So good were the comedy and minstrel show given by the
Edgeworth Junior High School two weeks ago that some of
the Sewickley Kiwanians who saw it immediately decided it
would be well to give the whole Valley a chance to enjoy it
as well as the Edgeworth people; so, through the efforts of
the club and the cooperation of the Sewickley school authorities, it is to be repeated tonight at 8:15 in the Sewickley high
school auditorium, the receipts to be turned over to the Union
Aid Society to help toward their extraordinarily large task
■in. earing for those in need in the local district extending
from Haysville to Pair Oaks. Attending this entertainment
is an easy and pleasant ,way of contributing toward the aid
of our own community's people, as many have declared their
desire to do; and it will also give the contributor far more
than his money's worth, an evening of pure fun and enjoyment.
First comes the one-act comedy, "A Case of Suspension,"
a rapid succession of laughable and surprising dramatio situations—the scene is in a young ladies' seminary—with fantastic
plots and counter-plots working out to the happy denouement,
In this play appear Jean Powell, Margaret Cameron, Alice
Hamilton, Mary Ann Value, Charles Roth, George Kroepil,
Neal Clay, Edmund Trapp, Robert Evans and Sarah Mitchell.
Then the curtain rises on the "Smoketown Minstrels," with
Fred Roth and Andy Scott as Interlocutors, and six of the
best young endmenyou ever saw—James Lightfoot, Lawrence
Moore, Julian Harris, Herbert Mossett, Lewis Harris and
Leonard Moore. Others in the troupe are Marie and Betty
Wolfe, Norma Uplioff, Mary Allebach, Mary Alice Low, Agnes
Lorlmer, Harriet Burkholder, Helen McCready, Florence and
Marjorie Pearce; George Vincent, Jack Thornton and Billy
Pearce, as the Harmonica Trio; and Fred Mossett, tap-dancer.
The performance is replete with catchy music, pretty dancing,
and witty crossfire. Assistant Principal Russell Hayes is the
director.
Every year the Kiwanis Club has been making a donation
to the work of the Union Aid Society and the sponsoring of
this entertainment is the club's contribution this year. But
they also feel that Sewickley people generally -will be grateful
to the club for giving them this opportunity not to miss this
extremely entertaining show.
