The commit- tees, under the co-chairmanship of Beverly Hancock and Gerry Croteau, made the evening most enjoyable.

As usual at all A.M.S.C. par- ties there was an over-abun- dance ofdelicious refreshments for which Eva Murray, with the aid of her committee, Willis Dunham, Robert Holt, Clara French, Claire Malo,and Joseph Cyr, were responsible.

Ruth Cohen, as chairman, was assisted by Tom Stretton, Bayne Drown, Charlie Davis, Eveline Masse and Jane Mynahan on the Entertain ment Committee.
