Miss Melba Chehak. Harlalee
Wilson. Bernard Windt and Al
mus Pruitt gave their first pub
lic penormance since organiza
tion last fall, and the response
was heart-warming. While the
audience was not large, the ap
plause was so enthusiastic as to
almost bewilder the players. Par
ticularly was this true of the
number presented by Miss Che
hak and Mr. Wilson, with Miss
Chehak playing the viola and
Mr. Wilson the violin. These two
arc not only fine musicians but
they are musically compatible
and the style of each seems to
complement the other's.
A number of Miss Chchak's
high school orchestra musicians
were in the audience and they
were sympathetic when the
teacher lost her mute from where
it had been placed on the stand.
While steadily playing she kept
trying to search for it with her
eyes and when the moment came
to adjust it on the instrument,
she hastily scooped it up from
where it had fallen on the hem
of her full skirt.
An even more amusing inci
dent put the audience in a laugh
ing mood at the lecture of Dr.
Munk Tuesday night. Mrs. Stan
ley E. Phillips, president of the
league, found the microphone
had not been hooked up when
she rose to introduce the speak
er, and she had to go through
the preliminaries of whispering
"testing, testing" into the instru
ment, etc. Finally she began a
remark and just as the first word
"perhaps came out the perverse
mike clicked on and the one
word boomed out and echoed
around the room .The startled
president leaned backward sev
eral inches but then regained her
composure and joined in the
laughter.
While those in the audience
probably didn't agree, Dr. Munk
decided his lecture was not up
to par and blamed it on the ex
cellence of the dinner which he
i had enjoyed in the home of Mr.
j and Mrs. Leonard Carpenter be
i fore he spoke.
Some 200 women turned out
for the card party of social club
Wednesday. Ever listen to a room
full of women having fun over
luncheon and bridge? From a dis-
tance it sounds like the beating
! of the surf or the hum of a giant
j swarm of bees. However, there
doesn't seem to be anything quite
i so popular with the average
, American woman as luncheon
I and cards to say nothing of the
! added attraction of a style show,
I which the party had Wednesday.
Over the luncheon table the
women exchange recipes, symp
toms, and the newest small talk
about their friends. They hear
about the latest tirnj; in make-up,
j how to make over a dress, where
to find a good Kalian dinner and
! learn that black and white ter
riers are common bv." that brown
I and white terriers are fairly rare,
j It's fascinating.
The women Wednesday who
j were novices at tne modeling
j business went around afterwards
i asking their friends "how did
i we look?" Some were a little
surprised to find that everything
! had gone smoothly as they re
membered the behind-scenes con
I fusion and the welter of clothes,

laces, hats, furs and a dozen oth

been to Timberline lodge on Mt.
Hood. Among these were Dr. and
Mrs. O..J. Halboth, who were in
a party which included Dr. and
Mrs. Ralph Hibbs of Portland
and Mr. and Mrs. Jack Marshall
of Seattle, the, latter being sister
and brother-in-law of Mrs. Hal
both. The John Days and their
son, Jack, have also been recent
Mt. Hood visitors.
Mrs.' Halboth described the
skiing as excellent but has de
cided that her brand of skiing is
not what she would like it to be.
Some have been vacationing at
California beaches and in Nev
ada. Arriving home this week
end are Mr. and Mrs. George
Roberts and Mrs. Corbin Edgell,
who have been at Carmel. Oth
ers who have been at Carmel and
at Las Vegas are Mr. and Mrs.
Martin Luther Sr., Mrs. Marjorie
Pitts. Mrs. Lillian Saladc and
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Norris.
The returning travelers last
week found many signs of spring
at home. Sunshiny days saw peo
ple again strolling through the
parks and resting on the park
benches and those who have
maple trees were attaractcd by
the hum of bees, for some of the
maples are putting out their ear
ly spring blossoms.
This week's dog story Is about
Hale Greenman, and the family
canines. It seems Mr. Greenman
went down town late one after
noon to buy a gift for his wife,
taking the two dogs in the fam
ily car. He returned with his
purchase and a couple of hours
later when Mrs. Greenman went
to give the dogs their evening
meal she was surprised to find
both gone. Hearing this. Mr.
Greenman gave his wife a
strange look, raced out to the
car and down town. Arriving in
the vicinity of Swem's store,
where he had parked while shop
ping, Mr. Greenman found the
two dogs anxiously scanning ev
ery passing car.
Herschel Morris. It seems, is a
camera fan, and like most of his
picture-taking friends, is always
making shots of his family,
friends and their activities. Last
Sunday the Morrises celebrated
their silver wedding anniversary
and after the party was over and
the last guest gone, Mr. Morris
suddenly remembered that he
had not taken a single picture.
