The Cozy The Vernonia Study Club met Thursday evening, Oct. 4, at the home of Mrs. Holly Holcomb, Jr. 1 Mrs. Clarence Holamberg, sister of Mrs. Merle Ruhl, was a guest of the evening. During the business session Mrs. Harry Culbertson, the pres ident of the Club, asked the civ ic committee to attend the next Booster Club dinner and offer our assistance and cooperation in establishing a youth recreational center, which project had been discussed at one of their meet ings. Mrs. Marvin Kamholz was in charge of the program for the evening and she presented a very interesting review of the book, “The Pattern of Soviet Power” by Edgar Snow, indisputably one of the best informed of foreign correspondents. Edgar Shaw pro vides in “The Pattern of Soviet Power” a direct reply to the cas ual critics of a country and peo ple that stemmed the tide of Fascism.
