Scope and content
Over 300 students at Franklin Elementary School, 3202 South 12th Street, took part in the musical pageant "The Spirit of America Speaks" on Friday evening November 15, 1940. Six of the students taking part in the pageant were: Kath Kindregan representing the pilgrims; Dorothy Beck, the Norwegians; Diane Metzker, the Dutch; Patricia Cowling, the Spirit of America; Gerald Wolf, the Spaniards and Donna Jean Moore, the Native Americans. The ambitious project consisted of three parts and looked at the history of the United States and the institutions and diverse cultures that shaped it. (T.Times 11/15/1940 p.9)
