Tent No. 19, Baltimore Evidently delayed by the storms, snow, sleet, these additional observations on the recent Variety Club dinner-dance are furnished by Pony Express Rider JAMES MERIWETHER ("Little Jacques”) SHELLMAN: The excellent program arranged by SPAULDING ALBERT and his committee was very beautiful. DAN FEDDER worked overtime. BILL HICKS had a staff of fine looking gentlemen in uniforms as genial hosts. MRS. HARRY P. BALL, mother of MRS. LEON BACK, came all the way from Los Angeles for a visit and was the guest of her daughter and son-in-law. Mayoralty prospect opposite HOWARD W. JACKSON, HOWARD E. CROOK and his wife, were present. LOU ROME and FRANK DURKEE were the happiest of men. JOE GRANT’S selection of the menu was equal to the tastes of the famous Rector. ELMER NOLTE and his staff worked with zest to get those 3 0 pages of advertising. O. D. "NICK” WEEMS surely is a grand person to have so faithfully attended to things. EDDIE KIMPLE, JR., arranged for reservations with utmost in efficiency. Members from Washingon, including ABE LICHTMAN, JACK BERESIN, Philly, enjoyed everything. Credits, and many, should go to BILL SAXTON, I. M. RAPPAPORT, BARNEY SEAMAN, TED ROUTSON, MILTON MANN, FRED SCHMUFF for the entertainment. Proceeds will go, in part, toward the purchase of a portable sound and projection apparatus for the purpose of presenting shows to local institutions. February 8, 19)9
