Clinton News-Record, 1978-04-06, Page 17• • This week at the Legion By Rene Brochu Spring is fast approaching, and with that fact in evidence, mens euchre had their last card night last Tuesday. This coming Tuesday evening, they will be enjoying another Ladies Auxiliary delicious dinner, so all you euchre players don't miss that night. We welcome back our "character", Stan Batt, who was away on a ten-day safari through the States visiting New York, Washington, New Orleans, and Florida. Stan said he had to come back because he was broke. To serve as a conversation piece, Stan has his picture up behind the bar. Saturday evening, the auditorium was the scene of bowling as the Clinton and• district mixed bowling league held their annual banquet and dance. The auditorium was arrayed with not bowling togs, but, ladies and gen- tlemen decked ou, in their finest attire. The Ladies Auxiliary once again came through with a gourmet meal of roast beef with all the trimmings. The Bowling League expressed their thankfulness to the Ladies Auxiliary for a well prepared and expertly served dinner. Receiving trophies were: for the ladies high average, Louise Gibbings; high triple, Pat Thomas; high single, Stella Peacock. Men's trophy winners were: high average, tied were Don Switzer and Rob Van Damme; high triple, Jim Switzer; high singe, Howard Edwards. League champs were "The Sweets", composed of Libby Strong, Betty and Joan Switzer, Boby McGlynn, Ron Ellerby, and Glen Thomas. The mixed league executive for 1977-78 were: Lennard Steep, president; Marie MacAulay, secretary; Mary Hoggart, treasurer. Marie was the mainstay in organizing the banquet and dance and I'm sure all members of the league would agree that she and the executive deserve a real hearty vote of thanks in appreciation of a job well done. Don McWhinney, now owner of the Clinton Crown Lanes, addressed the group with words of praise for the good sportsmanship displayed throughout the year. Dancing followed the banquet to the music of "Country Unlimited," who showed their varied talents in supplying music for young and old alike. The Legion wishes to thank the Mixed Bowling League for using our facilities for the windup festivities of the season and we hope to see you back again next year. Our thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Eric Switzer and Mr. and Mrs. Tom O'Connell for taking care of the bar facilities. It is this spirit of dedication to the Legion's aims and objects which is so much appreciated by the executive and management.
