I Beg Your Pardon: Juanita Wasn’t With
Tom — Apparently It’s Still Chuck
By BARBARA BENNETT
Hi, kids!
Monday, May 8. the 2 O’Neill
bands went to Norfolk, where
they participated in a parade
which consisted of 27 bands
from north
east and north
central N e -
braska. It was
a spectacular
sight with all
the different
colored uni
forms. All the
bands got to
gether at an
intersection to
play 2 songs
in a mass per
B&rbara formance un
Bennett der the direc
tion of Lt. Cmdr. Charles Brend
ler, conductor of the U. S. navy
band.
Main attraction of the day
was the appearance of the
nary band, with which I had
the great honor to play. It is
a wonderful band and every
one enjoyed it very much.
Wednesday, May 10, was the
presentation of the O’Neill high
school senior class play, “Arse
nic and Old Lace.” It was very
good, especially Allen Porter,
who would yell “charge! and
gallop up the stales, and also the
2 sweet old ladies (Beverly
Boelter and Alice Scofield), who
had 12 gentlemen buried in their
Panama canal. Confusing, but
good.
The St. Mary’s band donned
uniforms Wednesday morning,
May 10, to march for Archbish
op Bergan. Also that day the
seniors treated the juniors to
a movie, a nice, quiet, relaxing
thing called "Africa Screams’’
Boy, did it!
Last Thursday and Friday
evenings, SMA presented Gil
bert and Sullivan's “Mikado,”
which was excellent. Larry
Morris played Nankipoo and
Mary Ellen Steele portrayed
Yum-Yum. It was a story of 2
young people, who want to get
married but are afraid to for
fear they will both be killed,
their heads chopped off or will
be buried alive. But everything
turns out fine.
I have a correction to make.
Juanita wasn’t with Tom OHS
banquet night. It’s still Chuck.
A thousand pardons for my er
:or.
That’s all. See you.__
Unemployment Down
51% Last Month
Applications for work filed al
the Norfolk employment office
dropped from 162 in March to
140 in April. On May 1, 137 per
sons were actively seeking work
through the Norfolk office as
compared to 284 on April 1 and
592 on March 1.
Accordingly, supply of unem
ployed workers decreased 52
per cent in March and 51 per
cent in April. While agricultur
al and construction laborers
went back to their seasonal
jobs in large numbers, there
was a slight increase in the
number of clerical and sales
workers in the labor market.
Throughout the month there
was a constant shortage of well
qualified farm and ranch hands,
but by the end of April supply
had gained some on demand.
Many farmers and ranchers, un
able to hire competent help
when needed most, decided to
get along without and cancelled
their calls for workers at the
employment office.
Nevertheless, 120 farm work
ers were hired through the Nor
folk office in April as compar
ed to 88 in the month of April
last year. At Ainsworth and O’
Neill approximately 25 women
poultry plant workers were still
"nemployed because 2 plants
'iad not reopened for business
after their seasonal shut-down
’ast fall. While most construc
tion laborers returned to build
ing road construction jobs
♦here were about 25 men in the
area still unemployed and wait
ing for jobs to develop at Ft.
Randall dam.
