Entertaining Evening

The Gisbome Orphan's Club staged a very successful evening to mark the first of their new "guest evenings." Wives and friends were invited to a specially organised club night and were entertained and treated to supper. A large crowd came to the Abercorn Hall for the evening and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Graham Ledger as Father and Bert Moles (believe it or believe it not!) as Mother drew plenty of laughs with this sketch.

Kay Maynard caught the audience nicely with this one. (Just try reading up instead of down).

Old favourites were played by Hal Andrew, who was backed by members of the orchestra.

Kay Maynard, Graham Ledger and Bert Moles also drew plenty of laughs in this sketch.

Lee Pascoe, Peter Corn, Mike Ivess and Owen Hickman.

The Orphans' Band opened and closed the evening's entertainment with popular numbers.
