of 30 have been working part -
,,r time all winter.
James Roy, artistic director,
has been joined this year by new-
comers Donna Lebo, ad-
ministrator and Brenda Doner,
publicity director. Veterans Anne
Roy and Jim Schaefer, associate
directors, and Joe Miller, music
director, complete the adminis-
trative staff.
Mr. Roy works one or two days
a week all winter, beginning full
time the first of April. His job
consists of choosing the scripts,
hiring of artistic personnel,
applying for grants and main-
taining the business end. Mrs.
Roy and Mr. Schaefer assist him.

Slumping BP fastballers

Wingham's BP fastball team,
slumping in recent games, is hop-
ing to put its game together in
time to meet Chepstow here on

larly inte g one, coming on

a perfect night. Every member of
the Wingham team had at least
one hit. •
The 'pitching duties were split
between Kathy Cruickshank and
Mary DeBruyn. In three innings

undefeated this season. Their

tion.
home -and -home series.
Both games were closely
fought, with Chepstow taking a 4-
2 victory at home and then scrap-
ing out a 2-1 win in Wingham..
The real story in the second
game was the BPs' inability to
get crucial hits, which resulted in
13 men being stranded on base.
Wingham's run came on' six hits,
while Chepstow scored twice on
eight hits. Neither tearn com-
mitted any errors..
In its next game, 'against Rip-
ley, the team again ran into
trouble with quiet bats, losing 3-2.
Wingham had only four hits and
made three errors against Rip-
ley's six hits and one error.
In the. Brodhagen Tournament,
the team got' off to a fast start
with a 4-0 win, over Maryhill. Ed
Daer pitched a solid game, allow=
ing only one.. hit.
The 'second' game, against
Caledonia; went to extra innings
with the BPs coming up on the
short, end of 'a 4-3 score.
The third game, against
Forest, was a disaster. The BPs
were unable to score a run while
allowing five on six hits off Ed
Daer. The. team was hitting the
ball well at times, but had trouble
placing its hits,: with most being
directed straight et 'opposing
fielders.,
"The team hopes some- good,
workouts combined with a little
luck will put it back on the win=
ning track. The league as a whole
s shaping up very well to date
and promises some good ball
games. Home „games are 9 p.m.
Tuesdays, so get on down to the
park and support your team.
Juvenile girls

The .Wingham Juvenile Girls
continued their winning ways
with a 14-11 victory over the
/Juvenile team from Rostock.
In earlier games this season
errors in the field have had the
girls in trouble, however Sun-
day's game was the best defen-
sive effort of the young season.
Second baseman Glenda Bal-
lagh and centre fielder Esther
Nethery each made several diffi-
cult plays. saving runs and keep-
ing the Rostock team off balance.
The offensive power for the
team came from Diane Penning-
ton, who hit a triple and .three
singles; Glenda Ballagh had two
doubles and a single;. Esther
Nethery had a double and three
singles; and Kathy Cruickshank
had three singles.
Thehome team received an-
other strong pitching perform-
ance from Peggy Tervit, whose
play has been a terrific asset t�

fantastic support they have been
getting from the hometown fans.

panied by his band, The Good
Time Charlies. Besides singing a
number of his hit tunes, Reeves

Gems. Among the numbers they
performed were: Welcome to My
World, One Day at a Time, It's a
Good Day, Southern Loving, Old
Lamplighter, Scarlet Ribbons,
Chapel-' Bells and Rhinestone
Cowboy.
The highlight of the evening for
many pro ed to be the appear-
ance of Helen Cornelius. It was
noted that she had a spot of
trouble getting to the stage. She
had the misfortune to trip on the
stairs of the centre and tear her
gown, thus making it Necessary
to change attire only three min-
utes before her program was to
begin.
Miss Cornelius sang a number
of songs including, I Believe in
Music, If You Love Me (Let Me
Know), Let Me Be There and I'm
not Lisa on which she accom-

ceived from the Wroxeter Parks
Board and especially noted the
"good cooking" which they had
enjoyed prior to performing.
budgeting, accounting, fund-rais-
ing, agreements and hiring of ad-
ministrative staff.
"A lot of this wont is done with-
out salary," says Brenda Doner,
public relations. "There just isn't
enough money."
Sixteen thousand dollars must
be raised from private and cor-
porate sponsors, in order to allow
the theatre to continue, its opera-
tion and expansion.
After this amount, $10,000
remains to be raised. A number
of events are being sponsored to
offset the deficit. "Ham It up with
Charlie . Farquharson" and a
fashion show are examples. The
theatre is also canvassing for
donations.
Grants have been received
from Ontario Arts Council and
Canada Council. The theatre's
revenue breaks down into a third
from grants, a third from box
office revenue and a third from
Private and corporate donations,
Thisis fairly representative of
funditig'of arts in organizations in
Ontario., here are very few
theatres than can garner more
than 50 per cent of their income
from box office receipts.
The theatre has two musicians,
11 actors and 11 technical people
including carpenters, electri-
cians, stage management, cos-
tume people and designers. They
