MIDDLETON GENTTNER EXETER 235-2411 Times-Advocate, March 25, 1965 Page 7 Mark 20th anniversary Kirkton Party group hold party He also lent his interest and support to the Public Library, the Horticultural Society and the Red Cross. After attending Zenda Garden Party accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Roy McNaUghton, he re- solved to organize a similar event in Kirkton with the co- operation of the local organi- zations. Dec. 4, 1944 he called a public meeting in Aberdeenliall for the purpose of considering the organization of a Com- munity Association. There were 20 present at this meeting— Dr. C. A. Campbell, Canon James, Rev. W. D. Goodger, Chas. Paul, Hugh Berry, Frank Routly, Ira Marshall, Reg Paul, Leon Paul, Jack Urquhart, Mrs. Albert Bickell, Mrs. Nelson June 1950; Rev. J. H. Dean and Ron Timms, Sept. 1950 to Nov. 1950; Mrs. George Wilson, March 1951 to date; treasurers, Rev. W. D. Goodger, 1945 to 1948; Harold Rathburn, 1948 to 1950; Arnold Wisema.n, 1951 to 1958; Eldon Robinson, 1959 to date. Mrs. Roger Urquhart has served as assistant since 1949. The adult program has been in charge of Leon Paul con- tinuously since 1948. The juven- ile program, one of the main attractions of this three-fold event, has been convened by Mrs. Ross Marshall, Mr s. C. A. Campbell, Mrs. T. A, Crago, Mrs. Gerald Paul and the pre- sent convener,Mrs. Raymond Paynter. Assisting these ladies have been Mrs. Fred Switzer, Mrs. Clayton Ross with Mrs. Chas. Paul, Mrs. Harold Davis and others acting as accompan- Watson, MrS. George Hall, Roy McNaughton, Reuben Switzer, Russell Brock, Richard Hum- phrys are believed to be those in attendance. Canon James act- ed as chairman and Dr. C. A. Campbell as secretary. After Dr. Campbell explained his plan for a community asso- ciation in which all local soci- eties would co-operate for the benefit of all, a motion (by Hugh Berry and Frank Routly) was passed to organize such an organization. A committee was named with Canon James, chairman and Dr. Campbell, secretary. Repre- sentatives of the local societies were: Agriculture Society, Chas Paul, Hugh Berry; Aber- deen Hall, Ira Marshall, Frank Routly; Public Library, Rev. W. D. Goodger; Women's Insti- tute, Mrs. Albert Bickell, Mrs. Nelson Watson, Mrs. Thos. Near; Rink, Reg. Paul, Jack Urquhart. Later Alex Irvine, reeve of Blanshard, represent- ed this township and Hugh Berry, then reeve, represented Usborne Township. Immediately, a committee composed of Canon James, Rev. Goodger and Dr. Campbell set about to draw up a constitution. This constitution with a few minor changes is still used as a basis of operation by the KCA. Now there are six offi- cers, six representatives of the public, one representative from each of the five local societies and one from each township and the Upper Thames River Con- servation Authority. At a meeting held at the residence of Dr. Campbell, June 12, 1945 it was decided to hold a Garden Party August 22, at the fair grounds. The constitution was accepted and the first ex- ecutive elected: Hugh Berry, president; Mrs. Ross Marshall, secretary; Rev. W. D. Goodger, treasurer.

Urquhart; refreshments, Mrs. Emerson Paton, Mrs. Nelson Watson, Mrs. Ross Marshall; publicity, Fred Roger, Rev. Goodger, Mrs. Nelson Watson, C anon James and Dr. Campbell; grounds and parking, Frank Routly, Reg Paul, Jack Urquhart and Fred Roger. Of this group of originals, Leon Paul, Ross Marshall and Fred Roger are still on the executive. Dr. Campbell states, in his notes, that the garden party was a success despite a cool evening and the failure of the lighting system. In the intervening years the following officers have served: Presidents, Hugh Berry, June 1945 to Nov. 1945; Dr. C. A. Campbell, 1946 to 1951; Ross Marshall, 1951 to 1956; Fred Switzer, 1956 to 1962; John Roundell, 1962 to Aug. 1964; Allen Eveleigh, Aug. 1964 to date; secretaries, Mrs. Ross Marshall, June 1945 to 1947; Mrs. Fred Roger, 1948 to 1949; Russell Heard, Nov. 1949 to izes the catering, Conveners have been Mrs. Albert Bickell, Mrs. Emerson P aton, Mrs. Clarence Switzer, Mrs. Nelson Watson, Mrs. George Hall, Mrs, Archie Dewar, Mrs. Eric Hum- phreys, Mrs. Al Eveleigh, Mrs. Clayton Smith and Mrs. Roger Urquhart.

Gerald Paul has been the capable MC for this pregram for sixteen years. Children from public schools within a radius of 50 miles have per- formed on this program. In keeping with the theme, we are indeed happy to have some of these present to en- tertain us: the first prize win- ners in 1945, Grace Collier, Ross and Ken Blackler; the three Stephen Bros, Ros s, Roger and Don, to represent the six Stephens, consistent winners and Larry Lewis who received his Degree of Asso- ciate of Music from the Western Conservatory of Music last fall. These young people illustrate full well the aim of this pro- gram. Ross Marshall has had charge of the sports program providing lively ball games for 20 years. Fred Roger carried on his duties as ticket sales convener even when physically handicapped. Reg Morrison is the veteran car park convener.

The dates for this series have not been decided at time of The Zurich Juveniles played to a 4-4 tie with Plattsville in the second game of their best-of-three OHA Juvenile "D" series in Hensall Monday night. Plattsville won the first game in New Hamburg last Friday night by a 9-4 score to take a 1-0 lead in the series. Although the Zurich squad had trouble in adapting their style of play to New Ham- burg's large ice surface, they were able to stay close to Plattsville in the first two periods but suffered a third period letdown to lose the first game of the series. Plattsville led 3-2 at the end of the first frame and 5-3 at the end of the second before they broke out for four big goals in the last period. Bill Shade, Barry Bloch, Ken Westlake an Robert Miller scored a goal apiece for Zur- ich. Monday's contest was close all the way with neither team able to take a big lead. The score remained tied at the end of regulation time and a ten minute overtime session was played but still neither team was able to score. Robert Miller, Eugene Guen- ther, Ken Westlake and Bill Hoffman scored Zurich goals. The Zurich club now have their back to the wall and must come up with a win in the third game of the series. In the event of a Zurich victory the fourth and deciding game of the series will be played on neutral ice. The third game was played in Hensall last night. BY MRS. GEORGE WILSON Ross Marshall, convener of the 20th anniversary program of Kirkton Community Associa- tion, chose a most appropriate theme, Remembering the Years" and built up the program accordingly for March 1'7 in Woodhana United Church. The banquet tables were at- tractively decorated with sham- rocks and tall white tapers. A three-tiered anniversary cake which was made by anexecutive member, Mrs. Raymond Payn- ter, graced the head table. The honor of cutting this cake was given to Fred Roger, a member of the organization for twenty years. Allen Eveleigh, the president presided over the program and welcomed the hundred guests. Following the toast to the Queen, John Roundell, a past president, now of Caistorville, was asked to say grace. After the dinner Mrs. Roger Urquhart thanked the Woodham UCW for their hospitality and Mrs. Ira Mc- Curdy, the UCW president, re- plied. Gerald Paul accompanied by Mrs. Harold Davis conducted a sing song of lively Irish songs. Leon Paul introduced the 1965 officers. Grace Collier, Ross and Ken Blackler took the au- dience back to the first Garden Party when they sang Sunbonnet Sue and The Wedding of Jack and Jill. (They were first place winner in 1945). Ross, Roger and Don Stephen accompanied by their mother represented the Stephen Bros. who delighted audiences at the KCA Garden Party many times as well as appearing on TV. Larry Lewis, another juvenile performer, who received the Degree of Associate of Music from Wes- tern Conservatory of Music last fall, rendered four German folk songs. Ross Marshall and John Roundell spoke briefly of the aims of the Kirkton Community Association. By request, Mrs. George Wilson, secretary, pre- pared and presented a review of the Association: Tonight is being celebrated the 20th anni- versary of the Kirkton Com- munity Association. This or- ganization was given a life ex- pectancy of five years by the skeptics. The founder of the society, the late Dr. C. A. Campbell, was a man of vision who was ever alert to the promotion of cultural activities which would benefit the residents of this rural area. There are present tonight those who took part in his community choir concerts. • • BOWLING SCORES leSSOMMISZSME=2,15512111MMUSISIVAMMIZZEMSlannga EXETER LANES LUCAN LANES LADIES FRIDAY NITERS LUCAN MEN'S LEAGUE OB (J.

And still have trouble telling which model year you're looking at. When we improve the Volkswagen, we don't fool about with the style. We work on the works. For good reason. For instance, in 1952, we put vents on the front side windows. And in 1956, we redesigned the gas tank so you'd have more luggage spate up front. We made first gear synchromesh in 1961. To let 'you shift down from second to first without stopping. (We made a lot of lady drivers happy with that one.) What about this year? Well, there are 17 improvements for 1965 alone. Every single window on the '65 VW is just a little bit bigger. The back seat folds down so you tan use the entire rear of the tar for suitcases and such, The steering assembly is completely maintenance free. We made Our windshield wipers to do a better job. So although the Volkswagen may look the same to you every year, it does change. A fender from that '65 VW will bolt easily onto that 1938 model. That way, if you drive an old VW and something wears out, you don't have to worry about getting parts. And if nothing wears out, you don't have to worry about the shape you're in, HUNTER DUVAR LTD., Main Street, Tel.: 235-1100
