Mrs John P Rohrbough Delights Grafton Womans Club
Mrs John P Rohrbough of Clarksburg presented an outstanding program for the Grafton Womans Club at the May Dinner at St Pauls Methodist church. The one act play The Valiant portrayed a condemned prisoner who hides his identity, while humorous monologues ranged from a sick neighbor caller to a tobacco chewer Southern character Mark Richards. The event featured other characterizations, plus a winning essay by Nola Louise Sway on Books Which Have Influenced Me and a club vote against compulsory health insurance and for $500 in government bonds to start a building fund. The club chorus closed with William Fisher’s original song Rhapsody of Night and other numbers.
