The Lancaster
Bomber.
..
|
|
As I recall,
Joe Schnur
(l),
Alexander and Antony Hinton, and Don Parker were
the bomber's four engines while presumably Tim Kirby and Neil Wilson were
pilot and co-pilot. Philip Hodshon in charge of bomb dropping and who better
than Roger Redwin as the tail-gunner??!!
..
|
|
Alas! An emergency
arises - one of the engines catches on fire and poor Joey Schnur gets doused
- much to the
relief of these fans who stayed dry in a rapidly cooling evening!
..
|
|
Another game
whose possibilities were interesting to explore ...
..
|
|
Using identical
lengths of rope, teams were challenged to see which team could get
that length of
rope up through the most sets of clothing.
.....
|
|
Shorts were
a must here.
..
|
|
The key in
this race was not to get so dizzy that you fell off the dock!
..
|
|
The North
Americans dragged the Brits into a game of baseball (softball, actually
- well, slow pitch, in fact)
- note Geoff Hodshon
(r)
a natural at first base while Brian Love prepares to groove one to his
hitter.
..
|
|
And then it
was the North Americans' turn to learn cricket as Colin Wilson bowls one
in there...
..
|
|
... to Ian
Brennan ...
..
|
|
... and Head
Cheerleader, George Blanchard, whips the fans into a frenzy!

Uncle Al proudly
displays his daughter's hiking abilities, a daughter who had just recently
followed up her first word "Daddy" with a loud and clear dinner table rendition
of "Roll Tack".

Responsibilities
such as this...
..
|
|
... tended
to be sobering but fun.
(Note:
the entire next page is devoted to Christopher Schnur and Joanna S. baby
pics and may therefore be of limited interest to the non-parents of these
prodigies.)

Only nine
years later, Joanna would step in as an emergency crew for Al (below) and
score
two firsts in
two races. Thus far, she has retired from further racing - with a perfect
record!
