The officer watched a motorcycle attempt to pass a long line of vehicles. The 2002 Suzuki was clocked in radar, traveling 186 km as it passed five eastbound vehicles. The officer activated his emer- gency lights and the motorcycle passed the officer's position, failing to stop as directed. The officer stopped following as he watched the motorcycle continue to pass other vehicles dangerously. A different officer observed the same motorcycle entering the Town of Exeter at a high rate of speed. The officer activated his emergency lights and again the driver failed to stop as he drove by the officer. The driver attempted to run a red light at the intersection at Dashwood Road and the Main Street, north in Exeter. The driver attempted to avoid a southbound vehicle in the middle of the inter- section, losing control, the driver struck the curb and flipped over the bike. At the time of the incident the driver was wearing a helmet, shorts and flip-flops. The driver, a 19 -year-old of Ayr was transported to Exeter Hospital where he received medical attention for a bro- ken collar bone, shattered left wrist, broken right hand and many cuts, scrapes and abrasions. He will attend Exeter Provincial Court Aug. 31, facing one count of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle. cooking with memories BY DEBBY WAGLER WHEN I WAS FIRST MARRIED (OVER 24 YEARS AGO) I MUST ADMIT I REALLY LIKED TO USE A RECIPE BOOK TO MAKE A RECIPE, I WASALSO KEEN TO TRY IT OUT ON RANDY AND I FIRST, BEFORE MAKING IT FOR GUESTS. NOW I AM MUCH MORE ADVENTUROUS AS I OFTEN STRAY FROM AN ORIGINAL RECIPE AND ADD FLAIR WITH COMBINATIONS OF FOOD AND HERBS. I LOVE TO TRY OUT RECIPES ON GUESTS! THAT IS WHY WHEN I MAKE A TRADITIONAL SALAD IT OFTEN HAS A VARIANCE FROM WHAT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN YEARS AGO. HERE IS MY VERSION OF MACARONI SALAD. DON'T FORGET TO CREATE YOUR OWN VERSION OF BASIC RECIPES. MACARONI SALAD 2 cups cooked macaroni 3/4 cup chopped celery 1/2 cup each of red and orange pepper 3-4 chopped green onion 2 hard-boiled eggs (optional) 3/4 cup mayonnaise 2 tbsp. relish 1 tsp. mustard 2 tsp. sugar I /2 tsp. pepper 1 /2 tsp. salt Mix all ingredients together and chill. Serve with homemade bbq hamburgers and enjoy! If you aren't a big mayonnaise fan you can use bottled dressings and add as many small pieces of raw veggies you like. I would omit the eggs and stick to Italian type dressings. Technology at the Huron Country Playhouse got a big boost recently with the donation of $7,000 of computer equipment from the Huron Country Playhouse Guild.Above left are front -of - house manager Jenny Keppler and Guild presi- dent Sally Siegner. (photo/submitted) GRAND BEND — At the peak of the summer theatre season, the Huron Country Playhouse is bustling with activity, pre- senting eight shows a week to enthusiastic audiences and selling hundreds of tickets each day. With so much work to do, nothing could be more wel- come than the new computer equipment recently donated by the Huron Country Playhouse Guild. With the arrival of the equipment productivity is at an all-time high, further improv- ing an already excellent venue. "We are very thankful for this generous donation from the Guild," says Drayton Entertainment artistic director Alex Mustakas. "The Guild continues to be such tremen- dous advocates for profession- al theatre in Huron County, and with this type of support we are able to create greater efficiencies within the adminis- tration and production ends of our organization." The purchase of $7,000 in computer equipment was made possible through raffles, gift shop revenue and other creative fundraisers initiated by the Guild. The purchase included much-needed laptops, monitors and printers for the front -of -house, wardrobe, properties, and production departments. "We are so proud to be part of an organization which serves the arts community in such an inspiring way," says Huron Country Playhouse Guild president Sally Siegner. "It is our hope that this equip- ment will help the Huron Country Playhouse continue to grow and entertain its audi- ence." Huron Country Playhouse launched its 1972 inaugural season in a rented big -top tent while actors and staff lived and worked out of the century -old barn. This year marks the the- atre's 35th anniversary, with attendance expected to once again surpass the 60,000 mark during the 14 -week season. "It is through the support and generosity of our donors, members and the Guild that we have reached such an important milestone in Canadian theatre, says Mustakas. "Not only does their assis- tance enable us to present the- atre of the highest artistic stan- dards, but it keeps this historic venue alive for new genera- tions of theatre -goers to expe- rience."
