Notes |
Carol McGurk was a high school student at Lexington Catholic High School in Lexington in 1954 when she joined a local chapter of the Eddie Fisher fan club known as the "Cokettes." The members wore their hand made uniform of pink skirt and white blouse about once a week in the first month of school, before students at LC had to wear their wool uniforms. Fisher was a pop singer with a "clean" image. |
