by learning diversity of shots. His
lengthy training on the public courses

on a show that vies with the
regular Hangar theatres. Maurice
Tapps, naturally, will be there, as

The celebration will begin with

anything.

is naturally causing quite

English lass, does a Hula-Hula
that brings even the less-imagina-
tive people right down to the sand

And Emory Daugherty, who gets
more popular by the hour, pre-

songs that fit the holiday season.
