THURSDAY, April 22, 1948 Social and Club Activities GRACE THOMPSON Phone 2206 FUN, GOOD FELLOWSHIP KEYNOTE SCOUT LEADERS' DINNER PARTY A hearty old-time party spirit prevailed as approximately 100 Girl Scout leaders, their husbands, honored guests and visitors enjoyed as informal evening of dining, singing long-popular tunes, playing games and square dancing, Monday evening at 6:30 o'clock in the Fremont Junior high school cafeteria and gymnasium. The hospitable affair was given by the local Girl Scout council. Mrs. Leroy Ater, Girl Scout commissioner, greeted leaders and guests at the door. General chairman was Mrs. Maynard Glenn. Spring flowers decked the long banquet tables in the cafeteria. The pot luck dinner, topped off with apple pie a la mode, was served by Girl Scouts from various troops. Community singing led by song leaders Tex Middleton and his accordion and M. A. Gauer added to the atmosphere. The party-goers were welcomed by Mrs. Ater who introduced Miss Dorothy Bowe, Girl Scout director, Fremont principal and Mrs. Wilbert Bonney, Mr. and Mrs. Middleton, Superintendent and Mrs. Gauer, Miss Ada Wilcox, Mrs. William A. Dolan, ex-president of the leaders' association; Mrs. August Fitz, current association president, and her husband; and Dave Collins, former "Y" director and Jaysee 'Y' Group Host to Mothers Mothers of YMCA members at Fullerton Junior college were honored at a dinner held in college lounge Wednesday evening of last week. President Jimmie Friis of this city gave the welcome address to which Mrs. Fred Dukes responded on behalf of the mothers. The dinner opened with Richard Harris of Anäheim acting as chapain. The banquet concluded with Arch Allen, Fullerton, district YMCA secretary and advisor presenting a spiritual message. A varied program was enjoyed with Stanley Chapman Jr., of Anaheim and Walter Parks of Fullerton giving a black face act. Craig Bottger, also of this city, guest pianist, was introduced and played several selections. A number of well contrasted clarinet solos were given by John Salveson of Anaheim. Mrs. Ashleigh At accordion and M. A. Gauer added to the atmosphere. The party-goers were welcomed by Mrs. Ater who introduced Miss Dorothy Bowe, Girl Scout director, Fremont principal and Mrs. Wilbert Bonney, Mr. and Mrs. Middleton, Superintendent and Mrs. Gauer, Miss Ada Wilcox, Mrs. William A. Dolan, ex-president of the leaders' association; Mrs. August Fitz, current association president, and her husband; and Dave Collins, former "Y" director and dance master for the evening. Presented by Miss Bowe, the first door prize went to Mrs. Francis Elliott, a small but lively gray and white kitten. Its twin was awarded to Mrs. Octave Roquet. A small quacking duck was handed in a box, as the third door prize to William Bushman. Gerri Glover received the fourth award for assisting with the presentations, following which Mrs. Roquet tried to give someone a present—a cat, a young cat. "Pass The Box" was a game played which had its title quipped into "Pass the Buck." Music was provided by Middleton as the group formed a large circle in the gym. Each victim caught holding the box was required to perform a unique stunt. They included a quartet and weird questions climaxed with a bubble gum demonstration, given while "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles" was sung by the audience. During this "blow out" one wad of brilliant blue landed on the floor and August Fitz got stuck. "It won't work," he said puffing. "Aw, I'll show you how," said his young daughter. Hilarity continued as Dave Collins directed the group in a grand march. Other folk dancing which left everyone winded and laughing included variations of the "Paw Paw Patch"; "Cshebogo," a Hungarian import; "Chimes of Dunkirk," a French number; "Rye Waltz," and "Polly Wally Doodle" from the old south. Mrs. Norman Tessner and Mrs. Roquet were in charge of games. Decorations were by Mrs. Dayton Smith and Mrs. Ray Dargatz; food, Mrs. J. L. Davenport and Mrs. Warren Hodges; and reservations, Mrs. W. E. Whiteman. Motorists are advised by National Automobile Club to lessen the hazards of night driving by being sure that their lighting is adequate.

Mrs. Ashleigh At Tijuana B. and P. W. Club Rites Witnessing the charter night of Mexico's first Business and Professional Women's club, in Tijuana last Saturday, was Mrs. Warren Ashleigh, president of the Anaheim Business and Professional Women. The impressive and colorful ceremony was held in the famed Jai Alai dining room following a five-course banquet. Prominent Mexican business women have been urging the formation of a club to be associated with B.-P. W. International for the past two years. Although strong emphasis and honor are given Mexican customs, two additional clubs will be chartered, one at Nogales and the other in Mexico City before July 4. All three will receive official membership early in that month, Mrs. Ashleigh stated, at Ft. Worth, Texas. The Anaheim club woman left here Friday night to visit her friend, Mrs. Lois Reeves McCarty of Escondido, vice president of that city's club, past president of the Pomona B. and P. W. and program chairman of Los Angeles county. From there Mrs. Ashleigh and Mrs. McCarty went with a delegation of South Bay, San Diego club which sponsored the installation. Installed at the candle light ceremony were Senora Molina, president; Dr. Campiel, vice president; Senora Berman, secretary, and Dr. Cuerral, treasurer. Miss Beulah Seeber, past president of the southern district and director at large and a member of the La Jolla club, welcomed the Tijuana group in Spanish. A welcome talk was presented, also, by Mrs. Ann Engle, president of the Escondido B. and P. W. and Mrs. Ashleigh. Installation officer was Ruth Meyers of the South Bay group.

After the banquet meeting and visits the visitors attended a fast-action Jai Alai game in the Frontoon palace, also housed in the huge building. The banquet, which required nearly two hours, was served in an atmosphere of graciousness and splendor, augmented with soft lights, catchy music and gay formal gowns. Postmen Walk On Desert Trip Taking a traditional postman's holiday were Elmer Sims, an associate of the local post office, and Clyde Dill, a former employee. The two Anaheim men returned here Saturday after a four-day trip deep in the heart of the cactus country, beyond Barstow, in the Calico mountain area. Before leaving Anaheim, Sims declared he was exhausted and planned to do nothing but rest, so he hiked all over the terrain with Dill and exercised his camera. Neither of the duo mentioned the desert heat, but according to a usually reliable source, the landscape simmered. It was so quiet they did not hear even the sound of one animal for two days. Finally, on the third day, an airliner passed overhead and broke the montony. Not even a lone coyote came to sample bait of liver and sardines. Sim, however, did shoot approximately 1000 feet of film with his 16 and 8 millimeter cameras. Another enthusiastic photography fan, Dill also took motion pictures with his 35 inch camera. An oversized gila monster, which took some time to nab, was turned loose by the local citizens be- JUNE SHAFER June Shafer, versatile young character player and comedienne, signed another contract with Holiday Stage, to appear with the professional stock company at Tustin, which opens for a ten-week session beginning June 28.

Impressive artistry marked the floral tribute on stage, dedicated to the Santa Ana Canyon woman who was well known both socially and as a garden enthusiast. In her memory modern candelabra were placed at either side of the stage which was arranged with two mixed bouquets complementing an all-white bouquet of Japanese iris, stock and candy tuft. The dark wood of the center table on stage, dramatically draped with a white shawl carried out the Spanish theme of the fiesfa. Adding to the early California atmosphere were gay Spanish and Mexican costumes worn by club members. The Trio Placentia, clad in bright attire, were wandering troubadours for the occasion. Mrs. Robert S. Harvey was overall chairman of exhibits. General fiesta chairman was Mrs. Norman Lombard. Sweepstakes winner was Mrs. S. K. Watters, the proud holder of nine ribbons. Mrs. Cortez Hoskins and M. E. Geeting tied for second place with eight ribbons each. Special award went to Albert E. Rhome of Brea for his Ming tree arrangement. Another beautiful tribute to Mrs. Greder was that of the Las Amigas Study club. A study table draped with a lovely scarf held a few books and bookends of modern pottery flower vases. From one of these a cymbidium orchid made a graceful arch. A huge orchid lay upon the pages of a book about orchid culture, Mrs. Greder’s hobby.
