Bob and Sharon Wilson with Bill and Marg Fleming attended the Listowel Mixed'Spiel and in reporting on their day, they said they had a good time and they made eight strangers very happy — they lost their last two games. A team of men attended the Figure skating dub news Although this is the figure skating column, headlines this week should read "Bantam hockey tournament cancelled,' figure skating classes will continue unin- ter.cepted."
