ARCHIBALD Mayor Str s CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1983—PAGE 3A ge creatures visit F uronview HURONVIEW - Ghosts, witches and goblins were out in great numbers as they arrived in the Huronview auditorium on Oct. 31 to entertain residents. This was the annual Halloween party and Clinton Public School children from Grades 1, 2 and 3 along with their teachers Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Silcox presented a delightful program. Mary Gibbings welcomed the visitors who came dressed in all types of costumes. They recited, sang songs and gave presentations on Halloween. Three young ghosts did a cute number by themselves. Judges Annie McNichol, Margaret McLaughlin, Jennie Chesney and Golda Taylor had a difficult task to determine the winners. The costumed young people were divided into categories and the winners included: Kathy Andrews, prettiest costume; Kevin Mead, the ugliest; Mervyn Gas, scariest; Nicole Harris, the most original; Pam Mills, the best disguise; Vanessa Harris, the best character; Donna Bosman, the best imitation; Ben Lobb, the best creativity and imagination. All the children were given caramel popcorn balls, made by Helen Bradley. Annie McNichol thanked the teachers and pupils for their entertainment and to P len for making the treats. To see these young people dressed up brought back many happy memories for the residents. On Halloween evening a few costumed characters wandered through the halls and got a few laughs from the residents. On Nov. 1 many gathered in the activity room, teamed up in pairs and took off on a scavenger hunt through the building. The pair who brought back the required number of articles and arrived at the auditorium first within a time limit, were declared winners. The lucky team was Greta Lam- mie and Margaret McQueen. A lot of ground was covered, but it was fun. A van load of residents took off on Nov. 3 for a ride to London. Some had ap- pointments and others just enjoyed the scenic drive. Mid -week Bible study was also held on Nov. 3 and was conducted by Mrs. M. Prouty. On Sunday morning Rev. Norman Pick from Clinton led in the worship service. A warm welcome is extended to Mr. Louis Masnica of Crediton who has come to reside at Huronview. To the family of the late Mrs. Daisy Torrance, sincere sympathy is expressed.
