Cuties flirt, but lose
On Saturday evening, the
California Cuties tripped into
Lucan to flirt with the Lucan
rec league “All Stars.”
United
Church
andCatherine, Cheryl
Bojinie Lynn provided
special music at morning
worship at Lucan United
Church singing a trio, “Go
Tell (Everyone.”
Mr. Brown concluded his
series on “How to Live the
Christian Life” with a ser
mon on the theme “How to
Witness for Christ”,
“Modern day Christians,
just like those of the first
century, are called to
witness for Christ not only
by the quality of their lives
but by their words,” said
Mr. Brown.
Early Christians were
motivated by the joy they
experienced in sharing life’s
greatest discovery with
others, and by their desire to
obey Christ’s command to
do so. Their awareness of
the leading and enabling of
the Holy Spirit and their ex
perience of God’s love and
concern for people
everywhere also contributed
to their faithfulness in
witnessing,
Modern day Christians
should be similarly
motivated. Christians can
share with others their own
experience of receiving
Christ as Lord and Saviour
and the difference He makes
in their lives. They can tell
how the promises and
guidance of Scripture have
proved true and dependable
in their own lives, how God
answers prayer, and how
God’s guidance and power
have become real to them.
While Mr. Brown is on
holiday in August, services
will be conducted by lay
men of Lucan congregation.
Next Sunday Ed and Freeda
Melanson are in charge. The
Prayer and Share
Fellowship meets August 3.
17 and 21 in the C.E. wing at
9:45 a.m. All ladies of the
community are warmly in
vited.
The “all stars” were
dazzled by their splendidly
dressed opponents and
seemed to have trouble
keeping their mind and eyes
on the game, never knowing
what these pert flirts would
do next.
Even the umpires couldn’t
control themselves as was
shown when one of them
stripped a lady. A ball was
the order of the evening and
everyone soon got into the
swing of things.
Little Suzie managed to
get between the legs of “her”
choice Wrecker and Madam
Hilda not to be outdone tried
to seduce some of the
“Stars” off the diamond with
her winning ways.
The California Cuties have
been a team for over thirty-
one years. Madam Hilda a
one time member of one of
an American Force , first
started the team to entertain
•the overseas troups in
Guam. The names of the
players and their positions
are; C-Hefty Helen, P-
Dumpy Dora, lst-Wilma the
Whip, 2nd-Little Suzie, SS-
Main Street Sally, 3rd-
Heada Hooker, LF-Swingin
Sheila, CF-Fifi the Flirt and
RF-Lotta Fanny. The
manager is Madam Hilda.
The “California Cuties” will
be back in the London area in
August so watch for them in
London, August 27, Port
Colborne (August 31),
Orangeville, Lambeth and
Southwold.
Dan Gwalchmai a coach of
the “All Stars” says The
California Cuties “were very
good opponents, we just got
lucky and hit to open spots in
the field.” Playing for the
Rec League were; Brian
Noyes, Steve Hasking, Rick
Freeman, Gary Wilcox,
Gary Isaac, Don Smith, Ted
Ouimet, Ron Glen, Brad
Taylor, Scott Anderson,
Greg Revington, Pete
Revington, Keven Gilmour
and Pat Ryan. The second
coach was Wess Hickson.
At the bottom of the fourth
the score was 5-3 for the All
Stars. There were over 350
spectators and the proceeds
from the game will go to the
“Booster Club” to be used at
the arena.
The Rec league has had a
very tight schedule this year.
Four teams, the Alice St.
Mauraders, Biddulph Boys,
Hearn Walloy and England’s
Auto Body are fighting for
first place. Playoffs start the
week of August 28. For the
spectators the booth at the
ball park has a new french
fryer machine and a new pop
corn machine.
The Ontario Ministry of
Housing has informed the
village of Lucan that the
proposed new official plan is
nearing final approval.,
A letter read at Tuesday
night’s regular council
meeting said, “it is a well
written, well documented
plan and needs only one
minor modification.”
Councillor Norm Steeper
commented, “This is the
first time the Ministry has
received an official plan
application that required so
few changes.”
The only change necessary
was to redesignate the
property owned by Allan
Scott on the east side of
Queen Street from
agriculture to industrial.
This change will allow the
development of a bulk
storage building.
The subject property is
immediately adjacent to an
industrial designation and
the building represents an
expansion of an existing
operation. The intended use
is a bulk storage operation
no
cost of the curbs and gutters
on the east side of Beech
Street from existing paved
area near Whitfield acres to
Kent Street and half of the
asphalting costs, i
Council voiced no ob
jection on a planning board
recommendation that an
application from Dr. W.
Locke for severance of parts
of lots 5 and 6, Frank Street
be approved.
At the same time council
tentatively approved a
request from George Young
to sever 6.5 acres of land in
the Chesnut Street area.
In the discussion, reeve
Ivan Hearn said, “Except

The main wall of the new
building will be ap
proximately 111 feet from
the property boundary of the
nearest residence.
At the same time, coun
cillor Norm Steeper sub
mitted plans of contractor
Ted Giesen to erect an ex
tension to the Lucan
Pharmacy owned by Sam
Mirza.
The permit is being
granted provided the
building be constructed 10
feet from the rear lot line
and in such a manner that it
does not obstruct sewer
easements and a 10 inch
sleeve be provided for the
existing watermain under
the proposed building.
Clerk Ed Melanson
reported that the village has
received a cheque in the
amount of $40,000 as an
accountable advance under
the Ontario Home Renewal
Plan.
, Based on the 1977
population figure of 1,540,
LuCan could be eligible for a
total of $59,378.40, but, the
letter indicated only $20
million was available for the
entire province and the
advance could possibly
represent 100 percent of the
1978 grant.
After considerable
discussion, permission was
given to Frank Hardy to
receive water from the
village supply for a new
house he is erecting in
Biddulph township.
A stipulation was made
that only one water service
be provided to the property
in question within three
years of the signing of the
agreement. At the present
time a water service is in an
older dwelling on the same
property.

One of the Village O.P.P.
spotted a dog running loose
Friday and notified Howard
Currie, the Lucan animal
control officer. After a chase
Mr. Currie finally ran the
dog down on William Street.
The dog panicked when
Mr. Currie tried to pick it up
and went into a biting frenzy.
The noise from the dog at
tracted several people, few
of whom were sympathetic
towards the duties of a
council appointed animal
control officer.
To control a dog with out
damage to the dog or the
person one must pick the dog
up by the back of the neck.
This is what he did, and was
maligned for it by some
unknowledgeable persons.
With the help of Sheliy
Ames who got his truck, and
a cage from the Currie
Kennels the dog was finally
confined. Mr. Currie
received many bad bites to
his right hand, several deep
bites to his left hand and
legs.
A tetanus shot has been
administered and hopefully
rabies shots will not be
necessary. The owner of this
fox terrier typedog is still
unknown. The dog is
currently being held at the
London Humane Society
under observation for rabies.
I’m sure many Lucan
Mothers would want to thank
Mr. Howard Currie for
removing this hazard from
the reach of their children.
