Special visitors of note to the Branch -this year were the Royal Canadian Legion Pro- vincial President Jim Tyndall; his counter part Milton Lobstein, The American Legion Michigan State Commander; Jim Lane, The American Legion Zone Commander and their wives; and John Sheardown and his. .wife, now famous as participants imthe Ira- nian Hostage Taking Crisis. • As well as dances held at the Branch on Friday and Saturday evening, the American guests joined in for a friendship breakfast on Sunday morning, the flag raising ceremonies in Court House Park and the parade on Sunday afternoon as well as the levee at the Branch which followed the parade and catered to an overflow crowd of legionnaires and -American visitors. In appreciation of the warm comradeship that exists between Branch 109 and Legion Post 18 and to mark this annual visit to Goderich, American Legion Post 18 presented Legion Branch 109 with a pair of mounted decorative swords which will be given a place of honor in the ,Vimy Court Room of Branch 109. Of the friendly relationship that has developed over the years between the members of American Legion Post 18 and Legion Branch 109, said Provincial Legion President Jim Tyndall, "I've never seen anything like it". • Win a student work crew from Employment Centre The Canada Employment Centre for Stud!.nts in Goderich is offering you a chance to win- a Student Work Crew for half a day.

Spinning and weavirig will be demonstrate Gerry Zurbrigg will be demonstrating weaving on a 45 inch floor loom at the Huron County Pioneer Museum Craft Festival August 11 and 12. She has been weaving for about four years. She will be attending the In- termediate Weaving Course at the schoolhouse in Belwood, Ontario during the last week of July. With an interest in the old-fashioned weaving designs, Gerry tries to incorporate these in weaving fabric for modern fashions. Besides weaving on a floor loom, Gerry also makes some interesting plant hangers, using frame loom techniques on bicycle rims. Toni Vos has been a spinner and weaver for several years. She began spinning when her husband bought her a spinning wheel as a gift from Australia. Toni is also an ac- complished weaver, using a floor loom. Since Toni also does yarn dyeing (one new technique even involves using Kool-Aid), she is able to produce a finished product, which is handmade from dyeing to sewing. Toni will be demonstrating her spinning skill at the Craft Festival also., Other crafts demonstrated will include knitting on a knittingnachine, quilting and rug hooking. • C'1 ~I', � �, 1 a 'pa a Vt ,,, ,i.r 10 1.0Vi‘ 41"01 (T4 -‘414.I 4140Pfaltar THE 10 KILOMETER GODERICH CLASSIC RUN Co -Sponsored By Athletes Foot-Suncoast Mali-Goderich In Conjunction With Thg Festival Of Arts And Crafts OPEN TO ALL RUNNERS & JOGGERS 6 Categories: MEN'S OPEN WOMEN'S OPEN MASTERS (40 yrs. & over) YOUTH (17 yrs. & under) GODERICH RESIDENT (male) GODERICH RESIDENT(female) Saturday, July 21 . loam STARTING PLACE: Ernie's Roadhouse, 168 West Street FINISHING PLACE: Goderich Municipal Office, 57 West Street PRIZES: "5620.00 in Merchandise to first, second & third place finishers in each category, provided by Athlete's Foot, Goderich.
