lily, Miss Crosson is today rec
ognized as an authority on his
tory, a civic leader, lecturer and
traveller. Here in Medford next
month she will exhibit a varied
and unusual display of Mexican
arts and crafts at Shiloh Baptist

before in many other cities. Her
lecture subject, "Vera Cruz, the

of the Lend-A-Hand's greatest

Everyone is still talking about
the fine work being achieved
by Mrs. Jenious, the w. Medford
Community Center director.
Everywhere I meet people who
have nothing but praise for this
very busy lady who is winning
the respect of all ages, groups
and classes. The Teen-Age Can
teens, Youth clubs, Talent
Show, dances, and other pro-
grams to be announced later, are
really keeping both our youth
and adults busy helping one
another. This is great work. The
Community Waltz and Valentine
Party were a fine entertainment.
We hear that Mrs. Vivien Par
ham and Bill Lewis won the
Waltz honors with Ray applaud
ing. Everyone had lots of fun
and Mr.. and Mrs. Cleedie Rhone
also stole the waltze spotlight.
This Waltze contest idea will be
a regular annual affair, someday
to become regular ball room
affair with all the trimmings. Al
so being planned is a summer
park Olympic track and field
meet patterned after the COM
ing games in London. Girls and
boys will compete. And don't
| forget the Co K Reunion and
| meeting March 9 at the Arnlory.
There will be a buffet supper.
See local buddies for tickets. Carl
Williams is among those who
have a few tickets left. Don't
forget the Center March 8 Bean
Supper. Well, Lieut.. Russell
Stokes Is in town for awhile, and
we're also glad to hear that Bill
Wright is well again. Keep
punching. And the Cavalier Bas-
ketball t cam has climbed up to
fourth place in the City League.
