Revue program presented
several nights ago.
A typical letter is the one
received from Luther Dona-

reads:
"Your CHS. Sports Review
of May 4, was a big hit and I'm
sure that all who listened to
the program can give nothing
else than the highest praise for
the way it was put over. Miss
jeanette Richards, the vocal
iet of the Rhythm Makers was
just terrific.
LET me say this, that the
fine craftsmanship shown by
the c. H. S. students was
something noticeable during
the entire net with the
Cabs. Also their conduct on
and off the field was excellent,
which should be compliment
ed as nowadays It is a rare
thing to see a group of teen
agers conduct themselves
properly.
