Wool- ens' Institute rally was held at the Fanshawe Pavilion Tuesday, August 22, with the West Middle- sex District as hostess and"Cit- izeaship Our Heritage" the theme, which was discussed in discussion groups conducted by Mrs. Ken Field. Among the 90 delegates from the various Middlesex County institutes were Mrs. Frank Hardy (president), Mrs. Alex Youngand Mrs. Guy Ryan who represented the Lucan Branch. Mrs. Marvyn Pardy, new editor of "Home and Country", was the guest speaker. Three scholarships were pre- sented to Miss Isabelle Rose of RR 1 Ailsa Craig who received $100 towards the continuation of her education and $50 Centennial scholarships to Miss Shirley Hunter of Dorchester and Miss Carol Left of Ilderton, Ladies enjoy club's picnic Picnic ends playground Misses Carla Revington and Cathy Mathers, who had charge of the Lucan Arena's seven week Summer School ended their activ- ities Friday, August 18 with a picnic held in the Ausable Con- servation picnic grounds. Mrs. Lionel Kloss and Rec- reation Director Jim Burt assist- ed in conveying the 22 children. The latter was also in charge of the barbecue. A number of races were held, before rain chased the group back to the arena where the sports were completed indoors. The picnic was highlighted with a birthday cake made by Mrs. Kloss for her five-year-old son, Donnie. G Loft, M. Culbert, Norm Hardy, T & G Loft, M. Culbert, Norm Hardy (10 and 11) Andy Hardy, Mike Eggett, Dwight Henderson, and Bill Ennis. This was truly a tough race. Any birds that got home in the day certainly deserve a lot of credit. Clarence had the best returns of any of us. He either has better birds or he feeds them more. This was Andy and Jack Hardy's first start in the young birds this year, They didn't show up as well as they could have but they will make the top before the season is over. sweeping in over Lucan. One went to Clarence Hardys and landed on the silo, The other one went to the Culbert Loft and landed in a tree. Now up until this point in pigeon racing I didn't know they had open season on race birds. It was just a case of who could shoot his bird (just to scare it mind you) down the quickest. To make a long story short they now call Clarence, "quick draw". Oh! the things a fellow will do to win a pigeon race. After the guns were silenced, the results were: Clarence Hardy, M. Culbert, C. Hardy (3 & 4), T& by a whisker, so he came to the club house this week with his beard shaved off. August 19 started just like any other race day. The birds were liberated at '7:30 am in Oshawa by Gord Hardy, It was pot too bad a morning in Oshawa but here at home it was a different story, It clouded in at 8:30 and by 9 am it was raining and it rained off and on all day, We started to watch for a bird about 11 am. Just a hope that one might come scooting in through the rain, We watched and waited and wondered , then at two min- utes after 12 two birds came By "HOMER PIGEON" We had our weekend pigeon race from Oshawa on August 12. It was a clear sunny day with northwest winds. There were seven lofts with 114 birds participating in this race. They made the 136 miles from Oshawa to Lucan in three hours, 17 minutes and 12 seconds. The birds were released in Oshawa by Bruce Haskett who went along with the Scott Trans- port to liberate the birds. They were released at '7:15 am and the first bird in Lucan was clocked at 10.32, 12 am. This was a bird from the Culbert loft, it belongs to Jeff but as he was at choir camp his dad had to clock it for him. The grandfather of this little pigeon won at Georgetown two years ago. It was first in the Southwestern Ontario Federation and was in competition with 1083 birds. The results are as follows: Jeff Culbert, T & G Loft, Clarence Hardy (3rd and 4th) Norm Hardy, T&G Loft, Mert Culbert, T&G Loft, Norm Hardy, Mike Eggett, Norm Hardy, Dwight Henderson and Bill Ennis. It was a very good race with only three minutes be- tween the first and second bird. Dwight Henderson just missed winning the pool money last week Western woman dies at age 101 Mrs. Norman Craig, 101, of Swift Current, Sask., passed away at the Geriatic Centre, Saturday, August 19.
