Homecoming committee helps to realize Bill Pinder's dream BY JEAN ROSS A few years ago Bill Pinder had a dream to have a Seaforth home- coming. Since that time a group of people have committed themselves to having that dream come true in memory of Bill. Planning has been on going for over two years with Joe Swifter and Carolanne Doig co- chairing monthly (now twice a month) meetings at the High School. All organizations and groups are working together to co- ordinate and coincide their events to make this a memorable occasion. Ken and Lois Moore report more than 1250 invitations have gone out to former residents and relatives. Already there have been over 300 replies. Ken said they are still accepting names and sending out invitations. Because there have been some minor changes, an updrited calendar of events will be available closer to reunion time. Entries are being accepted for the Beard Growing (contest at O'Brien's Barber shop Registration is $5. You must be clean shaven to enter. There will be different cat- egories. At this time of 'equal rights', it is hoped the women will be most understanding. Souvenirs are available at Bessie Broome's Hobby Shop; Stedman's and Sills Hardware. Hopefully this occasional column will help to keep everyone up to date on the reunion plans. Seaforth Homecoming takes place August 3-6, 1995. Jean Ross will be writing stories about the upcoming Homecoming, August 3-6.

"We spray preplant incorporated, post, and also pre emergent. I like to get a little bit done ahead of time, and that gives me more flexibility for the length of the spraying time. PPI and post give you a longer season for spraying, too," Don says. "I'm really happy with the results PURSUIT has provided" Don and his wife, Marie, farm 800 acres in Sebringville. And they've been using PURSUIT since they started growing soybeans. "In the last few years, we got triazine- resistant weeds and velvetleaf under control. We're really pleased with PURSUIT." DON BRUBACHER, SEBRINGVILLE, ONTARIO GIVES ME MORE REOBILITY FOR SPRAYII* TIME' A PURSUIT program gives top soybean growers like Don Brubacher the widest application window of any product out there - a full seven weeks from early preplant to post emergent. With PURSUIT'S unbeat- able flexibility, they're in control of the spray timing and method that sults the way they grow beans. And with their choice of a PURSUIT tank -mix, they can create a program that controls the unique mix of weeds on their acres. - Performance. Consistency. Flexibility. That's what control's all about. iirsw herbicide CONTROL ABCNE AU. arf ONSIN /MIO cyanamid Corrado In,.Is.the Ikenvr melte ngtsleml trademark.
