B • ird races
start again.
By HOMER PIGEON
The first race of the 1968 seas-
on was held Sunday morning, be-
fore a lot of people were out of
bed (including a couple of the
club members who found their
birds in the loft when they went
out).
The birds were basketed Satur-
day night and the truck left Lucan
at 5:30 Sunday morning. Chuck
Barrett was picked up in St.
Marys to help with the liberation.
(He, too, had to be roused from
his warm little bed at six a.m.)
The birds were set out of the
truck on a parking lot in Kit-
chener at seven am. They were
let up into a beautiful sun-filled
sky with no wind to hinder their
flight home.
The first bird was clocked in
Lucan at one minute and 34 sec-
onds after eight pm — just an
hour to make a 50 mile flight.
This was a bird belonging to
Pete Culbert. He has been try-
ing for two years to have a win-
ner and he came through with one
that got him the Harry Hardy
Insurance trophy for that race.
The winning bird was figured
out to be travelling 1411.3 yds.
per minute or 48 miles per hour.
Runner-up was a bird of Jack
Hardy that was the winner of the
best bird of the club last season.
Third and fourth were birds of
Clarence Hardy and fifth was a
bird of Dwight Henderson's flock.
There were 10 lofts which
shipped 168 birds.
Short walk nets
$70 for women
For the first time since her
recent illness Mrs. Eldon Hopps
was able to preside at the Thurs-
day evening TOPS meeting. Seven
members and one weigh-in were
present.
Mrs. Don McRobert was named
queen for the week and others
received a TOPS emblem signi-
fying a steady loss. Weigh-in
mates were chosen for the week.
All were delighted with the
financial report of the Walka-
thon to Clandeboye and back, for
the project netted the club $70,
which will be used for club pro-
jects.
MEDWAY EUCHRE
The 20 members of the Medway
Euchre. Club finished their season
last Monday night with a turkey
dinner, provided by the ladies of
the Forrester's Lodge, Granton,
followed by progressive euchre.
High score winners were Mrs.
Carmen Hodgins and Mr. Austin
Hobbs, lone hand winners were
Mrs. Austin Hobbs and Mr.
Chester McComb and low score
winners were Mrs. Elmer Sum-
mers and Mr. Earl Middleton.
Friends honor
two bridal pair
Sunday Mrs. Wm. Butler of
Toronto, held a dinner party
for 16 Lucanites, and former
Lucanites, to do honour to two
Lucan couples, prior to their
marriage June 15 and July 6,
Miss Carol. Latta and Mr. Bill
Park and Miss Barbara Park
and Mr. Don Coughlin.
committee decided to "sleep on
its proposal" before presenting
it to council as a definite recom-
mendation.
The deferment came when the
committee found an error in as-
sessment figures on which the
wards are based, so decided that
all figures should be checked
before the final decision is made.
The county board of education
will be elected the first Monday
in December. Nominations will
be held prior to that in each of
the new wards, with the clerk of
the municipality in each ward
which has the largest assess-
ment designated as returning of-
fice for school board elections.
In Ward 1, for example, the
clerk of McGillivray Township,
William Amos, would fill this
election position.
Similarly in the county-wide
election of the two separate school
members, the clerk of the num-,
icipality with the largest sep-
arate school assessment would
serve as returning officer. This
would be Charles Kirk, of West-
minster Township.
The committee will meet again
next Tuesday to settle its re-
commendation to county council,
which must pass the necessary
bylaws prior to June 1.
The committee had been ad-
vised by the provincial depart-
ment of education that in setting
up the wards, every effort should
be made to create wards along
existing municipal boundaries,
combining two or more munici-
palities where necessary. Div-
ision of one township between
two wards was to be avoided, the
committee was told.
Another group
watching weight
Another Lucan overweight club
was organized last Tuesday at
the home of Mrs. Glen Kennedy
with an attendance of eight and
officers were elected.
President is Mrs. Wayne Hock-
ey; secretary, Mrs. Glen Ken-
nedy Jr.;treasurer, Mrs. Thomas
Emery; weights & measures,
Mrs. Clare Paton. Meetings will
be held each Tuesday afternoon at
the homes of the members.
Penalty for gaining will be the
providing of a door prize.
Mrs. Thomas Emery offered
her home for the next meeting.
The club decided the Word

understanding, caring, appear-
ance, naturally, initiative, total,
excess and slitnming.
Tea was served by the hostess.

D amage high
in area fire
About 2;30 am Tuesday Lucan
ites were aroused out ,of their
first sleep by the sound of the
fire siren. As it only rang a few
times most people concluded it
was out of the village,
It turned out to be the new
home of Mr. Bob Bruner on High-
way 4, just east of the village.
Apparently the fire was caused
by a defective fireplace, as the
fire was out when the family
retired.
Mrs. Bruner reports,the dam-
age was estimated at$3,000 from
the fire and water.
