The Stockton-Lodi branch of the National League of American Pen Women recently chose officers for their next year. The luncheon gathering was held at the home of Janet Schultz, and was preceded by the group's annual musical program. Love songs and other songs from World War II were performed by Pianist/Singer, Gene Hanten and Soloist Jenny Medrano. Members were asked to come in 40s style. A field trip was taken afterwards to view a mural in the grooming salon at Sycamore Lane Kennels (at the end of Sargent Road), which was painted by June Sands, of Ripon.
