It was undoubtc-dly one of the most brilliant affairs of the season and even eclipsed the ladies night entertainment of the Craters' club last year. There was not a dull moment; the entire pro gram was filled with songs, music skits and dancing and last night's event sets a new high mark for sim ilar affairs in the future. A banquet in the Dinty Mohr hall of the Hotel Medford headed the program card. The air was filled with colored balloons and novelties were distributed. A musical program of unusual excellence was presented during the dinner which featured a duet by Charles O'llara and W. V. Iaacs, a song and saxophone selec tion by Herb Alford assisted by Herb launspach On the piano, and a song by Hill Vawter. Kacn one of these contributions was accorded a .veri table ovation.

Paul Mc Donald, assisted by Chester Darr and a dummy 'model from Deuel's store, scored a hit with a little skit "Oh Min." "The Art Iovers- Dengue" next held the stage and expressed the general opinion men have of a ladies' card party. Darry Bchade, Louie 11 rlch. Kay Itcter, Hob Deuel and Herb Crey were, the leading actresses. Larry Mann and Jerry Jerome then delved into the dark ages in a little entertainment entitled "Tut-Tut" In which old King Tutcnkhamen made a hit. At tho conclusion of the entertain ment a dance was enjoyed in the le gion dance hall with Launspach's or chestra supplying tho necessary mel ody. The entire program was a de cided buccpss, much of the credit for which Is duo to Chester Burr, chnlr- man of the program committee and his asslstunt, C. C. Lemon, and E. C. Kcrguson.
