Church parish hail. Last Fri
days snowy weather made it
necessary to postpone the bas-
ketball game scheduled between
RMHS and Wakefield.s This will
be played at the RMfIS gym this
Saturday night. For you MONS

ask you good people if you have
any old furniture you are not
using, such as chairs, lamps;
small tables, or rugs, the Theatre
Group would like to have them
for their new workshop in the
Kelley Building. This workshop
will serve as a place for rehear-
sails and meetings of the group
and the members will soon be
busy painting and refurbishing

you would like to donate to the
group or loan, if you prefer,

We understand that the maya
zine campaign at Rockville
Junior High has reached $2,315
as we go to press, with the goal
of $4,000 to go. There may still
be time to buy a subscription
and help these young statesmen
reach that figure.
Probably about the two hap
piest people in town these days
are Anne and Joe Wilson for on
Feb. 8, wee Miss Laura Embrey
Wilson made her appearance at
Columbia Hospital - the first
feminine member of the Wilson
family for five generations. Not
only that but Laurie" was born
on that record-breaking day at
Columbia when "a babies were
born in "a hours! She weighed
eight pounds and two ounces.
Her parents, of course, need no
introduction, for Anne is we'll
known in art and musical circles
and Joe is the very popular bas
betball coach at Richard Mont
gomery. Young Joseph S. Will
son, Jr, better known as Jody,
and aged two and one-half,
rounds out the very happy Will
son family.
