Seattle Yacht Group Visits At
Grapeview Over MemoriaJ Weekend
GRAPEVIEW---Beautiful yachts ]
cruising into Fair Harbor and its
sin;rounding ,waters, added a touch
of color and excitement to an oth-
erwise gray and, for the most
part, colorless lioliday weekend.
Four lovely yachts out of Seat-
tle made a pretty picture nestled
together off the southern shore of
Treasure Friday and Saturday.
Well-known architect, Mr. and
Mrs. Ed Monk were aboard their
forty-six foot "T at o o s h" with
guests Mr. and Mrs. Keith Rob-
iscn. The other three vessels, all
designed by Mr. Monk, were the
beautiful "Terema" on its maiden
voyage with owner, Dr. and Mrs
William Pigott, on board. JThe
other two craft in the group were
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Enslow's
"Victory" and Mr. and Mrs. Ed
Rileys' cruiser, sister ship of the
"Tatoosh". Guests were Mr: and
Mrs. W. J. Acheson. A visit to
the St. Charles Winery was a high
mint of their stay here.
Indifferent weather did nothing
:o dampen spirits of 150 irrepres-
sible teenagers who gathered at
the "Hash House" on Memorial
Day. Miss Carolyn Hash was hos-
tess for the group, all graduating
rom Wilson High School in Ta-
coma. Part-time popular resident
Denny Moore was one of the
guests.
PLANS, LAID WELL IN. ad-
vance for a combined family pic-
nic on Harstine Island last Sun-
day had to be changed when the
rain clouds rolled in but Russ and
Ruth Wells rolled out the red car-
pet at their Stretch Island home
and saved the day for the four
amilies involved. The Don Pog-
:ebas and youngsters, Clem Hells,
Don Quereys and five children and
..d Okoneks and son all made the
best of the highly satisfactory
mbstitute
Last Wednesday evening was a
memorable one for four of our
aommunity'g young people. It was
the night of North Mason' High
School's Commencement Exercises
and they were in its graduating
.*lass. Robert Spooner, Bob Pelan,
xnd Edanna and Diana Strickland
all received their sheepskins in the
impressive ceremonies. Our con-
gratulations and best wishes.

fourteen foot blue runabout, which
they launched last Tuesday even-•
ing.
Visitors from sunny California
enjoyed the warm hospitality ot
their hosts, Mr. and Mrs. A1 Rich-
ards, if not the warmth of our
reluctant sun from Saturday untit
Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mar:
tin drove up from their home in
El Cerrito, stopping to view the
Grand Coulee Dam before driving
on to Canada and finally to Grape-
view. Mrs: Martin and Mrs. Rich-
ards are long-time friends from
North Dakota and thoroughly en-
joyed their reunion, the first since
August when the Martins were
last in our area.

Grange won second Place in the Grange
Bunyan Parade.
HIGH-MAN--Swante Kyllonen
always puts on one of the most
suspenseful performances of the
Loggers show with his demon-
stration of old-time springboard
tree-climbing. Here he has just
dropped the top out of his tree
ater making his torturous and
breath'taking climb from the
ground on the springboards.
Past 70 years, Swante has a
remarkable sense of balance,
works without safety equipment
of any kind.
