Detweiler Reunion
At Steckle Farm
Over 400 persons braved the
heat wave on Dominion Day to
attend a Dettweiler reunion
held on the Asa Steckle farm.
This was the pioneer homestead
of one branch of the Dettweil-
ers, who moved into Huron
County over a century ago.
The old family dinner bell
summoned the crowd to a noon
lunch on the lawn; and a mid-
afternoon program followed
with Asa Steckle as chairman.
Lewis Gingerich led in a
brief but challenging devotion-
al, and several music numbers
were much appreciated. These
were contributed by Selvin
Roth, New Hamburg, playing
his guitar and harmonica; by
soloist Kees Koster, Markham,
and by a vocal quintet, Doro-
thy, Helen and Ruth Anne
Steckle, Lewis Gingerich and
Mahlon Martin, with Ruth Anne
and Mahlon accompanying on
their guitars.
Menno Steckle outlined the
history of the Rudolph Dett-
weiler family, of which there
are 10 branches of living de-
scendants.
Among those specially hon-
ored for the day were Mr. and
Mrs. Menno Martin, married
45 years, and Isaiah Dettweiler,
Bresleau, oldest gentleman
present.
Prizes went to two babies as
the youngest present. They
were, Delphine, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Steckle, .and
Kenneth, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Kees Koster. The couple com-
ing from the farthest point
were from Midland, Va.
Mrs. Selina Weber, 86, and
an ardent historian, again qual-
ified as the oldest lady presnt,
just as she had on the last
such occasion. She was, more-
over, the first to register.
Because of the heat a sched-
ule of sports was cancelled in
favor of the shade trees and
swings and. the cool shelter of
a large tent erected on the
lawn.
It was decided to continue
the plan of holding such a re-
union at five-year intervals.

Some nuts who can't make a
putt think the thing to do is
take their wrath out on the
green. Judging by the scar
left on number one green last
week, there must have been
just such a nut loose at Bay-
view.
I think this certain character
should take his clubs down to
the pond behind number • five
green, throw them in, and for-
ever after leave the game alone.
• s *
There is evidence that many
players should brush up on the
etiquette of the game. Carts
are being pulled across the
greens, divots are not being re-
placed, bottles are left lying on
the fairways. A little more ef-
fort on the part of the players
will make it easier for the own-
ers and managers of Bayview,
to maintain their excellent
course.
* *
Prepare yourself for some
new challenges at Bayview.
Plans are being made to build
sand traps around some of the
easier holes, so clean up the
wedge and No. 9 iron, you're
going to need them.

We will have the names of
winners of the men's tourna-
ment in next week's edition,
