LJ] PAGE 6 TERRACE BAY NEWS MARCH 2, 1972' LEGION BONSPIEL HUGE SUCCESS Saturday was a Majic Day, an incredible day as only Smiling Bonspiel Chairman C. Koski, will tell you. It was a day of laughter, good natured joshing, curling and alot of stiff muscles for forst time curlers. Stiff muscles, who cares when you can win a prize, even when you lose. Mr. Rolly Sinotte donated the prizes and also pres- ented a few. A Event winners = Bunny Hayes, Betty Randa, Paul Coupal, Jean Fisher. Runners up were Dave Desros- iers, Jeanette Gunter, Sax Lundberg, Jackie Sopel. B Event winners = Tom Latour, Aldea Churney, Joe Kennedy, Peg Regis. Runners up were George Churney Diane Claney, Cy Brassard, and Eve Falzetta. Nov- elty prizes went to Jim Beddard's rink and George 'Dakin's rink. Fantaboulous says, Jim and George, and only they alone can explain what they won. But why? -- Well ! Following the Bonspiel the curlers all congregated at the Legion Hall for a Smorgasbord dinner, convened by Koski, Smith, Macleod, and Dodge. Although the music was lively, some very slow dancing with some very sore limbs were noted on the dance floor. Music provided by G. Churney, L. Pin- eault, and B. Megraw. The highlite of the day was when the King and Queen arrived to throw the first rock. The Queen Marge Hamilton with her Lady in Waiting ( Scotty ) and the King , Sam Boyd Junior, with his valet = Ethel. Oh, to be King and Queen for a day! What a dream! BRIDGE PARTY SLATED ON MARCH 22ND The Ladies Auxiliary of the Royal Canadian Legion held their February meeting with Mrs. D. Gunter presiding. After the various committees submitted #h their reports, minutes read, and financial statements approved, a short discussion was held to hold a bridge party in the United Church Basement on March 22nd.
