Bannockburn Community Par
ty on March % was a whopping
success, as usual, in the fun de-
partment, and even brought in
some money. Floor show took the
form of an opera this time. At

synopsis. Something about a fam
lily named Fora, which is very

most stately DANES in the COM
were in the chorus line
for him to leer at.
Real Spanish dancing was dem

Smith, who didn't live here at all. |

what experts can do. They got q
big vote of thanks.
