Eastlake Park
Highlights
By Shirley Smith.
Here we are together again
with happenings at Eastlake
Park. Mrs. Mason reminds all
who have not registered for
copper enameling course to
come out Wednesday nights at
7:30. This course is offered
through the month of October
and will be continued as long
as desired.
Xmas is only three months
off and here is an opportunity
to make gifts—jewelry, ash trays
and belts for a nominal cost
The art is fascinating as well
as profitable.
Girls! girls! girls! there are
sports galore out here at East
lake. Volleyball season is here
and a great number of games
scheduled throughout the sea
son. Basketball follows.
The pre-teen hour is coming
along swell each Monday after
noon. The hour is being ac
cupied at present by beginners
cha-cha-cha lessons. Beginning
dancers include Cornelia Moore,
Carol and Patricia Mason, Mar
va Waldon and others. Every
one is invited to participate
providing they are 11, 12, or 13
years old.
The Teenage Club met in the
game room Thursday Sept. 26.
This is a newly formed club
whose officers are: Don Cham
bers, president; Fred Jones, vice
president and Violetta Brown,
secretary. The clubs next meet
ing is on October 10. No name
has been selected for the club
and the president invites, all
teenagers to take part. This club
will be in charge of all teenage
dances given here at the park.
Now let’s climb the fence to
the teenage happenings. Mexine
Johnson was hollering Dan
Concholar all over the building.
We can’t even hear a whisper
of that name now Shirley
Dennis, have you hooked Char
les Hamilton? Margie is quiet,
but pays a watching— When
askpd why he played football so
hard Bobby Coleman implied,
“That’s the only way to get a
girl In this crazy town” Jerry
these girls are on to that front
you are pushing around— Ear
line Sims, please decide between
Stanley and David.
Well bye now, see you next
week and keep this column in
mind. There is more to follow
in the near future.

SIR FRODDY GRANT REAL MAESTRO OF CALYPSO
Sir Freddy Grant was born in
British Guiana and launched his
musical career at the age of 7
years. Suffice it to say that he
plays all of the reed instruments
well, and has enhanced his
writing and arranging talents
through formal study in his na
tive land and at the Royal Aca
demy of Music in London. Dur- v
ing this period he served as a
musical director for the BBC
on overseas broadcast titled
“London Jazz” the

Through his natural heritage,
Sir Freddy has made a penetrat
