These next three days are going to be busy ones for the Norwood Debonnaires as they continue their drive to get to Chicago. Tomorrow is the deadline for tickets, all girls are urged to get their tickets in early.

On Saturday morning the Debs will have a car wash at the Elks parking lot beginning at 9 a. m. Free coffee and doughnuts will be served to customers while the girls wash down and shine, up the cars.

That night the Debs will give an exhibition at the Norwood Arena, then go through the stands to collect money for their trip.

Three of the Debs were recently winners of awards, Mary Ellen Doyle, Bobbie Winn, and Paula O‘Hearn.
