Again the Z. of c. has hit the
record mark for entertaining the
musicale and dance given last night
for the men Of the service and their
friends in Pensacola. It was the
fourth Of q series of entertainments

and with each successive event the
attendance increases until last night
the entire upper floor was utilized to
make room for the dancers.
Before the dance, however, a most
enjoyable musical program was rem
dered, both local and service artists
taking part in the performance. The
first number was selection by "Bill"
Conner, of the aeronautic station,
known at the yard as the "Ragtime
King" The number was undoubtedly
one of the big hits of the program,
as was the duet later rendered by Mr.:
Conner and Mr.. Greene, both OF
whom have had wide experience in
musical entertainments.
Following Mr.. Connor, Miss Mamie
Bicker sang Joan of Arc" the big
popular hit, and received tremend-
Gus applause. Miss Bicker was fol-
lowed by Miss Frances Christie who
gave an emotional recitation THE
Spirit of '73''
After Miss Christie, Miss Mary
Boylan sang ''Allah's Holiday" and
was forced to give several encores.
"BilT' Conner and Winslow Green
then delighted the audience with sew
eral selections-it was sometime be-
fore the audience would let them go.
In conclusion the ininitable couple,
John Frenkle, and Miss Clara Frenkle,
staged that popular skit, THE Piano
Tuner but, true to form were forced
to give several encores.
After the musical program dancing
was INDUCED in to a late hroouur.
Light refreshments were served dur
ing the evening.
