(For the record, these two Cit.
Zen's Associations held a success
full joint party at Halloween.
Thanks to the contributions of
local stores, the party was swung
on practically a shoestring." Cost
less than ten cents per member.
So much for the high cost of liv-
ing! These folks plan to add a
record-hop for teen-agers to their
next Halloween shindig. The
COLLINS of yesteryear have grown
that big. Incidentally, these big
teen-age ex-goblins collected a
whopping $3.50 for UNICEF on
their trick-or-treat rounds. Some
punkins.)
Moving on from parties, we
have information about the Mo-
hlcan Swimming Pool Associa-
ton, which got all incorporated
and ready to go while we
weren't looking. 1t has even en-
rolled over 100 members already.
A site has been selected at Mac
Arthur Boulevard and Walhond-
ing Road, and purchase is being
negotiated. Membership fee Is
5000 as of this writing; after there
are 200 members, the. fee jumps
to $225.
Maybe it seems a trifle cold to
be thinking about (brrrrr) swim
ming. But if you wait for the
heat wave, there will be 200 mem
bers In there ahead of you, that's
for sure: more join up every
week. Maybe it'll be too late al
together, I dunno: 1t doesn't say
here what the top number of
memberships is to be. To call
while the calling is good, you want
