This i&'a time that comes an- nually, sorta like the winter cold or the summer flu. It comes in late April or early May, the,time of year that all residents of Hollywood end work on television series and escape the smog and heat of .L. A. and spend more than three months in Hawaii, Europe, or the .Car- ibbean. Since summer replace- ments do not begin until June, this leaves us with more than a month of to -runs, when in reality, it was bad enough to see some of the garbage once. The old stand, -by Ed Sulli- van,, is still providing•us with live entertainment; in fact, many of his summer shows are new too, though they are film- ed rather than performed live. CBS plans to replace Red Skel- ton with a London -produced show that will star pianist Lib- erace ; the director will be our own Canadian Norman Camp- bell, who has brought so many great variety specials to the CBC. Not too mucli else re- leased about summer replace- ments; if anything looks worth staying indoors for, I'll put a bug in your ear. 0--0--0. • Speaking of Ed Sullivan, it is one thing to imitate his dis- tinctive speech and manner- isms, but to do a dance im- pression of him, is something else. Last week's opening act with the group of dancers was fantastic, requiring muchstudy and improvisation by a talented choreographer. Who would have thought it could be done?

It is a country -music show, which figures, and will be entitled, "Hee-Haw" of all things. He •will also be Cousin Clem on some of the shows, which is be,. ing filmed for CBS and will not likely be shown in our country. Cousin Clem I can do without, but I've missed Gordie since 'Country Hoedown' left us, He is a great host, could make anyone feel at ease, and is a good performer, too, when he applies'himself. If this summer series works, watch for him to „ stay in California --another loss, for Canadian television. 0--0--0 For lovers ,of folk music, the Mariposa Folk Festival is com- ing up July, 25-27.: A number of acts will be featured in the show , among the better-known performing are Ian and Sylvia, Joni Mitchell (she wrote the very popular 'Both Sides Now'), and Oscar Brand, who is famil- iar to us from television ap - pearances. The star of the show, though, will be Joan Baez, who will come from the U.S. toper- -form. The Festival is now held on the Toronto Islands, after the trouble in Orillia, its orig- inal home, a few years ago. And it's not hard to see why Pete Seeger (Monday evening the 12th) is the world's most famous folk -singer. Whether he is writing it, playing it, or singing it, his music entertains you, makes you think, and in many instances, makes you feel ashamed. It comes from the soul of a man who would like to see this world become ,a bet- ter placeand tries his best to I make it one.

They are I,ased on the shooting of o1ax targets thrown from a de- vice, as a "trap". Roth trap and skeet are or - gazed sports with regulating national associations, formals- zelI tournaments, and govern- ing rules. Tim are shot over competitive fields of precise, cons tont specifications. Although both sports are follow - .throughout the world, their greatest popularity is in 'the United States. Trapshooting dates back to lath century England. Trap- shooters (usually five in number fora "squad") fire from five adjacent positions in a crescent- sha led formation 16 or more yards behind the "trap. " Shoot- ing, is done in rotation with the ;person in number one position firing first and so on. Eachper- son fires at an individual target. After each person fires five shots from a particular spot on the crescent, all move one position to the right until each has fired from all positions --for a total of 25 shots. The "trap" is concealed in a low concrete building ahead of the shooters. Clay targets are thrown out of the building at Various angles unknown to the shooter. The clay targets usual - 1y sail from 48 to 52 yards and 'Wally direction within a 45 - degree angle. A perfect score (25 consecutive hits) is called a "straight. " • Doubles, where two targets are thrown simultaneously, are shot from .the 16 -yard line. A round accounts for 2.5 pairs, or 50 targets. A NOTE ON SKEET Skeet shooting 15 ' an Ameri- can invention, circa 1910. The word "skeet" itself is an archaic Scandinavian word for "shoot". The averageskeet squad is com- posed of five peopleeach of whom shoots a round of 25 shots, The similarity to trap shooting ends there. The skeet field is laid out ip a semi- circle (or half- "clockh with eight stations for shooting. Seven stations are positioned at equal distances on the perime- ter of the "clock" with the eighth in the middle on a line between position one and seven. (Station one would be the num- eral "12" ona clock; position seven would be the numeral "6".) High targets are thrown from station one at one end of the semi -circle; low targets With the Scouts The Camp Martyn Camporee, nr as one leader put it, 'Swam- poree ", was attended by twenty patrols of which four were from Wingham. Everyone was regis- tered, by 11 a. M. and things were still relatively -dry but 15y the time camp officially open- ed at 1:30 p.m. , it was rain- ing, Throughout the afternoon and between showers, events were held such as compass, ob- stacle course, firelighting, es- timations, etc. Around supper time the rain got heavier and events had to be called off. for the everting so everyone retired early in hopes that Sunday would dawn better. Sunday morning brought more rain but despite this breakfasts were prepared and eaten. News- casts brought promises of more rain so the Patrol Leaders and Staff met and decided that in the best interests of all, the Camporee should be called of. Vehicles were sent for from home and each Patrol made ready to depart. One might think that such an effort was all . in vain. We don't think so. Both Scouts and leaders learned much about be- ing prepared for bad weather as well as good. Certainly next time rubber boots, raincoat's, dining shelters, etc, will be at the top of the list, District Commissioner_Lloyd Ackert said that all who attend- ed would receive crests in about a month's time. Also there is a week -ling Scout Camp being planned from July 19 2 6 at Camp Martyn. In September a regional Camporee is being held at Camp Martyn and In- verhuron. At this, the Silver Cup which was to be presented last week -end, will be present- ed to the Patrol from Saugeen District with the highest points. "Good Scouting". Ont. Association life membership to George Inglis from station seven at the other end. The trap houses at station• one and seven are called the "high house" and "low house". Targets are always thrown in the same pattern of flight,- but the angle of the shot varies be- cause the shooter changes po- sitions as the skeet squad moves from station to station. ' T w o targets are shot from each of the eight stations --one from each house. , Doubles, where targets are thrown simultaneously from both houses, are they. shot from station one, two, six and seven. The 25th shot is called "op- tional", for it is a repeat of the first miss. If the shooter breaks all of his first 24, he Can call for a target from any station or house as his optional shot. The National Skeet Shooting Association. is the regulating , body of skeet and issues all rules governing the sport's form. alized, registered tournaments. Skeet is shot over competitive fields of precise , constant specifications. Skeet is follow- ed throughout the world with its greatest popularity in the United States. Jim Murray and Lloyd Case - more attended the annual Ontario Curling Association meeting held in Toronto last Tuesday, at' the Boulevard Curling Club. D. E. LaValley of Ottawa was elected president for the coming year. On the agenda was a request for members of Alfie Phillips Jr. 's rink for re -instatement. They where suspended at last year's annual.meeting for vio- lation of the "code of ethics" by taking prizes above the $150 per man limit. Their request for re -instatement was passed unanimously. If a player becomes injured, .or for any other reason he can- not play, the new rule specifies that if the lead is unable to -play his stones, the second shall throw them; if the second, ,third or skip is unable to play his stones, the player immedi- ately preceding him shall play them during the rest of that end. The injured player shall not be permitted to return to the game. George Inglis of Beltnore was elected Honorary Li fc Me niber.
