Hi Folks; Dizzie Dazie report- ing the latest: on the DD Show! Things are taking shape very nicely — practices every day ,— either Ballet, play or Minstrels and costumes are nearing corn- pletion.

Paul's Choir— Town Hall—Thursday and Fri- day, March 29 and 30. Tickets are 50 cents for all (adults or children) and if you're wise you'll take your ticket to Bartliff's store, where you'll find the reserved seat plan. It'll cost 10 cents more, but it'll be worth it, for there'll be a full house both nights! While there, cast your eye for the box in the window. That's where you drop the coupon you've already clipped off your ticket, and an which you've written en appropriate name for "D.D." Who knows—you may win the five bucks which is being offered! Here are the rules of the contest: 1. Simply invent a catchy name for the show using two words— each beginning with the letter "0". Judged for originality and aptness. 2. An entry blank is given with each ticket purchased. 3. Entries must be in the box in Bantliff's Store not later than Wednesday evening, March 27. 4. Judges decision is final. In case of duplicate entries, one name will be drawn. Easy, isn't it? One wit (?) says he's entering the name "D - - - - Dawful" but I'11 guar- antee that won't take the prize, for the show will be D - - - - D GOOD! A name like "Delight- ful Distraction" would be more pleasing to the judges—not to mention the cast! If you haven't been canvassed to buy a ticket, call in to see Herb.
