f OYAL IIEI,IBERS of San Franciseo

! Hoo-Hoo Club 9 braved drivine wind and rain in early December to attend a big Concat and dinner at the fashionable WorlJ Trade Club overlooking San Francisco Bay.

Spearheaded by Supreme Nine member Larry Owen and Club 9 prexy Pete Johnson, newly elected secretary of the California Redwood Association, the kitten hunt bagged four fine new members for the club and the International Order via the newly implemented short lorm initiation procedure.

Club secretary Art Wall notes that while San Francisco's Giants faded in the stretch (again) and its 49ers should have quit after their exhibition season, the paid membership of Club 9 is running a healthy ten peroent over last year and all signs point to a banner 1968 for one of the oldest chapters in the order.
