. Page Eight High Life March 11, Studenis Inlerview Sfars of 'Oklahoma' By JOHN UTLEY Broadway came to Greensboro, February 21-23! Yes, in all its glorious color of stars and lights, The Theatre Guild of New York brought that wonderful show of Rodgers and Hammerstien, “Okla homa,” to Greensboro. “Oklahoma”—playing five years on Broadway, with a packed house every x>erformance—now is appearing all over the world in different tour ing companies. Greensboro had the extreme privilege of seeing the num ber one company. Who could have had more fun, than those select few, who managed to “meet the stars?” Your “Youth On the Air” (WGBG-11:30 Satur day morning) roving reporter, John Utley, and Bob Murray, Master-cere monies of program, had the honor of meeting the stars. With a few microphones, cables, and a wire re corder, we itrouped to the National Theatre, walked in, down some steps, through a door, down in a dirt tunnel for 20-30 yards, and up through an opening, and there to stare us in the face was Miss Ann Orowly, the beautiful 18 year co- star of “Oklahoma.” After setting up our equipment, we then turned to Miss Orowly, and I, with my great supply of curiosity and in terest, asked her: “What part do you play in “Oklahoma”? She re plied “Laiiry”. Miss Orowly has played in “Okahoma” for the past four and a half years. She joined “Oklahoma” when she was only 15. She has also played in “Carousel”, and many other Broadway hits. When asked as to her previous training, she stated that she had has no more training than the average high school girl—such train ing as singing lessons, and dancing. Miss Orowly, was exceedingly in terested in our work as well as in Show'll above are John Utley and Bob Murray, two Senior high students, interviewing Mr. Milton Clary, a professional singer who is a member of the cast of “Oklahoma.” The broadway production was presented in Greensboro on February 22 and 23 at the National theater. her own. She has attended high school, but not college. At that moment, Miss Orowly had to return to the stage for the remain der of the act. So we turned, and walked down the hall to see a hand some young man, who calmly stated that he was “Curly”! This man was Mr. Milton Clary, who co-stars with Miss Orowly.

As an interesting side light, it should be noted that Mr. Clary’s lucky day is Friday the 13th. He joined “Oklahoma,” Fri day, June 13, 1947. One of the most charming and entertaining persons we talked to was Miss Alicia Krug. Miss Krug is a professional ballet dancer. She danced with Laury in the dream ballet sequence of the show. In addition to the above persons, we talked to Murvyn Vye (Jud), Roy Milton (“Curly”) in dream ballet, Edith Gresham (Aunt Eller), and a few chorus girls, as well as Hy Anzei, the peddler. As a rule, most of the stars, stated that unless you are serious GUILFORD CLEANERS For Dependable Service CALL 3-7207 CAROLINA starting Sunday , ERROL FLYNN 'The Adventures of Don Juan' Color by Technicolor NATIONAL starting Sunday WILLIAM HOLDEN NINA POCH LEE J. COBB 'Dark Past' Then don’t!!!” It is remarkable to note that most of the stars of “Oklahoma” prefer the professional stage to Hollyw'ood, or radio. We shall always remember the warmth and kindness which these great people of “Oklahoma” gave us. “Oklahoma” is a great show, and this same adjective—great—des cribes its cast. So w'as an evening, backstage broadway! Oflacer: Why were you racing through town at that rate of speed? Buddy Stout: My brakes were out of order and I wanted to get home before there was an accident. TheBookVfoii After high school—what? One of the most important decisions any young person must make is that of choosing a career. Hundreds of jobs are open to qualified persons— jobs in the fields of radio, journal ism, personnel, chemistry,' medicine banking, labor relatioss, engineering’ machine shop work, busines admins tration, agriculture, electricity, de signing, law. printing, masonry public relations. The list could go on and on. Choosing one career from so many often puts a person in quite a daze as he trys to survey the entire 'field. Many factors enter into the final choice. First of all, what career holds the most interest for you? Will you be able to adjust yourself satisfactorily to the working condi tions of that career? How much preparation is necessary? What about hours and salary? Can your chosen career be followed in the section of the country in which you want to live? What about retire ment provisions in this career? What opportunities are there for advancement? Questions to be con sidered are almost endless. As Senior High approaches Career Day, the library staff invites each student to see the books and pamph lets availahe on various careers. The library has material on almost any career in which you may be interested. Up-to-date pamphlets will answer many of your questions. Books on careers are plentiful. W^e sugest a few helpful books and pamphlets. “Your Plans for the Future,” by Detjen, points out the important things to consider in choosing a career, getting your first job, and holding your job. Choosing the right career asd analyzing your self for the job are discussed in the pamphlet “How to Choose a Career,” by Humphreys. A discussion of vari ous careers, landing the job you want, and advancing on the job will be found in “Get the Job,” by Abra ham. j THE LOTUS RESTAURANT I Chinese and American Dishes 105 S.
