Partying Little MiSs Diana Lee Belford had her fifth birthday party on Tuesday. November 12, at 2 o'clock. Diana's birthday was actually Oct. 25 but had more fun at her belated party than she would have had at the party on the twenty-fifth because she and some of the guests were sick that day. Diana's guests list included Marlene Karmel, Vallerie Marie and Donna Louise Schiavone, Debbie Arnold, Susie Crawley, Bill and Judy Fantus, and her brother, Earel, Jr., and sisters, Cynthia Katherine and Christina Jane. Diana directed her group in games and listening to records. The children recorded their voices and then listened to them, and as usual, the highlight* was opening the presents and seeing the pretty birthday cards and refreshments. Diana selected her favorite chocolate cake, and each guest was served -a miniature two-tier cake with a candle, milk and ice cream. The hostess made the favors that were used as placards. If the guests enjoyed the afternoon as much as the hostess, a good time was had by all. Personals We are glad to report Mrs. Fred Fradinardo is improving at her home on Hillcrest Drive.
