This week, we fimd the Blue
Star Girls hglding the spotlight for the attraction of the
week, which was a popularity
contest and dance, given in honof the soldiers from Fort

or
Custer. There were about 200
or more soldiers present.The

Blue Star Girls, although small
in number, excell at the art of
hostesses for the occasion. The
main attraction of the evening
was the crowning of the pop
ularity queen, who was none
~hear than our own ex-Gy
Mamie T. Wright. Verlene Gibson took second place honors.
Music for the affair. was supplied by superb. band of Gere
Seals. Many celebrities were on
hand to add class to this benefit ball. Aryong the many celebrities present, we saw: Dr.
and Mrs. J. D. Wilson and party, Attorney Elizah Scott, Violet Phinesee, Thomas Terry, Dr.

Wrex Weaxer, Mr.. J. P. Bryant, Captain James. Murgeson,
Esther Quinn, Mazie Travis,

Fredia Sherwocd, Vasti Brown,
Rebert Tawner, Charles Mills,
and it was quite noticeable that
those V-12 Commandos turned
out in full numbers, to assist
the girls with the support for
a worthy cause. Last but not
least, the master of ceremonies~
was none other than the world
famcvis Marcellus Wilson, our
own home town talent, who has
entertained soldiers all over the
world, traveling with a USO
Unit,, and. still doing his bit: for
all worthy causes.

Next leading event of rthe|:

week was the Sportmen's Club
Family Party, which cekebrities '
from far and near attended. |

thews, John Thompson, and!
Purnell Hall proved once more}
that they are~fops.in the art |

was held at the Royal Gardens |

| Club. It was well attended and |

everyone had a good time. Ed-|
