Every Evening by Dave Davin Canal Town Days — 1971 are history . . . but Palmyra and the hundreds who participated will re member them for quite some time . . . like the colorful C. A. Palmer Fife and Drum Corps doing the honors for the official opening ceremonies. Or the unidentified woman who thought the town was under seige when she crossed the parking lot at Colacino's Big M only to be greet ed by a shot from the Dragoon’s three-inch howitzer. Although the rain sloshed out most of Sunday’s activities, Saturday was enough to make it all worth while. Too bad more persons didn’t at tend the dance Friday night. Phil Trunzo and The Counts really do play that old kind of music where you hold your partner and move slowly, instead of jolting and gy rating . . . (Trunzo has asked Don Layseth if he will sell the rights to his new Chicken Walk Dance). . . It was good to know the youth dance Saturday more than made up Friday’s money loss and con tributed to the Youth Movement. . . Daryll DeCann and Jim Degman did a spectacular job on both dan ces. . . And of course Jim was right on tap with his ready-to-lend e q u ip ment for the JC’s clam booth in the park. . . The big question about the clams is who got to eat all the extras on Sunday (besides the JC's, the Aldermans, Ruberys, Austins, Bedettes, to name just a few of the loyalists who scoffed at the rain). . . - One of the best sights of the weekend was Fred (The Torch) Al derman with Patrolman Smith set ting the fire for the ox roast at 5 a.m. Of course the bacon and eggs in the park at seven were fros ting on the cake. . . And if you think the parade was short, try to remember the charac teristic of Palmyra parades: qual ity, not quantity . . . which goes for the beef at the ox roast. . . Fred Alderman, with chief culinary con sultant Ed Forman, are weighing several offers to cook for some of the celebrities who attended the festivities. . . (Fred is toying w ith going to Paris (Indiana) to take over the kitchen for Milo Phipps, head of security of the Paris Com munity Cemetery.) Several women in a delegation headed by Gerry Johns are trying to get exclusive rights to the big tent. They want it for the quilting bee at next year’s fair. . . Chief Henry tore up the parking ticket he was about to issue to the Canal Museum trailer when the driver promised he’d take the packet mul es back to Syracuse.., There was a rum^r that bidding on the truck with the beer spigots in the side went as high as $87.55 Saturday, when a visitor from Fair port threatened to throw himself in . the roasting pit if the truck was touched. . . And the man who open ed the rear of the truck -with a church key was released on $35 bail (after he promised to show the judge where he got an jopener that big). . . Committee officials are still try ing to trace the three boys and two girls at the flea market who sold eleven fleas to a nice little lady from Newark. . . (Betty Briggs has denied this account/She said it was no more than six fleas, eight tops.) Police are still trying to find a tall squat man who, while under the influence of the grape, tried to play the Stars and Stripes For ever on the cannon. . . But where else but in a fine little town could you find a Civil War outfit fall out of a parade and muster again in front of the police station. . . for a beer party?. . . Or find such dandy crafts as painted rocks, flowers made from bread, an authentic rope weaver, a potter complete with wheel or a group passing out bibles fastened to yardsticks, just to see how long the scriptures really are. . . As usual the hue and cry around the village Monday and Tuesday was “. . . and then next year well bring in the dancing bears who’ll alternate with the Blue Angels. . .” But no where at no time can anyone find a better slice of Amer icana . . . no fights, no troubles . . . people like you and I enjoying themselves . . . it was friendliness munching a hot dog, pride in our heritage holding a toddler by the hand . . . and an admission that the things that make this country great begin in places with names like Palmyra on a Saturday in early autumn, when the rest of the world takes second place to good times with your neighbors.
