Chislett play gets nomination
Busy start to month
By Jo-Ann McDonald
April has begun as a busy time at
the Branch.
The Friday night supper of cab-
bage rolls was well attended and this
week is turkey.
Saturday afternoon euchre saw 16
tables of action-packed card players.
The pair of Margaret Carter and
Marg Trevean were high winners
with 78 points. Close behind in sec-
ond place were Jim Coultes and
Glenn Sellers with 75 points and next
with 74 points were Bush Whittard
and Helen. Lone hand winners were
Vera Ahrens and Ed Stewart. The
next euchre is in two weeks.
The Sunday night singles dance
had 100 people enjoy the music of
the Ken Scott Orchestra.. In two
weeks it is Southridge Sound.
April is the month for elections.
The executive needs members and
'without an executive, there is no
Branch. Without members coming
out to show more interest in the
Branch, there is no Branch. There are
over 200 members in this Branch: We
need more involvement by more
members.
We appreciate all the financial aid
that members contribute to the
Branch, but we need people.
Being involved in the executive
makes you one voice on an executive
of 10 voices. All decisions of the
executive must be passed at general
meetings. You do not stand alone, but
we must stand together. April 23 is
the night of elections. We need to
know if there is anyone interested in
the survival of the Brussels Legion.
It's time to step forward and call the
Branch 887-6562 or President Linda
Bird 887-6552 after 4 p.m.
In our continuing efforts to provide
some entertainment at the Branch we
have a Ladies Stag Night with feature
entertainer hypnotist Jeff West per-
forming.
Tickets are $20 available at the
Branch, from members and at the
Variety. Light lunch is available all
evening. Palm readings by Roz are
available by appointment at the
Branch at reasonable rates.

"preferred seats" will cost $3 more
than seats located at the side, the
