Anna's Pool Party
July 4th 1961
From the grounds of the Wellington guesthouse pool the crowd was
a bit subsided in the summer of 61. It's been said that Anna had a bit much too
fun too early and "slept" through a number of the pool activities this
particular year.
Here's Anna laughing it up at the poolside
Here's Stella,
perky and ready for some fun..
Stella wet
n wild later in the day....
Elena Ray joined the group for a brief time in 1961 and was a
good actress yet despite her skills she ended up being a model and pin up girl
in various men's magazines during the 60's
Here's the lovely and quite busty Vivian Arnell getting a lift
from fellow theater actor Paul Hendon....
Here we peek in on some in pool gathering between theater actors
Micheal Bonneker and Mary Strat..
Im not sure if Linda Clay is being eased in or out of the pool
but she certainly made quite a splash at the 61 pool party...
Though it wasnt' a crowded party, it was still a fun party.
Playing games is Micheal Bonneker and Linda Clay to the left; and James Corey
with Mary Strat on the right. Linda and Mary has become all the rave at the pool party and it was said in particular Anna wasnt too happy with Mr Corey's conduct, but it does look like he was having fun.
In the distant background of the photo is Elena Ray and Beverly Schuyler.
Here's
Linda Clay splashing around again,, this time with Richard Cottington; the
estates CEO, as the splash mate...
Here we see
Mr. Cottingtons wife, Vickie Cottington, an attractive woman in her own
right...
Laura Burns returned to the pool party in 1961 and shown here in splendid form also enjoyed by fellow theater actor Ken Stams..
Here's Theresa Ruddy taking to the pool also with the help of the opportunistic Ken Stams. Theresa had become a big draw over the past 2 seasons but clashed with many of the regulars at the time and by years end she was fired by Vivian.
