MILLS Correspondent Ajax, July 7.--Rain or shine, a gala strawberry festival and enter- tainment is scheduled for this Friday, July 7 at St. Bernadette's Hall, Ajax, from 7:30 on. There is no need for the ladies to worry about the dessert course for Friday evening's meal, if they just: bring their families down to St. Berna- dette's, where they may regale themselves on strawberries, ice cream, cakes, cookies and bever- ages. In addition, they will enjoy seeing in person Ted Murphy of CKEY, who is "Jay" of the "Jay and Ginger" show. Also, Howard Mawson, star of the Eaton Operatic Society and concert artist of the C.B.C., will sing, accompanied by Mrs. Greer, accomplished local pianist. By popular request, "Slim and Shorty" will repeat their dizzy antics of the "Television Revue," and will bring the evening of fun to a close with a sing-song, VISITOR FROM OVERSEAS Mrs, Pat Sheehan, Glynn Avenue, had the pleasure of welcoming her mother from England a few days ago.
