Dear Ann Landers: Please
fix up my letter so it will be
good enough for the news-
paper, I need help awfully bad.
I play on a ball team and
my problem is my mother. She
drives me to all the games. If
I am taken out of a game and
a substitute is brought in my
mother goes over to the man-
ager and swears at him. She
also cusses out the kid who
takes my place and of course
his mother doesn't like that
very much.
I am afraid the manager is
going to get fed up with my
mother and pull me out of the
lineup altogether. Please tell
me what to do about this prob-
lem,—NERVOUS FIRST BASE-
MAN.
Dear Nervous: I have never
known a kid to change his
mother so I am not going to
suggest that you try.
Don't worry about the man-
ager throwing you off the
team. I'm sure he understands
your problem and he will not
punk& you for something that
is not your fault. Maybe one
of these days the manager will
get fed up with your mother
and throw HER out of the
ballpark, which might not be
a bad idea,

Dear Ann: Can a teen-ager
add to that letter about names
and what the people attached
to them are REALLY like?
Since reading bhe adult's letter
I have made a careful study
of names and people and here
are the results of my research:
Girls named Delores, Pris-
cilla and Helen are old-fash-
ioned and shy. Boys named
Harley, Oliver, Fred, Henry
and Douglas are also old-
fashioned and shy. Girls named
Donna, Patty, Elaine, Sue and
Nancy are cute and can have
their choice of boys. Boys who
are cute and can i^ave their
choice of girls are Eddie, Rich-
ard, Paul and Danny.
Boys you don't know but of-
fer you rides in their cars are
usually named Kenny, Roger,
Bob and Jim (you find their
names out later). Thank you.
—KAREN.
Dear Karen: Why don't you
find out FIRST and walk?—
Ann.

Baskets of white glads decor-
ated St. Andrew's Presbyterian
Church and white ribbon bows
marked the guest pews on Sat-
urday, October 8 for the wed-
ding of Sandra Elizabeth Mac-
Donald and James Davey Edgar,
Rev. G. L. Fish officiated,
The bride is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Alex MacDonald
of Wingham and the groom's
parents are Mr. and Mrs. Ken
Edgar of Wroxeter.
Harold Victor Pym was or-
ganist and accompanied Miss
Barbara Hall who sang "The
Lord's Prayer" and "0 Perfect
Love".
Mr. MacDonald gave his
daughter in marriage. She
chose a floor-length gown of
fiesta crepe trimmed with Gui-
pure lace. The detachable
train was trimmed with the
same lace as the dress and her
nylon tulle shoulder-length
veil was held by a wedding ring
band. She carried yellow
Sweetheart roses.
The bride's attendants all
wore identical A-line floor-
length gowns of green fiesta
crepe with empire waistline
trimmed with Guipure lace.
They wore matching wedding
ring headpieces and satin shoes
and carried yellow mums and
white carnations.
Maid of honor was Miss
Carol MacDonald of Wingham;
bridesmaids were Miss Bonnie
MacDonald of Wingham and
Miss Louise Edgar of Wroxeter;
Cindy and Christine MacDonald
of Wingham were flower girls.
The groom's attendant was
Paul Statia of Waterloo and ush-
ers were Hugh MacDonald of
Chatham and Raymond Mac-
Donald of Wingham.
The dinner was served in the
church parlor where the bride's
table was centred with the
three-tier wedding cake and sil-
ver candelabra and the guests
tables were decorated with bou-
quers of fall flowers.
The bride's mother wore a
teal blue two-piece double-
knit suit with black velvet hat,
black shoes and bag and white
gloves. The groom's mother
wore a turquoise and gold bro-
cade dress and jacket, brown
feather hat, brown gloves, shoes
and purse. Each wore a cor-
sage of white carnations.
For the wedding trip to Nor-
thern Ontario Mrs. Edgar wore a
winter green and charcoal three-
piece wool suit with matching
hat, black patent shoes and bag,
white gloves and a corsage of
white carnations.
Children's Aid
Seeks Help
For the Needy
The Huron County Children's
Aid Society is very apprecia-
tive to all the organizations and
individuals who contributed to
their camp project. Through
their generosity 30 children
were able to attend camp this
summer.
Following the precedent set
last year the CAS again is mak-
ing early plans to take care of
needy children at Christmas.
Last year over 500 children
throughout the county were re-
membered.
This project takes many
weeks of planning, wrapping
and delivering. Since much of
this work is done by volunteer
help, an early start is essential.
The public appeal last year for
clothing and donations was most
gratifying, and again the CAS
is asking for help. Children's
clothing, toys, etc., should be
at the Court House, Goderich,
not later than November 1. Or-
ganizations who make an an-
nual donation are asked to dis-
cuss this project at their next
meeting,
Again, the CAS thanks
everyone who in any way helps
the society. The heart-warm-
ing letters from the parents in-
dicate the value of this assist-
ance.
