• My first car was a small used 1951 Hillman  that my father (mostly) and I (very little) fixed up. Its brakes were notoriously bad and its signal lights came out projecting from the side walls when required.

• Adult smelt first appeared in very large numbers at the western end of the Central Basin in 1951 (Kennedy, 1961). These fish were probably the 1948 year class, which suggests that a large sanctuary existed by 1948. Smelt were not harvested in significant numbers until 1952, and not intensively until 1960. Very large numbers were present in 1953 and 1954, judging from the numbers caught accidentally in the fishermen’s large mesh nets. They continued to be abundant in spawning runs at Pt. Pelee until 1962, then declined somewhat. ... Adult smelt migrate eastward across the Central Basin after spawning  at Pt. Pelee ...

Canadian fishermen recall runs of ripe walleyes to sand and gravel areas on the west shore of Pt. Pelee and also along the north shore of Lake Erie near Kingsville (W. H. Krause, personal communication). These areas have been used by few, if any, walleyes in recent years. The grounds off Pt. Pelee have become progressively modified over the past 20 years by a black, malodorous deposit noticeable on trap net anchors. The changes are probably due to domestic and cannery pollution from Leamington and other communities. According to fishermen, various reefs off Pt. Pelee and inshore areas off Pelee Island had large spawning runs until relatively recent years (H. Tiessen, personal communication). These runs are now either small or extinct ...In acknowledging here a special indebtedness to a number of persons for data, observations and comments made available to us, we do not wish to imply that these persons necessarily subscribe to all the inferences we have drawn. We thank  ... W. H. Krause ...

Krause-Richards Rites

The Faith Mennonite Church on Sherk Street, Leamington, was the setting Saturday for the wedding of Lynda Richards, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Richards, of RR Leamington, and Eric Krause, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Krause Jr., of RR 1, Leamington. Rev. George Janzen officiated for the ceremony. The bride's floor length gown of white peau de soie had an empire waist with a panel of applique down the front. It was accented by a matching coat, featuring a scoop neckline and long sleeves, which formed the chapel train.

Her bouffant veil was held in place by an orchid-like headpiece trimmed with seed pearls. She carried a cascade of white roses with feathered mums.

Shirley Richards, sister of the bride, was the maid of honor. Bridesmaids were Kathy Krause, sister of the groom; Mary Lynn Setterington, Lily Shuster and Lynn Wiper, friends of the bride.

Their floor-length gowns of royal blue velvet featured matching capes and they carried white carnations formed in a, sphere with royal blue velvet handles.

The best man was John Kornelson, cousin of the groom. Ushers were Bill Krause, brother of the groom, George Toews and Paul Krause, cousins of the groom, and Nick Toth.

The bride's mother wore a blue brocade dress with matching accessories. The groom's mother was also in blue with navy accessories.

A reception was held in the Tudor Room of Diana Restaurant after the ceremony.

For a wedding trip to the southern states, the bride chose a forest green walking suit with a corsage of baby orchids.

On their return, the couple will reside at RR 1, Leamington.
