Scope and content
These ten young people dressed in period costumes, including a couple seated on a tandem bicycle, participated in a 15-minute skit entitled "Fifty Years Ago" during the Tuberculosis Association of Pierce County's 50th anniversary banquet held on March 30, 1960, at the New Yorker Cafe. They were junior board members of the association and wore clothing reminiscent of the kind worn in 1910, the year the association was formed in Pierce County. Pantomining in the skit were (in no particular order) Susan Warner of Lincoln High School, Carol Countryman of St. Leo's, Helen James of Franklin Pierce, Eva Lea Armstrong, Myron Thompson and Jerry Colorrosi of Orting and Pat Kimball, Diane McClintock, Argyle McDowell and Jim Smith of Fife. John B. Krilich, past president of the association, provided the skit's narration. (TNT 3-24-60, p. 8, TNT 3-31-60, A-4)
