HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
MARK YOUR CALENDAR NOW for Saturday, June 12. Twelve years ago, in July, 1964, our first benefit party for the library was offered at 615 24th Pl., then the home of Myron and Pat Gazin.
This year's Libations for the Library will be hosted by Ray and Marie Waters....of 615 24th Place! A three dollar donation will bring you two libations not to mention beautiful munchies.
Continuous entertainment...come prepared to chat with old and new friends, discuss books, the weather, the library, and election results. Party chairman is Willa Rogers, FR29475.
YOUR DONATIONS to Friends of the Library provided the wherewithal for prizes for our ELEVENTH ANNUAL writing contest. First place winners, each of whom received a $10 book certificate are: Raini Payne, Pat Espinoza, Brian Visser, Richard Jacobs, Erin Tyson. Roberta Moore did a smashing job as contest chairman.
YOU ARE ENJOYING of course, the Friends of the Library bicentennial displays at the library case. Collections loaned thus far have come from Carolyn Williams, Ruth Duncan, Carol Tanner, Pat Gazin, Lorraine Hales. Future loans are booked from Edith Corder, Delma Peery and Martin DeMott.

READY WHEN YOU ARE...to accept checks for membership. Make yours payable to Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library (still a bargain, only a dollar) drop at the library or mail to Mme. Belasco as mentioned above
LOOK TO THE FUTURE. Our librarian Shari Petresky, says gifts which will be heartily welcome at the library include: jigsaw puzzles for lending, comic books, mobiles, games like Monopoly (to be used IN the library by children of browsing parents.) She would also like to build a collection of high school annuals. Great idea. Share yours with the world!
Latest addition to the California Collection, reports chairman Betty Evans, is CALIFORNIA COAST from documents from the Sutro collection. Available at the library about June 1.
