Original operetta scheduled Wednesday evening, junior high school auditorium Over 200 students and that many mothers, to say nothing of teachers and others, are working frantic-ally on details for the forthcoming junior high school operetta, to be presented next Wednesday evening, April 18, in the junior high auditorium. Special costumes and stage effects will add to the- - music, dance and acting talents of the young performers. The operetta presentation is unique in the fact that it is composed .by the students givi-ng" them an opportunity to create and display many tal-ents. The story takes place in a. small high school in a current age and portrays humor, dra-ma and romance. The original story is by Ger-en- e Cope and Jeff Sorenson and the music by Thomas Bie-singe- r, teacher in charge of the project. The drama is being worked out by David Gledhill; the dancing by Emerson and La-Jea- n Lyman and the scenery by LaRell Francis. Those who have seen pre-views of parts of the perform-ance declare it is even better than last year's presentation at which the audience so mar-veled. Remember, when you point your finger accusing at some-one else, you've got three fin-gers pointing at yourself.

A cappella choir booster organization expresses appreciation for support in fund-raisin- g campaign They said there was no com-- l munity spirit left in Spring-ville . . . we suspected it at timeSj too. But we were wrong. There is, but just as with all people, it has to be stirred up to become apparent. The response by the people "of "this area in behalf of our World-Fai- r bound High School A Cappella Choir has been wondrous ! True to tradition of the choir, Director Glenn Monta-ji-raade it known at the start that his young choir members are not afraid of work and ex-pected to earn the necessary funds for the trip as far as possible. The parents were in-vited to organize themselves to assist in this endeavor. The community spirit soon asserted itself and people be-gan saying, "What can I do to help?" And some didn't even wait to be told . . . and so . . Thanks to the Federated Mu-sic Club, the Lions Club and various individuals for the "nest egg" that has been hat-ching ever since . . . Thanks to our own Spring-ville Herald for their generous giving of one-ha- lf the price of subscriptions solicited by choir members . . . Thanks to the Ladies Liter-ary Club and assisting women's clubs for presenting a rare and touching entertainment in Miss Helen Kimball's review of the story of Michaelangelo. Thanks to the Chamber of Commerce and our merchants for the coupon books being distributed by the choir par-ents which give us all a chance to visit and really get acquain-ted with what our business houses in Springville have to offer. Think about it . . . you get a profit from every coupon you use besides the choir re-ceiving the full $5.00 you paid for the book . . . To those of you who purch-ased one of the coupon books, take time to visit those mer-chants and redeem those cou-pons, everyone of them, be-fore the expiration date of June 1. To those of you who may not yet have purchased one. Let a choir parent show you one, look it over thorough-ly and see for yourself what it is. Thanks to others like the Jaycee Wives who have given other ideas which might be developed . . . ALSO, thanks to our Spring-ville artists Glen Turner and Rell Francis who are working on "the design for a beautiful program telling about our com-munity, valley, and state; our choir and school. The choir members will distribute these to their listeners in Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Califor-nia and Nevada when they sing along the tour trail. AND, a big thanks to every friend of the choir who has thus far so generously partici-pated in these projects. You are Springville's community When the "checking in" can be completed on the progress made so far, it will be publish-ed for you . . . but we couldn't wait to say THANKS! The Choir Boosters. |
