The concert will showcase young (under 21 years of age) talent throughout the county. "I would like to have all in­ terested young people who play any instrument from the auto harp to the drums, or sing, dance, do ventriloquism, magic, etc., to write me at Box 253, McHenry, expressing an interest in performing," she said. "Volunteers are also needed as stage hands, carpenters, artists, typists, costume designers, wig makers, and p r o g r a m a d v e r t i s i n g salesmen," * Mrs. Thomas added. The idea for the program came about when Mrs. Thomas discovered, through her travels around the county, that there is an abundance of talented youths in the area, and that they should be seen and heard. Interested persons should include in their letter to Mrs. Thomas their talent, phone number, address, and age. The director will then contact all persons by phone. Participants in the concert may appear as either a solo performer, or in a group. Mrs. Thomas had hoped to provide a college scholarship for a worthy, talented youth with proceeds from the concert. However, due to limited facilities at the Opera House, the director will have to rent pianos, organs, etc., and pay the moving expenses for these items. Mrs. Thomas is qualified to direct such an extravagant concert. She broadcasts a musical program from her home every morning, and has also taught music and per­ formed in public for many years. B.S.
