Among the seniors in the swing band were Morris Barnes, alto sax; Howard Candie, trumpet; Thomas Cunningham, trombone: Lloyd Edwards, tenor sax; Michael Krwawicz, tenor horn and Ed Wolfe, trumpet. tlAmerica Singsll gave a wonderful boost to the reputation of Ben Frank- lin. It convinced many skeptics that our boys have the talent, perseverance and intelligence to successfully stage a real show. We are indebted to the girls of Wm. Penn who participated in the play. To Mr. Fox, for his untiring efforts, knowl- edge and skill, we render our thanks. We will never forget the experience of seeing or taking part in our own show, tlAmerica Sings? We also wish to thank Mr. Browne, who assisted in the coach- ing and publicity, and all the students and faculty members who offered their services. Last, but not least, we wish to express our appreciation to Dr. Horo- witz, our principal, for his enthusiasm and cooperation.
