City Throws Out Welcome Mat For Ed Sanderses, Former Residents
Social St
rene
By RICHARD C. HENDERSON ’
The city really threw out an enthusiastic welcome-back-home mat for Mr. and Mrs. Ed Sanders. Pasadena, Calif., former residents here, who were guests of his sister, Mrs. Creola Sanders Courtney, for about three weeks. The Sanderses, residents of California since 1923, are very well known here. For years he was a leading manufacturer of lamp shades here, operating stores at two down-
town locations and later on In-
diana avenue. Himself an active Mason, he is also known for having made the first fezzes worn by the Shriners and Daughters of
Isis.
In addition to being one of the first local Masons, Mr. Sandenwas also a pillar of Bethel AME Church and was one of the Seven Boosters cluh. an early affiliate with the Phyllis Wheatley Branch YWCA. t ' While here the Sanderses celebrated their 47th anniversary at what w r as the biggest affair given for them, a big reception given by the FAC at the club home Saturday night. The Sanderses had endeared themselves to the FAC Travelers when .the group passed through Pasadena on one of their ‘ educatior al tours.” and the reception was no doubt a gesture of appreciation. The visitors were taken on sightseeing and visiting trips by Mes dames Flora Winton. Blanche Horner. Joe Drennan. K. L. Brokenburr. E. R. Battles, and Arthur Sanders. Miss Sayde Mays. Dr Joseph H. Ward, Rev. J. F. Johnson. and Alex Matthews. Among the o'her numerous entainments were the beautiful garden party given by Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Cannon and breakfasts, luncheons, and dinners given by Rev. and Mrs. J. F. Johnson. Messrs, and Mesdames Louis G. Hill. Howard Enix. Ben Johnson. Arthur Sanders, Jack Gordon Hayes Bransford, and Edward Harris, and Mesdames Maude Wilson. Flora Ciossen, Margaret Smith, and Celia Simon. Tokens and gifts included oi • chids and other flowers sent by Drs. and Mesdames L. A. Lewis and J. H. Ward, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil R. Powell, and Mesdames Maude Shelton and Maude Wilson. Other gifts were from Mrs Blanche Clements, the Misses Susie Martin and Sadye Mays, Wal lace Wolfolk. and guests at Mrs. Margaret Smith's party. Other friends sending anniversary gifts included Dr. and Mrs H. L. Hummons. Messrs, and Mesdames Robert Hatch. Clarence Baxter. Louis G. Hill, and Ernest R Battles, Mesdames Maude Gillard Blanche Horner. Gertrude Hicks, Maude Connolley. Ethel Bannister, and Gladys HarHs, and Dr. C. N. Harris. After a busy three weeks, the couple left here Monday for their home in Pasadena, where they will probably continue giving out with the type of hospitality which makes everyone passing through stop at their house. Zeta Phi chapter of Omega Psi Pnl fraternity held its third annual at Fox Lake last week. Charles Harry, chairman of the picnic committee on arrange-
ments. was ably assisted by W. T. Wilhite, T. Pace, and Cary D. Jacobs. Members, their families and guests totaled around fifty people »t the barbecue picnic on Sunday, neld on the island at the resort. The guests also enjoyed visiting and fellowship in the Jacobs Harry, Wilhite, and Hinton co.tages. Sw'imming, boating, ball games, ana stunts were featured. The Wyleaway bridge club members and ther wives will enjoy this week-end at the resort I understand that Mrs. George Dixon, chairman of the game night held each Tuesday, has more than exceeded all expectations. Everyone plays games of some sort, joining in the fun. Prizes are given, and the interest is keen. There are always games for the children, who. my informant says, always forget when its time for .he Sandman. Mrs. Leroy Rambo has returned from Michigan af.er spending two weeks with her husband, who i* there for the summer. . . M's. T. C.

From C. F. Allen, chairman o' the 1952 Dukes national conven- j tion to be held al Fox Lake nex week-end, comes an invitation to j attend the convention It looks as if it might be fun.
ENTERTAINS CALIFORNIANS: A highlight of the visit of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Sanders, Pasadena, Calif., here was the reunion of three members of the Seven Boosters club which was affiliated with the Phyllis Wheatley Branch of the YWCA many years. The surviving three members, William F. Cannon, Ed Sanders, and Hayes E. Bransford, met and dined in the hom^ of the Bransfords, 365 West 28th street, last Sunday afternoon. Guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. Sanders, who were spending their vacation and 47th wedding anniversary here. Other guests who shared in the honor of the occasion were Mrs. Creola Courtney, sister of Mr. Sanders, and Messrs, and Mesdames Thomas Higgins, Louis Bennett, Richard A. Lewis, and William F. Cannon. A three-course turkey dinner was attractively served. Mr. and Mrs. Bransford were assisted by Mr. and Mrs. David Holt and Mesdames Henry Howard and Waneta Morris.
