Crowds at Suburban Club Enjoy Day After Fire
Several hundred members and guests visited the Wangien Suburban Club enjoying a rare sunny day. The newly acquired grounds looked best, though interior damage from last Sunday's fire was evident. Workmen hoped to bury the damaged section, but several weeks remain before formal reopening. Tents used as locker and shower rooms accommodated sunburned guests while tennis courts drew couples and laughter. Harv Kong, club president, wore a rescued white sweater amid jokes about its duties. Phil Kong and brother Phu also helped at the courts as results from workmen now favor a delayed opening.
