RECREATION TOPICS
by IVAN KERSELL, Wingham Recreation Director
On Sunday Wingham was
host to a very successful Youth
Conference, one of the special
events sponsored by the Lake
Huron Zone of the Ontario Rec-
reation Association. This was
the fourth such conference held
in as many years.
The conference was held in
Wingham District High School
and was planned jointly by the
Wingham Recreation Depart-
ment and the Wingham Teen
Town Council, The Recreation
Department would like to ex-
press appreciation to the Teen
Town Council executive for
their help, because without
their assistance the conference
would not have been the suc-
cess it was.
Delegates from Exeter, Lis-
towel, RCAF Station Clinton,
Hanover, Walkerton, Durham
and Owen Sound attended. The
theme was "Better Program
Planning".
Robert Secord, Supervisor
of Field Service for Commun-
ity Programs Division was the
guest speaker. He spoke on
"Principles of Program Plan-
ning". Mr. Secord was intro-
duced by Arden Spiller, district
representative of Community
Programs Division.
At the conclusion of the
speaker's remarks the delegates
were divided into discussion
groups to analyze the problems
of various clubs.
A very fine turkey dinner
was provided by the United
Church Women.
A hootenany was held in the
evening when the We Three
folksingers from Drantford en-
tertained. Don Malpass led
those in attendance in a sing-
song. The young people thor-
oughly enjoyed the evening's
entertainment which ended at
9 o'clock.

This Saturday the Minor
Hockey Association will sell
Christmas cake to residents of
Wingham in order to raisemon-
ey for the season's hockey pro-
gram. Please support them by
purchasing a cake when ayoung
hockey player calls at your
door. The Minor Hockey As-
sociation is doing a commend-
able job in providing organized
hockey for boys, and this year
for girls, in this town. It pro-
vides the young people with a
healthy, wholesome activity to
fill their idle hours. If this
fund raising effort of the Minor
Hockey Assoc. is anything less
than successful the Recreation
Department will have to step

On Winning Spree
One of the three teams from
the Wingham Ladies' Auxiliary
to the Legion won first place in
the bowling tournament at Ex-
eter last Wednesday, in which
about 30 teams completed. A
Mitchell team was second and
Strathroy, third.
Copping the Molson's Tro-
phy for Zone C and the Zone
Cl Trophy, donated by the Ex-
eter Branch were Mrs. Bob Ir-
vine, Mrs. Ted English, Mrs.
Helen Casemore, Mrs. Bill
Walden, Mrs. Harold Reming-
ton and Mrs. John Strong. The
ladies also won bedspreads as
first prizes.
Helen Casemore had a field
day as far as prizes were con-
cerned, both in bowling skill
and just plain luck. She bowl-
ed a 303 for high single, win-
ning a lovely black pullover.
Then she won a draw on a white
cardigan and Helen, Mrs. Bill
Walden and Mrs. David Croth-
ers each won door prizes.
Now, this in itself could be
considered as a fairly lucky day,
but Helen sat in for a few
games of bingo and won a cup
and saucer and topped the loot
off with a dish in the penny
auction. What a day she could
have had betting on the ponies!

PACK A
The regular meeting of Cub
Pack 'A' was held at the Scout
House with 36 boys and four
leaders present. Bagheera took
the opening exercises and Green
Sixer Randy Pepper led the
Grand Howl, After books were
marked and dues collected, Ba -
loo, Kaa and Paksha inspected
the Pack.
A rousing game of pass the
clothes pin (to music) was
thoroughly enjoyed by the boys.
Each leader took a group for
instruction period. Campfire
followed and Baloo told a story
about "Mike's Good Turn". It
proved to Mike that each time
he did a good deed someone
sees and appreciates his efforts.
Badges were presented to
several boys during closing cer-
emonies. Ted Appleby and
Keith Hodgkinson each earned
swimmer's badge; Murray Leg-
gatt, cyclist badge, Bernie and
Jim Bailey and Neil Appleby,
pet keeper's badges; Jim, Rob-
ert and Doug Vanderwoude,
gardener badges; Brian Gordon,
collector's badge and House Or-
derly and gardener badges to
Gene Porter.
"What's new around your
house?" said a lady to a small
boy.
"I don't know," he replied
sadly, "They spell everything!"

After fifteen consecutive
years on television, Red Skel-
ton is only gaining in popular-
ity and increasing the size of
his audience. He is the master
of them all and the public real-
izes this and continues to re-
main loyal to him. He is in
his 13th season with the CBS in
the U, S. and a few years ago,
Canadian television decided to
include him in the weekly sche-
dule. Last year they dropped
him, thinking his popularity
had waned; they imported in his
place the hour-long Danny Kaye
Show but discovered even the
great Kaye was a poor substi-
tute, and this season the master
is back, making audiences
laugh, ..and cry, . , as no one
else can. His 'silent spots' are
still the highlight of most of
his shows; he is a marvellous
pantomimist.
Red began his career when
he was ten years old, as a gui-
tar player and singer. He was
born in Indiana in (he thinks)
1913. Well, if you had been as
busy as he has, you'd have for-
gotten too! At any rate, it was
a break in Toronto that first
started him as a comedian and
led to work in radio and motion
pictures. During the Second
World War he performed more
than 3,800 shows for service-
men.
In private life, Red is a
deeply religious man, although
he belongs to no specific de-
nomination. On the grounds of
his beautiful California home
stands a life-size marble figure
of Christ. In the last 20 years
he has donated about one mil-
lion dollars to charity, never
claiming tax deductions.
Seven years ago, tragedy
struck when his only son Rich-
ard, died of leukemia at the
age of nine. It was a blow that
came close to leaving Red a
bitter old man, but he began
to drown himself in his work,
the business of making others

self. Before his death, Richard.
who knew he was not going to
live long, asked his father what
happens when people die. Red
explained that it was like a
parade going by, with people
joining it along the way. From
this answer came Red's frequent
ly-perfotmed pantomime of an
old man watching the parade
of life go by, marching toward
death, an act which may bring
laughter to some, and tears to
some, but which most certain-
ly must bring back many sad
memories to Red himself.
Red lives a relatively easy
life now, and no one deserves
it more than he. He works on-
lytwo days a week planning
and filming his show, spends
the remainder of his time with
his wife of nineteen years,
Georgia, and his 17 -year-old
daughter Valentina, just relax-
ing, or painting, which he does
extremely well. Last year,
some of his paintings were plac-
ed
lated on exhibition. Thank good-
ness that he did not become a
painter; the world would have
been so much poorer without
the master.

It wasn't flowery or senti-
mental, but Patrick Watson's
moving tribute to Peter Mc-
Farlane on 'This Hour Has Sev-
en Days', told what many felt.
Mr. McFarlane was one of the
four men who lost their lives
in northern Lake Huron last
week. He worked at a Toron-
to television station and was
largely responsible for naming
the popular CBC show that paid
him respect.

Saturday will be a highlight
for the young fry, who will
want to watch the 61st annual
Santa Claus Parade on CBC -TV
(Channel 8), Beginning at 9.45
a.m. (9.30 on CTV, Channel
13), the parade, entitled 'San-
ta's Land of Dreams' will be-
gin the six -mile jaunt down
Toronto's streets. It will be
more than a mile in length and
will take thirty minutes to pass
a given point. There will be
more than 22 floats, 15 bands,
and dozens of clowns, and it
will be described by CBC an-
nouncer Lloyd Robertson, and
of all things, a turtle! Actual-
ly, it will be Howard and your
young 'Razzle Dazzle' viewers
will know who he is,

Another special to be seen
within the next week, and this
is MUST viewing, is "Belafonte
at the O'Keefe" with one of the
finest entertainers in the world,
Harry Belafonte, His television
appearances are few and farbe-
tween so it will be a rare treat
to watch him for one hour on
'Show of the Week', Monday,
Nov. 15. The show was video-
taped before an audience of
4, 000 at Toronto's O'Keefe
Centre when he appeared there
earlier this year. A guest will
be Nana Mouskouri, the Greek
singer who made her North Am-
erican debut this year.
The soldier had been out on a
spree, and to finish with, he
hired a taxi. Unfortunately,
when the taxi came to a stop,
he found that he hadn't a cent
left and he explained to the
driver: "That's the position,
old man, and you can't get
blood out of a stone."
"No," agreed the 6 -foot -4 -
inch taxi driver, rolling up his
. sleeves ominously, "but what
makes you think you're a
stone?"
