Shiloh Baptist Church was
last week presented a beauti-
full altar array for the pulpit,
including candlestieks and Cross.
This wonderful gift comes from
our Christian Endeavor friends
of Newton, many who were pres
ent here at the recent Christian
Endeavor communion a few
weeks ago and we're very much
impressed and enthused with
the work being done in our
church and by the many willing
volunteers.
A Shiloh wedding performed
by Pastor Oscar G. Phillips last
week united two of w. Medford's
most popular young people when
Miss Mary Booker became the
bride of Mr.. Winefred Smith,
one of Medford's best all-around
athletic stars. The bride, daugh-
ter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Booker, Sr., is an employee of
the John Hancock Insurance
company. The groom, employed
in business with his father, has
been a Stand-out athlete in the
Medford City Park Baseball
League, the City Basketball
League and the City Church
Basketball League. He is ex-
pecting a call to the service
soon. The bride was given away
by her father Miss Debra Rose
served as Maid of Honor. Mr..
Horace Works was best man.
Army Artillery Cpl, James
Macdonald, returned to his ouE
fit last week after reporting a
wonderful furlough stay here
with his home-folks and neigh
borS. There is some rumor that
the outfit may be stationed
nearer home. And Pfc. Wallace
Kountze left for Texas last week
where he will attend aviation
mechanics school. Wally has
been up several times in the
Army Haison scout planes. There
is possibility that Warren Furey
may eventually be stationed with
his Paratrooper older brother,
Sgt. Bob Furey. Also Hilton
Parham, Jr., may be in the same
outfit.
Speaking of the Furey family
Tufts indoor co-captain Armand
Furey, Jr., formerly of the Air
force, helped Tufts college track
sters romp over Northeastern last
week. Furey won the quarter
mile and was second in the 220-
yd. dash. The star of the meet
was Tufts Sepia sophomore Bob
Jones and eX-Brockton H. S. and
former state schoolooy champi-
on. All Jones did for the first
day was to win the 120-yd. low
hurdles, win the high Jump, tie
for first in the broadjump and
place second in the 1O0-yd. dash.
Jones is seeking to emulate the
old Tufts One Man Track
Team" Eddie Digger, whom he
more or less worshipped as a
kid. You'll hear a lot about
the Tufts tracksters this year,
including the star freshmen.
Dinger Dussalt, the Tufts track
coach, was honored recently.
He is a real democratic Ameri-
can. The w. Medford Commun-
ity Center is planning a series
OF Adult Nights to raise funds
for adding a basement area for
gym facilities and an increase
In paid workers. A basement
gym would solve many present
problems due to crowded condi-
tions. At this time, both the
Center and Church athletes have
had to practice in rented GYMS
elsewhere. Mr.. Leon Furr. a
member of the Medford Plan
ming Board and an organizer
an dformer president of the Cen
ter is heading the new program
committee which met early this
week. The Medsomnorox Club

wood and Roxbury, presented
their first dance and whist
party at the Center last week.
All the ladies worked harda nd

There is much talent and possi-
bilitieS in this new club which
can be of decided benefit to all
the communities the members
represent. The Center will pre-
sent a Benefit Dance, April 27.
