McCall scJ.d after the first performance of HARVEY, the opening play of the season* In participation, audience appreciation and box-office receipts, the Theatre got off to a healthy stoxt. Approximately seventy-five people ( and three stage hounds) worked on this first production. This figure indicates, as HCT president, Jack Wilcox seys, the opportunity for creative activity that the Theatre offers during the suimer* If applause and after-show comments mean anything, audience reaction was en thusiastic. First-nighters applauded the professional looking stage set,,,the best he had ever seen on a summer theatre stage a member of Actors* Equity said.,and the sustained characterizations of the entire cast* HCT PATRONS PLEASE NOTE: On Thursday, July 11, at 8:30 P.h., in the theatre, the HCT Board is entertaining its patrons and their invited guests with the first special patron event of the season# A'; string ensemble from the Brevard Music Center will play this private concert.

All artists living or visiting in High lands are cordially invited to exhibit their work— originals only, no copies* We were anazed last year to find how many artists we have in Highlands, both professional and "Sunday painters”. This year we expect to have even more repre sented since a number of artists last year had not brought to Highlands any pictures to show. This year we hope they are all prepared; also, we have seen quite a few people sketching in ond around Higlrilands, so we hope to have some local scenes exhibited. Aside from raising a few dollars to support our Library, the main purpose of the exhibit is to offer all Highlands cTtists, both professional oJid amateur, an opportunity to show — and possibly sell — theri work. Last year our young est exhibitor was eleven yeoTS old; the oldest was well along in her eighties. The public ia aaaured of an interesting exhibit, well worth the admission charge of 50^ for adults. Children will be adrrdtted free* (Con’t on page 6 ) FOOD STORE / \ GROCERIES RICHELIEU-PREiyilER OLD TAVERN CHEESE COUNTRY CURED HAMS CHOICE MEATS REESE-CRESCA PEPPERIDGE - miOU) BREAD Ai^D ROLLS I i
