THE PIG CLUB – A smoking concert was held at The Wheatsheaf on New Year’s Day in aid of the Badsey Pig Club to help wipe off the debts owing to serious losses.  Mr E H Collett presided and upwards of a hundred members and friends spent a most enjoyable evening.  There was an excellent programme.  Mr E Ballard opened the proceedings with gramophone selections, and the Chairman asked the Secretary (Mr E Crisp) to give his report of the past season’s work.  The singing went with a swing until ten o’clock, when the national anthem brought a very pleasant evening to a close.  Mr Sharp accompanied at the piano.
