DON'T LIKE TO
BE CALLED KIDS

A most serious problem
faced the younger generation
participating in the recent
Riddles Kabarets!
They didn't mind display
ing their vocal talents and
asked 10 show their ninble-
ness of feet in tap and exhi-
bition dances. But they don't
want the Cabarets they have
been appearing in twice
monthly to be prefixed by the
name Riddles. That was a
gross insult to their growing
dignity. Victor Larsen. Re-
creational Director. remon-
strated with them. landing
the euphoniousness of the
name and showing that il was
used in many other places.
Well. he finally got the girls
TO come around. They didn't
mind. But the boys are still
determined. They were not
going to be so maligned. And
believe US. they were not.
The new name of the Kid
die Kabarets is BaYview Mu-
sic Hour. Which is difnified
enough to suit any young
growing-upper.
