ARCTIC CLUB DINNER-DANCE
WEDNESDAY “ALL RIGHT"
(Contributed)
Last Wednesday night the Arc
tice Club held its second din-j
ner dance and presented the ski
trophies to the winners for the!
1940 ski season. Those receiving j
trophies and prizes were: Charles
O’Leary, Freddy Kubon, Eddie'
Higgenbotham and Jean Hilshie.
Is that pessimist around who
was overheard last month saying:
“The Arctic Club will certainly
have a hard time putting on an
other party as successful as the
first one.”
We think Walter Glavinovich
missed his calling as the party
Wednesday was equally as suc
cessful as the first. It was a real;
Spring BaLloon dance and from
the moment the crowd arrived
everything and everyone was up
in the air.
The dedication numbers were
clever, the high light, we think, j
being the one dedicated to Larry!
Galvin —“The Man Who Comes
To Our House.”
Neva Whaley entertained with!
a new dance number which,, as!
usual, was good. Everyone was
glad she and Cinderella wore the
same size shoe.
Finally we wish to congratul-!
ate Charles Esch on the manner'
in which he handled the role of1
Master of Ceremonies and wei
are sure that all members will!
j
join him at the next Arctic Club
affair sometime this summer and
will be prepared for moquitoes,
sand in our shoes, and ants in
our . . . sandwiches.
