Mrs. L. Virginia Brown
Sponsors Young People’s
Dance At USO Building
Plans for the first party in
the former USO Club building
under the sponsorship of L. Vir
ginia Brown, owner of the Nome
Theater, have been announced.
Mrs. Brown said the party is for
all the youth of the community,
including teen-agers, servicemen,
young married adults and all the
young people who like to dance.
She said the dance will be
run on USO rules which means
that no liquor will be allowed.
Other parties are planned and
. plans are under way to use the
building on a non-profit basis for
community projects of many
kinds.
Members of the former USO
Board are being invited to have
a “look - see” Saturday evening
and be on hand for the floor show.
The management regrets that
the club room is completely
stripped of furniture as it was all
taken out when the USO moved
out, but they hope to have chairs
before the next event takes place.
