PISTAKEE HIGHLANDS By: Wanda Dobecki and Dolly Novotny . P.H.C.A. The report of last night's meeting will be in next week's column. Be sure and watch for all, the details of the new projects being started in the community. mat A Night The newcomers' dance on May ~25~ was a howling success. Newcomers and oldcomers enjoyed dancjng, refreshments and meeting new friends. But the highlight of the evening definitely was the spectacular floor show put on by our local yokels. To open the show Carl Haefliger played a few lively numbers on his banjo while the crowd joined him in singing. This put everyone in the mood for the "Highland Hicks," who were Toots Spankuch, Pat Jackson and Wanda Dobecki in disguise. They "sang" a number which ended up sounding strangely' like the Mc- Guire. sisters. Next, the spectators joined in a game of "Beat the Clock," led by the very able M.C. for the evening, George Mitchell. The grand finale was a group very misleadingly called the Pistakee symphonic quintet. This unforgettable five were attired in calypso costumes and used dome very strange looking instruments for their musical r^JL_*flS^rnpaniment. They were Floyd Johnson, Roger Pechous, Skip \Vilson, Lou Spankuch and Don Dobecki and they did three numbers which aptly displayed their individual talent and proved hilarious to watch. They will be the Spike Jones group of Pistakee in the future and I'm sure they will be called Upon to do another number for future engagements. It was very nice to see so many newcomers and make so many new friends. A lot of our old timers couldn't make it and I'm sure they're--soTry they missed the fun. As usual, the success of a party like this i£ Hue to the help of many, so we7wish to thank the memberships committee for planning it and donating the sandwiches and all the performers and all the gals who helped make candles for tables and decorate the barn. They all donated their time and talent just so We could all have a good time and I know they succeeded very well. We'r | already looking forward to the next one. Bowling Banquet The 'teenagers also had their evening for fun when they had their bowling banquet on May 24 at the barn. The sandwiches, salads, etc., were donated by the moms and everyone had a good time eating and dancing. The decorating was done by Erna Rockel and helpers and they wish to give a special thanks to Dot Johnson^ who organized the evening of fun for them.
