Times cartoonist Hugh Weatherby created' a montage of characters\" depicting the second' annual Timber Days, succes- . sor to Sechelt May Day. Note the character in the centre���it's a self-portrait of the artist���With art editor and platemaker breathing down his~ back. , Our cartoonist was in such a hurry he got the dates wrong. Sechelt Timbfer Days is not May 19-20-20. Weatherby's trademarks, the talking crows Schwartz and Noir, have been joined by a friend and the Sechelt Litter Bug is also in evidence. , Many of the activities are depicted, but, complains Weatherby, \"You only have me a quarter page to work with. I need more space- than to really do Timber Days ��� justice. Norris gets half a page for the Sun Salmon Derby.\" ' Regardless of space; the., sentiment is there and given a break from the weatherman, we feel that this year's Timber' Days f festivities will top last year's highly successful event. Also featured in today's Times is' a supplement outlining the fun and games. The supplement is chockful of pictures depicting 1973's Timber Days' from the parade through logging competition. The , section also '.contains > a full program, so M ^ar^ttlton't^nlss any of :&e eSgtfg and fun events. Also, many merchants around the community have the programs whioh can be picked up free so 'there is no reason to miss anything. Organizers asked The Times to remind fun seekers that the only change in the yellow program is that the tug-of-war will not be 'held during Monday's logging events but will be shipped over to {Saturday's events to coincide with the big salmon bake.
