Fifty-four girls tryout for parts in the Lincoln High School opera "Of Men and Models," an original musical comedy directed by student LeRoy (Lee) Hale. The top ten contestants in the pictured "Poise, Posture and Personality" contest on February 21, 1941 will be chosen to play models in the production. Lincoln students wrote the music and lyrics for 21 original songs. The show premiered in Tacoma on May 8, 9 and 10. Hale became music director for "The Dean Martin Show" during its television run from 1965-74. (Lincolnian, 1941, pp. 25, 83).
