Overseas Tour Awaits 10 KU Entertainers
A three-month tour of either Europe or the Far East, sponsored by the USO, is in the offing for 10 KU students who have entertainment talent, according to P. K. Worley, Topeka senior, organizer of the tour.
Worley, with five other students,
has organized a show to present to
U. S. Armed Forces at overseas
bases during the coming summer.
What is needed now is added talent, according to Worley. "We are looking specifically for a boy who can play either tenor or alto sax, or both, and a master of ceremonies."
Worley said that they are looking for any and all girls who have dancing, singing, comedy or any other business talent—entertainment wise.
Open auditions will be held at 2:30 p.m. Sunday in 32 Strong.
Worley, formerly in special services in the Army, conceived the idea for the show through his association with other USO shows, while serving in the Far East.
The KU tour has the complete endorsement of the University administration, as well as the music department of the School of Fine Arts.
Travel arrangements and dates will be made by the USO camp shows service.
The idea of university and college students presenting shows to the armed forces abroad is credited to students at the University of Michigan, who began their tours after the Korean war ended.
Sorry, the show crew is limited to 16 students, says Worley. But for those lucky 16 who go, the trip is paid for by the USO.
