Social Lites - - CALL 6-9228 or 6-9284 - - by Jo By JO PETTYJOHN I GUESS two of the social high lights of the spring are the grade school party given by the Elks and the annual Band Carn ival. The party was a dancing success, as one Soroptimist mem ber put it, 'Those kids really do like to dance!" The Sorop timist gals prepared and served the refreshments of chip and dip, cupcakes, and punch throughout the evening. I must renege on my statement of last week as to who furnishes the food, it is furnished by the Elks, not the Soroptimists. I think every year when I write about the parties I do get confused on this detail! The youngsters voted against any games and said only that they wanted to dance, twist and all! Many of the students won prizes during the dances. ooo AS FOR the Band Carnival, what fun everyone had! I was still selling hot dogs when some of the booths ran out of prizes so had to close up shop. Just loads of people enjoying a wonderful evening. ooo MILLIE EVANS won high Friday afternoon at Pinochle club at the home of Beulah Mankin. Ann Fehmerling held low, Mil lie and Beulah won the pin ochle and Beulah teamed up with Hannah Anderson to meld 1500 trump! Quite a day at the Mankin home! Also in on the play were Mary Harris, Pearl Wright, Doris Watkins, Gladys Beckett was unable to play that day. ooo SWISS STEAK (sounds delic ious), molded jello salad, toss ed green salad, peas, baked po tato, and lemon torte dessert was the menu Monday night at the OEA dinner held in Heppner. Marge Gardner was chairman assisted by Ruth Van Winkle and Mary Malcolm. They served the dinner buffet style to 70 teachers in the school lunch room. They held their meeting following the dinner. Mary made the dessert and Marge says she was up until early Monday morning, 2:00 a.m. that is, fin ishing the delicacy! 0 0 0 PHIL MAHONEY and Bert Huff won high north-south at the Elks duplicate bridge Tuesday night. Gordon Pratt and Jim Driscoll were second high. Jerry and Marian Jonasson were high east-west, Fay Ferguson and Hazel Hamlin were second. Eight tables were in play and they will meet again May 14. The monthly unit party is at 2:00 p.m. Sunday, May 5 in the Elks lodge room. TALK ABOUT confusion, Marge Eckman had it last week. It seems she was to have pinochle club on Tuesday, then her sis ter called that they were coming to visit, so she moved tables and dessert to Gail Burkenbine's home. Then her sister called to say they weren't coming, so Marge gave up, went to "her" party at Gail's home! ! Other no-so-confused members play ing were Christine Buschke, Jackie Allstott, Jackie Glennie, Mickey Mollahan, Beverly Sher man, and Carolyn Cole. Carolyn won high, Beverly, the pinochle; and Uau was low. ooo I HEARD Jack Loyd ask Colleen Ployhar if she had gotten her letter. Colleen explained that she had sent a wedding present to newlyweds, Larry and Linda Prock, and they had sent a 'thank you' card to "Mr. and Mrs. Jack," Heppner, Ore., when the letter got here it was put in Jack Loyd's box and finally Shirley figured out who it was to go to, so she called Colleen! Colleen said she guessed they didn't know how to spell "Ploy har!" Isn't it nice to live in a small town. We do get our mail! ooo ANY HOUSEWIFE looking for new and different ways of cooking chicken is invited to at tend the Heppner Extension unit meeting Tuesday at the home of Mrs. Ray Drake, starting at 10:30. Poultry cooking will be the project. A good lunch will be served at a small charge. ooo FORECAST FOR beef and pork supplies shows sufficient, so expect to continue to see store specials. Watch for a host of roasts and chops, including flavorful smoked and cured hams, picnic, and bacon; meaty spareribs or short ribs, sausages, ground beef. Here is a tasty spring menu: barbecued spare ribs, baked potatoes, tossed green salads, strawberry short cake, French bread, and choice of beverage. Speaking of barbe cuing, we dug out the grill and cooked up some nice juicy beef steaks Sunday afternoon and then the kids roasted marsh mallows over the still hot coals after dinner. Sounds as if we're rushing spring and summer a little? Maybe it will hurry it along the way! ! Mrs. Edna Woods. Yakima. visited her granddaughter and family, Mr. and Mrs- Elmer Berry, Sunday and Monday. Boxboard for making signs and decorations at the Gazette-Times, available in white and colors.
