SUNDAY NIGHT CONCERT
DISAPPOINTED CROWD NO APPEARANCE OF STARS Disappointed at the non-appearance of stars from the American Marcus Show Company, the capacity audience at the Wanganui Highland Pipe Band's concert last night at the Majestic Theatre nevertheless sportingly accepted the explanation tendered on behalf of the organisation. The programme was filled gallantly by Mrs. G. W. Perrett, who was encored for her solos, Miss Joan Peters, who obliged with several Highland dances, and Miss Patterson, who proved a favourite with her elocutionary items. The band also played their test selection and several national airs. It is understood that a last-minute hitch with regard to the authority for J the Marcus Show stars’ appearance ’ accounted for the inability of the Pipe Band to carry out the advertised programme
