hear warming part of the presentations is the heartv clap of appreciation by the non winning representatives of the weekly press their sports manship is unequalled in any ere ative field that f know of ror this dinner 1 chose to wear a little beige linen and lace number it should have been labelled suit able for married women only why because married men are reputablv adept with balky up pers on
