ovation when he was presented his "Past Presidents" pin by Rameses 29, C. D. LeMaster, who is also Seer of lhe House of Ancients. "Le," as he is affectionately known to all Hoo-Hoo, took this opportunity to briefly 6xplain National Forest Products week, which will be held iach year from now on during the week of September'9th, to honor the fraternal order of lumbermen and the industry.
To further honor Snark Braley, he was named "President Emeritus," for his faithful guidance of the club and hard work during his tenure of office. Don will serve on the Steering committee and aid the new board of directors to raise money for club activities and charity donations.
One of the highlights of the evening was the presentation of golf and door prizes. Chuck Lember and his staff did a splendid job in selection of more than a dozen fine gifts for the lucky Cats. Harvey Koll handed out gift orders to the warriors of the l8-hole course who had a good day.
As usual, Don Vogt won the low gross prize with a 76. In the first flight, Ken Kenoffel was lst low net and Dick Nelson placed 2nd. Emil Lug was lst low net in the 2nd flight and (of all people) incoming Snark Harold Cole was 2nd. The 3rd flight low net was won by Rudy Roodman with a 62.
Retailer Harry Boand, immediate past president, was the winner of the Retailer prize but was not present to receive it-so it was held over for the luckv merchant winner at the September 11 contest. Paul Sink, general manager of \tlason Supplies, was the winner of the guest prize. The Blind Bogey money was "split" between Tom Crain and retailer "Bud" Nelson. And Chairman Koll reoorts the Hole-In-One cash is building again for some lucky'guy with a good eye for distance.
Loud and boisterous enthusiasm greeted the entertainers. Mistress of Ceremonies Billie Bird opened the show with fast and witty remarks to prepare the "Lumber Jacks" for the coming events. Then Siad Symal took over with her Oriental dances, with accompanist Jack Aaronson at the piano. She was followed by Jackie Paul, who entertained the group with her interpretive exhibit of the mystery dances of the seven ( ?) veils, and then poor Russ Clark had to follow with his fine puppet act as the closer. Believe it or not, the little miniature dolls furnished the wild men of lumber with the most amusement. However, it was real good entertainment and all arranged by Larry Weiland.
As his last official act as president of Club 2, Don Braley adjourned the meeting. He thanked the membership for its genuine support during the past year and declared he enjoyed his tenure at the helm of the largest Hoo-Hoo club in the world. He asked for full support of the incoming Snark Cole, and again called upon the Cats to attend all meetings.
"Only by your attendance do you show your interest in your club. And remember, you will get just as much out of Hoo-Hoo as you put in," he said.
