FOR THE CHILDREN - Money raised through the sale of
Nevada tickets has enabled Seaforth Community Hospital to
purchase a `croupette', or pediatric aerosol tent, for treating
children with respiratory problems. Here, Chief Executive
Officer Bill Thibert stands with the equipment along with
Janet Haak, owner of Janet's County Donut Cafe. The cafe
has sold the tickets which have raised more than $9,100 this
year for this equipment. The new unit replaces an older unit.

Residents go fishing
"Gone Fishing." That was
the highlight of the week a
Queensway Nursing Home
when nineteen travelled to
Gascho's Park near Zurich
Thursday, August 17 for a
picnic and fishing trip. The
luck was good as five people
caught fish. Mildred Gingerich
said "It was a first for me.
I've never caught a fish
before." Residents used min-
nows for bait and some were
so big it made them think
they'd caught something. Pearl
Eyre said this brought back
many memories of picnics her
family had at parks. Tom
Slavin said, "I can't remember
t the last time I caught a fish."
Catch and release was the
order of the day, so there were
no fish to clean.
Everyone enjoyed the picnic
lunch and lemonade and they'd
love to go again. Thanks to
Ken and Della Gascho for
welcoming everyone. Thanks
also to Rose Erb for helping
bait hooks and making sure
fish were released safely. Rita
Atkin, Joyce Bailey, and Elva
Forrest•were a great help serv-
ing lunch and assisting resi-
dents. A great day!
Team saddened by
loss of Bucky
cont. from front page
Whyte stuck to his story,
however, throwing suspicion
for the "heinous crime" on a
rival team. The last game at
which Bucky appeared was
against Custom Arts.
Throughout the game, members
of the Custom Arts squad
could be seen quietly talking
and pointing at Bucky, Whyte
said.
The bear was last seen on
Sunday, August 5 drinking a
Canadian beer at the Seaforth
Apartments, just outside the
door of Sue Elliott, girlfriend
of A's captain Bob Rhynard.
"Sue says if she ever gets
Bucky back, she'll never leave
him outside again," Whyte
said.
Bucky was a social animal,
attending every game, riding
shotgun around town with
Rhynard and sticking out of the
T -roof, partying with the team
after victories. Since Bucky's
disappearance, Rhynard has
BLUEWATER
CABINETS & TRIM LTD.
,w
changed his insurance over to
his four -door winter car,
refusing to drive without his
sidekick.
Rhynard's signature style of
hitting is to foul off numerous
balls before hitting a home run
but since the bearnapping he •
has been unable to hit any foul
balls, let alone home runs,
Whyte said.
The team misses Bucky so
'much, they have offered a
reward of one six-pack of beer
to anyone providing infor-
mation that leads to his
recovery. .
The A's have a history of
bad luck with mascots. Their
pink raccoon Stinky disap-
peared after last season.
"Stinky's disappearance
wasn't so mysterious. He was
looking pretty rough," Whyte
explained.
The team is against finding
another mascot.
"We're going to keep looking
for Bucky," Whyte said.

Jazz liturgy returns to
Grand Bend church
BY PATRICK RAFTIS
SSP News Staff
For a church service with a
beat, by the beach, you can't
beat the popular jazz liturgies
presented annually in recent
years at the Grand Bend United
Church.
The first jazz liturgy in
Grand Bend was held in 1985.
Since 1992, the church has
staged one each summer.
The liturgy, featuring original
'music by local composer Norm
Tufts, of Southcott Pines, is
based on the parable of The
Good Samaritan.
The liturgy (the same one
presented in Grand Bend last
summer) was first performed at
Olivet United Church in
Hamilton in 1989. That ser-
vice was telecast and shown
four times on Vision T.V. in
1989 and four times in 1990.
CBC presented the liturgy once
in 1989 and again in 1990 and
1993.
"To get something well aired
more than once on CBC, you
can imagine that doesn't hap-
pen all the time," said Tufts,
who has written five separate
jazz liturgies, which have been
performed a total of 10 times.
Music for the local service on
August 27 at 11 a.m. will be
performed by members of the
Can -Am Orchestra, conducted
by Tufts, with vocals by Leona
Sellers, the orchestra's regular
vocalist.
• Tufts was introduced to the
jazz liturgy format by legend-
ary composer, the late Duke
Ellington, who originated the
jazz liturgy and wrote and
performed several in the 1960s
and '70s.
Tufts said Ellington con-
sidered the jazz liturgy "one of
the most important contribu-
tions he made as a composer
and band leader. The church
and jazz had become diametri-
cally opposed and he saw this
as a way of bringing things
back together."
Composing a jazz liturgy, "is
a matter of sitting down and
reading the scripture passages
and setting it to music," said
Tufts, who wrote both the
music and the vocals for the
upcoming liturgy.
Tufts said the liturgies have
become quite popular and the
outdoor (weather permitting)
service attracted about 350
people last year. Staging a
jazz liturgy can be an expens-
ive proposition, said Tufts,
noting that the Can -Am
Orchestra members who will
be appearing are some of the
top jazz musicians in North
America, who must be paid
union scale for the perform-
ance. Still, there's no admis-
sion charge, although the usual
Sunday collection plate is
passed.
The service gets underway at
11 a.m. on Sunday, August 27.

This elegant two storey, designed for a lot with rear lane access, boasts a fashionable stucco exterior with feature windows and a dramatic high
arched entrance.
Enter through double doors into the foyer which is open to the second storey and brightened by an overhead window. French doors lead into a
sunken living room featuring a stylish vaulted ceiling. An open plan for the living and dining room creates a spacious atmosphere for entertaining,
and a sliding pocket door in the dining room closes this area off from the noisy hustle bustle of the kitchen. The kitchen has an efficient working lay-
out with ample cupboard and counter space and a pantry. An open counter allows one to look into the nook and enjoy the natural sunlight pouring in
from surrounding windows. The family room•provides plenty of room to arrange furnishings and features a cosy gas fireplace. A den, just inside the
front entrance, would make an ideal home office.
Upstairs, all three bedrooms arc a good size. The games room shows a rough -in for a closet if a fourth bedroom is preferred. The master features a
walk-in closet, and a five piece ensuite with double sinks and a raised swirl tub.
Plans for U-854 may be obtained for 1475.00 for a package of five complete sets of working prints and 145.00 for each additional set of the same
plan. Allow 115.00 extra to cover the cast of postage and handling (B.C. residents add applicable sales tax to plan total) (All Canadian residents add
7% GST to plan total plus postage and handling).
