I lived in Iraan in 1951 & '52. The 6th Grade graduation was held in a large auditorium where I sang "The Holy City" after encouragement from the First Baptist Church pastor. Our class had a boy fiddle player, too.
I am interested in any filming ( 8mm, 16mm ) that anyone could share of that event.
I remember one classmate, Joe Blumintritt?
My father, Archie Vice, was an oil field worker.
My mom, Anna Vice, was active at First Baptist.

You must be about the same age as my sister, Barbara. Was the boy fiddle player by any chance Jimmy Seals? He played with my brother and sister and my mother used to watch him sometimes. He later became Seals of Seals@Crofts in the '70's. I am sure you have heard of "Summer Breeze",etc. My father worked for Marathon Oil Company. I think Joe Blumintritt was in my sister's class. My aunt played the piano and organ for the Baptist church. Did the boy play the fiddle at this event? Chances are that there are films of this around. My aunt was known to carry around her movie camera with her everywhere she went. I could ask my cousins if they might have anything like that. If not,I am pretty sure someone somewhere does. There should be lots of ways to get in touch with people who were present for this occasion.

Daily Horoscope for December 4

Aries

Be very wary about mixing love and money today, because they could curdle and leave a nasty taste in your mouth. Someone might rip you off, or so it seems to you. And 'seems' is the operative word because, with the Moon in sensitive Cancer, you're very subjective and emotional, strongly influenced by your feelings. There is also a chance that someone you trust is playing fast and loose with your heart, although you won't be certain of that just yet.
