Catfish Fry Was Popular Weekend Event

Red Bunch's Catfish Fry at the Ace of Clubs in Soldotna Friday night was a standing room only affair where old friends met and new friends were made.
 The Mississippi blue channel catfish, flown in for this occasion. more than lived up to their ad vanced billing. The genuine hush puppies, so popular in the south ern states, were reported as de llclous and ran out all too soon as did the contents of the keg by the door. However, by that time the dance band had tuned up and everyone began dancing and hay ing so much fun that no one really noticed when supplies were exhausted.
 Considering the outstanding success of this free Catfish Fry, which drew possibly the largest crowd of any event in the area this past weekend, it is expected that a similar event will become an annual affair.
