A Gala Affair Over 100 ushered in the New Year at Te^le Beth El with ex uberance. The party hosted by the newly reorganized Men’s Club was alive with the sound of music from Murray Rosen’s band. Allen Gordon served as M.C. during the presentation of the lovely door prizes which ranged from small kitchen appliances to luggage. The many chefs plied their culinary skills to such an extent that everyone was asking for the recipes for the delicious hot and cold hors d’oeuvres and the various dips served all evening. At midnight a sumptuous buf fet was served; this including whole turkeys carved by chef Bob Prior. The tables looked es pecially attractive and a special touch was the colorful printed handmade napkins created by Estelle Rosen. At midnight the fellowship hall rang out with the sounds of the noisemakers and the toasting with champagne.
