Cotton Ball at Roswell Woman's Club dazzles with blue glow
Roswell's Fifth annual Cotton Ball drew about 150 couples to the Woman's Club Saturday night. A canopy and gates framed the foyer, blue balloons lit the ballroom, and salt cedar garlands crowned the stage as Jimmy Durant and his orchestra played. Prizes for best dressed and best dancers were awarded at eleven, with many hosted by local merchants. A cooperative concert banquet followed, with dozens of workers named for tonight's event and a membership drive kicking off at the chamber. The issue also notes Miss Lucille Morriss's engagement to Fred Croom announced at a tea, along with other social gatherings and honors surrounding Cotton Ball weekend.

WPA Workers Protests Over Lambing Season Jobs
About 100 WPA workers were dropped to let men take sheep company jobs during lambing season. Haray Mundell, WPA zone engineer, confirmed the dismissals but said workers could return after private work ends. Protests were sent to New Mexico's congressional delegation. Workers say private jobs last 20 to 25 days with pay between 15 and 25 dollars a month and require six months to re qualify on WPA rolls. Mundell noted several sheep companies offered private work and that WPA policy allows layoff if private employment offers a decent salary.
