Mordoff "Mystery Box" Auction. Two boxes of trash container liners were auctioned with much zeal. The first box was sold to Dr. Chatfield for $7.00. And a minute later the second box was sold to Anita White for $10.00. Is that inflation or what?

Fines:

1. Former Covina Fire Chief Carl Johnson had much to celebrate. A wedding anniversary in January, a birthday in February, and a new truck in March. All three kudos, plus the Club singing the "Happy Birthday" song cost $50.00!

Drawing: Lucky Tom Palmeri had the winning ticket; but did not draw the Ace of Spades!

Program: President-elect Anita White introduced Barbara Benedict and Gina Picarella from the Magan Medical Center of Covina. Barbara spoke on the NEW and IMPROVED Magan Clinic. New doctors have recently joined their staff to treat and counsel their patients about flu shots, diabetes, and cosmetics with lasers and many other new topics. They have begun using "paperless" electronic medical records, thus reducing the need to store paper records. Digital radiographs have made viewing and diagnosis almost immediate, as testified by McAlpin's recent visit to Magan! Very good program! Thanks Anita.
