Forming new band
Anyone interested in joining
the formation of a new adult
band? If so, we'll be glad to
hear from you!
Plans have been made to form
an adult band for the town. of
Exeter. Membership is open to
everyone in the district. You
certainly don't have to be an
expert on any of the instru-
°We've been married six years,
,4 eight months, and three daYs,
to the penny."
inents to become a member,
either!
• With the help of the Exeter
.Recreation Council, the new
band will be under the direc-
' tion of Mr, Ford who also con-
ducts the local Junior Band.
The new band will be helped
I1
along with the addition of some
of the older Junior ]3and mem-
bers. By moving some of the
older students up, it will not
only form a basis for the new
band, but allow more room
I for participation by youngsters
in the junior band.
The adult band will practice
every Thursday evening in the
Exeter Town Hall. So, if you're
•interested, we'll certainly be
glad to hear from you! Give us
a call at; the Rec office (437)
or at home, 693-M and we'll see
; that your name gets passed
onto the proper authorities.
Still with music, we've heard
that a couple of people in town
would like their sons or daugh-
ters to take piano lessons.
From what we could find out,
Mrs. H. Sturgis and Mrs. Law-
rence Wein in this district do
give lessons. So you might give
one of them a call.
On tap
Despite the fact that all of
our minor baseball teams have
bowed out of campetition, there
are still some ball tournaments
coming up. Anyone interested
in taking a team to one will
certainly have the help of the
Exeter Recreation Council. So
let's hear from you!
The Lake Huron Zone Recre-
ation Council is holding its
fourth annual ball tournaments
in Listowel and Owen Sound on
September 9th and 16th res-
pectively,
At Listowel on the 9th, there
will be a tournament for Jun-
ior Girls' Softball (under 17 by
jail. 1, 1961); Boys Softball —
Squirt (under 10 by Jan. 1,
'61); Pee Wee (under 12 by
Jan, 1, '61) and Bantam (under
14 by Jan. 1, '61). Also Boys
Baseball — Bantam (under 15
by May 1, 1961),
In Owen Sound on Sept. 16
— Boys Baseball — Squirt (un-
der 11 by May 1, 1961) Pee
Wee (under 13 by May 17, 1961.
No pee wees shall be eligible
to participate inthis tourna-
ment if he holds an OBA
card. The idea of this particu-
lar grouping is to give boys a
chance to compete in tourna-
ment play who have not been
good enough to participate with
all-star teams.
Well there it is. So let's hear
from you!

Swim meets over
One of the most encouraging
chapters filled throughout Exe-
ter's summer recreation pro-
gram this year has been the
keen competition shown by local
participants in five district
swim meets.
RCAF Centralia youngsters
helped the local kids outin
three of their five meets against
Mitchell, Stratford and St. Ma-
rys while Exeter tackled Gode.
rich and Seaforth on their own.
Despite the fact that local
entrants failed to win a ineet,
they set some district records
and won their share of firsts in
many of the various races.
In our estimation, we feel that
the local people should be proud
of the way their youngsters
acted like ladies and gentlemen
while representing Exeter and
secondly, for the way they han-
dled themselves throughout the
racing events. It is no secret
that our swimmers have really
been handicapped all summer
without the use of a swimming
pool in Exeter. Every one of
the above mentioned centres
have a pool. Mitchell has had
one over there for close to 11
years while Seaforth has had
one in use for approximately
four years. With such excellent
showings on behalf of many of
our swimmers without a local
pool, just think what they might
di
o f they had one to practise
in!
Swimming registrations in
the Exeter Kinsmen swim pro-
gram set a new record this year
at 219. We strongly feel with a
pool, these figures could be
doubled. You know, it isn't easy
to teach how it should be done
with the facilities such as we
have at Riverview Park. In-
structress Martha Cochrane and
assistant Heather Strom should
be commended for the job
they've done! Facilities haven't
been the best!
Possibilities are unlimited for
local youth if instruction could
be given in a pool. We could
have another Cliff Liundson
right here in Exeter or even
top grade swimmers to repre-
sent our nation on an Olym-
pic swim team. They found they
had some in St. Marys. So, it
could happen here too!
We certainly would like to see
the project of building a swim-
ming pool in Exeter taken on
by every cltib in the district.
With everyone working on it,
the job of building a pool would
be made much easier.
A pool in Exeter would cer-
tainly be an asset to the town
— and besides -- we REALLY
NEED IT!
