Call to Dance – 1948

Submitted by: Downhome
1710 Views | 4 Likes

A Mr. R. Morris of Mount Pearl was the owner of the Hall where we held the dance; it was a converted barn with a jukebox and a small store where a thick bologna sandwich sold for .10 cents.
As you can see, transportation was from St. John's to Mount Pearl and back; the bus driver was George Boggan.
A lot of happy memories and people from the past; here are a few names:

Joyce Auchinleck, Rita Moore, Olive Clark, Madge Harris, Winnie Windsor, the Squire sisters, Edna Little, Ches Parsons, Roy Janes, Lou Murphy, Duby Jamieson, Ches Lester, George Hatcher and many more.
