Each homeroom paid fifty cents for admission. The sum to tal of these "fifty cents" was given to the PeJio Fund Drive, The Student Council sponsored our "free for all" and asked that all Senior High Students show the world their talent. And you'd be surprised just how much talent we have in those dark, 'ole hallowed halls! It was a gala event with all ihe girls dressed up in their pretty formals and the boys in their Sunday Suits", One would never have known this was ehanel. The program consisted mostly of vocal and piano numbers. Nancy Francis accompanied Sarah Jane Garrison on the piano while she sang, and she really made us drift and dream to "Nevertheless". A great deal of talent hurst forth in the form of oral recitations and impersonations. John Calhoun did some clever impersonations of well-known celebrities. "Mary Cary," a hilarious reading of the glad girl, was given by Margaret Noland. Julia Ann Calhoun strummed away wonderfully well on her like. By the way, this I'ke has a very exciting history. Julia Ann's aunt had it way back in 1918 at Caro lina, "the Hill" you know. 11 has "My Sweetie." "Five Foot Two." "Missouri Waltz," (not Tennessee i and other curernt tunes from way back then carved on it. There are also hearts, Initials, and fraternity symbols carved all over it. On this magic Uke, Julia Ann played "Two Sleepy People" and other popular songs. A very novel number that sur prised the entire student body was that of the High School Clodhop pers. Harry Kerly rushed out onto the stage, and, yelled "Everybody grab your partner and Told" the dance!" The previously picked couples for this act ran to the stage and began square dancing madly. It was really a grand program, and we all enjoyed it very much. Thank you Student Council! Lot's have more of our wonderful High School talent.
