il! 5 Doris 'Ntlsnn thostn amhortt Queen to commtm t nmwersiry of the imbortt Jamboree Dolly in numher two .... take that sequence out .... that's it, let's see a full shot .... Oh, no, Dear Readers, we haven't gone crazy, that's just the type of talk around stingtown be- tween February 24-26. But let's start at the he- ginning .... With all the talk around the country swinging toward the topic of Television, the script continu- ity for the 1949 Jamboree could see its work cut out for this year's plot. lt all started with il simple prologue being handed to the sponsor sometime in October by script chairman, Al Freeh- lin. From there the story was devised, the main cast chosen, the talent picked out, and look wha' happen : Ted Scott QBruce Ross, led the crusade in MHS to head all the schools in the community in a live video show, but Frank Dutton fBob Huffmanj, a student over at Jackson, had other ideas. After all he certainly didn't want his school to he over- shadowed in television by the Stings, so he planted a very attractive girl, Cathy Lewis QPat Sheelerj in the path of our hero, Ted. The idea was, that Cathy could keep in touch with Frank on all the happenings over at Miami High without anyone's, especially Ted, being the wiser. Thatis the backgiound, but let's relive the 1949 Jamboree by taking a SGZII with the audience . . . Hey, look. here come three creepy looking charac- ters down the aisle and, by gosh, they're sitting in seats marked Faculty Censorsf' If we get hungry during the show, we certainly don't have to starve to death, because there goes a guy selling candy and popcorn to the crowd. Boy, what they won't think up next. Shhh, the curtain's going up and the whole cast is singing, There's No Business Like Show Busi- ness. The way some of those kids look, they should have changed the title to 'I'hey've Got No Business in Show Business. According to the program, the dance team of Saxon and King are supposed to dance now . . . Yep, there they go. That looks like Bruce Ross up there, and here comes juliet Loret on the stage. and Ross is calling him Mr. Thomas. Oh! l get it! XX ell the crowd has quictcd down and thc Broadcasters want to perform Say that s a good idea they re doing a take off on Sam Spade
