American Boy Scouts
Stop over in Wingham
as part of bicycle tour
A•group of 13 Boy Scouts of
America and two leaders
stopped off in Wingham last
Friday night as part of a two-
week bicycle tour of the
northern United States and
Southwestern Ontario.
The cycle tour started
June 10 from Oak Harbor,
Ohio, a town about the same.
size as Wingham, according
to one of the Boy Scouts,
Greg Murphy. The group
traveled across the border to
Leamington and right up to
the midway point of the tour,
Kincardine, before turning
around for the return
journey.
Leader Roger Carpenter
said he hopes to be back in
Oak Harbor Thursday af-
ternoon. The tour will cover
approximately 1,100 miles.
The boys, aged 11 to 15
years, all reported a warm

reception from Canadians as
did their two leaders. Every-
where they have gone, said
Mr. Murphy, they have been
met by friendly people who
are naturally curious about,
their expedition.
The Sccouts traveled
approximately 50 miles per
day and stopped to camp
each night. They were not
plagued by rain, but the hot
sun caused some agonizing
sunburns along the way.
Also, Southwestern Ontario
has a hillier terrain than
their native Ohio so the boys
sometimes found it hard
going to peddle up some the
area's larger hills, but "It's
all downhill from here," said
Mr. Carpenter. •
Representatives from the
Wingham Boy Scout troupe,
Marty Cretier and Ken
Foxton, joined their
American counterparts at
Riverside Park last Friday
night for a get together.
When contacted later, Mr.
Foxton said the four leaders
bought four large pilus for
the hungry cyclists which
were quickly devoured.
After a good dinner and
breakfast cooked over an
open campfire, (the boys did
all the cooking), the Oak
Harbor Scouts left early
Saturday morning to com-
plete the final leg of their
trek home.
ACW members meet
at Jack King home
(Intendedfor last week)
BELGRAVE — The ACW

and the Lord's prayer was
said in unison.
The scripture was read by
Mrs. Alex Nethery. Cards
were signed to send to the
sick and those celebrating
birthdays. The collection
was taken and the roll call
answered by 11 members
and two visitors.
Mrs. Procter read the

Many foreign-owned con-
