4 —Port Orford News, Thursday, April 3, 1969 Students Create Pictures Musical Comedy Being Rehearsed The students of Pacific High School are currently rehearsing "Where Is The Mayor?” , an hilarious new musical comedy created by Mary Lacey, well- known television writer, and Paul Weirick, a leading com poser-arranger. Hie story concerns a mayor who conveniently disappears when asked to sign a contract for a new highway that seems to go nowhere. But as the story unfolds, in fast-moving dialogue and swinging melodies, it Is revealed that the highway does go somewhere and it tells where the mayor goes too. Hie production will be pre sented on April 17, 18 and 19 and those attending “ Where Is Hie Mayor?” which has all the qualities of a Broadway show, will be talking about It and humming the catchy tunes for months to come.
