Salem Men S Club
Stages Minstrel
Show Held in High School Audit
orium Great Successful Be
Repeated Tonight Saturday..

Audiences that oyer1owed the audi
forum of the high school enjoyed the
minstrel show given under the aus
pices of the Mems Club of Salem NJ.
E.. Church last Wednesday and Thurs
day evenings. That all who attended
were pleased with the work of the
amateur performers was. easily dis
cerned when comments on the show
were made after the drawing of the
final curtain.
f.. Fun played the leading role in both
parts of the program, and the three
acts that were put on before the Minis
trel show were especially enjoyed.
Marshall York, better known to his
score of friends as Nike, who was
the star of other Amateur Night"
performances, featured a few years
ago at a theatre here. and Erred"
Roberts scored in the first act with
their unique appearance. They were
clad in ash cans, and the manner in
which their songs were sung proved
extremely humorous.
The following two acts, the second
one of which Bob" Carey played the
role of a girl, with Nike as the
husband, vas also greeted with ap-
plause, as did the third act, a school
sketch, with Harry Umbrine as teach
er.
With Frank Yoder as i~nterlocutor,
the Minstrels, with the selections Civ
en- by Charles Bowen, Mike" York,
Clarence Foresman, Stanley Zippler
were especially enjoyed. End men
took their parts especially well, and
the work of the Harmony Circle was
also greatly enjoyed.
Altogether it was a wonderful sue
cess, the participants acquitting them
selves like professionals, and so many
requests have been made for a repe-
tition from those unable to gain ad-
mission, it has been decided to re-
peat the production in the High School
Auditorium this Saturday evening.
May 8. Tickets will be on sale at the
door. Wednesday nights tickets will
be honored.
