Dr. Earl Lehman's recent death drew our attention to this photo. It is an early 1950s-era Bluffton High School operetta. Lehman, in the front center, was the director.
We see many familar faces here. For example: Dick Boehr on drums, Ada May Oyer on bass, Wilma Jean Jorg on piano, and, yes, Sam Diller on the stage.
This is a Leland Gerber photo, taken obviously on a ladder, in the old BHS gym.
