A call came from I nisfree Island that a mother was expecting a baby. Plan Eight was immediately put into operation! J 0 s i e and his Pilot headed off f or Tubberkeen f or the doctor, the doctor called t he Arranmor e lifeboat which was quickly on the scene. Meanwhile Dungloe ambulance rushed to the 'Port and t ook the mother to Letterkenny hospital where she became the proud mother of a beautift girl. There is a lot of talk of reviving the Keadue r aces . It was always a big daY with the bookies and horses came from all over Ireland. The only troubl e now is the strand has moved to Meenbanad! A new cinema has opened in Burtonport and large crowds are attending. The boat-building class at Rampart is nearly at a close. 4 boats have been built and Patrick Allen, Meenmore deserves a lot of credit. Well, about t he story to be continued from last month's i ssue; the English Lady got back to the chalet and despite the chalet being locked she got in and got her cases. She then got a taxi to drive her to Maghery where she came up with her sad story to some guy who fell for it. Anyway, I will tell the rest next montht After the Co. Council erected wooden barriers at Forker's, Glenahilt i t's a pity they are being continuously knocked down and broken. Keadue Band had a tremendous victory recently in Falcarragh i n the first cor+est organised by the Donegal Flut e Band Associ ation.
