Big bands live on

Wednesday, June 18, 2003

Dear Editor,

I wonder how many remember we were dancing to the same tune in 1943.

Upstairs at the YMCA (downtown) it cost $2.50 to rent the hall and the juke box.

We found 25 people, at least, who would chip in a dime and we danced and really had fun.

Where have the 60 years gone? They were so great and from the picture in the Gazette, it looks like the Big Band will live forever. I hope so!

Merle Paul,

Class of '45
