for the two-night show. and an
audience of more than 300. were
entertained by a group of some
100 excellent performers. . °.

From a children’s rhythm
band to a demonstration on
fencing, talent came.in a.maze.

Youngsters have .a- particular
charm of their own and flaws

_ which would ordinarily ruin an

act added humor and spice to
the rhythm band. numbers, ‘
‘Under the capable and some-

. times frustrated guidance of. in-
structor, Ernestine Peterson, the

children kept the audience rol~
