‘Bloomer Girl’ Cast To Begin
Rehearsals, Auditions Monday
“Bloomer Girl” will be the sum
mer musical at A&M University,
Robert L. Boone, director, an
nounced.
Rehearsals will open Monday for
the university-community produced
musical comedy July 16-18.
A modem musical with old-
fashioned charm, “Bloomer Girl”
depicts a successful Yankee hoop-
skirt manufacturer who attempts
to boost his sales through the mar
riage of his six daughters to super
hoopskirt salesmen.
All but Evalina, the youngest,
accept the idea. She is attracted
to her Aunt Dolly, an arden suf
fragette, the originator of the
bloomer and a believer in the
emancipation of slaves.
So Evalina is trouble for her
father, even wears bloomers in
defiance.
The picture becomes more cloud- \
ed, however, when her father
brings forth a handsome suitor
from the southern hoopskirt dis
trict. Shortly after this, Fort
Sumter is fired upon, and war
looms above everything.
Boone and assistant director Mrs.
Billie Jean Barron are in the pro
cess of recruiting a 50-member
cast, plus orchestra and technical
workers.
Mrs. Betty Sholly will direct
the choreography. Harry Gooding,
local architect, will direct the stage
sets, and Wallace Johnson, stu
dent programs assistant at A&M,
has charge of scenery and stage
operations.
Rehearsals will begin Monday
and auditions will continue each
night through Friday in the Social
Room of the Memorial Student
Center.
“Anyone who has had experience
or wishes to gain experience,”
Boone said, expressing his desires
for a cast. “Residents of Bryan-
College Station, university or high
school students. . . ”
A recent run by collectors on
silver dollars has cleaned out the
Treasury Department’s supply of
“cartwheels” except for a reserve
of some three million.

Thanks To Everyone
Again I say thanks to the voters of Precinct 1 who sup
ported me in the May 2nd Democratic Primary.
I consider it a very great honor to merit the confidence
of so many Brazos County voters. I am asking for re-
election to this office June 6th. I will give it my un
divided attention as I have done in the past as it is a
full-time job and should be handled as such. Again I say
Thank you,
Raymond Nolan
