COMMENTS
Right now it' s hard for us North-
siders to know just how to go to
Hyannis, what with the telephone
company digging up Hyannis Road
to install underground cables and
contractors digging up Yarmouth
Road for a resurfacing job.

AMONG THE GRADUATES
A mortar board and congratula-
tions go this week to Mrs. Sydney
Knott Jr. of Barnstable who on
June 16 received her certificate of
completion following a short exam
in the Citco Class For Women Dri-
vers. The 7-week course was held
Wednesdays from 7:30 to 9:30 at
(he station on Bearses Way in Hy-
annis and taught the 20 ladles in
the class just what does tick un-
der the hood of their vehicles.
IN THE SERVICE
Navy Petty Officer Third Class

Mrs . Richard C. Emrich of Oak
St., West Barnstable, has return-
ed to his homeport of Long Beach,
Calif., aboard the guided missile
frigate USS Gridley after a six-
month deployment with the U.S.
Seventh Fleet in the Western Pa-
cific.
Enroute home, his ship visited

Harbor.
COBB HOUSE GALLERY
Combining their artistic talents ,
Dorothy and Matthew Cobb did
exactly what was predicted—they
came up with something unique ,
exciting and quite lovely—their
new gallery at Cobb House in
Barnstable Village.
Essentially a rotunda type con-
struction , the high domed ceiling
of the main gallery provides ex-
cellent lighting for the works of
art in various media featured
there. A fieldstone fountain high-
lights one side of the room , and
the outer gallery is contrived to
make the most of the afternoon
light and prevailing breeze with
its louvered windows.
A gay, yellow cart brimming
with colorful plants greets the
visitor in the little fenced in court-
yard from where there are en-
trances to both the shop and gal-
lery.
Everything is light and color
and done in the imaginative style
of the Cobb House proprietors.
At Saturday 's preview opening,
we heard over and over again that
"Dorothy and Matthew should be
proud indeed and that Barnstable
Village should deem itself most
fortunate to have so attractive an
addition to its business center. "
ATTEND REUNIONS
Kenneth Barnard and H. Sears
Hoyt of Barnstable flew to Boston

year 's which proved to be such
tremendous fun. Dates for the

BREEZY KNOLL OPENS
An open house Sunday after-
noon launched the newest enter-
prise of Edith and Edward Zipern ,
Breezy Knoll Tea Room , which
opened officially for business this
week.
For several years, the Ziperns
have been making a name for
themselves, catering weddings and
other gala events as well as sup-
plying some excellent baked goods
and Swedish specialties.
Now, at the end of the little lane
on the north side of 6A in Cum-
maquid they will be host and host-
ess, along with daughter Sandy,
to those who want luncheon or
early tea in a restful atmosphere.
Breezy Knoll is well named , for
it is located atop a hill and the
dining areas are light and air , no
matter how hot the day. Capacity
for the tea room, which is seasonal,
is 40, and parking has been planned
to avoid congestion . . . a fact
proven at Sunday's affair.
Those who know the Ziperns
don't have to be told the food Is
better than good ; they already
know it, For those who are not
acquainted with them, we might
suggest driving up to Breezy Knoll
between noon and 4 on any day
day but Tuesday and finding out
for themselves.
