Presented by the Washakie Museum & Cultural Center October 27-28, 2017

The world’s most beloved musical...When a postulant proves too high-spirited for the

religious life, she is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven children of a

widowed naval Captain. Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her

generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of the stern Captain, and they marry.

Upon returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been invaded by the

Nazis, who demand the Captain's immediate service in their navy. The family's escape

over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of World War II provides one of the most thrilling and inspirational finales

ever presented in the theatre. The motion picture version remains the most popular movie musical of all time. Page 2

About Sherry: A chance enrollment in a one-day pastel class in 2012 was all it took to create in me a passion and a purpose

upon my retirement as a Presbyterian minister. I’ve taken several workshops since then and exhibited and sold my work in several venues. I relish the absorbing and stimulating (and always terrifying) feelings I get as I approach a blank sheet of sanded paper! I believe everyone has an “artist” inside of them – the joy is encouraging it to come out and then appreciating every creative gift that gets expressed…and always, always having fun! I teach a weekly art class at the local Senior Center.

I identify with the colorist/fauvist tradition with their use of vibrant colors and intense, color-drenched paintings. The paintings look true to color, but are “brighter than real life, imparting a magical feeling that the world is a richer, more beautiful place than we can see in our day-to-day lives.” And I work in soft pastels – these give me all the color intensity I want plus the freedom to start and stop at-will with little cleanup, no drying time and easy portability en plein air.

Bring your family and friends to see this interesting summer exhibit. Enthusiastically reviewed at the opening reception, this exhibit

offers a glimpse of Wyoming life that has disappeared, leaving behind few footprints of these early Big Horn Basin settlements.

Travel back to the once bustling mine settlements of the late 1800s such as Kirwin, Gebo, and Lost Cabin, and Arland, one of

Wyoming’s roughest towns. Explore the ancient history of Wyoming’s earliest Medicine Wheel residents, as well as the more

recent history of Japanese Americans relocated to Heart Mountain in the early 1940s. Examine the ghost-like imprints these

abandoned locations left behind through artifacts, oral histories, newspaper articles, and photographs—all of which we have

woven together and displayed with visuals and text panels. Be sure to check out the details of the infamous murder of Edna and

Tom Jenkins in 1911 at Lost Cabin and cast your vote as to the identity of the culprit!

Excerpts from Aileen Kerby’s Oral History

Kerby Theater

LYNN: Lynn Krei

Date of Interview: October 26, 1988

Lloyd's father had bought the old Elk Theater in Worland because Fox Theater was moving into Sheridan. Fox would probably run their small theater out of business and Lloyd’s dad had looked around for a theater to buy.

Aileen was 17 and Lloyd was 18 when they moved to Worland in 1926. Lloyd’s father moved here and was in business with them at the Elk Theater on the north side of Big Horn Avenue in the 600 block until 1938.

LYNN: Tell us about the structure of the theater. What was it like?

AILEEN: The old one– well, it was rather small. I think about 200 seats and, of course, that wasn't considered small at that time.

LYNN: That was about the time that the “talkies” came in?

AILEEN: The “talkies” came in about– Carol was born in 1928 and in the spring I went home to visit while they were putting in talking pictures here. The first ones were on great big records. That system didn't work and in about 2 or 3 months they had to put in a different one.

LYNN: What were the prices of admission in those days?

AILEEN: I think probably about 15 cents. It might have been 25 cents and 15 cents.

LYNN: Did they have any extra music?

AILEEN: A piano player. Yes.

LYNN: Did they use the Elk Theater for any kind of vaudeville or that type of thing?

AILEEN: Yes. Occasionally. There were a few – I think it was comic things and magic shows.

LYNN: Was it Saturday afternoon entertainment type of things?

AILEEN: No. That would be at night. There were matinees on Saturday and Sunday.

LYNN: Was the movie on every night?

AILEEN: About 4 changes a week. It was rather difficult because there was no daily paper here. So, Lloyd put out handbills advertising the different shows from house to house. They were what they called One Sheets. They're like posters today that were tacked here and there. - Mammoth News/Sept 2017

Aileen Kerby’s maternal grandparents came from New York state to Dakota Territory to Nebraska and then to Sheridan, Wyoming. Her grandfather was Charles DeLapp and her mother was Merle DeLapp. Her grandmother's name was Harriet B. White. She recollected that they came to Sheridan around 1900.

Her maternal grandfather, Charles DeLapp was a railroad engineer on the Burlington. He may have came with the railroad and he was here in Worland when the line was being built on down to Kirby.

LYNN: Now, when they were in Sheridan, what did they do for a living? Who owned the theater then?

AILEEN: I don't know that. In fact, I don't know whether there was a theater there when they came to Sheridan. Lloyd's father put in a theater about 1913.

LYNN: Okay. Tell us a little bit about Lloyd's parents. They went to Sheridan, too. Is that correct?

AILEEN: I don't know as much about them, of course. Lloyd's parents – his people came from Kentucky to Colorado and then his father, Thomas Kerby, came to Sheridan. His family is rather mixed up because Lloyd was adopted by his uncle and his own father had a big farm at Berthoud, Colorado. But his mother died when he was born and she made her husband promise if she died, he would give the baby to her brother, Thomas Kerby.

LYNN: Now when did they move to Sheridan?

AILEEN: They came in 1908. Lloyd was born in 1907 and Lloyd was a year old when they moved from Colorado. Lloyd's father, Tom Kerby, was president of the Colorado Mineworker's Union and he broke his leg and was injured and that's when he left that field of work and went to Sheridan and I believe he put in a pool hall to start with – for about 2 years. Then he put in the first theater. The Pastime. In fact, the next theater he owned in Sheridan was the Gem Theater.

Aileen was born on October 11, 1908 and raised in Sheridan. Both she and Lloyd went through school in Sheridan. They were married a couple of weeks after she graduated. Lloyd went to business school for a year after high school.

LYNN: Now, this was during the Depression years about 1929?

AILEEN: Yes. Lloyd's father owned 2 houses in Sheridan which we lived on the rent from. All 3 of us. And, of course, Carol was born in 1928 and theaters all around us had to close.

LYNN: Oh, I see. But the economy in Worland with the sugar beet factory was enough to keep it going?

AILEEN: Well, that and the fact that we didn't make any money. Period. We just lived on the rent from those houses in Sheridan and the theater took care of itself.

LYNN: Do you recall about incidents while you were still at the Elk Theater across the street? Were you in the middle of the bars?

AILEEN: Yes, we were. It didn't present a problem at all. When I went down, which I did every single night until I had my first child – sometimes I sold tickets if Lloyd's father wasn't there. If he was there, he bothered me. I used to go down the other side of the street until I was opposite the theater and cross. I think lots of people did that. But, of course, there was lots of parking space because you parked diagonally and actually, you know, the population of this town was not more than between 2500 and 3000. The day I came here on July 5 we stayed in Ten Sleep on the night of the 4th and came over here the 5th. The 4th of July was on Sunday – the big celebration was Monday in Ten Sleep – this town was deserted. There were 3 cars parked on that big main street and the Buick garage on the south side of Big Horn was the last building. I said, “I will stay here five years and then I will be ready to go home.” I was used to a larger place, you know, and lots of trees and, of course, there were no paved streets here. I thought it was horrible. I really did. After five years, I was plenty happy to stay.

LYNN: You moved across the street and did you build that building?

AILEEN: Yes. Lloyd's father bought the ground from Joe Hampton. The theater was built in 1937 and 1938. I don't remember exactly when it was started. I think it probably took about 8 months to build it. It was opened in the fall of 1938, in September. Our Tommy was born on August 4th at 7:30 and the contractor that built that theater died about an hour and a half after Tom was born. He had fallen from the scaffolding in the theater at the stage end - on his head. He died as a result of the accident. He fell two days before, but he died that night. So, the opening of the theater was not very joyous for our family.

LYNN: Did you have a big opening celebration?

AILEEN: Yes, we did. Not really a celebration but I think there are pictures at the theater downtown of all the flowers and things that were sent and were out in the lobby. The businessmen of Worland gave Grandpa a watch which I believe I have – unless I have given it to one of my grandchildren.

LYNN: The seating capacity was?

AILEEN: The new one was 600.

LYNN: This was at the end of the Depression, so people had more money to go. Right?

AILEEN: Yes.

Aileen’s daughter Carol was born October 15, 1928 and Joanne was born January 31, 1932 both in Dr. Gray's hospital. Joanne Tommy was born August the 4th, 1938 in Dr. Anderson's hospital which was up above the Veile Furniture store. Tommy Turner Kerby was lost in the crash of a Marine transport plane on September 21, 1960.

LYNN: So, Carol and Fred Faure are the present owners of the same property?

AILEEN: Yes. I turned the theaters over to them after Lloyd died. So, it's still in the family.

Lynn remembered during the later 50s when her children were little that they would get bread wrappers from Merz Bakery for admission to the theater. It showed how the economy of the town was affected by the buying of the bread for admission – and how the kids in those days, instead of being handed money by their folks, went around the neighborhood gathering up bread

wrappers to get into the theater. She said that Johnny Merz never refused anybody a bread wrapper if they came up short.

LYNN: How did World War II affect your lives?

AILEEN: It really did affect our lives because Lloyd was 36 years old. He was in the first group of fathers that were taken from Worland along with Howard McClellan and Don Harkins. Lloyd had ulcers and was classified 1AF and sent home. I think the ulcers were probably caused by worrying over what he was going to do, because his father had died during the spring of ‘42. I did not work at the show except occasionally to sell tickets. So, I spent one year learning the business because at that time film salesmen came here about once every three months and you bought your pictures through them. Then you had to go to Denver to book them. In later years, there was a professional buyer and booker in Denver which everybody used, so that eliminated all that. But, that was the big worry. His dad was ill and he knew that when they started drafting fathers he would be drafted and he didn't know how in the world I was going to manage it. We had finally decided that I would just run it until I couldn't run it anymore and then close it until he came back.
