CRATERS BANQUE
T
"A real part- was the unanimous
verdict of those who attended the
banquet and dance given by lire
Craters last night for their ladies and
a few guests. 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. The principle speakers
of the evening were E. C. Oaddis,
mayor of Medford, C. E. Gates, for
mer mayor and active in state af
fairs and Cius Newbury, one of Med
ford's most prominent lawyers. Bob
Doyle, big eruption of the Craters,
Introduced these men with the re
mark that "Southern Oregon had
been combed for speakers for this
big annual Craters' event and the
committee has been fortunate in se
curing three of tho most prominent
men In this section." A motion was
adopted to extend the good wishes
of the Craters to Sam lcichardson,
who is ill In Portland.
Following the banquet tho meeting
adjourned to the American Degion
hall where an amusing entertainment
started off with a bang. 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. Every one of tho various
numbers went off exactly as pre-arranged
and there was something
doing every minute.
For the next meeting Ocorge
Oates will handle the program and
he has promised a good one. Big
Krupllon Boyle urged n largo atten
dance on April 30th, when important
mutters will bo considered by the
Craters.
