Six boys from the LeRoy Boys' Home were guests of the Hoo-Hoo club and were presented with gifts from the club and Dee Essley. In addition to the personal gifts, they were recipients of a $200 check to help complete the woodworking shop sponsored by the Los Angeles club. This amount was raised by donation to the Christmas fund and from the sale of tickets,by the three beautiful girls secured by Larry Weiland to stimulate ticket sales.

Snark Jim Forgie thanked the committee for a ,,fine job well done" but remarked that the club was stuck f.or 52 "no-show" reservations, which had to be paid for from the treasury. This debit, exceeding g200; took some joy out of the party, but those members who missed the a,ffair were the losers in the long run.

In the golf department, handled by the capable co-chairmen Harvey Koll and Ernie Thomas, the low gross T. M. Cobb trophy was won by George Fredrickson with a 79.

In the first flight, Ernie Thomas was lst low net with a 73 and Fred Calhoun 2nd low net with a 74. Les Kutz walked off with the lst low net in the second flight with a 63 and Bernie Dubnow came in a close second with a 64. Snark Forgie lead the third flight with a net 73.

The Atlas Lumber Company retailers cup was presented to Tom Fleming, who shot a 75, and the guest trophy Was won by A. H. Jackson of the Union Lumber Co. Lloyd Jorgensen won the blind bogey 935 kitty with a 73, but in view of the fact he was not present to receive the cash it was added to the LeRoy Boys' Home fund. Ken Kenottel made a "hole-in-one," but he, too, was not available for the "pay-off" . . . Come out of the woods, Ken, as Jerry Essley has the $81 for you.

If you missed the 1956 Christmas party, plan to attend the next one because they are loaded with good entertainment, fun and frolic for evervbodv.
