This welfare dinner-social has been scheduled for Thursday, March 6, with all adult members of the ward invited in-vited to join in sharing the fine Lion House in downtown alt meal and excellent entertainment. entertain-ment. This party is being planned as a climax to the welfare fund drive. A letter has been mailed to each family in the ward asking ask-ing that every wage earner contribute con-tribute one day's pay for this fund. A priesthood member will call at each home for the envelope en-velope containing the contribution contribu-tion and wall leave tickets for the dinner.

At this time, quorum and group awards won during 1946 will be presented, as well as individual in-dividual awards for both young men and young women. This will be a fitting climax to "Youth Week" in East Mill Creek ward. After its fourth performance, everyone will agree that the stake play, "The Visitors," is a real success. Audiences at Grandview, East Mill Creek, Rosecrest, and Evergreen wards will vouch for its being a superior su-perior performance. The play was under the direction of Miss Dorothy Jacobson, drama director direct-or of the stake. The play is a recent Broadway hit by Kenneth White. Though the cast was small, all did their parts exceptionally well. Jeannine Blake, us a rather rath-er grouchy maid, certainly did carry over that thought. The three "teen-agers" around whom te mystery revolves and who fi. nally settle the whole thing, were well-cast in their parts and did a most commendable job. They were Betty Ixu Cooney as Ellen Wood; Jay Haight, who played Joe AVillard; and Lloyd Cooney who was Bud Owen. Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham, in whose f living room the action takes place, were played by Andre Anastasiou and Darleen North, both of whom arc to be com-mended com-mended also for tneii- performances. perform-ances. Bill Hesterman, as Walter Walt-er Dawson, was excellent at always al-ways talcing the blame for what he never did; and if you didn't know better, you'd think that Carl Roestenburg was really a retired policeman. There will be one more performance per-formance of the play, next Tuesday, Tues-day, Feb. 25. As a pleasant surprise to all residents of East Mill Creek will come the news of the marriage mar-riage of Lydia Fisher to Jack Feigh. Lydia, who is the daughter daugh-ter of Mr. and Mrs. M. R.

The Olympus Junior High school band is rated as one of the best bands in Granite district, dis-trict, including the high school bands. They have been chosen by the district to provide much music for Centennial celebrations celebra-tions this summer. During the Christmas holidays, this band won first prize in the Christinas parade in Salt Lake. AH this leads up to the fact that the members of the band are sorely in need of new uniforms. uni-forms. Last year a campaign Mas held to raise money for the band, but only enough vias received to buy new hats and ties. Now that band feels they have earned the right to new uniforms from head to foot. An organization of parents of the band members has been established es-tablished for the express purpose pur-pose of raising the needed money, mon-ey, and many civic organizations organiza-tions have extended their willingness wil-lingness to help in this malter. For their part, the Olympus Junior High school is presenting a band concert on March 12 in the Granite High auditorium. |
