After Hours Entertainment
LSO Troupe Opens In Keflavik;
Features Musical Comedy Act
If the servicemen here in Keflavik are getting just a little bit bored with life, they
are in for a real treat.
This NATO Naval Station will soon become an enchanted island of white sandy
beaches and swaying palms, and a few swaying dancing girls to top it off. At least it
will be that way for a night or two anyway.
Students of Southwest Missouri State College (SMS) will arrive Monday to provide
this interlude of enchantment. The feature of their tour will be Roger’s and Hammer-
stein’s musical masterpiece, “South Pacific.”
The troupe, under the direction^
of Leslie Irene Coger, consists of
18 performers; nine men and nine
women. They are sponsored by
the USO (United Services Or-
ganization). Keflavik is to be
their first stop along their five-
week tour of the Northeast area.
The entertainers will sing un-
forgettable songs like “Some En-
chanted Evening,” “A Cock-eyed
Optirnist,” “I’m Gonna Wash That
Man Right Outa My Hair,” and
the sailor’s eternal theme song—
“There Is Nothin’ Like A Dame”
from “South 'Pacific.”
Besides, the group has prepared
a variety show featuring popular
songs from the hit parade and
Broadway shows.
The talented students of South-
west Missouri State College can
certainly do “South Pacific” jus-
tice. They are hot only active in
campus dramatic activities, but
also perform in their semi-pro-
fessional Tent Theatre where they
entertain tourists and native
Springfieldians throughout the
summer months.
In 1961, the group toured the
European command with “Fini-
an’s Rainbow” and were described
as one of the best groups to tour
Europe in that year. An editorial
praising the troupe appeared in
“Stars and Stripes.”
The Northeast tour of “South
Pacific” is made possible by the
generous contributions of the
American people to USO, a pri-
vate, non-profit organization, so
that it can continue its service
of bringing clubs, recreational
facilities and live, free entertain-
ment to the members of the Ar-
med Forces “wherever they go.”
they go.”

Brendan Behan’s N.Y.
by Behan
This book is brilliantly comple-
mented by Paul Hogarth, whose
drawings evoke a nostalgia for
the known and not so well-known
features of the “melting pot of
the world.” Behan’s anthropoligi-
cal investigations cover a wide
variety of places, people and
things, always accompanied by ri-
bald anecdote and rambunctious
description.
