Redmond Dancing Club Party
Is Hilarious Cosfume Affair
Redmond, March 16 The an
nual costume party of Redmond's
Seventy and Five dancing club,
held Saturday night at the VFW
hall, was' declared "out of this
world" by participants, who had
difficulty recognizing even their
best friends.
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.
