They spent a weekend at
Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio where
they attended the 23rd an-
niversary of the Cathedral of
Tomorrow. Rex Humbard
and his family were present
for this special occasion.
A most enjoyable holiday
was spent at the Scott Farm
Resort at Oquaga Lake in
New York State, where there
was recreation and enter-
tainment to suit everybody.
On the way down they visited
the famous Corning Glass
Works.
They also went on an after-
noon bus trip to the Big
Creek Boat Farm at
Caledonia on the Grand
River, and enjoyed a cruise•
and dinner on the Grand
River Belle. This was follow-
ed by films of many places
on the Grand River as it
flows through to Lake Erie.
There is a bake shop, craft
shop and dining room where
entertainment and meals
are provided. Another
highlight of their travels was
a trip to Hamilton to see the
Geritol Follies at Hamilton
Place. They had time to shop
at Jackson Mall and had din-
ner at the Y.W.C.A.
In the Slo-pitch tourna-
ment at Kirkton on the
weekend, the Stanley
Steamers won 10-8 in their
game gainst Stratford, and
15-5 over New Hamburg on
Saturday. They were.
defeated 15-3 by Hamilton. on

There was chore than
fishing to cause a little ex-
citement for . Bill Chessell
and . brother-in-law Don
Riehl on our first night in
camp at Powassan a week
ago. A man was heard call-
ing from across the river at
10:30 at night that he was
lost. They went over and
picked ,him up, then got the
camp owner out . of bed to
return him to his car, which
had a dead battery. Instead
of following the road to a far-
mhouse, he had attempted to
go across heavily . wooded
ravines and become
hopelessly lost until he came
out in a meadow from where
he could see the camp lights.
The man was a new
employee of the township,
and not familiar with the
area: •
