AH! SHORT PERIODS . . . Irs AUDITCRIUM TIME Through the efforts of Miss Nora Thomas, auditorium program sponsor, and her com- mittee of two. Jack Thompson and Ann Metzger, much of the best local and state talent has appeared before Shortridge stu- dents in entertainment programs this year. Drawing mainly on Shortridge sources, the group has furnished each Shortridger with approximately twenty aggregate hours of enjoyment during the two semesters. Of the serious nature, programs for Ar- mistice Day, Christmas, Easter, and Mem- orial Day, as well as a bird lecture. and War Service, Awards Day, and Honor Roll pro- grams have been presented. In a great number of programs, the efforts of Mrs. Laura Moag and her vocal groups, Robert Shultz and the Shortridge Band, and Will Wise and the Orchestra were especially note- worthy. The Band's presentation of Peter and the Wolf in the early spring was an enjoyable musical highlight. Two talent programs and three pep meet- ings Were featured in the schedule. Swing from various student bands often enlivened the school day in Caleb Mills Hall variety shows. Miss Eleanor Dee Theek organized. in the HalloWe'en spirit, a spirited review appropriate to the season. Among those frequently featured in programs have been Julie Richardson, senior chanteuse, and John Rawlings, all-around handy-man in the music field. The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra brought a light classical concert to Caleb Mills Hall, with Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue a favorite selection. The R.O.T.C. pro- moted a serio-comic show starring Paul Lennon and Shideler Harpe in a satire on Army life. At various times teaser programs were given as publicity for the all-school play. the Junior Vaudeville, and the Senior Play. The auditorium program this year has meant much more to Shortridge than short- er periods for the day.
