There are many other ways you may become part of this activity. Once you ' re elected you can chop wood , sweep roads, build walls, dig holes, and do other fun and games things. So if you are one of those girls or boys who like to do a good deed for Cardigan, then do try our Work Detail program, especially if you dig work. - Charles MacGill
THE HOUR CLUB The Cardigan Mountain Hour Club is a club which tries to go up and down the mountain in less than an hour. The record climb has been 47 minutes. On July 9th a group attempted to break the record but only made it up and down in 53 minutes and 10 seconds. This did not break the record, but the group did become a true "hour club ir group of climbers. - Billy Pond GREEN GIRLS TOP WHITE Tuesday night at 7:00, the girls softball game began. With ten green players and ten white players, all positions were filled. After the tossing of the coin, the whites were at bat, and the greens in the field. The pitcher for both teams was Mr. Folsom. Mrs. Folsom acted as scorekeeper, timekeeper, and batting order keeper. After the White's first episode, in which they gained two runs, the greens were up at bat. With Nancy Doonan up first, there was hardly a chance and naturally she got an out. However, with two more outs to go, the greens had a good chance and they pulled in a couple of runs. The second inning was certainly a thriller. At its conclusion, the greens were trailing with a score of 6-2. This is just when the whites stopped, they did not gain any more runs, for the remainder of the evening. Suddenly the greens got wise, they started to gain runs, as if they were going out of style. In the last inning they scored about 30 runs. A score of 32-6 ended the game, in favor of those mighty greens. - Nancy Doonan
