the musical first opened
in the fall of 1959 at the Sullivan
Street Playhouse.
Now in its 13th year at the same
theatre, it is still going strong. Its
very familiar songs include
"Soon it's Gonna Rain" and "Try
to Remember,"
The Fantasticks is the first
Playhouse production of a
musical comedy, Putting the
company through its song and
dance paces is Broadway
musical comedy veteran, James
Albright, Musical director is
young London musician, Erna
Van Daele.
Heading up the cast as the two
star struck lovers are Candace
O'Connor and Allan Stratton.
Also featured are Rob Garrison,
Keith Bradley, Shawn Lawrence,
Maurice Evans, Liz Richardson
and Peter Dower.
Setting the happy little musical
is by Tayie Abdel-Rehem.
The Playhouse is going into the
fourth week of the second season,
Attendance at all the plays has
improved over last year's
records.
Attendance at the opening
production this year, Under the
Yum-Yum Tree, topped the best
attendance record from last
year. The Show-off last week's
production, has proved least
popular at the box office with
attendance dropping below the 50
percent mark.
Bus Stop, the second play of the
season, has been the season's hit
thus far with nearly 2/3 capacity
at each of the six weekly per-
