‘0b This aud That’
by the editor’s wife
The Master Showman was
back in our area!
He wasn’t booked as a
“magician,” but for two
nights last week at Hershey,
Liberace held an Arena
FULL of people “in the palm
of his hand!”
For some reason or other,
we had never seen Liberace
in person before, only on
television, so we were not
quite prepared for the
phenomenon that occurred
at Hershey last Friday night.
With great informality, in a
personal and intimate way,
Liberace royally entertained
some 8,000 peopl: with his
fabulous piano music, his
indescribably beautiful and
elaborate costumes, and his
wit. Even at the end of two
and a half hours his audience
seemed to be asking the
question, “Why Can’t This
Night Go On Forever?”
Like everyone else in the
arena, we were completely
charmed and dazzled by the

Outdoor Commencement Planned
For Perhaps Largest DHS Class
An outdoor com-
mencement -- Donegal high
school’s first -- is being
planned for Tuesday, June 4.
The school’s 19th annual
graduation exercises are to
be held on the football field,
Principal Donald Drenner
said this week.
Plans are for the seniors to
be seated on a platform on
the field and for the parents,
guests and others who attend
to use the football bleachers.
Exercises will begin at 6
p.m.
Drenner said that because
of the uncertainty of the
weather, it will be necessary
to have stand-by plan and
arrangements to hold the
commencement in the
auditorium, if necessary.
However, if the weather
does interfere with the
outdoor program, the
arrangements inside will not
be as elaborate as they
otherwise might be, the
principal added.
Broske To Graduate
At Indiana U.
George F. Broske, son of
Mr. and Mrs. George F.
Broske, School Lane, is a
candidate for the master of
music degree at Indiana
university, Bloomington,

Commencement will be
held Sunday, May 12.
County Association
The May meeting of the
Ladies Auxiliary to the
Lancaster County Firemen’s
Association will be held on
Wednesday, May 15, at the
West Earl Fire Co. in
Brownstown, beginning at
7:30 p.m. All interested
women are invited.
Arrangements are in
charge of a committee
headed by 1974 Class
President Rick Holt and the
faculty advisor, Miss
Catharine G. Zeller.
Usually, because of the
time of year, the D.H.S.
auditorium is uncomfortably
warm and there has been
talk for
holding an
ceremony.
It is expected that the 1974
class will be the largest in
the school’s history. In 1973
there were 179 graduates,
which is the largest to date.
The year 1963 was the
smallest - 101.
