Here, it is balmy summer weather and they are throwing a frasty blanket on the weatherman by calling for help ta operate their winter pragram at the Arena that has natural, not artificial ice. Their advertisements appear on the Newcastle page. Also, any groups interested in obtaining ice lime are asked ta con- tact thie arena management committee as soon as possible. Aren't they going ta feel silly if this warm weather continues for another couple af months. NEW BACKSTOP - The Memorial Park Associa- tion's new basebaîl diamond was recently cam- pleted, including a fine wire mesh backstop, at a cost of $898.

Anyone is free ta use this fine addition to the park. LAST FLING- Over the wclekend, almost everyone must have decided ta either leave home for distant parts or have visitors from out of town, because the raads were jammed with traffic, aimost as bad as when the first Player's 200 xvas heid here. On Sunday evening around 6 o'clock it reached its peak with Highway 401 vehicles proceeding bumper to bumper and the overfiow pouring up Highway 2 until it was packed too. It was aimost as though everyone had the same idea that if they lef t early for home they might miss the heavy traffic. VACANT STORE -There will' be a touch of sadness this week for many aid timers in the community, especially Harry Allun who for over haif a century operated "The Corner Grocery" with considerable success. On Friday, an auctian sale was held bo close out the grocery aperated recently by Chester McQuinn and ail that is Ieft now is a "For Sale" sign. -- t + SILVER ANNIVERSARY .- Just 25 years ago this week, tvo new doctars were about ta arrive in tawn.
