A season of senior parties in Blanding had an ideal beginning last Friday night when 27 class mates, wearing their very best clothes and happiest smiles, were seated at a long table at Nedra Palmers home to enjoy a semi formal dinner. Co hostesses with Nedra were Carol Black and Verdawn Guymon, and of course the three mothers were the cooks. Two junior girls did the serving. The table was very attractive with tall blue candles and the colorful trimmings. The food was so tasty, that none seemed in a hurry to finish eating. After the party, the crowd went to the budget dance. City-Council- , |
