British Legion. Probably the most successful whist drive held in the village was that on Friday last under the auspices of the Castlethorpe branch of the British Legion at their headquarters, the Carrington Hall. The accommodation was not sufficient for all who wished t take part and the 56 players who were privileged, spent an enjoyable evening. Pleasant and keen games were played and the winners were: Ladies, 1 Miss E. Burbidge, 2 Mrs. Faulkner; gentlemen, 1 Mr. J. Cowley, Mr. R. Holt; booby prizes, Miss Amos and Mr. C. Harding; mystery prizes, Mrs. F. Dolling, and Mr. Jeffs. Mr. A. Masterman ably carried out the duties of the M.C. Thanks are due to Mrs. A. Markham, Mr. J. E. Gobbey, and Mrs. Gibbons for the generous gifts of prizes. During the evening refreshments were nicely served by Miss E. Burbidge, Mrs. Wingrave, and Mrs. Gibbons.
