Yachties' Ball
The Aurora Sailing Club's latest venture, a ball, was a huge success. The Stoke Memorial Hall had a real nautical air about it, the walls being festooned with nets and general sailing bric-a-brac, and the ceiling almost hidden by sails and buoys. The stage, centrepiece of the hall, was shown off by two yachts to lend a real yachting note to the festivities.
Don and Maureen Ingham, Gilbert and Christine Inkster, Syd and Marie Aydon, Tom Dorman, and Lorna and Jack Harris (jack's club president).
Getting their breath back we found Bobby Potts, Julie Bennett, Erna Harwood, and Jessie McQuade.
Carol King-Turner, Dave Carter and Frank Wilson had the party spirit
