Last Thursday - Peggy Bot-
tom, Recreation Co-ordinator
from Loncton, had the ladies at
Women's Day Out chattering
about "Influencing Our. Own
Community Action".
The women formed
discussion groups and Peggy
gave them three .questions' to
consider: (1) Identify, concerns;
(2) What to do about them; and
(3) What are the barriers to
stop action.
Three main issues wer.e.,
discussed. (1) Possibility of ,a
Recreation Centre like the,
Y.M,;Y.W.C.A. for the whole ,
community; (2) Re -opening of
the Airport; and (3) Main-
taining Goderich's slogan:
"Prettiest Town in Canada".
Actions required were to, (1)
Form a group of interested
iUzens;,(2) Have an opinion
poll to present to Council
outlining what people want to
have; (3) Improve the main-
terkaince of sidAalks and,
road's; (4) Clean up Goderich
streets and beaches; and - (5)

The main barrier to action
was the lack of money and in-
teret.

Broadway run. It's based on
the play, The Fourposter, and
tells the story :of a young
couple's life together from
honeymoon through paren-
thood to old age f when they say
a nostalgic farewell to the
house (and the fourposter bed)
they knew as nolyweds.
Mary,Mary is second on the
season. It's about Contrary
Mary who cannot resist making
jokes even when it threatens
to break up her marriage. A
thoroughly witty comedy by
Don' t-Eat-The-DaiSiest Jean
Kerr, it had a Broadway run of
three solid years.
The third offering is The
Rainmaker, a beautifully
romantic comedy by N. Richard
Nash. It's about a Western
ranch family during a great
drought and its experience with
a fast -talking stranger who
promises to make rain for $100.
Number four on the Season is
an old stage and movie classic,
Stage Door, by George Kauf-
4'nlan and Edna Ferber, A

. Councillor Bill Clifford,
chairman of the harbor division
of council, said that soundings
taken at the mouth of the
Maitland River reveal there
are channels in the sandbar to
a depth of five feet.
; According to Clifford, these
channels are deep enough and
wide enough to handle most of
the boats who make their way
through there. He als9. said
that until n sonie government
funding was found for a major
project of piling and dredging
in the,,river mouth, taxpayers' -
money should probably not be
.used for this project.

"make' it" on the stage.
For the first time on the
Playhouse -stage are two master
writers of comedy. Noel
Coward's masterpiece of
British humour, Private Lives,
will be the fifth offering and it
will be shown (in it oniinal
30's mode.
In the sixth ilot is. Neil
Simon's super -hit, Last of the
Re Hot Lovers, It's about
tiarney, a happily married man
who 'suddenly wants to become
a "swinger". What makes the
play so funny is the fact that all
Barney's, attempt's at conquest
fail.
Keeping on the marriage
theme - which dominates the
season's plays - is Marriage Go
Round. It's called a hilariou.$
diatribe on marriage and was a
Broadway .hit starring
Claudette Colbert and Charles
Boyer. According to its author,
Leslie Stevens, it should' be
seen by people who are married
- or who might be.
Rounding' out the Season is
the world famous temperance
drama, Ten Night q in a Bar
Room. .When first produced
more than oa century ago, it sent
its audiences. into tears of
despair; today's audiences,
however, will probably react
with tears of laughter. By
William Pratt, Esq. -(and adap-
ted by James Murphy with
music by Erna Van Daele), it is
a melodrama with all the
•°,igrand style of a Grand Era, the
1890's.
The eight week Season of
professional summer theatre
opens on June 26 and will play
Wednesday to Saturday in
'Grand Bend, Sunday qyeni_ngs,
in Kincardine.
