a a a a a a Sec. Three THE BATTLE CREEK ENQUIRER AND NEWS Sunday, August 1, 1965 In the Social Whirl Goings and Comings (Continued from Page One) permitted to take guests, but only by reservation, and these cannot be canceled after Aug. 12. FROM LA JOLLA, Lyle and Roberta Erb send word to Battle Creek friends of the marriage of her daughter, Candy Dean, to Bill Davis from Crow's Landing, on June 26. The newlyweds are at home in Shell Beach and will continue their studies at California State Polytechnic College this fall.

THE GALA VENETIAN Festival yesterday at Saugatuck, sponsored by the Singapore Yacht Club, the Saugatuck Yacht Club and The Gondoliers, was a credit to all the advance preparation by Battle Creek's Lyle Anderson, John Dykstra Jr. of Grand Rapids and others. The varied program took place in the air and on land, as well as in the water, and many Battle Creek boating enthusiasts were on hand for the fun. The spectacular opening at noon was a fly-over of Michigan Air National Guard jets, followed by an afternoon of sailboat races by skippers 10-yearsold and less; a parade of old cars by the Kalamazoo Antique Auto Restorers; an open-air art show headed by the Summer School of Painting; safety exhibits and displays; open house on the Lake Michigan trawler, Capitol, and dozens of other activities, with a thrilling exhibition at dusk of the sky-divers of Pinkie Jones' Jungle Inn Sports Diving Club of St. Joseph, with Kalamazoo Lake as the target.

The main attraction, of course, was the colorfully lighted Venetian parade of decorated boats which started at 9 o'clock and ended near midnight with a dazzling display of fireworks. OFF FOR A TWO-DAY buying trip to Chicago, tomorrow, are four members of the Community Hospital Auxiliary's Gift Shop staff. Mary Louise Whalen, Ginny Hawk, Nadine Gifford, and Julie Purring will be buying Christmas gifts for the annual "early bird" sale in November.

Gertrude and Vern Scanlan, Mary and Tobey Mason, Al and Myron Mitchell, Toots and Don Kriner and Lennie and Frank Taylor.

It wasn't quite so phenomenal when they learned that the last five couples named were making a two-week tour of the West together by train with stops at Glacier and Jasper National Parks as well. All of them braved the scarylooking but breathtakingly scenic sky-tram ride up to top of Sulphur Mountain (alt. 7.487 the, ft.) And wouldn't you know that would be the one day it rained! LITTLE CURRENT. Killarney and Meldrum Bay were Canadian ports-of-call and points of interest on a 500-mile boat trip braved by Katherine and Norm Craven, Helen and Alby Allen and Mary Ann and Fred Brydges.
