By MRS. F. SUMMERS The scout Hall was filled to capacity Friday and Saturday nights for their Variety Show. Sunday afternoon's performance was supposed to be just for Perth County scouts and cubs but an overflow from the ticket sales were accommodated Sunday. The program consisted of a series of skits, interspersed with camp songs and a guitar solo by Jeff Lemon. The skits depicted a "Prehistoric Steauty Contest", "Choosing the Easter Bunny", "A Real Estate office in Mother Goose Land", "The Strongest Element " and "The Foam Ranger", put on by the leaders. It was a hilarous comedy; a mixed up western and a sea drama. A special thanks to Michael O'Shea who was the M.C. and kept things moving between acts with the odd story, and provided the background music and piano accompaniments for the whole show. Leaders Ben Kop, Ron Rose and cub leader Doreen McRobert and her assistants Pat Harlton, Gloria Riddell and Audrey Westman, deserve a lot of credit for the effort they put into the production of this.
