Donnelly's of Biddulph". Vazakas, a Hamilton area lawyer who has spent much of his life researching the mid-1800'5 family, said this production which is scheduled to be telecast in February to coincide with the 101st anniversary of the raid by Biddulph Township vigilantes on the Donnelly farm, will be as accurate as it possibly can be in the portrayal of the happenings surrounding the family. The story of the family will be brought to the small PUC completes main proiects The Exeter PUC advised council this week of the completion of several projects. In a letter, Manager Hugh Davis reported the replacement of a fire hydrant at William and Huron and the installation of new hydrants of Riverside between the curling rink and Hillcrest and on the corner of Thames Road and William. The Commission has also completed its eight-inch water main replacement on Thames Road and' William St. "which should greatly improve fire protection in that area". A dead end main on Walper St. has also been eliminated. screen through a. dialogue between Will Donnelly and Father Connolly portrayed by Sean Sullivan years af- terwards and a series of flashbacks. A total of 60 actors will be taking part in the production, Fazakas said. The churchyard is the only location in the Lucan area which is being used because according to the playwright "The church and the graveyard are the only things here which were present at the time of the massacre," Other location shooting will take place at Wentworth and Black Creek pioneer villages with the burning of the Donnelly home to take place at an Oshawa studio. Since the original Donnelly tombstone is no longer in place due to many acts of vandalism, the CBC brought along replicas of several tombstones which could be easily moved. While the original Donnelly tombstone is in the graveyard's north- east corner and was red granite, the replica is a $istening black and located several hundred feet away from the original, As part of his payment on the production, Fazakas will receive the replicas, List winners in bean crops A total of 15 farmers competed in the White Bean Field Crop Competition which is sponsored jointly by the Exeter Agricultural Society and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Judged by Craig Alexander, results showed the top 10 scores were Tom Triebner in first place with 86 points, Elmer Powe 85 points, Bruce Shapton 84, Strang Farms 84, Gordon Jones 82, Wayne Tuckey 81, John Oke 79, Ken Oke 77, Hugh Rundle 77 and Murray Dawson 77.

E. SUMMERS GRANTON The first anniversary service was'held at Granton Community Bible Church, Pastor Glen Fretz's message was entitled "The Church That God Uses." Firstly, God uses a church that guards its spiritual unity by focusing on Christ's death and resurrection. To keep spiritual unity each of us must respect and listen to each others opinions. Secondly, God uses a church governed by spiritual authority. We were challenged to examine lives to see if we have given to the Lord for Ills use everything we normally count as our own. Lastly, God uses a church guided by the spiritual virtues of trust and prayer. While praying, we need to remember that God is even more anxious to bless than we are to receive.
