Marilyn and Richard Emmert are new property owners in Avalon. He’s a vice president with DuPont in Wilmington. While her husband is on a business trip to Tokyo, Mrs. Emmert is painting the inside of the new family residence. • • • Latest meeting of the Women’s Auxiliary of Stephen Ludlam Post was held Feb. 13. Members were all delighted at the progress being made by Commander Bob Wilson and his volunteer work fqrce at cleaning and painting the post. New draperies have been provided for the women's meeting room, adjacent rest room and powder room. The Auxiliary ’s next project is to curtain the main meeting room, which is still called the boat room by Legionnaires of long

We know we are getting older when we hear that Lydia Carboni Borek of Avalon, who once was a member of our children’s painting class as a little girl, is now the sophisticated mother of two boys and has just recently joined the staff of Century 21 Realty in Stone Harbor. biggesi4<*ws of the day in Stone Harbor is th£ : ' revitalization of the S.H. Seniors, largely due to efforts of new V.P. Scott Daniels and his wife, Alice, of 95th Street: Scott has contacted all past members, recruited new

people and swelled membership. The group still has its old get up and go motivation too. On Feb. 15 the 14th anniversary of the Seniors was held at a luncheon at Henny’s. Forty-three members showed up (remarkable when you consider the number of snowbirds) and everyone had so much fun it was voted at the Fun Night the same evening to repeat the day on March 28, same time, same place at noon. For reservations call Scott or Alice at 368-5043 - do this soon since reservations are limited and most snpwbirds will have rejoinedus by that time. The group is wonderfully clique-free and you can decide to go as a table for two or four or take pot-luck as we did and hit the jackpot. At a table for six we were invited to join Fred and Evelvn Treher of 87th Street, Betty Sibert, and Ted Owens, who arrived on crutches due to an unhappy but fortunately, not serious, fall. The Trehers are planning a visit to Germany this summer to renew acquaintance with the couple who stayed with them here last summer, Gerhard and Gertrude Hues of Bad Cainberg, Germany. Fred Treher was a winner of one of the three bottles of wine given as door prizes. IF YOU LIVE on this island and know Alexandra and John Kokonos and their offspring, you’re never at a loss for help. Alexandra has spent many hours studying for and continuing to sene the S. H. Rescue Squad. Legal eagle John commutes regularly to serve on the Zoning

Board, he gladly gives advice on ■iocal ordinances, and Grandmother Tberesa Socangelis has a comforting word on every occasion. We had to move heavy furniture last week and needed help. We called daughter, Mary Kokonos Ensknn iMrs Rick) of Avalon, and within seconds her brothers showed up. Speros, who lives here year-round and works for TMU Co., Inc. of Cape May as a machinist, the older, and Jimmy, a student at Malvern Prep who yvorks at Seashore Home Supply during the summer. These volunteer workers accomplished wonders. Only Heaven knows what they achieve as employes, but you can be darned sure Spike Fisber could also give you the score. Last week started with a highly successful auction conducted by the S.H. Garden Club. Auctioneer extraordinare, Mary (Mrs. Frank) Con well of 88th Street raised more than $65 to buy plants for the lush gardens the gals plant on Second Avenue from 80th to 111th Street. The total membership of 150 persons including eight men, works to support this project. A letter from R. Donald Wendorff, administrator of the S.H. School, was read by club prexy Ramona Wilson thanking members for supplying plants to beautify the school’s interior. The club also gives a tree to the school each year for its Arbor Day ceremony. On Saturday June 16 the club will be holding the Best Bloom’n Yard Sale at the American Legion Hall and a luncheon is being planned for shoppers

Cory’s a Survivor-

(From Page 1) Clark said of the new owner before Cory’s operation. CORY ARRIVED at the Dias Creek shelter early this month, un named, in a paper bag. Her hind leg was twisted, some of her paw pads were scraped off. some of her claws were ripped out, Clark explained. Hie woman who carried the paper bag into the shelter told its vice president. Marie Rhoades, that "somebody threw it into her yard," Clark said. Rhoades took the young injured cat to Dr. Robert Fitzgerald at Belloff Animal Hospital in Rio Grande. He x-rayed Cory and stitched some of her wounds* but also recommended the operation to correct her distorted leg. It wasn’t broken, the vet told Rhoades, but some of Cory's injuries, like the leg. were old ones. It looked to Fitzgerald as if Cory sufered the fresh cuts and scrapes by "being dragged by a vehicle, Clark said. She took the photograph of Cory and the prospect of an expensive operation to Bonnie Reina, Herald and Lantern general manager. She prepared the classified ad that drew such a positive response and dubbed its subject, Cory, short for Courageous. That seems appropriate to Cory’s new owner. “She's a survivor, as they say.” the Stone Harbor resident observed. "I kid you not. * you saw this cat you would flip out,' the woman added before Cory’s operation. "She raced up and down my stairs" despite her injuries “MY DOG ADOPTED her," the woman continued. The Laborador RetrieverGerman Shepherd combo, who was abandoned on her door step 10 years ago, helps Cory get around. "The dog feels that he’s the mother now.” Cory's new owner was apprehensive while awaiting word from Werner on the

success of the Feb. 10 operation. He confirmed Fitzgerald’s observation that Cory suffered “a pretty severe injury” in the past that didn’t heal properly. Scar tissue built up in the muscles of her hind leg and contorted it.sidewavs. During the operation, Werner also found fine suture in Cory’s paws. "The cat’s fine otherwise,” he saidfcfter operating to remove the scar tissue. “I don’t think there’s rfny real pain.” “It's horrible,” Cory’s owner said of the oid injuries left uncorrected. She prefers to consider the new wounds accidental. "It wasn’t cat or animal abuse,” she said. "I think it was an accident.” Accident or abuse, it’s hard to say in Cory’s case but AWS workers tend two or three battered animals a month, Claric confirmed. “We have them taken care of and try to find them a good home," she said. “It’s hard for anybody to do anything with the way the laws are today,” Claric added, referring to abused animals. "They don’t want to take care of people let alone animals." Cory is one of the lucky ones. “She’s very gutsy,” her owner concluded. "She’s a riot.” \
