George Blair and Mary Ellen Blankenship carried the leading arts and they were ably assisted by Tim Peterson and Mary Forslund, who sang wel and ciuried most of the comic parts of the musical. Other principals who capably performed, in this, the first operetta at WHS in more than two decades, were Florine Lane, Peggy Morgan, Myrtle May Pittman and Quentin Robbins. A specialty number, the can canf' was well done by Brenda Button, Joyce Stoliby, Marilyn Brown and Helen Kortes. The sets, reaching nearly three-fourths the length of the gymnasium floor fonly place big enough to stage the productionl, were designed and executed by Ted Dc Groot, Horse Shoe Theater Guild sparkplug and drama enthusiast.
