The reading by Maybeth Stew art of Corrallis who won the de clamatory "contest in Linn and Benton counties and the accordian solos by Walter Doiler were very much appreciated. It would take up too much space to give each person spear ately the praise to which they are entitled. COMMUNITY CLUB IT U if 4 RICKEY.
