cember meeting. Wen be in the
spirit Of the season with a
Christmas theme. Plans are
that each one of us attending
the meeting will bring a small
gift to exchange. 1t sounds like
fun.
But we always have fun at
Newcomers club meetings. For
November we planned a card
party. There were three tables
of canasta, one table of bridge
and one table Of scrabble. Proof
that if necessary we do mix
business with pleasure, there
was even one table busily dis
cusSing the December party for
the Opportunity school children!
And, of course, there was a
busy committee of cooks in the
kitchen!!
Those cooks, thy put a speedy
end to our caro- party. They'd
planned and prepared such a
delicious repast of such a hea-
venly blending of pineapple
whipped cream and graham
crackers that everyone Just
kind of collapsed after indulg-
ing. So instead of card playing
after refreshments, there was
much pleasant chatting. 1t was
delightful to sit at your table
and sip your coffee and get
acquainted with your partner.
However, there WAS one ex-
ception. Ellen Helm, Florence
Gallentine, Clarice Magill and
Sandra Juredine at the scrabble
table enjoyed their game to
such an extent they probably
didn't even realize what they
were eating. Mere food wasn't
enough to keep them from con.
tinuing their "scrabbling." The
winner at scrabble - Sandra
Juredine. The winners at cards
- Lucy Calabrese, Esther Bu.
chan and Jayne Allen.
