Cerebral Palsy
Shrimp EnchiIado
Supper Successful

The Key West moon failed to APP
pear in time for the Cerebral Pal
sy Association supper Friday night
at the County Beach. Otherwise,
the weather man, merchants,
cooks, and dancers performed as
hoped.
For entertainment, five of the
can-can dancers from the Junior
Variety Show at Key West High
School pranced and kicked in true
can-can style. II took some time
TO get the record player going, but
the guests seemed to think this
Partisan novelty worth waiting for.
The Junior girls in the can-can cho-
rus are: Marlene Park, Alice Gar
cha, Betty Cooper. Camille Walter
son, and Nancy Brooks. Also, lit
tie Joan Braxton, who is visiting
her grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Daniel Braxton sang two songs
which were well received.

by the following: Mr.. George Rem
ner CT the Southwind Motel: Mrs.

| Cities Service Station; a dish towel
/ from the House of Lines; candy
from Schroeder's Sweet Shoppe:
RADIO repair service from Louis
Radio and Appliance Store; and a

Furniture Store.
The supper itself, which was en-
tirely donated by Key West bust
ness people, was pronounced deli
cious, even by natives who are con-
noisseurs of shrimp enchilado. Ben
ny's Cafeteria had indeed done a
superb job with the select shrimp
donated by Sea Coast Fisheries,
Lanasa and Wexler, Thompson
Enterprises, and Toomer Fish
Company. Other choice ingredients
for the enchilado had come from
Charles Market, Key West Provi-
sion, Victory Market, and Benny's.
The rice, donated by Fausto's Food
Palace, was perfectly cooked by
Lees Orient Restaurant. Benny's
Cafeteria had also prepared the
good strcag coffee, donated by Star
Coffee and Triumph Coffee Mill.
Sugar and milk had come from
| Gulfstream Food Store and Vic
tory Market. 10 complete the meal.

publicity had been given by John
f. Spottswood's WKWF in the
weekly calendar and by the Key
West Citizen in two advance stor-
les.
