Push-Cart Derby

From Mack Hughes, here are some pictures of some innocent merry-making at the University of Kentucky. These are dated from 1954-55.

Interlochen

Interlochen, Michigan has a national music camp where young musicians study symphonic music for eight weeks each summer. These photos by Arthur Siegel are from 1942; Interlochen Center for the Arts is still going strong today. Unfortunately this set only shows the campers engaged in various recreational activities; the ones of them actually playing music are too lo-res.
