Bunny Jamboree ADMISSION $1.50 Donkey baseball Rules The talk of the town for the last week has been Donkey Baseball! And in order tb as sist all in the rules of the game and to understand the bonehead diamond plays which will be pulled by experts from the teams; Town Fathers and Kins- men, here's how the game is played. On hand will be eleven, real live donkeys. Overheard one fellow say the other night he just couldn't convince his good wife that real live donkeys are used. Well, they'll be there. They are positioned as follows: three for basemen, three for fielders, one for short stop. ese donkeys remain in posi- tion for both teams. The other four donkeys are used as base runners. The pitcher and catch- er are the only players un - mounted and they are confined to a restricted area for their ac- tivities. Players are not re- quired to stay mounted at all times but they must be on the donkey's back to participate in any play. The donkeys are trainedto do the wrong thing and just naturally have a mind of their own, which should result in many hilarious situations. LATE SHOW SUN., June 15 Gates open 9:30; Show 10:00 (Adult Entertainment) THE VENGEANCE OF FU MANCHU -- and -- T e Devil In Love Vittorio Gassman - Mickel Rooney - Claudine Auger (Adult Entertainment) Bases are circles four feet in diameter and players on base. must be on the donkey and have two of„its feet in the circle. A player may go on foot to recover a thrown or batted ball but he must take his donkey With him. We're bound to find out whether its easier to ride, tug or shoye the donkey) Be - fore he can,,•rhrow the ball he trust be on the donkey. So players, don't be surprised if you find after remounting that you're facing the opposite dir- ection from where you want to throw the ball! For the batter, an attendant holds a donkey in readiness, the batter trikes till he hits • the ball even if it taken a hun- dred swings --there's no easy way to the bench by striking , out! As soon as the ball is hit, the batter mounts the donkey and is ready to start the circuit of the bases, providing, of course, the animal is wiling. If the donkey decided to go CA third instead of first, the strong- est will prevails and donkeys are not noted for being co -opera ative. If a bat ter, in !two at- tempts is unable to ride his donkey between the bases, he is automatically "out". ""Looks like an evening of hilarious fun for the spectators and from the talk of townspeo- ple there will be a packed park. ust. about everyone will be there. And remember, all pro- fits will be' used to make much needed, improvements at the ball park. s So until Friday night, June 13 at 8 p. m. , players and spec- tators wait in a state of anxious • anticipation. See you there! MOOT BRIDGE The nlembers Of the Ladies,' God Club held a very sum- ful dessert bridge Monday* y noon at the GoTf Cl b, thirty ta,b1ctin play.

Each year, a talented group of kids train ',and perform in the Orchestra , during the summer months;each year, of course, 'there will be dopouts and additions, mainly because people have birthdays 8 are embe arid .the' orchestra estra m rs kept at, I believe, 17-24 years of age, Each year, in various centres throughout Canada, au- ditions are held; not all those who try are accepted, of course, but the best are g iv en the chance of a lifetime in belong- ing to such a prominent group. Thirty-four of the members will join a chamber group and Goodyears ka. ifl intermediate group The Wingham Brophy Good- years areleading the WOAA In- termediates group with fly e wins and no losses. The next game in Wingham will be Sun- day •afternoon at 2.30 when Teeswater will supply the op- position. . In•Durham on Wednesday night of last week, the Good- ' years won 15-4.

The opening had taken place on May 31st with filmed high- lights shown on the 2nd;, with actual events on the 2nd being the debut of the new ballet by The National Ballet of Canada. The Centre cost a mere $4% - 000,000. and is situated 'on 6 acres of land beside the Rideau • Canal near Parliament Hill in , Ottawa. It includes a 2300 - seat opera house, an 800 -seat theatre, a 300 -capacity experi- mental studio theatre, a salon, a 165 -seat restaurant, •a side- walk cafe, two bookshops, a - record store, and a 900 -car garage. The stage of the opera. house is second in size to only the stage at New York's Lincoln Centre; in fact, it is the only opera house to have a stage larger than its seating area. It will present; in future years, "the finest entertainment in the world --dramatic and musical' talent of the .finest calibre, . to please everyone. If 'you plan on vacationing in Ottawa in the future, make the Centre one of your 'ports of call' Plan your summer holidays with .an Apache .• Carnper Trailer: Avoid motet and coir tags seeking.
