The rumor came .True as he surprised every- one by singing The bluesy classics, lvlidnighT Hour and 'Gimme Some Lov- ing. When some of his sTudenTs were asked how The king of soul per- formed, They played iT safe by replying wiTh a no commenT. Even wiTh all The aTTrac- Tions,iTurnouT was lower Than exoecTed. Only g abouT 75 couples braved The cold To go dancing. We did make a profiT of .abouT S11O.OO, said orga- nizer Jenne Wason. When .asked if The WinTer Carni- ivalwas The beginning ofa new TradiTion, Jenne re- plied. I Think sog iT jusT goT a slow sTarT!
