Whist Drive and Fancy Dress Dance
The attendance at the whist drive and dance held at the Village Hall on Tuesday evening exceeded all expectations. The event was an entire success, and the promoters are to be congratulated on the result. The proceeds are being devoted to the Social Club.
Fifteen tables were in use for whist, and the following were the successful players:
Ladies - 1 Miss Hilda Reed (umbrella), 2 Mrs Barnes (chocolates); consolation, Miss Dora Jackson (handkerchiefs).
Gents - 1 Master T. Hummerstone (walking stick), 2 Mr L. Pegram (cigarettes); consolation, Mr Alec Pratt (handkerchiefs).
There were several entries for the fancy dress competition. Mr Hugh Holmes as "John Bull" won first prize (fountain pen), Miss Theakston as a "Dutch Boy" second (box of chocolates), while the prize (a clock) for the most original design was won by Miss Deacon, her "scarecrow" costume being very striking.
The prizes were presented to the winners by Mrs H.H. Williams who congratulated the recipients.
An excellent programme of up-to-date dance music was provided by Mr C. Little. Mr H. Bright very ably acted as M.C. throughout the evening.
