Herry Gregory, native of Key ‘West but now an evangelist fgom Galt Lake City, Utah, will offi- @iate at the ceremony. Approximately 75 guests at- temfed the shower. The bride- to-be, attired in an aqua sport dress, was the recipient of many weeful and beautiful gifts, which were placed by guests in a re- eeptacie decorated with red, white and blue colored paper. The shower is believed to have set a precedent for similar affairs in Key West in that male relatives end friends were among the The Buckley home was decor- eted with fern, many beautiful @olors of gladioli and various feses. Military colors dominated im honor of the groom-to-be, who te @ member of the U.S. Navy at the base here. Program Presented A program was presented con- isting of vocal and instrumental fymbers, recitations and comical sketches. Miss Barbara Mae Buckley, cousin of the bride-to-! be, pianist, and Miss Becky Lou Gregory, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Gregory, marimba player, opened with a duet, “Mel- ody Of Love.” The Misses Buck- ley and Gregory also entertained with selections during the arrival of the guests. Mrs. Thomas Curtis gave a reading entitled “Common Sense” and Mrs. Claude Salis rendered @ solo at the piano. The Misses Buckley and Gregory also sang “Sweet Mystery Of Life”, accom- panied on the piano by Miss Gregory's mother. Marry Gregory amused the @uests with his comic impersona- tions. As the bride-to-be, assisted by her bridal attendants, unwrapped ‘the last gift, Waddell Pinder en- tered the scene bearing “surpris- es” and a stick of various colored balloons. While Miss Archer held the balloons, much to her embarrasssment, Pinder unveiled his “surprises” including a “Honeymoon Boat”, presented to the bride-to-be as a gift. Hand- made by Mr. Pinder, the boat was bedecked with flags and had as “passengers” a miniature bride and groom. He made a “hit” with his “Uncle Elmer”, a wood- em manikin, which he made to give the appearance of an experi- enced dancer manipulating arms, legg_and body in rhythm to an accompanying song. Seated in the middle of the room, he per- formed his act with a woman’s hat slapped to one side of his head. ’ To top the evening’s entertain- ment, a guest, who became “vio- tently ill” from “overeating”, was Worked on by Dr. Waddel Pinder, MD.X.Y.Z. responding to a call to learn “Is there a doctor im the house?” Dr. Pinder made @ qauick examination of the pa- tient, now prostrate upon the floor, and decided he could ad- minister relief on the spot. With- drawing a “stomach pump” from his bag he set to work to rid the patient of the cause of his dis- comfort. Thrusting the hose un- der the patient's shirt, Dr. Pinder vigorously manipulated the han- dle of the pump. The patient's “stomach” swelled to an enormous size until the balloon burst. Im- mediately the patient arose to his feet, proclaiming he “felt like a new man.” Dainty sandwiches cut into va- rious shapes, cake and fruit punch were served, preceded by a prayer by Evangelist Gregory. Salted peanuts and mints were ed among the guests during ening. Prizes were won by Mrs. Leo — and Miss Bertie Lou Out-of-town guests included Mr. and Mrs. Harry Gregory and daughter, Becky Lou, of Salt Lake City, Utah; Miss Temple, Philadelphia, and Mrs. Thomas Curtis, As Was Habits The case was one of assault. The magistrate eyed the prisoner sternly. . “You, maintain that you threw your wife out of the second-story window through forgetfulness?” he demanded. - “That's right,” returned the prisoner. “‘We used to live on the ground floor, and I forgot we’d moved upstairs,” Theater Group made its debut be- fore an appreciative audience in ter last night. The Group’s first production of the season, “Best Smile Forward”, was dedicated to the men at Boca Chica and es- pecially to the newly-arrived squadrons, Asdevron, Night Dev- ron and Safron, and to the Ma- rines on their 171st anniversary.
