The four are now facing criminal charges. This sojrt of occurrancg is fairly common in all areas where cattle are raised and is becoming a fairly large problem. There have been many such cases reported here in the last year, which usually are not concluded, as there is little or nothing to go on. The significance of this particular case was the concern of a person driving in the area, and witnc''c!_'ng the event, as well as seeing the v icle. It was only because of his prompt actions in advising u’s that the culprits were apprehended and are now facing charges. This shows bow a watchful eye can mean success in catching criminals and also pre-" venting crime in the rural areas. Once again, I am advising local farm people of the importance and usefulness of the Range Patrol Program. It is for your protection and will work extremely well, only if you participate. If anyone is interested in ing Range Patrol started, get tourch with the Magrath R.C.M.P. Office. During Septemner 1981, the following occurrances were reported: 2 Break-ins, 2 Thefts over $220, 4 thefts under $200, 1 Disturbance, 1 Trespassing, 5 Wilful Damage, 1 Drug Charge and 4 Liquor Charges.

We know a lot of you were home, but the 1.60 Magrathites who were there bursting with pride cheered loudly enough for all the rest of you. It was a great day to be from Canada, frotn Magrath, and to belong to those wonderful kids who had just astounded even us and won cheers from the whole crowd. We were in Spokane at the Marching Band of America NW Finals. We were selected from 4,000 area bands to participate, one of the top 23 bands in the finals. Eight bands were entered in the class A division. 'Fifteen were in the open class (schools over 1200) . As the day progressed our excitiement mounted and we were overwhelmed when we won 6th place in preliminaries for all the bands entered. That wevening we were carrying home not only second place A division trophy, but two special trophies as well - Best Rifles and Best Flag awards.Maybe Carol Law and Julie Dainard will start charging for their services after this. Congratulations. Only eight special trophies were given and they were won by only three of the participating bands. After the competitions, one top judge said Mr. Brockway had accomplished the impossible - only one band director, limited finances, and the use of Junior High students as well. There is no way we should have even come close in the finals. They really didn't know our secret - what we lack in size we make up in hometown spirit. As Mr. Wheeler said in Assembly, it wasn’t the size of the stone that killed Goliath, but the skill behind it. Our little town is filled with a special brand of great people. ■ Special thanks to the public spirited initiative of those who took upon themselves to book booster busses. Eighty people got their first chance to see an MBA. Ranging in ages from veteran high school teacher Walter Brown, 83 years young, to four month old Bonnie LeMaro, all the enthusiasm of boosters is typified. Many of those who went had no children in the band. Boosters flocked in with cars and campers. Thanks to the support and co-operation of the high school teachers and administration who helped us work in our practices, for the neat chaperones, the food committee (kids are still raving about the menus) and parents who helped to make the trip possible. A big cheer for our band executive and the countless hours of effort they put into planning and financing the trip. Please drop into the Band Room Thursday night from 7:00 to 9:00 for squares and punch at the Band Parent Booster evening. Videos will be shown, you can hear the judging tapes and catch the enthusiasm of all who attended. FOR RENT: 3 bedroom home. E. Lawlor, Phone 758-3789.
