ORGANIZATIONS p e r e I i a Circleville high school auditorium echoed with the music of Gilbert and Sullivan as the music department, under the direction of Mrs. Grace Kiger, presented All at Sea. This production, the first operetta given by this high school in 13 years, contains familiar selections and characters from five Gilbert and Sullivan operettas. The cast of 64 included high school and eighth grade pupils. Accompanists were Dwight Weiler, violinist, and Ruth Blumm and Mrs. Kiger, pianists.
