UMBOLDT Hoo-Hoo Club 63. the club that definitely knows how, scored again with a record turnout at the Elks Club in Eureka, March 23, honoring Snark of the Universe Glenn Ross, clear from Minneapolis to be on hand for the Concatenation of 19 (what other number?) nineteen new Kittens into the everlasting gardens of Hoo-Hoo land.

A little corny, yes, but Humboldt Hoo-Hoo Club would sincerely like to thank Snark Glenn for making the trip and we might add that it was all due to tle energy and efforts expended by another past Snark, Rameses 48, name of Dave Davis. Originally scheduled for late January and obviously postponed because of the flood disaster in the Northwes! the meeting

|0NG-SIZE C0]{CAT drew a near-record crowd of Humboldt Hoo-Hoos.

An added attraction was a drawins for a portable TV set, and herein lies anither story. As anyone lvho's been to Humboldt county knows, Charlie Murray, proprietor of the Alibi Club in Arcata, needs another idiot box about as much as Jackie Gleason, so who wins the beautiful little set? Charlie Murray (sigh).
