The .if'" program, presented twice pre- C viously to enthusiastic audiences at Fort Leonard Wood, will appear at 7 p.m. Monday and Tuesday at Hilltopper Football Stadium. The cast of "Sing Out" will be staying at Ft. Wood for six days. A busy schedule is planned for them during that time. They will present four performances of their program, attend several dinners, attend a party held in their honor by local teenagers Monday evening at the Teen Club, as well as make full use of the entertainment facili- ties on post.
