from The Lowell Tribune, Sept. 28, 1950, page 10, column 4:
A party was held Saturday night at the pavillion in Ahlgrim's Park, honoring several of the local boys who are leaving for service with the armed forces. The guests were Sparky Hall, Dick Uhter, Ben Clemens, and Jim Guettner. Approximately 100 guests were present to bid the boys good bye, and following the dancing enjoyed by everyone, refreshments were served. Each of the honored guests received a parting gift.
