About 40 handicapped children,
tete With their parents and
friends, spent a delightful after-
noon as guests of the Wingham
Sportsmen's Club here Sunday
When the club sponsored its fifth
annual fishing contest.
Quests included a bus load of
children from the Midwestern
Regional Children's Centre at
Palmerston, the group being in
charge of Ken Melville of the cen
tre staff. Others attended from
Golden Circle School here, and
there were a number of other
children from Teeswater and this
area.
A special batch of rainbow
trout was purchased by the club
from a private hatchery and used
Garde Flyers
ustart season
to stock the club pond. Evidently
the pond was generously stocked,
because shouts of glee frequently
punctuated the fine afternoon as
youngsters landed everything
fnom two-inch minnows to 13 -inch
trout.
Members of the club were well
satisfied with the turnout. Guests
were more than satisfied with the
good fishing and refreshments
served by the ladies in the club-
house.
There are about 675 species of
gymnosperms (plants with es-
sentially naked seeds) and more
than 250,000 species of angio-
sperms (floweringplants or trees'
with seeds and fruits).

In May. 1919, a small biplane
took off from Vancouver to make

culties along the west coast and
landed in the main street of Port
Angeles, Wash.

"My Three Sons" has been a
family institution for so many
years we can barely remember
when it began: as long as I can
remember. it seems, Fred Mac-
Murray has been there, strug-
gling with three boys and Uncle
Charlie; MacMurray's name has
become a household word. At the
end of this season, the series ends
and cast members move onto
other things. But most of them
will never be anything but mem-
bers of the Douglas family to
faithful viewers.
'Steve Douglas' (MacMurray)
began as a young widower with
three boys, Mike (Tim Consi-
dine), Robbie (Don Gray) and
Chip (Stanley Livingstone); all
• were under. the watchful ,eye of
'Bub' (William Frawley) who
made meals, cleaned house and
kept the boys in order when their
father was involved with bis job
as aeronautical engineer. It was
a great set-up: the boys got into
all kinds of scrapes and Steve in
his easy-going manner and Bub,
in his excitable 'Mother Hen' atti-
tude, tried to straighten things
out.
Things were just ,getting inter-
esting romantically with older
sot, Mike when he decided he
Wanted out so away went Consi-
dine and in carne Stanley Living -
stone's real-life brother to play
his little brother Ernie; after all,

matter what! Then exited Wil -
ham Frawley and in came Wil-
liam Demarest as Uncle Charlie
and the series kept getting more
popular by lhe week.
Enter romance with Rob who -is
now at the marrying age and they
d:p into the musical King family
to tind Tina Cole (one of the King
isters' daughters) and marry
;ter off to Rob in ,another year,
;cript writers make them the
parents of another -set of 'Three
Sons' ---triplets! And where do we
go from there?
Enter romance with Steve and
beautifill young widow Barbara
(Beverley Garland) who has a
young daughter Dodi. And Chip is
growing up and has a steady girl
and elopes and etc. etc. and so
forth until there are so many
people milling around that you
hardly remember who married
who and what kids belong
where! Seems everyone liked it
bet ter when just the 'men' ran the
show; it was a bit more out -of -
the -ordinary then and I suppose
single parents struggling with a
family of their own, identified
with Douglas. At any rate the
show is being cancelled for lack
of audience appeal. Tina Cole will
probably go back to singing;
Beverley Garland will go back to
Grade B movies and the boys will
go ba,k to school! 'MacMurray?
he's going back to Walt Disney
where he is scheduled to make a
Movie, 4 family -type th., along
the linoo his atsent.rnirzded
proferor spoof. In a quiet type of
rid,
his wife, dancer June Haver, are
much loved in Hollywood. He
won't be out of a job long as long
as Walt Disney's studios continue
to produce family shows, one of
the few bright spots in today's
movie world.
Speaking -of absent-minded
professors and cancellations,
professor Jimmy Stewart is an-
other who is losing his show; it's
young, only lasted one season.
He's great and the series should
•have lasted, but somehow it just
didn't click. James Garner made
it big in "Maverick" but his new
series "Nichols" sure hasn't done
much for him; it bites the dust
too. Roger Moore and Tony Cur-
tis starred in "The Persuaders";
both will have to look for new
jobs. And another longer -lasting
one, "Bewitched" will also -get
the axe at the end of this season. I
don't know how Doris Day and
Mary Tyler Moore happen to
stick it out; it has to be the stars,
it sure can't be the scripts! De-
spit6 what their writers think, life
is not one big round of coffee
breaks, lunches, meeting wealthy
princes and travelling to exotic
lands! Why don't they tell it likepit
is?
The St. John Ambulance Brig-
ade wear the familiar St. John
uniform when on public duty and
provide First Aid coverage at a
variety, of public events—par-
ades, football games, fairs, etc.
They also help in hospitals
clinics, •homes for the aged and
other places where knowledge of
First Aid and Home Nursing is
valuable.
