CZ-Xt the Ggperzr 251111152 Went to see Rebecca tonight. Honestly, A.H.S. really should send a few stars down to Hollywood-such as Jacquie Brinkhurst, Dick Taylor and Marg Patterson. Gee, the kids really did a wonderful job-even fidgety little CU me didn't move a muscle all the way through the three acts, except, of course, to laugh at Irvin Shore. As a matter of fact I liked the play so much I'm going to read the book again. Dear Diary-Feb. 14!-47: Oh, hearts and flowers, etc .... No, I'm not in love, quite- but Johnny and I went to the Valentine dance tonight. It was really a wow-big red hearts for decorations. CI took one for my room.J Swell music by Pete's orchestra. Lynn Ann Ha- worth and Ross Rayment, and Dick Stephens and Joanne Ewen won the boxes of nuts and plastic belts. Itsy Shore, M.C., presided over a truth and consequences contest withpthe help of Judy Freedman and Doreen Breakell. Well,fDear Diary, I must put up my wig and hit the hay. G'nite. 'Elsa fniih mama Dear Diary-Mar. 12!47 : I just got home from the T.A.M.S. Red Cross Teag it really was a success. The T.A.M.S. did a wonderful job-it made me tired just to think of all the work they had done. Of course, everyone was there, it was well advertised, thanks to Jean Elder, and also to Audrey Mann and Doreen Henderson for all the invitations they sent out. Miss Cobb, Betty Gant, Joyce Reesor, Sibyl Louise Niblock and Helen Mary Clara McNichol welcomed and guided the guests. The head table was decorated by Phyllis Sadler's committee with spring flowers, while each tea table had small golden harps on green bases as centerpieces-very attractive. The waitresses were organized by Wilma Daniels. The White Elephant table, under the direction of Audrey Papoe, sold anything and everything they could lay their hands on. Next to it was a raffle table for the cake made by Mrs. MacDonald. Tickets were sold by Johnene MacDonald. Along the wall of the aud. was the Home Cooking table-a great success. You'd think the people hadn't eaten for a month, but, then, everything looked so good! It was under Elaine Sangster's eagle eye. There was also a Shop and Home Ee. table where Bea Wilson looked after the selling of A.H.S. pennants, etc. And, of course, I can't forget the candy table. What a mob Betty McLeod had on her hands every time they put candy up for sale! 57
