94 Visits with the Stars... William Mooney, “Half-Horse, Half-Alligator” has led an interesting life. His assets include, how to make tomato soup with catsup and water —from the earlier days of his career when he had little to eat and no money. Mooney’s monologue of “riverboat tales” provided an interesting experience for North- wood students when he came to the campus. His dialogue of the different characters on the steamboat and on the frontier brought gales of laughter from the student body assembled in Dow Commons.

When Victor Borge takes his seat at the piano and his hands make their first contact with the keyboard you'll find yourself laughing within seconds.” Such was the case with his performance at the Central High School Auditorium on October 7, 1966. This was another of the opportunities open to North- wood students to see and hear performers of. this type. Miss Eleanor Sayer of the Boston Museum of Art is shown at the left with Northwood journalism stu- dents. Although she spoke mainly to art teachers from Midland and various art students, Miss Sayer, like other Northwood guests was able to spend time in interviews of this sort. Above, Jose Greco and Nina Lorca, another Town and Campus attraction, are seen in one of the many dance routines that were presented at the Central High School Auditorium on March 6. 95
