Chinese Fantasy Theme Enhances Junior Ebell Benefit Party
A fantasy of fashions built around the theme "On a Slow Boat to China," highlighted the tenth annual Junior Ebel benefit style preview and dessert-bride party last Saturday afternoon at the Ebell club house, attended by more than 250 guests and members.
Acclaimed a success were the artistic oriental decorations, enhanced by soft lights, which included Ming trees and Chinese figurines on the 60 playing tables, the tallies in the shape of Chinese lanterns, and the pictures of Chinese figures on simulated wall tapestries.
Models, during the fashion show, paraded through a Chinese door up-center on the stage which formed an effective background with its chartreuse and tan screens and camellia trees. In addition to the wardrobe by Cotlers, shoes were worn through the courtesy of the S.O.R. Store, and hair styles and makeup by Cecil and Vera of La Donna Beauty Salon. Flowers styled to suit ensembles of individual models were provided by Wayne's for Flowers.

Approximately $800. proceeds from the benefit affair, will be given to the Carl Harvey School for the Physically handicapped children of Orange county location.

Miss Virginia Abplanalp, wearing deep rose organdie with matching hat and gloves, was the maid of honor. Bride's maids were Miss Barbara Kahl, sister of the bride, and Miss Jeanette Griggs, also of Anaheim. The bride's maids wore similar gowns of lighted rose tone.

To Aid Children
Approximately $800 proceeds from the benefit affair, will be given to the Carl Harvey School for the Physically handicapped children of Orange county, located at Santa Ana. Mrs. Jay Ortez, Jr., president of the club, described briefly the school which is operated under the supervision of the Orange County Board of Education and staffed with specially trained teachers and professional men and women with monthly clinics held under the direction of the county health department. To care both mentally and physically for the youngsters, support of the general public is needed to keep the institution at its top standard, Mrs. Ortez said. Clad in a black and red Chinese costume, she thanked chairmen for their work after welcoming guests and introducing chairmen.
Fashion Show
As though selected for a slow trip to China, fashions shown were in travel sequence beginning with a display of suits and coats for sailing time, followed by a parade of outfits for the sports deck including bathing suits, slacks, co-ordinated costumes, shorts and casual cottons.
Mrs. Louise Friedman (nee Louise La Planche) of Los Angeles, former starlet under contract to Paramount and currently head sales room model for Western Fashions, leading Pacific coast manufacturing concern, joined local models for the occasion.

View Railway Motion Pictures
Pageantry of early and modern-day railroad history unfolded as three motion pictures were presented by the Railroad Club of Southern California in the Pacific Electric theater, Los Angeles, Wednesday night, March 23.
Included in the audience of more than 800 members and guests were Albert M. Cranston and his son, Eugene, members of the Anaheim Model Railroad Society.
A silent motion picture, "The Great Train Robbery" afforded laughs. In contrast a pictorial film "Scenes Along the Pacific Great Eastern Railway, British Columbia" was shown. Against appropriate backgrounds, small old-time engines and streamliners of the Twentieh Century, as exhibited at the 1948 railroad fair, were shown in a film on the extravaganza.

Alaskan Family Visitors Here
Mr. and Mrs. Fredrick Granere and their daughter, Cassandra, of Juno, Alaska, are the house guests of his cousin, Mrs. Margaret Peterson and her husband, Floyd, of 709 Amstutz avenue, this city.
Enjoying a month's vacation, Granere and his family flew from Juno to Seattle, Washington, where he picked up a new car, held there on order for him. From Seattle the family drove here. Because of the long journey, they will leave Anaheim tomorrow.
A living room "slide view" of Alaska entertained the Peterson's, who viewed pictures taken by Granere. He owns a four-story recreation center in Juno, only structure of its kind in that city. Although life is fairly cosmopolitan within the city of June, a plentiful supply of bears cause men to hunt in parties only and add a border-town atmosphere to the country surrounding Juno, Granere said.
C. A. (Chuch) Pollard of Anaheim was appointed program chairman of the Orange County Camera club at the annual meeting held last week in the Episcopal Church of the Messiah, Santa Ana. The print group formulated plans for the annual potluck dinner to be staged next month at which time prize winning prints and transparencies of the year will be judged.
