The 2nd Annual Arthur L. Loeb Cup Bridge Tournament was held at the Neighborhood House on September 25th.

James, the Tournament was directed by Cordelia Menges who, with Kathy Fallenius of the Cavendish Bridge Club who donated her time, ran three full sections of duplicate bridge. Judi Radin, Tournament Co-Chair and world renown Professional bridge player, and other members of the Benefit Committee organized a remarkable team of bridge professionals to participate in the benefit. The bridge professionals also generously donated their time and good cheer to ensure an exciting morning of duplicate bridge.
