Square Dance
Time

Congratulations to the Glass.
which had another perfect-attend-
ance night on Friday. This group
is really buZzing along with the
lessons to the delight of their tea
cher-caller, Lee Billow. There are
only three classes remaining in
this session, and these couples will
be eligible to join the Diamond
State Twirlers in their regular
club nights. 1t is to be hoped that
the entire class will be interested
in joining the club to continue the
fun and fellowship which they have
found can be had in the square
dance recreation.
On Saturday night four couples
from Milford (Mr. and Mrs. Hallett
Vinyard, Mr.. and Mrs. w. w. Nc
Chimes, Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Hall,
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Willowson)
made the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS trip
to Riva, Maryland, to dance with
the Country Squares. A very en-
Joyable evening ended only after
the hosts had served a delicious
barbecue to their guests. The visi-
tat1ons between these two clubs of
the Billows' has. promoted much
friendliness and enjoyment for the
folks in Riva and Milford. Such
exchanges are to be encouraged.
Saturday, November 81, is Club
Record Night. Don't forget, Twirl-
ersii
And, particularly, keep in mind
that the group is planning to dance
for the Veterans Administration
Hospital at Elsmere, Delaware, on
Sunday, November g. Meet at the
Lamberts' not later than 4:45 p. m.
entertainment to start at the hos
pital at 1000. Everyone in the club
is urged to make an extra effort to
be on hand for this contribution in
the entertainment line to those less
fortunate health-wise than our
selves.
UMN SQUARE DANCE
WEEK END was a wonderful af-
fair held at the beautiful Mimslyn
Motor Inn in Luray, Virginia. The
Mimslyn, with it's sixteen acres OF
grounds, is in a delightful setting
so located as to give commanding
view of the Page Valley and the
surrounding Blue Ridge and Mass
anutten Mts. The entire weekend,
limited to so couples due to space,
was carefully planned by the hosts
Bette and Jack Moffet of Arling-
ton, Va.-Gertie and Blackie Sim
mons of Hagerstown, Md and
Lou and "Decko" Deck from De-
troit, Michigan. Col. Decks clipped,
enthusiastic style and Louis eff
ervescence-added to the bounce
and lift of Jacks and Blackie's
calling-added to- the keen attent-
ion to details by all those involved
in the handling of fun and comfort
of the dancers-left nothing to be
desired. Delicious southern food
attendance "sings" in the spacious
lobby with an immense fireplace
burning brightly-plus the renew
ing of acquaintenances and max
ing of new friends-all added up to
FUN in capital letters.
After attending the Luray festivi-
ties, Ethel and Ken Lambert then
stopped off in Bethesda, Md, on
their way home to participate in
the pot-luck supper of the Hot Pots
square dance club. All in all, a
terrific weekend.
