replied on: 8/22/2005 3:48:13 PM and there's more! 20th FEBRUARY 1925 BENEFIT CONCERT A successful benefit concert was held at Heanor Liberal Club last Friday night for Heanor Town F.C. A capital musical programme was contributed to by Mr. Cecil Berle (entertainer), Mr. C. Woodhouse (violinist), Mr. H. Buxton (soloist), Mr. J. Bowles (----), Mr. E. W. Thorpe occupied the chair. During an interval Councillor Sharman announced that a movement was on foot to make a public testimonial by means of a concert to Mr. Cecil Berle, who had for over 30 years given his services voluntarily at the old folks teas, helped at nearly every concert during the war, and who had given his services freely on behalf of cricket and football clubs and the bands. He appealed for helpers, especially ladies. Mr. Thorpe (chairman) handed over to the football club £4. 3s. 6d. the result of a collection, Mt. T. Durose (chairman), of the club said they never forgot the football club originated from the Liberal Club, and they were pleased the club was willing to help. If all would help in a similar way the club’s finances would be in a better and healthier condition. Mr. Sidney Broughton presided at the piano. Jenny |
