There was lots of fun and excitement taking place. Last Thursday we attended the Blyth Festival production, "Mail - Order Bride". It is a touching story about three generations of a farm family. The next play is lined up for July 7. We are planning to take in the matinee, "Lucien". We had a guest speaker on Tuesday, June 21, Pat Smith, speech pathologist at Wingham and District Hospital. The seniors found her presentation very interesting. She spoke about the activities she performs as a speech pathologist. We also viewed a film about the work speech pathologists do. On Friday a wheelchair clinic was held. The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Royal Canadian Legion did a wonderful job of serving lunch. The Boy Scouts were also a great help. It was sponsored by the March of Dimes, Major Medical and the Day Centre for the Homebound. Thanks again to. everyone who helped. This week there will be a picnic in the park. Many activities and games are planned. A foot clinic will be held Thursday, June 30.if you would like an appointment; please call 357-1440 or 357-1445. The next foot clinic will be held July 13.

Jeff McKee had two hits with Poulin, Bloemberg, Kotsanis, Jason and Balzer and Dave McKee, one. In separate action last Thursday night, Wingham hosted Belmore in Tri -County League play. This was a closely -played game with Wingham prevailing 5-3. Paul Sakasov and Harrison led the offence, collecting two hits apiece and both scoring twice. Bloemberg homered, driving in three runs. Neil and Currie added singles. Neil, Currie and Poulin split the pitching duties, with Neil getting the win and Poulin the save. BRUCE'S NOTES—A11 three pitchers looked sharp in the Belmore match -up after not playing for a couple of weeks. Bloemberg's bat stayed hot as he homered for his sec- ond consecutive game. Like last year, the Wingham boys did not seem prepared to play in their first tournament of the year. The local pitchers were left shaking their heads as they gave up only 20 hits in four games, but the defence committed 27 errors. The boys are going to have to settle down defensively or buy a glue factory before the playoffs start in a couple of weeks. The team's next home game is this Thursday night at 9 o'clock against Brussels. Thursday night horseshoe play Mason Robinson and Syd Lawson took first place at last week's ses- sion, with four wins and a plus of 14. They tied with Ivan Gardner and Neil Edgar but were first by an extra game. In third place were Jack Higgins -and Glenn Casemore, four wins plus nine; fourth, Leon Russell and Lorne Kuntz, two wins plus 49; fifth, Keith and Greg Moffatt, one win plus 42_ and sixth, Paul McKee and Lorne Hamilton, with no wins and a plus of 91. 0-0-0 In this world nothing ran be said to be certain, except death and taxes.
