PG. 4, - PLAINDEALER - WED., APR. 3, 1968 Present MCHS Musical Show (Continued from page 1) numbers and "mob scenes*' that all musical comedies rely upon has been somewhat of a problem since all of the thirtyeight cast members must be -accommodated on the rather small stage. Getting cm and off the stage has presented quite a challenge. This is the first opportunity for many of the students involved to WOrk with a musical comedy, and they find it rewarding. Even during times when they are not on the stage, students stay in the auditorium to quietly watch the progress of the rehearsals, laughing harder each time they see a comedy scene giving encouragement through applause to soloists and thinking up funny bits that might be •included in the play. The students have also been surprised at the amount of work it takes to get a chorus number to a point ofpreciseness needed so that all in the audience can understand every word sung. Tickets for the show are available from cast members, or can be purchased at the door before the performances. To assure a seat, it is best to buy tickets in advance, but plenty of good seats are available for the Thursday night performance. Tag Day For Easter Seal (Continued from page 1) needs.

LETS LOOK AT THE ^ & RtCmDS * V BY LINDA NORRIS The combination of Ernie Ford and Marilyn Home on one phonograph record is a unique and unprecedented blend of imagination and foresight which spell brilliance . . . Tennessee Ernie, whose unusual scope has established him as an all-time leading star in the pop, country and religious fields of music, and Marilyn Home, whose operatic prowess and personal ch a r m' have won the praises of professional music critics throughout the world, team up in "Our Garden of Hymns" to create a vibrantly new world of m u s i c a l e l e g a n c e . . . Among t h e h i g h l i g h t s a r e Softly and Tenderly, In the Garden and Whispering Hope as well as such less frequently heard statements of faith as More Love to Thee, O Christ and Hear Thou My Pater. The fabulous foursome, The Seekers, sing and play a program of a dozen tunes, each designed to mesmerize in Seen in Green . . . F o l l o w i n g t h e sparkling opening number, Love Is Kind, Love Is Wine, the Seekers seque neatly to The Sad Cloud, 59th St. Bridge Song and then essay a brilliant rendition of Jacques Brel-Rod McKuen's If You Go Away . . . Among the originals are Bruce Woodley's Chase a Rainbow and Judith Durham's Can't Make Up My Mind. The expressive collection of c o n t e m p o r a r y music to be found in Stan Kenton's latest LP, The World We Know, v i v i d l y c a p t u r e s t h e v a r i o u s levels of excitement synonymous with this King of Brass . . . Each arrangement, comp l e m e n t e d by h i s p r o b i n g piano lines, evokes a wide range of emotion . . . From the intimately sad A Man and A Woman, to the light-hearted Girl Talk, Stan deftly fashions an album filled with bright, s w i r l i n g t o n a l c o l o r s . . . . Other highlights include This Hotel, Changing Times, Interchange, Gloomy Sunday and Theme for Jo. Poet's Corner "THE ROBIN'S RETURN" By Ann Frisby (Inspired by seeing the first robin) Welcome, Robin Redbreast, If you only knew How many, many times Pve watched And looked in vain for you. Your coming's like the sunshine lliat follows after rain, For now I know that Spring is here And Winter's gone again! Your chirp at the daybreak, A farewell to the night, Your happy song at twilight Makes all the world seem bright. Oh, could we make you understand The hope and joy you bring, Dear messenger of cheer and love, Fair harbinger of Spring. Time To By GERALD ANDREWS - Retirement Adviser Insurance and the Senior Citizen If you look up the word "insurance" in the dictionary, y o u ' l l f i n d a d e f i n i t i o n t h a t runs something like this: "a c o n t r a c t u a l o b l i g a t i o n by which the insurer, in return for premiums, undertakes to pay the insured a sum of money in case of loss or damage to his property, or at his or another's death.'" Few dictionary definitions are more significant than that one as far as older people are concerned. Most of us have some form of life insurance. Mahy have a whole series of other forms covering house, car, health, and so on. It's easy to take the premi: ums, and the protection, for granted when they've been in force for years. But that's a bad habit when you're headed toward your sixty-fifth birthday. What you should do is give your insurance policies a thorough re-examination in the light of your future plans. A lot of questions may arise that you never thought of before-- questions that need to be answered for your own peace of mind. You'll probably begin with your life insurance policy. If it gives you coverage for the rest , of your life, it may continue to fit yoilr needs, especially if you don't have to pay any more premiums after a certain age. But if you could use more money and less insurance, then a number of options are probably open to you, including simply cashing in your policy. On the other hand, if you have teem life insurance that stops at a certain age, you may want to convert it to a permanent policy. When this is possible, the premiums often rise sharply. So you have to decide whether the added protection is worth the cost. Annuities p r e s e n t different problems. One type provides only the buyer with a fixed income. Another type protects both husband and wife. Yet a third type allows your heirs to collect the difference between what you paid and what you received. All these factors have to be balanced out. Different types of insurance have to be considered on their own merits. The average person can't be expected to know all the ins and outs. But there are written guides to basic information, and a good one appeared in Harvest Years magazine. You can get a! copy by sending 50c to Harvest Years, Dept. 9-67, 104 East 40th Street, New York, N.Y. 10016. ^ U » •• •• • ---- AID FOR CANCER PATIENT Mrs. Frank Gregory, McHenry county cancer service chairman is seeking a ride to Michael Reese hospital, Chicago, one day a week for a cancer patient from this community.
