Holiday visitors
Dave and Bonnie Roy
entertained friends and
neighbours at a house party
on New Year's Eve.
Bob and June Webster and
girls entertained the Web -
V area
by Diary Cheesed'
ster families at their home
on Sunday, December 28.
Maybe I shouldn't ad-
vertise how soundly the
Chessells sleep, but when
New Year's Eve revellers
laid on their car horn within
a few feet of their bedroom
without disturbing them, it
makes you wonder just what
all they can sleep through.
The kids, who were getting
bored with their long
holiday, put the ice surface
to good use as soon as it was
ready. Lots of activity over
there!
The sympathy of their
many friends and neigh-
bours is extended to Allan
and Marjorie Hayter and
their girls in the loss of
Marjorie's mother, Mrs.
Woods. The flowers in Varna
and Goshen churches on
Sunday were from her
funeral.
David and Sandy Ostrom
and their family were home
for two weeks during the
holidays, with their time

divided between the Ostroms
and Sandy's mother, Mrs.
Beuerman. With all this
snow, the children had a
wonderful time
snowmobiling.
Members of the Youth
Group who attended the Toe
Alpha Conference in
Hamilton had a wonderful
time, and are hoping to
return again next year.
Brian Chessell was in-
terviewed by the Hamilton
television station, and was
able later to see the in-
terview, an interesting
experience.
Leon Sookrha, who was a
classmate of Glen Hayter
when he attended Guelph
University, and spent many
weekends and holidays at
Mervyn and Marg's home,
was here last Tuesday and
Wednesday. Leon was from
a family of eleven children,
eight of whom now live in
Canada. His mother also
came to Canada. He paid for
his tuition, books, etc. by
working in a restaurant
outside of Guelph. After
graduation there, he at-
tended Queen's in Kingston
and the University of
Saskatchewan, and is now a
very successful builder in
Edmonton.
Need your help
Now that the holidays are
over and the pace of social
life is slowing down, your
correspondent hopes to do a
better job. In order to have
news, I do have to enlist your
help. A phone call or a note
dropped in or handed to me
at church would be ap-
preciated whenever you
have special guests, or have
done some travelling.
UCW meeting tonight
Please remember the
UCW meeting tonight, the
benefit card party at the
township hall tomorrow
night, and Holy Communion
on Sunday.
Tim West, and a host of
others that you will have to
come to the game to see in
action.

is sponsored by the Bayfield
Lioness Club. For the
youngsters, Huck and Yogi

Mice tie - back to
the minors
The most outstanding
thing about the Lampoon
Hockey League game on
Bayfield
by
Bud Sturg.;on •
TuesdRy night, was• that it
was not outstanding at all. It
was the usual lopsided
victory for the Oldtimers
over the Rink Mice, this time
around a 9-3 drubbing.
Tuesday game also
marked the farewell per-
formance of the Smedsmo
brothers, Buffalo Roger and
Bence "the Bad" who were
returned to the minor
leagues by their respective
clubs.
One bright spot for the
Mice was the debut? of a
veteran winger, Hully-Gully-
Hulley, who laced on the
blades for the first time in 22
years, however he lost his
pipe at the game. Has
anyone seen a pipe? For the
Oldtimers it was Larouche
(even though suffering from
a painful back injury)
leading his offensive unit to
the depths of victory. Also
scoring were Voluptuous Val
and Vladimer Latimer.
Tiny Tim and the Moleman
handled the goaltending
chores.
On Saturday night the
Oldtimers decided to be kind
the the Rink Mice since they
had walloped them 17 times
in a row, so they played to a
7-7 tie.
It was a tough chore to
track down all the scoring
plays in this action packed
contest, but Winding Winnie
and Big Barb seemed to do
most of the scoring for the
Mice, while Stormin Norman
and Offside Veronica did the
majority of shooting for the
elders.
Next week (tomorrow
night) the regular game will
be played at 11:30 p.m. on
Friday night due to the Team
Ten Game at the arena on
Saturday night. Following
this one schedule change, all
future games will be played
at 9 p.m. on Saturday nights.
Cancel curling
Many members of the
Bayfield Mixed Curling Club
were under the weather with
various ailments and many
more were unable to buck
the snow squab on Sunday
night, so as a result regular
season play, was cancelled
and thosethat made it en-
joyed a fun night.
Extinguish fireplace fire
The Bayfield Fire
Department were called to
the residence of Dawn
Emma DeJong, on Keith
Crescent, around 5 a.m.

That mean old town grader
broke down again on Sunday
for about the 84th time in a
week and it took a truck and
several tractors to tow it to
the service station as it was
forming an effective "road-
block" on Main Street. And
that's why your street didn't
get plowed on time.
