'Witness' is good entertainment
By Yvonne Reynolds
GRAND BEND - The Huron
Country Playhouse opened its
1989 season on July 28 with a
winning formula. One of Agatha
Christie's most intriguing mystery
stories was skilfully unfolded by a
competent cast.
The plot revolves around Leonard
Vole, a young man with more
charm than money, who is accused
of murdering a wealthy middle-aged
spinster. The action moves be-
tween the law office of Sir Wilfrid
Robarts, KC, and a courtroom in
London, England's Old Bailey. Ali
the red herrings are tossed out, and
loose ends tied up, in the explosive
climax.
Vernon Chapman as Robarts is
the epitome of an able and accom-
plished British barrister. Larry
Aubrey is imminently believable
in the role of Robarts partner Mr.
Mayhew. The two engage in some
effective stage bits over a humidor
of pipe tobacco.
Helen Beavis is completely con-
vincing as housekeeper Janet
MacKenzie, seeking revenge by
putting the accused in as bad a light
as possible.
Ian Deakin as the ingratiating Le-
onard Vole captures our sympathy,
and our belief in his innocence.
Others whose talents propel the
story along are John Gardiner as
crown prosecutor, and Frank Aldous
as the jud,Fe.
Actors in the smaller roles also
turn in sound performances.
SHDHS student Julie Merner
makes her professional acting debut
as "the other woman".
The only weak performance
comes from Norah Kennedy as the
accused's wife. Part of the fault
may lie with the huge yellow
cloche hat she wears, which ob-
scures her face and detracts from her
credibility.
The set itself should be included
in the list of stars. The designer is
to be commended for the authentic -
looking courtroom, and the use of a
revolve as a spectacular addition in
the third act.
Adding to the interest is a jury
Exeter Villa news
EXETER - Hello from everyone
at the Villa. What a busy month
June was. We are so glad it re-
mained cool for most of our activi-
ties.
As a result of our fund raising ac-
tivities we will be able to send
$485 to the Alzheimer Society.
Thank you to everyone who helped
us reach that total.
Last week was our week for
birthday parties. The Nursing
Home helped Gladys Haynes and
Alma Nottingham celebrate. We
were proud of the strawberry cake
which started out as an experiment
and became a real favourite. The
Rest •Home celebrated Bill White's
brithday last month.
Residents gathered for a sing
song and sampled the rhubarb cake.
We were really seasonal with our
cakes this month.
Happy birthday this week to staff
members Ruth Timmermans and
Teri McGregor.
Rev. Vipperman conducted our
last weekly worship service until
fall. Our service last week included
Communion. There will be three
services during the summer; but we
will miss seeing our ministers
weekly. We hope they have a happy
and safe slimmer.
The winning ticket for the crochet
afghan was drawn on Friday. The
winner was Linda Foran.
Thought for the week: Why docs
everyone want to be in the front of
the bus, the rear of the church and
the middle of the road?

en's Ministries, from the Exeter
Pentecostal Tabernacle meeting was

The roll call was taken by Shir-
ley Prouty and answered by a scrip-
ture verse on "Bride". There were 13
present. The business was then
transacted. We remembered a birth-
day of Debbie Dunscombe from
Manitowadge with a card and gift.
Marion McLean read an article
concerning Billy Graham's Cru-
sades. .
Marion Triebner read a letter from
Ellen Stevenson. Her emphasis was
a call to prayer. Christians should
remain "Abiding in Christ".
Ruth McLaren who was the
speaker of the afternoon read Psalm
ch. 91 out of the Bible. She also
mentioned the verse, "Train up a
child in the way he should go, and'
