And why shouldn't they flex...1 proud and happy? judging from Oist rest of the news report, they have rmittry reason to be elated over their rrocinit great accomplishment. This :tile village of 200 residents, assisted Orr members of the surrounding corn- scomity, has just completed the con- atruction of a new arena and recreat- Zorn centre, which cost more than ,405.000 for the materials alone. That a really worth-while achievement -nett puts to shame hundreds of larger retristres which are afraid' or too in- afferent, to attempt a smilar project -irvc the good of the entire community. The completed building, which has age overall measurement of 280 by 90 local farmers total considerably less than 500 individuals. In attempting to raise money, various social activities were held and local organizations contributed generously to the building fund. Each member of the community was assessed according to his means, and without exception all complied. The actual construction started in the spring of 1948, and through the efforts of local farmers and villagers, who donated their time, the main structure Undoubtedly, Wingham is one of the larger centres which have fallen far short of Nobleton's record in pro- viding recreational facilities « for the young people of the community.

Meals - Lunches i p A reader has requested information on the penalties for the more frequent infraction of the rules, It is unethical to violate rules in- tentionally, and in prescribing penal- ties it is assumed that violations are purely accidental. The recently revised laws are not designed to punish an offender, but simply to compenate the opponents for the probale injury caused by the infraction. There is now for not applying the rules, EXPOSED CARDS: 1, During the bidding there is no penalty for exposing one card below a jack. If a jack or higher card, or any two or more cards are exposed, .the partner is barred from one round" of bidding, and if the player becomes a defender the exposed cards become pen4lty cards (see below). 2. During the play any card expos- ed by a defender becomes a penalty card, PENALTY CARD: A penalty card is left face up on the table and must be led or played at the first legal opportunity, REVOKE: A revoke becomes "established" when either player of the offending side leads or plays to the next trick. Before then the revoke may be cor' rected. In this case the opponents may change any cards they played ,after the, revoke, and the revoke card becomes a penalty card'if' played by a defender, The penalty for an established' re- voke is two tricks, but these may be claimed only from tricks won by the offending side after the revoke (in- cluding the trick on which the revoke was made). CALL OUT OF TURN: 1, If the offender passes when it was the right , hand opponent's turn to bid, he still must pass after the op- ponent has bid. 2. In any other circumstance, the wrong call is cancelled and' the offen- der may bid in turn, but his partner is barred from further bidding. INSUFFICIENT BID The offender has three choices, He may— (a) Make the bid sufficient in the same suit. (b) Make the bid sufficient in' an- other suit. In this case his partner is barred from further bidding. (c) Pass. His partner is • barred from further bidding, and if an oppon- ent becomes the declarer, he may call or forbid the lead of a specified suit. LEAD FROM WRONG HAND BY DECLARER: The declarer must (if it is possible) lead the same suit from the correct hand. LEAD OUT OF TURN BY A DEFENDER: The declarer has two choices. He may (a) Forbid the lead of that suit, but may not specify another suit. (The exposed card becomes a penalty card.) (b) Treat the lead out of turn as a correct lead, and play to it. DUMMY'S RIGHTS: Provided dummy has not seen any other hand, he may warn any player against leading from a Wrong hand, or draw attention to any other irregular- ly or infringement of law. If dummy has seen any other hand, he loses all rights. BLYTH - Mrs. Harry., Bowen was taken to Clinton Hospital suffering from pneu- monia, her many friends here hope for a speedy recovery.

ET TU BRUTE No, we aren't trying to be hinny, and we aren't referring to anything brutish in any way. "Et to brute" is a Latin phrase uttered by Julius Caesar when Ile saw his friend among his assassins, and the English translation is, "and thou, too, Brutus." With re- ference to the preceding article, we should have headed this article "ET TU WINGHAM" or, in English, "AND THOU, TOO, WINGHAM." While we are only too glad and very ready to admit that Wingham has done and is doing much in the way of recreational training and facilities for the young people of this town, yet ILIIIIIMIN11111111111/11111111111101311111111111111111 IIIIII 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111011111111111111111111111"_ to be truthful and frank, we must re- m cord the shameful fact that the citiz- mi ens of this commnuity, and surround- _ • ing communities, have fallen far short 11 of fulfilling their obligations and dut- = ies in that respect. citizens to provide these needed facil- ities. As we have ,stated before, Wingham urgently needs a larger athletic park, suitable fon hard ball or Baseball, and with a cinder track. It is a sad state of affairs; when Wingham boys lack a suitable plhying field 'to play base- ball, the greatest Canadian and Amer- ican summer sport.

In the same category of recreation- al needs in Wingham should be men- tioned a swimming pool for aquatic sports, a race track and a fair grounds. Other centres, many smaller than this town, such as Nobleton, find the ways and means to look after the recreat- ional needs of their young people so why cannot Wingham do likewise, It will take more. than talk to advance Wingham beyond its present horse- and-buggy days recreational facilitits. * * r WINGHAM HAS A GOOD FIRE DEPARTMENT Commendation is due the Wingham Fire Departthent for the very excel- lent service rendered the town over a period of many years. .,Wingham has been very fortunate to escape having any wide-spread disastrous fires in its • history and the credit for this remark- "able safety achievement must go to the fire department, 17g- There have been serious ' fires in yi town over the years cif its history but a they were always checked or confined n to a small area.
