Donna Harris spent a week in
Shelton Hospital undergoing tests
for a possible heart condition.
This is the second attack she has
had this year. Donna's
sister-in-law came and stayed with
the children while she was in the
hospital. Neighbors Mr. and Mrs.
Tom Aarhus have been like real
parents to Donna, they have been
taking such good care of Donna
and the children since she came
home. They have even postponed
their trip until Donna improves.
Get well soon, Donna.
The Richard Wood family on
Benson Lake, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Earl Wood, are facing a long
winter of discomfort if housing
for Mom, Dad and their 5 little
boys isn't found soon. There are
9, including grandma and
grandpa, sharing the Wood's small
home on Benson Lake now, one
bedroom and 1 bath are all.
Richard is a retired serviceman
and he just returned from
Vietnam and is trying to find a
low income rental in the
Grapeview School District. If you
hear of any prospects for them,
please call the above number.
The ladies of the MBC who
have been working every Monday
making Christmas decorations for
the Bazaar would appreciate your
contributions of old jewelry,
yardage, etc., or ideas. Come
Mondays at 1 0 a.m. and bring any
or all of the above.
Mark Moore saw a
Neuro-surgeon in Seattle after
being hit in the face with a tow
chain and discovered the bone in
one side of his face was
competely shattered. He spent
four hours in surgery; plastic
surgery was used to repair the
bone structure too. He is back in
school now, and feeling better, his
mother reports.
Halloween was ushered in by
the children and adults at Mason
Lake. The children attended a
Halloween party at the Grapeview
Fire Hall sponsored by the
Mothers Club and the adults
celebrated at the MBC. Not too
many were in costumes this year,
not nearly as much fun to watch
as last year. Mr. and Mrs. Berliner
won 1 st prize. He had bib
overhalls on and a big red heart
patch on his rear! Mrs. Berliner
said she was sending him to the
Virgin Islands for re-cycling!!!
They really were great. Sven
Gunnarson, as a judge, was very
diplomatic as he called 2nd and
3rd place a tie and awarded a case
each of refreshments to the Don
Welches and Pete Petersons.
(You'd never have recognized the
Welchs.) It was a lot of fun, as all
the parties are with this swell
bunch of Lakers. The spaghetti
dinner at midnight was
exceptionally good, thanks to all
the hard-working gals.
Pete spent all day last
Wednesday trying to get Mark on
a plane East. They spent from 9
a.m.-I 1:30 at McChord Air Force
Base trying for a Military flight,
but he was bumped by a Col.
Then on to Sea Tac where he
waited for a Military Standby
flight but at 1 p.m. gave up and
decided to wait for the 12:30
a.m. Thursday flight by 747,
which they promised would be a
cinch. Pete turned over the
waiting to Mark's girl friend and
returned home. All this in the
worst rain and wind of the week.
Thursday evening he called home
from R I. He had reached there at

three o'clock in the afternoon,
after stops in Chicago and
Cleveland. It didn't really dawn
on me he was so far from home
already until• about the middle of
the conversation, then I realized,
he was over 3,000 miles away. I'm
thankful he wasn't enroute to
Vietnam though.
Russ Denny received his
orders to report for his basic
training in Texas with the Air
Force, He will leave November
12th. Good luck, Russ.
Remember the MBC night at
the Club house this Saturday.
Bring your friends and relatives.
The prospective owners of
Mendenhall's Marina are still not
ready to make an official
statement. Final papers are not
signed and it takes a couple of
weeks to get the beer license
confirmed. I think everyone
around here has been told
unofficially, though. Well, that's
the way scoops are scooped 1
guess! Better Luck next time.
Alice Jean Mendenhall
stopped by last Saturday to say
the papers are all in order and the
Marina is definitely sold. She is
about through moving out of the
Marina and their cabin. We are
really going to miss the
Mendenhall family as operators of
the Marina as well as friends.
They gave so much of themselves
to the community.
Bill is attending the University
in Leningrad and his letters are
most interesting. He shares an
apartment with four Russian boys
and one American boy. He says
the Russian people are wonderful,
so friendly and warm. All mail is
censored and any packages are
confiscated that come from the
United States though even some
postcards of Seattle that Alice Jean
sent, were never delivered.
Bill will return in the Spring
and possibly the Mendenhalls wilt
meet him in New York. What a
family of boys to be proud of.
Certainly an example to all.
Jack and Donna Harris moved
last weekend to their new home
at Paradise Estates. Glad to have
them as neighbors. Get well soon
Donna so you can teach me to
play tennis next spring.
