This Day in History: 1936-11-07
John Binko was the Chairman of the Citizen’s Club Masquerade Ball held in the Mahwah School Hall (Commodore Perry School). Prizes were awarded to the prettiest and to the most imaginative costumes. A local winner for the funniest dress was Marcel Kownacki who was dressed as an old grandmother. Polish, Slavish, Russian and American jazz music gave everyone a chance to enjoy the evening. (Bristow)
