DR TCB, you're right about my preference for college football, but we do watch the Cincinnati Bengals.  Yesterday's game had an exciting finish!

Here's a review from Talkin' Broadway of the Sweeney Todd we saw Friday night.  Pretty much what I said, but he's more taken with the leading man than I.

DR John did you accomplish everything for your parent's you felt needed doing?  If nothing else, I am sure they enjoyed having you for an extended visit.

No. But it was a good visit. My having to work proved to be cumbersome. Won't someone win that $222 million lottery for me?

In addition to DR Elmore's theatre way-back machine, I've also been riding the Miami-Middletown way-back machine for the campus' 50th anniversary.  Tomorrow evening is the library session for the video footage that will be edited into an oral history of the campus.  I'll be in the "front row," along with the current director of the library and a staff member I hired and who retired under the current director.  I think several of my student workers will be there and so will my husband who was one of our loyal "community borrowers."  Hope some others show up, too.

Anyway, here's a photo of one of the many bulletin board displays I created for the snack bar area of the main classroom building.  This one was for American Music Month in February 1974.  Can anyone guess the piece?

And here's a gathering we had in May of 1977 to show off our government documents collection, which we'd just moved up from the basement.  My mentor, Virginia Brown, is in the striped dress on the far left and Becky, who I frequently meet for coffee/breakfast/lunch, is right next to me (with the scarf around her neck).  Her "Mrs. Brown," Mrs. Heidler, is second from the left partially hidden.

Finally, here I am, now married and director of the library, demonstrating the OCLC computer system to some students in the first year of "Kids in College" in 1981 or 1982:

I don't know about the Beef Association thing, but that sure sounds like Copland. 

I get his pieces mixed up, so I'll leave it at that!   :)

Ah.....I shall have to look at the music again.

DR GINNY did they always call you when they took publicity pictures?  They must have known about your theatre background.
