' After the band played “Waltz- ing Matilda", our attractive visi- tor from down-under said she’d never met a more friendly bunch of people in her travels [than those she had encountered ‘m Richmond Hill. Considering the state of the commonwealth it can be said that we have need for such visitors who travel around spreading the good word. Members of the Newmarket. Aurora. Woodbridge and Rich- mond Hill Legion branches gathered at Legion Court last Friday to enjoy the first Rich- mond Hill ladies‘ auxiliary zone sports dance. Most of the Le- gion sporting dignitaries were present for the Occasion and these included Auxiliary Zone Sports Officer Orlena Metcalf. Sports Officers Mildred Barker and Adelaide Mills. Deputy District Sports Officer Earle James was also present. along with District Color Sergeant Stan Knapp and District Mem- bership Chairman George Wood. The evening began quietly as the locals awaited the arrival of members from outlying areas. Freddie Bird and his merry band of four played slow quick- steps to a solitary couple, and it looked for a while as if a dull event was in store. But then the buses began to arrive. The first from Woodbridge. the sec- ond from Aurora and points north. The band struck up a lively “Winchester Cathedral" and all of a sudden the banquet hall came alive. President Lucy Rickard.

Conversations at the various tables included everything from Mrs. Doo-dad‘s latest hair-do to the provincial elections. One comrade from afar asked how come the Legion was sporting political colors in its local court. and another replied that it really wasn‘t; because the Legion was a non-political or- ganizatiOn. He said the lower‘ half of Legion Court was zoned‘ strictly commercial and was therefore non-Legion. Politics being commercial. any political party. furniture dealer. real es-. tate broker or whatever. could operate within the Legion law, or any other law come to that. The first spec prize of the evening was awarded to Bob Thornington and his wife June. Bob is a well known local steeplejaek well used to high places such as TV towers and smokestacks, and is always the President Lucy Rickard.

But by a political party‘s pres- ence this did not mean that the Legion supported them.

Plates of cold roast beef. ham. pickles. buttered bread and home-made salads were laid out among the urns of steaming hot coffee. and everyone joined the line for first grabs. Thanks Everyone was gone by 12.30 am. and the banquet hall once again became silent. There was nothing left except the echoes of a convivial company which had gathered to dance and talk about everything except sports. And in a few hours the Legion cleaners and the ladies’ auxili- ary would came in to clean up the debris and make ready for another day.
