Last Saturday evening somewhere in the neighborhood of 175 persons gathered at the community club hall for the annual bowling dinner. The evening started out with the serving of a most delicious roast beef dinner with all the trimmings. As the tables were cleared and put away, the "distribution of trophies and prize money got underway. Coming out on top of all events was Bud Miller on a scratch basis, while Harry Freund had quite a surprised look on his face when he was called upon to receive a trophy. He earned it for all events with handicap. Joe "Frett was the lucky recipient of the singles trophy and Paul Boyk and Ed Hettermann combined their bowling skill to win the doubles event. The first place winning team consisted of Ray Grok, Bill Pierce, Sr., Arnold Thelen, Harry Thelen and Lawrence Pitzen. Our congratulations to these skillful bowlers.

During the course of the evening some of the party-goers enjoyed a- little exercise when they tried out the Clubs newly acquired ping pong tables.
