class of the Blue Ribbon Amateur
Show.

Applause
Major Bowes in his palmist days
couldn’t have provided more fun than
the sixteen amateurs who competed
for honors Thursday evening in the
Blue Ribbon Club Amateur Night in
the Dallas High School auditorium—
and they weren't selling Chase and
Sanborn coffee either,
The audience of 460 people, some
with seats and some without, thorough-
ly enjoyed the
and banter of ‘Major Clyde Lapp”
and “Graham Clark” who served as
master of ceremonies and announcer.
Arthur Franklin, as darky messenger
boy who delivered fictitious telegrams
from the business places of Dallas,
consistently brought down the House.
- Roy Moss, Dallas Star Route, wear-
ing a sombrero and red kerchief, was
first on the program. He entertained
with guitar and cowboy ballads that
would have thrilled the heart of’ Carl
Sandburg himself—not to mention Pom
Mix. He won second prize in the adult
class.
Dainty Lena Estelle Elston, 12 years
old, came next and gave a very pretty
little dance number. i
Philip R. Prutzman, 15 year old
Huntsville boy, proved himself the
most versatile of all the contestants ror
he played both the guitar and the
banjo.
Mabelle VanCampen displayed a de-
lightful sense of rhythm as she tap
clever repartee
danced. Though a bit too vigorous!
to be restiul, Maybelle
siderable promise.
The applause given Russell . Dodd,
young man from Harvey's Lake, proveda
that the folk of the Back Mountain
District, have the usual weakness for
yodelers. this quaint music of the
Swiss peasant never fails to find will-
11g ears. Russell has a wistful voice
and plays the guitar as he yodels. He
won first prize in the adult contest.

‘by Madeline Nulton, vocalist. Perhaps
“too *solemn for the occasion” would
explain the audience’s lack of enthu-
siasm in her performance. They want-
ed to laugh; that's why they were
there.
And that is just why the Shaver sis-
ters created such a riot, for they im-=
personated a ‘culled genle’'man” and
his’ Mandy. Decided originality in gest-
ure and a certain primitive rhythm as
they moved about the stage, made the
dialogue amusing. They deserved more
credit than they got.

Shy little Phyllis Ann Kunkle, aged
|5, in trim blue tucker and, perky hair
ribbon, won the hearts of the audience
at once. Cunning gestures seemed to
make up for her childish tone and un-
developed voice for she won second
prize in the children’s class.
Perhaps the most talented of all the
performers was Janet Garinger, toe
dancer. Her perfect - coordination of
hands and feet and easy graceful
movement, made her most awfully easy
to look at, She won third prize in the
children’s class.
Gene Kunkle Elston was fourth win-
ner in the children’s class. Gene is a
bashful little fellow and looked as
though he just wished the floor would
open and swallow him right up.
Audrey O’Kane, who has established
for herself a reputation in the Back
Mountain District as a singer and dan-
cer, took the first prize in the chil-
dren’s contest. Dressed in a white satin
evening suit with “topper”, she execut-
ed a difficult number to the tune of
“The Poet and the Peasant”. Her in-
terpretation was excellent though a
bit labored. Perhaps Fred Astaire’s
advice to his understudies “It isn’t so
much how or what you dance, as what
you do as you dance,” would put her
in line for professional success.
Ruth Louise Krause, vocalist, didn’t
quite strike her stride. Louise and
Madeline Nulton gave proof of the fact
that it’s easier to dance or play an in-
strument when you're scared, than it
is to use your voice.
Winners were selected by popular
applause and with the aid of the fol-
lowing judges: John McCartney of
Wilkes-Barre, Vester Vercoe of Forty
Fort and Vincent Shindel of Dallas.

Spurn “Dogs” And
Buns From Mer
Women Want Chicken Dinner
Promised As Reward
For Growth
By MRS. EARL CRAIG
The meeting of the Women’s Re-
publican Club of Dallas Township was
held at the Kunkle Grange Hall, Mon-
day evening, February 3.
Transportation was furnished by Ted
Wilson. By the way, Ted must be on
Central Time, for he was to meet us
at 7:30 and got there at 8:30. Or per-
haps he is woman-shy and thought
he’d wait until we were frozen up and
then we would be quiet. But we fooled
him, for as soon as we thawed out, we
were like chattering monkeys. The poor
man was so harassed and embarrassed
that while we were driving through
Dallas he threw the light on, and we
had to be quiet and sedate— all except |
| Ma Neyhart, who lost her seat. She |
said she only had a cup of tea, but I;
don’t know about that.
When we arrived at Kunkle the wo-
men from that district met wus. At
first we were cold and the early part
|of the meeting found us huddled
| around the big egg stove but after
|about five or ten minutes the women
began to move and move fast—and I
don’t mean maybe.
The meeting was called to order by
the president, Mrs, Katie Wilson. At
this time Mrs. Wilson handed in her
resignation in which she stated that
due to home duties, she felt she could
not do justice to the club. Her resig-
nation was" accepted and Mrs. Ciles
Wilson was elected to fill her place.
A bingo party was planned and the
following members of the entertain-
ment committee appointed: Mrs. Mor-
gan Ruch, Mrs. Alfred Edwards, Mrs,
George Bellas, Mrs. Lewis Jones, Mrs.
Ray Williams and Mrs. Lewis Strit-
zinger. This committee will be in
charge of the entertainment in the
South District all year. (There are
three districts of our organization—
the North, the South and the Middle.)
As there was no other business, the
club adjourned. On the way home the
ladies were given a surprise when they
learned that the Republican Men’s Club,
who had promised to cook us a chick-
en banquet if we stepped up from 18
to 33 members—which we did—now
offered us hot dogs and buns! Nothing
doing—we’ll be on their necks.
Plans have been outlined for a joint
meeting with the men’s club some
time in the near future, and then we
except a night of fun that will beat
Major Bowes Amateur Hour.
This wound up our club night until
February 25 when we meet at Mrs.
Wilson’s. By the way, I counted all the
women when we got on the bus and
tried to count them when we left, but
if we have lost or mislayed any, kind-
ly notify us, as they are too good to
lose.
Toodle doo—we’ll be see'in you.
