Show Celebrating more than 92 years of service to the citizens of Eureka. Volume Ninety-Thre- e EUREKA, UTAH - February 27, 1998 Price $.40 By Gloria G. Rife There were thirty Senior Citizens who met at the center Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. to celebrate Valentines Day. We entered the beautifully decorated hall and enjoyed looking at all the pretty, clever and funny decorations. Ron Cones, who was conducting, called on Rusty Rife to offer the invocation. Reported on the sick list were the following: Joe Bernini, Pete Sorensen, Marcella Chambers. Dora Hansen and Lova Jones. We wish them the best and hope they will each be feeling better soon. One table held the homemade Valentines brought by the members. The judges chose the red cat brought by Edna Jasper, as the "prettiest"; Mabel and Curt Butlers big duck was declared the "funniest"; and the "most original" was won by Betty Cones. All the Valentines made for a very festive table. Judges were: Betty Walker, Laura McIntyre ami Afton Berry. The dinner, prepared under the direction of Maxine Schow and Betty Cones, with some dishes prepared by members, was just delicious. Who could ask for anything more.. turkey, dressisng, potatoes and gravy, creamed peas, set salad, olives, hot rolls, ice cream and heart shaped sugar cookies. We extend our thanks to all who helped in any way with that great meal. Drawing for the door prizes was next. A young grandson of LeRoy and Mary Lou Gourley, was chosen to do the drawing. Would you believe that LeRoy and Maty Lou were each a winner, as was Edna Jasper. They each received a $2.00 bill.

Pictures get identified As promised, the pictures from the 1930s, which appeared in the February 20, 1998 edition of the Eureka Reporter, are identified as follows: Columns Top to Bottom from the left: Beverly and Billy Tinder. Second column: June Carlson (1936), (the man pictured with her is the photographer); Virginia Swenson (1933); Elva Allman (1933). Third column: Merle Fox (1936); Noel Allman (1933); Jessie Beaton (1938). Fourth column: Gordon Tinder. Possibly because the paper had only been out 1 day (Monday) and this writing is on Tuesday.. only one call was received to identify the pictures. Our thanks to LcRoy and Mary Lou Gourley for giving it a try. While some of the people pictured looked familiar to them.. they could only identify one.. Beverly and Billy Tinder. The two games we played.. A Floral Wedding and Famous Couples, proved to be lots of fun. We really had to put on our "thinking caps" to come up with the answers. Old It's amazing how Edna Jasper and Leah Towers can come up with the. many different things they have, to decorate for any occasion. Besides this, they and Tarsula Lucas, Margaret Fennell, Mabel Butler, and others, always help in the kitchen. Im sure Ron and Betty Cones, who were in charge of the party, appreciated the help that was given. Our next meeting will be Wednesday, March 4, 1998 at noon and will be "Potluck."
