Show City to Stage Big Hospital Dance Dec. 5th Opportunity knocks but once, the old saying goes- The citizens of American Fork have an opportunity before them of establishing a permanent per-manent institution which is needed and wanted in this community, that of a Community Hospital- The rare opportunity whereby the city can purchase the former Co-op. property on Main street, one of the choicest lcations in the city, for practically a "song" is here. Everyone knows to what strain the city budget has been put and a group of progressive citizens have come to the rescue that the deal may be clinched and the project become a reality. On December 5th, Wednesday, in the Apollo Hall, there will be given one of the biggest community dances American Fork has ever known. Big, not only from the standpoint of attendance, but more important still, from the point of financial gain. Representatives of the civic and religious organizations of the city will be called into service and everyone will be contacted and asked to support the movement. The dance will bring in practically a hundred percent clear profit as everything connected with it is expected ex-pected to be nonated. A substantial payment on the $2500 for which the building may be purchased has been made but there yet remains a bal- ance which must be met before the option expires- A committee was named to make arrangements for the dance consisting consist-ing of Earl Holmstead, president of the Lions Club as chairman; Len-ard Len-ard Pett, secretary; Miss Melba Bar-ratt, Bar-ratt, treasurer; Glen Chadwick, chairman of advertising committee; Mrs. Dena Grant, Leo Nelson, Francis Fran-cis Foster, Bernell Crystal and Bishop Bish-op Joseph H. Storrs, assistants; J. J. Mercer, Jr., chairman of tickets committee; S. T. Shelley, assistant chairman: Mrs- Laura Dunkley, Mrs. Jennie Bate and Mrs. Nell Moffett, Mof-fett, assistants. The city will be districted off and groups representing the various organizations or-ganizations of the city will sell tickets tick-ets In these districts. I |
