Scrabble Club

The Leisure World Scrabble Club had an eventful December. In addition to weekly meetings, there was a Christmas luncheon on Dec. 15, and the club scoring record was broken when Bob Ruderman posted a 510.

There were 36 scores above 300 and 13 bingos (i.e., the use of allseventilesinonemove).Diane Seeger led with nine scores above 300; her best was a 350. Ruderman was next, with seven scores higher than 300; he also recorded nine bingos. Suthy Chhoeuy had five 300-plus scores, two bingos and a top game of 390.

Larry Edgar, whose high score was 461, had four scores above 300 and one bingo. Others who scored above 300 were: Marilyn Moody (three times, with a high of 356), club president Maria Giegerich (two times, with a high of 326 and one bingo), Wanda Bemben (three times, with a high of 367), Sue Gass (two times, with a high of 312), and Sylvia Makus (one time, with 327).

The club meets Wednesdays at 1 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 5. New members are welcome.
