Three guests were selected by the club's executive commitlee to act as judges of the best cos tumed couples or groups. These judges were Mrs. Wesley Coyner and Gene King of Redmond and Vite Pascal of Bend. By a pro cess of elimination from the grand march, the four most clev erly costumed groups were se lected. First prize went to Smokey Stover and his assistants who were not only costumed, but were equipped with fire engine, re plete with the most bizarre if not the latest in fire fighting equipment. Bells, sirens and blinking lights added to the ef fect. Fellow members had to look twice to recognize the personnel of this group as Mr. and Mrs. Jack Elliott and Mr. and Mrs. Jack Morris. Second prize Vent to Mr. a.nd Mrs. Bruce Bates who .were, for the evening, a portly and flashy Diamond Jim Brady and an ele gant and elaborate Lillian Rus sell. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sly copped the third prize with their imper sonation of Russian nobles. Sly's high buttoned tunic and tall er mine shako made him seem to have stepped straight from the ranks of the Cossacks. Mrs. Sly's silver shot, ermine-trimmed gown and her elaborate head gear gave her a distinct Russian air. Fourth prize went to a femin ine version of Frank's Tavern basketball team. Members of a group who might have been glamorous in flashy maroon satin basketball shorts were made somewhat grotesque by very un glamorous suits of long under wear which sagged in ungainly folds to wrists and ankles. High heeled shoes completed the out fits and rendered the girls some what awkward in the demonstra tion of their basketball tech nique. Members of this team were Mrs. R. L. Lewis, Mrs. Gene Kn dlcott, Mrs. Clement Croghan, Mrs. Kay Shropshire and Mrs. Chuck Hiatt. A guest W'ho seemed almost professional as a female Imper sonator was Bennie Mekelin, brother-in-law of Mrs. Rollo Wei gand. Sleek dress, lacquered red wig, a come-hither look and a casual swagged combined to trick some of the men to ask "her" to dance. Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Roberts represented a poverty-stricken Russian peasant couple beh'.nd the iron curtain. In tatters, and with burlap-wrapped feet, this couple marched behind their own iron curtain a fire screen. Mr. and Mr3. Jess Tetherow were resplendent as a southern gentleman and his lady. Ray Wise and Mrs. Wise were the wolf and Red Riding Hood. Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Patrick were a sailor and hula girl, which might have been somewhat run-of-the-mill if it hadn't been for the fact that Mrs. Patrick was the petite sailor, with her hus band coyly grotesque in a cello phane hula skirt and a black mop wig. Mr. and Mrs. Roy Carpenter were cowboy and cowgirl with noisiers, guns and the usual re galia. A pair of ill-fitting chap arajos and hat, plus a huge false nose, completed Carpenter's dis guise. During the dance, special rec ognition was accordfd to newly weds Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Coy npr. Members of the club took time enough to cast ballots for new members of the executive com able for construction of a motor court. A C'alifornian desires to buy the property and construct the court, but the north section of the property streets at this point is zoned as residential, rather than commercial, he said. Wichlac was advised to obtain a petition from the city recorder and circulate it among residents of the area involved. If sufficient signers are obtained, the petition then will be presented to the plan ning commission for recommen-; dation, it was explained.
