These eers sold for around $875 and .were all spoken for before they arrived its Wingham. Sport has always been as much a part of Alex ,Crawford as motor ears. He started bowling in 1900 when it was all done in the daylight hours,. Tournaments in Goderich would last from a Monday morning to the fol- lowing Friday night. In 1941 he was on the rink which won the Corbin Trophy in 'Belleville and was president of the St. Petersburg Lawn Bowling Club in 1937, It was his greatest achievement to beat the singles champion of the United States in the year 1942, He might also be called one of the fathers of the Wingham Ogling Plub to bond the rinU And wh° raised 04 it was Alex and the late Billy Mitchell who canvassed for the funds $2800 # or that purpose, There are many things that could be said about this wonderful *Veteran sPortSman who refuses to grow Old but the fallowing quotation from an old newspaper tells the story for us, "The National Winter Lawn. Bowling Tournament has been oencinded. Re- counting the general results, the name of Alex g, Crawford, of, ham, Ontario, stands Out as promin- ently tie ever, The burly Scot must have been reared on oatmeal, and Hhitgrgoins'sPflauros ithaer cbaoalmStylitiae,4'fsorofhelAahkaes been winning tournaments ever since Wingham was a jungle; se that suc- cesses in the recent tournament surprised no one, There is, no use trying to gild the lily afresh, so that the recounting of the long string of bowling successes of Alexander M. Crawford on the greens of Florida and of his native heath would not only be a formidable task but an entirely superfluous one. But there is one unassailable fact standing out ova: a long term of bowling years— there are mighty few Alex Crawfords just because there are mighty few "fro/men" in the bowling game. There it is in a nut-shell! For the most part his reign here goes on unmolested." Hays—Wray The home of Mr, and Mrs. Gordon Wray was the scene of a quiet wed- ding recently, when their eldest daughter, Doris Erima, was united in marriage to William Stanley C. Hays, eldest son of and Mrs. Robert Hays, Wroxeter, Rev. E, W. Todd, of Wroxeter, officiated, The bride chose a powder blue taf- feta dress with navy accessories and wore a corsage of pink roses and white stephanotis, Her only attend- ant was the groom's sister, Mrs. Earl Young, Wingham, who wore a navy dress with red accessories and a cor- sage of red roses. The best man was the bride's brother, John Wray. The reception following the mer money, was held at Salem United Church. The young couple left for a trip to Northern Ontario, Ottawa and East- ern Ontario. On their return they will reside on the groom's farm in Howick Township. E.
