Friday night and Saturday numerous people slipped their blades on, and took to the ice skating for miles down the lake on a sheet of ice like glass. A dance at the Latcham Centre Friday evening drew a small but enthusiastic crowd. Atom to be Saturday found a number of the events being cancel- led. The Snowmobile Rally was cancelled due to lack of snow and the possible risks involved on the trail. Also cancelled were the girls broomball game and the parachute jump, due to the low ceiling, and as men- tioned earlier the logging camp supper. Sea Cadets, from Scar- boro, Whitby, Oshawa and Port Perry put on a good show of strength during their tug-a-war competitions held on the ice with Scarboro emerging the winner. The Riging of a Gin com- petition proved to be one of much interest.

When speaking with mem- bers of the C of C Winter Committee, the Star learned they felt the carnival was held too late this year and the spirits of the people were not in a carnival mood. With the mild weather, and the numerous cancellations due to the weather it was felt that the carnival may, be held in January next year. It was the general feeling of many of the Chamber of Commerce members that although the crowds were down on all events, those that had participated as competitors or spectators had enjoyed themselves. of 0.A.S.A. in Oshawa The 52nd annual Ontario Amateur Softball Conven- tion will be held at the Oshawa Holiday Inn on April 5-6-1.
