Thornhill Senior Citizens elect executiVe and plan activities By Margaret Govan North Thornhill correspondent The gemerai meeting of the Thomhili and District Senior Citizens took place October 16 following a brief executive meeting. The latter was mainly concerned with organization for the Big Euchre on October 22, and the draw which was also scheduled for that day. It was decided that should any of the outâ€"of- town purchasers of Draw Tickets be lucky when the named prizes were drawn, those prizes would be sent to them, that is, unless as in the case of a plant in a hanging basket, it was impractical to forward them. Vouchers would also be forwarded to any lucky persons.
