Los Angeles Hoo-Hoo Valentine Party Was a BIG Nisht

Approximately 120 members of Los Angeles Hoo-Hoo Club f2, their wives and guests, attended a gala Valentine's Day dinner. dance at General Lee's in Chinatown on February 14.

After a lively cocktail hour, guests enjoyed the excellent Cantonese food of General Lee's and a Variety Show by the South Bay Sweethearts.

The evening was rounded out by hours of dancing to the music of the Jerry Cambpell Combo.

We have stated in the past that the trophy for "best party givers" has variously passed from the Inland Empire Hoo-Hoo Club, to San Diego to the club in San Fernando Valley. With this recent "Hoo-down" the Los Angeles club now holds the honors, We have just one criticism and suggestion, however. For Pete's sake, let's not have another such affair on a u;eek night! We have an idea that the conduct of the lumber industry in the L.A. area sufiered mightily on the following day!
