There has been a lot of activity at the greens this spring since- new lights had to be installed and other things updated. The Club is hoping to attract many new members this year and have bowls on hand for you to use and special teachers to help get you started. This is a great game— if you have ever curled you will love lawn bowling. Young eighteens and up to 80 and over, can enjoy this game — it is easily learned and you don't need to think it is difficult or tiring. We have quite a number of our older citizens playing now and hope many more. will come out. Come over any evening or Tuesday afternoon and try it: I know you will soon be a great member enjoying a great game. Last ,Saturday nite at the Sorority May Ball I thought a miracle was happening. Our former taxi driver, who has been fighting an uphill battle for many months since his stroke, couldn't resist the music and danced with everyone within reach -- most of them he didn't have to reach. — they came to him. He used to cut..,a mean rug — enjoyed, every minute of it -- and and to not be able to walk freely or dance has been a great blow to him. "Can't make that darned left leg undersand what I'm trying. to do," he complained, but he still tried and we all ap- preciated the great effort he made. This fight takes will power, guts and pain pills and I think .he's got it beat. Last week..I twisted a couple of dates around— sorry, girl's. I hope I haven't fouled things up for these nice groups.'
