3 Anaheim Gazette FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1951 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Social and Club Activities Pat Terrebonne — 2206 PAT'S PATTER Distributing money poses no problems for the local philanthropies, it's adding to the coffers that sometimes proves difficult. Coming up with a fresh idea for every charity is no small undertaking as any ways and means chairman will readily point out. Tried and true box socials, auctions and white elephant sales are becoming a little worn around the edges and everyone seems to agree that a new approach would be welcome. Even fashion shows are being strained at their fashionable seams. What's left? Antique shows, flower shows, hobby shows are a little less common but unfortunately draw only a specific audience. All women are interested in clothes but a prize display of gloxinias may prove as entertaining to a prospective donor as an antique show would to a confirmed modern. A plan worthy of mention was brought to our attention the other day and although it would require use of an oversize stage and a crew of piano movers it should prove entertaining to most women. The idea involves a decorator showing conducted in a manner similar to a fashion show with a commentary. Picture on stage two large living rooms, one modern, the other traditional. Both would provide to the meeting. Each person is entitled to bid as often as she chooses, not aloud, but on a slip of paper which she places, with her number, beside each article. Time is called and bids read aloud with highest bidder taking her selection. IDEAS PLEASE Pat's Patter will be glad to serve as a sounding board for any new ideas on this money raising question, and will print any suggestions readers may offer for the benefit of other clubs struggling with the problem. ENTERTAIN CELEBRITY Harry Babbit followed his Hallowe'en breakfast appearance with a visit in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Dougan at 853 N. Dickle st., Wednesday. They also treated him to luncheon at Knott's Berry Farm. BUSINESS TRIP G. P. Goodrich, district manager Tri-Hi-Y's Have Hallowe'en Meet Most of the Tri-Hi-Y Clubs on the YMCA held parties Tuesday on the eve of Hallowe'en. The Senior Live Yrs held a Hallowe'en party in the Schmid barn on South East st., having as guests the Junior-Senior Tri-Hi-Y Club from Garden Grove. Barbara Rees has charge of games and entertainment. A hilarious time was enjoyed with bobbing for apples, chirades and other guessing game girls from Garden Grove who attended were Pat Arr, Caroline Keanaugh, Leah Faye Eulenbarger, Martha Davis, Jeannette Heath, Peggy Jones, Pat Berry, Pha Thomas, Alice Martin, Loretta Morris and Deana Murcy, leader. The Junior YQT's had their Hallowe'en party at the home of K. Turner. Ramona Schley was program chairman, assisted by Mori Carner, Nan Morales, Nancy Rau and Kay Turner. Marian Carcausa, Gretchen Decker, Joan Hassen and Geri Gloyer decorated typical Hallowe'en fashion. Games were played after which refreshments of cupcakes, cider, apples and popcorn were served by Mary Lynn Hudson, Jan Larson, Barbara Simonton and Jeanie Marquise. The Freshman Tri-Hi-Y Club led by Mrs. Phyllis Weyand, cojoyed a Hallowe'en meeting which reports on the district conference were made. This club still trying to select a suitable name. Refreshments of popcorn and cider were served. The idea involves a decorator showing conducted in a manner similar to a fashion show with a commentary. Picture on stage two large living rooms, one modern, the other traditional. Both would provide foli for countless accessories such as lamps, slip covers, rugs, occasional tables, chairs, drapes, curtains, pictures, mirrors and countless others. A decorator working in these rooms could give his audience a preview of the newest textures and colors in rugs and fabrics, as well as an idea of their adaptability in their own homes. A room furnished in good basic furniture could be transformed in minutes from modern to provincial with the addition of chintz drapes and slip covers, hooked rugs and accessories in maple or pine. Another idea might be to use older furniture and bring the whole room up to date with new rugs, drapes and slip covers. A lot of women hesitate to undertake radical changes in restyling their home, the show would do this for them, show them exactly how the changes would appear in their own homes. At intermission the sets could be changed to bedrooms. The idea lends itself particularly well here, where spreads, vanity skirts and curtains often contribute more to the decor than the furniture itself. Bedrooms could do rapid changeovers from frilly feminine to Colonial to modern. One of the sets could be a nursery which would be changed to suit the requirements of a growing girl, later a teen-ager and finally, a guest room. Lots of work and planning would be entailed but the overall effect would be both unusual and entertaining and the audience should go away with dozens of ideas for re-doing their homes. NEW APPROACH The doll collectors club of Anaheim has another idea, this for the "old as the hills" white elec- ENTERTAIN CELEBRITY Harry Babbit followed his Hallowe'en breakfast appearance with a visit in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Dougan at 853 N. Dickle st., Wednesday. They also treated him to luncheon at Knott's Berry Farm. BUSINESS TRIP G. P. Goodrich, district manager for the Chrysler Corporation, is leaving today for a two week business trip. WHAT HAIR? Wes Nelson, breakfast prize winner, was out of his spectacular Indian costume and buying newspapers like mad yesterday morning.

This versatile volcano is writing both book and music, while cooking on three stoves and all burners in her vast kitchen at Old Fort Farm, the Lasswell shack in Newport, R.I. This is how she described the birth of a musical: "Well, my husband (Lt. Com." Clyde Lasswell of the U.S. Navy brought half a dozen navy officer friends home for the weekend and I was playing this tune. They wanted to know what it was, so I said: It's the start of a new musical I'm writing. "That night we all went out celebrating, and the next morning I had to make 100 pounds of fruitcake. The boys all helped, and in between times I wrote the other nine songs of the play. They're all terrific." Mary has been cooking since she was four, began her writing career when her husband had to sail off to fight a war. Now she's busier than a beagle in the zoo, and having a heck of a good time.
