Jack And Sally Appear
At College Friday Night
"When we sing, we donl
just try to make pretty
sounds," say Jack and Sally
Jenkins, the sensational
young singing team, who will
be appearing at the Louisburg
College Auditorium Friday
night, October 17, at 8:00.
"We place a great deal of
emphasis on the words of a
song and try to convey to the
audience what the composer
wanted to say."
In their act. Jack and Sally
cover almost every type of
vocal music. After finishing a
brassy, belting .number, it's
just like Sally to turn to a
favorite operatic aria. And
Jack, who can "swing" with
intricate jazz numbers, can
also handle a quiet folk tune
or a robust love song with
equal facility.
Blessed with extraordinary
good looks, as the accom
panying photograph plainly
reveals, the handsome couple
first met In their voice
teacher's studio at the Univer
sity of Tampa. They began
singing professionally shortly
after their graduation and in
less than a year established
themselves among1' ftW top
ranking supper club acts in
the nation. They were "dis
covered" by Guy Lombardo,
who booked them for a year
long national concert tour.
Since then they have ap
peared on the Ed Sullivan
television show, performed
leading roles in several Off
Broadway productions and
have been engaged by the
finest hotels such as the
Americana in New York and
the Fontainebleau in Miami
Beach.
Jack and Sally's recent en
try into the college and com
munity concert field has been
another successful and satis
fying experience for them.
The public is invited to
Friday night's 8:00 concert,
which is sponsored by the
Louisburg College Inter-Club
Council. Tickets may be ob
tained at the door.

TAKE THE BIG, REWARDING
10-MINUTE BREAK BEFORE
YOU BUY A NEW CAR,
After you select a new car, driving it out is like wait
ing on Santa Claus. It's exciting. You want it in minutes.
But smart, economical new car buyers temper their
excitement with experience. They have a standing rule.
Namely, to take the Can-Do 10-minute break before fi
nancing. They simply go to their nearby First-Citizens
Bank Installment Loan Department.
Here, they often make substantial savings through
First-Citizens' popular, low bank rate auto finance plan.
Join the experienced. Take the big, rewarding 10-minute
break. Talk to First-Citizens first before you finance. For
qualified buyers, there's no brake, no delay. Just Can-Do
all the way.
