PORTLAND INQUIRER ·CLARK ,COUNTY NEWS Mrs. Josephine Hasbrook, music supervisor for the recreation aso– ciation, has resigned from her po– sition, Carl Gustafson, director of physical education and recreation, announced today. Joining the recreation staff a year ago, Mrs. Hasbrook succeeded Miss Irene Moore. She is well known in Vancouver for her many Victory Center shows, Kaiser Ship– yard programs, and the two Sat– urday morning Mayflower matinee stage shows which were under her direction weekly, one held at the Castle Theater and the other at the McLoughlin Heights ~ommunity center. She also organized the teen-age all girls' chorus, "The Singing Las– sies," the Bagley Downs Hasbro~k chorus named in her honor, and the McLoughlin Heights W o m e n ' s chorus. "Mrs. Hasbrook has been of splendid service to the community," Mrs. Gustafson said. "She gave un– selfishly of her time and talent, and will be greatly missed by the association." Ray Hamby, ~dio director for the group, will assume Mrs. Has– brook's duties in program produc– tion. ·J&: community center; recreation asso– ciation staff members announced today. An amateur boxing and wrestling show is scheduled for 8:15 p. m. Tuesday, December 12, and the price of admission will be 50c for the purchase of a gift for a con– valescent soldier or an actual gift. A percentage of the weekly profes– sional wrestling show on Wednes– day, December 20, will be used for purchase of the gifts. Suggested presents are toilet ar– ticles such as pocket combs, soap, lotions, and pocket-size books, sta– tionery, packed hard candy, etc. Tuesday's show will feature out– standing boxers and wrestlers from the Vancouver - Portland - Vanport City area, and special intermission numbers. ' The,32-piece sheriff's patrol band from Vanport City will play during the evening. Several Vancouver high school athletic stars now released from football season will make their first appearance since last summer. In– cluded are such favorites as Louis Wellman, Bob Golden and George Keith. Bill Tyree, popular Heights fight– er, will meet a Bagley Downs star fighter in the feature match of the desire for card club competition be– tween community centers. Julia adds that Center No. 6 is now open Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 7 to HJ each week for adults only, offering table games, ping pong, singing, and what have you. Re– freshments are delightful too. EAST VANPORT center, under Mary Cummings and Carmen Par– rish, tried to stump up with a handful of jawbreaking words. After wrestling with them too long, we finally got a firm grip on our waning sanity and decided that what one of their announcements means is that parents, male andjor female, now gather there at 8 p. m. on Mondays to discuss diet and physical training in their relation to emotional development and be– havior P!Oblems in children. Paul Campbell, director North Branch, Portland YMCA, will lead first in the series next Monday. If you want to know how greasy fried po– tatoes and insufficient wholesome exercise can make a bum of your Tommy, come along. And we'll lay you two to one you won't need )our dictionaxr to understand Paul as we did with Mary and Carmen's announcement. ·--- McLOUGHLIN HEIGHTS evening.
