This image is a photograph used in the book Auburn, a Pictorial History of the Loveliest Village by Mickey Logue and Jack Simms, 3rd edition, 2013, depicting the history of the city and the University. From page 196: Street dances in Ross Square behind Samford Hall were a Saturday night fixture at Auburn during the summer in the early and mid-1940s. Auburn High School senior-to-be Gene Hurt and Hugh Williams, left, a first-quarter API freshman from Auburn, are shown cuttin' a rug en route to winning the jitterbug contest at this dance of August 4, 1945. ... Music for the street dances usually was recorded, but Zombie Lauderdale's Auburn Collegians and vocalist LaHolme McClendon performed for this one. Photo source: Auburn University Archives. |
