Second prize at the amateur night o the Community Club in Suffern, was won by a Mahwah man, Gordon O’Brien.  He won warm applause from the large audience for his ballad singing.  The other prizes went to Suffern residents, Antoinette Kaufman, won third for her piano playing, and first prize was awarded to James Stoner of Suffern who used hats as a vehicle for impersonating famous people.  A large crowd from Mahwah attended the snow and enjoyed the dance which followed.
