Is it to be TIP nuclear arms for anybody, or just a sprinkling here and there, or no nuclear arms for Quebec? There's only one party left, It's been left for years, and will probably be left again on elec- tion day. The grinning leader of the Indeepees, somewhere In there among all the jokes, has stated unequivocally that his party is against nuclear,arms at home or at school, at Work or at play. Does this mean that, because it's the only party that agrees with me, 1 have to vote Socialist, whether I want to or not? I told you this one-issue busi- ness was ridiculous.

Diefendunarner says we won't have any of these atrocities in Canada, sort of.

Then there's Lesser Person. Lesser reminds me of the girl who sang in the choir and taught Sunday School, but took a drink one night on a sleighride and now dances third from the left in the chorus line at the Purple Gar- ter. Lesser, who once remarked sensibly that he'd rather be red than dead, who once won the No- bel Peace Prize, now wants to press those hideous heads into the hot little hands of our gal- lant lads in uniform. How could I vote for him? And of course we have that new party. Tweedledum vows that the Party wouldn't touch nuclear arms with a 10-foot Rec news ing north of Lucan, spent the night here. Some of Lucans commuters started for home and turned back, others didn't even attempt the trip but stayed with London friends.

March 6 will be a day long to be remembered as one of the worst days of the winter. A bliz- zard which began early in the afternoon, soon made visibility nil and cars were stranded everywhere. The Medway school bus, dri- ven by Ralph Lippert, got through with some of Lucan's children but Mrs. Drennan's bus got stranded near Ross McRobert's home on Conces- sion 4 Biddulph and all 45 child- ren crowded into the McRo- berts' home. Mrs. McRoberts, who is on the Lucan staff, had difficulty getting home herself and had to send for her hus- band's tractor. However with the assistance of one of her neighbours she managed to feed the crowd. Later on in the evening Mr. Lippert drove his bus to No. 7 and Mr. McRoberts, with trac- tor and trailer, made three trips to take the children to the bus which eventually arrived in Lu- can at 8:30 p.m. Children liv- Ilangr'niMeng. *WM; , • HURCH NEWS MISSIUI=AM,,,,YagoWlisaf=111,==3"111V.E5t:::1=11=trAPAELY.C4 Lions club backs Red Cross drive At the dinner meeting of Lu- can Lions Club last Monday night, it was voted to again spon- sor the Red Cross drive March 25.
