Last month we heard how one Dore married couple stay up until 5.00 modulating on their C.B. and how one woman modulater in her sleep. Now Noreen is modulating in the toilet! Is tbat a four? Loch An luir The local children's band have added several more honours to their great list of achi~vements by capturing first prize at Rossnowlagh and Filcarrach, and narrol<ly missine at Burtonport where they came second to Dore. Out of five competitions this year they have captured four first prizes and a second prize. All this is due to the hard work of Jim McGinty as their music teacher has.put into their practices. · Eel fishine has taken a new lease of life on the lake when a party of eel fishers captured eleven stone of eels recently. Using a long line, they caught very fine specimens arui they are selling at very attractive prizes. It also helps trout fishing as it leaves more feeding for trout. The committee in charge of the "booster aerial" on Cnoc na nAgall are well ahead with the arrangements. When completed, the houses in the area will get · five stations and a lot of houses already have ordered five televisions -to cater for everybody's tastes.

The variety to give the best results so far is the Hay-Queens - although they were not ready to dig in Hay. The people of Loch an Iuir offer their heartiest congratulations to the new ~~yor of the Rosses Hichael Hanlon. There is no truth in the rumour that he said he would do nothing for Loch an Iuir because he only got 90p from them. He well deserves to be 1-~yor as he has worked very hard for everything that is good for the Rosses.
