With the help of abstract murals, ingenious lighting and outstanding musical entertainment by local talents the evening became one of the most successful events of the year. Some one hundred and fifty young people enjoyed the music, the dancing and the film "Flowers on a One Way Street" Without adult supervision and with the complete responsibility of the evening with the young people, the evening provided high quality entertainment which was clearly appreciated by the crowd in attendance. The " Coffee House" is an indication of what can be done even in a small community when the opportunity is presented and some initiative is en- couraged. Other events such as this will be organ- | ized in the future and announced to the community . | WATER SAFETY - Continued from page 7 ...... with but not very safe.
