Tawasi Holds Annual Luncheon At Houston Lake Country Club Members of The Tawasi Club enjoyed the picturesque setting of the Houston Lake Country Club, as they held their annual luncheon there on Wednesday, June 12. Tables were attractively set up in the private dining area of the club, which overlooks the moss covered trees and lake. Jlach table featured an attractive centerpiece, portraying the eight different and unusual programs, participated in by each club member during the year. Mrs. Earl Marshall, 111 gave a poetic rendition recalling these programs, entitled “This Was Your Date With Tawasi”, after which members voted for their choice of the most outstanding among the eight programs. The September 1967 Moun taineer Party at Green’s Pond, was chosen the winner, and a silver charm inscribed “A Date to Remember”, was awarded to each of the September committee, composed of Mrs. Richard Ray, Mrs. Joe Vance, Mrs. Oliver Horne, Mrs. Earl Marshall, 111, and Mrs. Don Bartlett. In concluding the club’s busi ness for the 1967-68 year, Mrs. Richard Ray heard annual re ports from each committee chair man, and commended them for ♦ heir loyal work in the club dur Civitans to Stage Horse Show To Equip Midget Football Team The Perry Civitan Club, long interested in youth activities, is launching a new endeavor. This fall they will sponsor, organize, and equip a Midget Football League. This is quite an en deavor and calls for a large out lay of time, effort, and money. The Civitans are noted for their expenditure of time and talents, and generous contri butions to worthy causes. How ever, the price tag on an under taking of this size is considera ole so the Civitans began to cast about for assistance in a fund raising effort, and they did not have to look far. The members of the Perry Saddle and Harness Club, Inc. have contributed their efforts to charitable causes in the past, and once again the horses will be running for a worthy cause. There will be a Western Horse Show, the first weekend in August, at the Perry Saddle Club Arena, with the proceeds going to the Civitans to help finance the Midget Football League. The Civitans will be selling advance tickets to the show, so whether or not the date is in conflict with your vacation, Luncheon Given For Miss Abrams Mrs. Wilson Moody entertained at a lovely luncheon at Houston Lake Country Club Tuesday, honoring Miss Beverly Abrams, bride-elect of Kenny Bryant.
