THE HIGHLAND PARK PRESS Members of the Pi Delta club and friends are cordially invited to a picnic supper at the home of Mrs. Dudley Dewey, County Line, on Wednesday, June 21. Everyone is to meet at the "Y" at 6:15 for Pi Delta Club Plans Picnic At Home Of Mrs. Dewey â€" Gert Kinnell and George Womack handled their parts in a winning way and David Durston and Alta Wilson were convincing in their parts. & Newcomer Olga Topper as Madame Daruschka was not only perfect for her part, but highly humorâ€" ous as well and deserves extra applause.
