COLUS SHOW I Can't Say No and Stuff Like That There were probably a little above the heads of the older members of the audience but with the strains of the When My Baby Smiles at Me and t'I.iza Jane they really came into their own for the Colus Show was composed of laughs and music to satisfy all ages. This Is America, the theme, was depicted in scenes from typical American Life such as The Corner Drug Store starring' the teen age crowd, The Cowboys on the moonlit prairie and The Darkiesu singing on the banks of some southern river. A wonderful time was had by all including the cast who really put their heart and soul into the show. JOAN SIVLNY
