If you want to get your week off to a good start try a Monday mornfhg brunch at the S.H. Women's Club. We sat at a great(table with Marie Spence. Aha. Alien. Alice Daniel. Ida Aulenbach. Rose Springer. Thelma Grover. Ad die Young and Lydia Battendieri. The officers of the club served as kitchen staff that day anu started us off with Bloody Mary's. We had fresh fruit cup. toast and marmalade, sausage , and fried potatoes and topped it off with Danish — what a bargain; meal that was!
e Sallie Ruth Mact'orkell i- gave a book review on the e new biography of Margaret :f Mitchell, author of Gone f With The Wind. The new e biography is The Road to ;t Tara. by Ann Edwards, e Sallie Ruth really makes a i- book come alive for you - when she reviews/it. t The similarities between the lives of Margaret Mitchell and her fictional heroine are too frequent just to be coincidental. The book was published in the heart of the depression and cost $3. a great deal for a book in those days, yet 178,000 copies were sold in three weeks. IT HAS BEEN published in 16 foreign countries and still 100.000 hard-cover copies and 250.000 paperbacks are sold in this country each year. We'intend to get a copy of The Road to Tara or put our name on the list for it at the library immediately. A business meeting followed the review and the members learned some distressing news. The March 29 storm damaged the parking lot to the tune of about $8,500 Plans have been made for the summer schedule starting with the j Antique Show on July 9. 10 \ and llth; Salad Luncheon ■ on July 17; Coronation of Little Miss Stone Harbor at the school July 20; and the Fashion Show July 31. - Last Sunday was a very fspecial day for St. Mary's •Episcopal Church. We were visited by the new Suffragan Bishop, the Rt Rev Vincent K. Pettit, and his lovely wile. Virginia. The Pettits were celebrating their 34th wed ding anniversary The Bishop delivered the sermon and commenced by saying that some churches were very close to his heart and St. Mary's was one of them because his father was the re^or for the first 10 summers of his life and it was at St Mary's By The Sea. as it was then called, that Bishop Pettit first served as an acolyte The congregation got to greet their visitors at the follow ing coffee hour and the wives of the 'Vestrymen gave a luncheon in their honor after that THE SEA MONS Benefit Cocktail Party for the Helen L Diller Vacation Home for the Blind was bursting at the seams as always on June lfi This year it wasiiet up so that guests could take their drinks a n^f plates lull of gorgeous focfrfoutside and enjoy the breezes but the weatherman got cute again and it actually got too cold so we all crowded our wav into the Seven Mile Beach's pro u d e s I accomplishment Those wh« hadn't been there before <and there £ were very few i took the l tour of the remarkable It facility and were M fascinated to see the oppor- F tunity it affords disabled J children S The basket of cheer. jL which is always unusuaJ. M was exceptionally clever F this year. It was a heavily- i laden child's wicker sleigh. $ It was won by Jeannettc b O'May. who had left by the f| time the drawing took F place. Her ticket was sign- X
ed just J. O'May and the sponsors were asking if anyone knew a Joe O'May? We said "bet that's Jeannette O'May" and the gal who. came with her affirmed our guess — couldn't have happened to a nicer gal. We saw Becky and Russ Bailey as we got there and went right out 'to chat with them and their charming friends Marion and Jack Dunlap of 31st Street in Avalon. It was another small world night, since before the Dunlaps retired down here they lived just a stone's throw from where this reporter grew up in Blue Bell. Pa. The most excited man at the party was unquestionably Billy Diller. He grabbed our sleeve and fairly shouted "Look at this! Did you ever see anything so wonderful?" It was a check for $7,500 which had been presented to him by the Sea Lions for the use of the Home Another wonderful party for a wonderful cause. Thelnia and Edwin Yaeger of 8800 2nd Ave. are cruise directors without peer They're all enthused about the latest one they've planned It leaves Jan 8. '85 from Los Angeles on the newest and. Thelma thinks, most luxurious ship of the Sitmar Line, the Fair sky. From L A. it will follow the Western side of the Mexican Riviera and make five ports of call: Cabo San Lucas. Mazatlan. Puerto Vallarto, Zihuatanejo and Acapulco. Price of the cruise includes airfare to the West Coast and return It's what Sitmar calls its once-a vear value cruise and on this one there will be a 25 percent
reduction on regulare fares since it's off-peak travel time in California. There are also options like a three-day or week's stay over in Los Angeles So far we know eight people going from Stone Harbor and having seen illustrations of the huge staterooms with infinite closet space we are burn ing with envy. Reservations must be in by July l. so call Thelma or Ed at 368-2 3 63 for more information. WE WERE ashamed to admit to a friend of ours, one of those suave sophisticates, that we had never tried Teresa Martin's restaurant at 330 96th St. It's small, attractively decorated, expensively appointed, service is im mediate and the food im aginative and superbly prepared. There were two specialties the night we went, veal with peaches and brandy and coquille St. Jacques. We gave each (Page 17 Please) THERE'S GOLD IN THAT OLD SOLA!
