Slidell Women's Republican Club will hold a membership coffee Friday at 10 a.m.

Guests will be treated to a performance by nationally acclaimed pianist Ronnie Kole.

Guest speaker at the group's most recent meeting was Slidell obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Jason Collins.

Collins has conducted extensive research on umbilical cord abnormalities. He showed ultrasound and photographic examples in which the umbilical cord wrapped around the neck of a fetus, resulting in its death.

Collins has established the Pregnancy Institute in Slidell. Its goal is to monitor pregnancies by fetal heartbeat and ultrasound to detect and correct umbilical cord problems in utero.

The Slidell Women's Republican Club also was well-represented at the Louisiana Republican Party Convention held Aug. 20-22 at the Fairmont Hotel in New Orleans.

The club is planning a Nov. 19 fund-raiser which will feature guest speaker Fox McKeithen.
