 : Violet Carson and Freddie Mills, Town Crier championship


Violet Carson and Freddie Mills, Town Crier championship

Aug. 08, 1962 - What A Racket! Violet Carson (Ena Sharples of TV fame) is half deafened by the noise of town criers, including fellow judge Freddie Mills (ex light heavyweight world champion), when 23 contestants vie for the National Town Criers Championship at Hastings today. First Prize is a trophy and 0. The text to be cried: Good people assembled this day at Hastings, greetings to you all in Friendship's name. 1066, the year of Conflict, is past, 1966 is approaching, may the Ninth Century of the Battle of Hastings find this old town equally famous as a centre of peace, Concord and Love between All Peoples. God save the Queen
