you posted on Legion activities
and forthcoming events.
Our sports officer, Jack Eisler,
tirade arrangements some timeago
with the bowling alley and as a
result the local branch have n
fine schedule drawn up for each
Friday evening from 7 to 9. Its a
nice get together each week with
lots of laughs thrown in. Our
special events chairman, Charlie
'Woods deserves o bouquet for
lois fine efforts nn the weekly
bingo. Through a lot of work
he has built up quite a gang of
bingo fans and the games are
held every Saturday - night, so
let's see a big turnout this week
as the jack pot is worth around
900.
The Hallowe'en masquerade
dance was quite successful with
a wide variety of costumes on
display.
Well comrades Nov. 11 is not

big Remembrance Day parade so
