Wingham Advance-Times, 1981-07-29, Page 10Advance -Times, July 29, 1981 desire to continue his education and become better qualified to provide nursing care for the sick will drive Wayne Cook back to school later this month. Until then he continues to work as an ambulance attendant at the Wingham and District Hos- pital, a position he has held for slightly over two years. Wayneis no stranger to this area, having been raised near Belgrave. One of a family of seven boys and one girl, he attended the • Belgrave Public School for two years, then completed his elementary education at East Wawanosh Public School. A Grade 12 graduate of F. E. Madill Secondary School, he took a year-long course in ambulance and emergency care at Cones- toga College, Kitchener, then passed his provincial EMCA (Emergency -Medical Care Assistant) examinations. He also completed a course in CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) . At the end of August Wayne will leave Wingham and become a resident of own hospital hallways Kitchener where he has been accepted in the Registered Nurses' course at Conestoga. During the course, which lasts two and a half years, he hopes to work part-time as an ambulance attendant. When he completes his edu- cation, he hopes to find employment that will com- bine his nurses' training with a favorite hobby, traveling. Other pastimes he enjoys are horseback riding, gardening, listening to a variety of music and "just lying on the. beach doing absolutely nothing". Looking back on his life, Wayne has learned by ex- perience and advises young people to "stay in school and get your education". Though he looks forward with en- thusiasm to his new challenge, he knows it will be difficult to be a student again and is aware of the hard work involved in furthering or updating one's education. Patients who have been helped by him and staff who have worked with him will miss Wayne but wish him well on his new venture.

Outdoor theatre for all ages 'Horseplay` is too food to miss By Henry Hess Brace yourself, Blyth; Wingharti, get ready, and Mount Forest, your turn is coming. You are about to, be exposed to "Horseplay", one of the funniest and . most unusual" comedies ever to come down the road. Come down the road is exactly what this show does, for "Horseplay" is produced by • wandering thespians calling themselves Caravan Stage company who travel from town to town in horse- drawn caravans. On any convenient field they circle the wagons, rig the props and lighting, and create a magic ring of enchantment. inside the ring the audience scatters on lawn chairs or blankets and there isn't a bad seat in the house. No matter where you are, the action, and the music go on all around you on a variety of stages in and above the circle. If not the only theatre company of its type inthe world, certainly this is one f the best. "Horseplay" itself is a rollicking musical tale of four draft horses and a fiesty grandmother determined to keep them on the farm and out of the slaughterhouse. It is funny, punny and at times outrageous as it skewers anyone and anything that comes within range: bureaucrats, '�, police, oil companies, auto companies, politics, religion and the various idiosyncracies of the modern age. The horses, 'Chevy,,. Lin- coln, Dodge •;and Ford (Rambler has an'early exit, caPPed bar irli surely the. punniest eultl x �.' ver pen- ned), are thetstars of the piece, played "'hy Suzanne Morgan, .Ross Imrie, Phil Savath and Peter Anderson, while Sandra Nicholls as Grandma Mulvaney is.worth the price of admission by herself. Supporting actors are excellent, including Philip Kuntz as the ne'er do well son-in-law who hopes to sell the horses, Nans Kirby and Judi Young as hiS pro -horse wife and daughter, and Paul Kirby, dressed in a haber- dasher's nightmare, as Elmer Frankenmuth, the villainous meatpacker scheming to get his hooks on the horses. The horse masks worn by the actors are a triumph of the costumer's art. They are completely convincing and manage to convey character and emotion, while at the same time they do not stifle the voices of the actors wearing them. The play moves quickly, with . a 15 -minute inter - STORY TIME—Esther Nethery had the attention of all her young charges during story time at the playground program in Riverside Park — until a photographer wandered along and distracted some of them. In the group are Carla Mowbray, Jennie Remington, Jenni Kerr, Travis Baler, Lisa Keay and Alisa Curzon. Mission — when we discover this theatre company carries its own concession stand, virtually the only break in the action. The music, both instrumental and vocal, is excellent and complements Peter Anderson and Phil Savath's script. _ . QlMously when you must carry everything with you from town to town, con- stantly erecting and taking down, the sets cannot be too - elaborate, elaborate, and they're not. They are just- sufficient to suggest what they represent; the skill of the .. actors, good costumes, light- . ing andsound effects, and the imagination of the viewer fill any gaps. It all adds up to a good laugh, and only a couple of discordant notes keep "Horseplay" from being• unreservedly top-notch family entertainment. Given the number of young children in the audience at Seaforth last Friday night, the language should have been cleaned up in several places — though it certainly AUCTION SALES EVENING auction sale of consignments of house furnishings and antiques will be held in the Teeswater Arena on Monday, Aug, 17, starting at 6 p.m. Auc- tioneers, Wallace Ballagh, Teeswater 392-6170 and Grant McDonald, Ripley 395- 5353.
