The Lake Junaluska News VOL. 1 NO. 2 LAKE JUNALUSKA, NORTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, JUNE 1 ,! I Famous Avon Play ers To Give Plays At Lake This Week "Merchant of Venice" and "Oth ello" Will He Presented At Lake Junaluska Much interest is being shown in the announcement of the Shakespear ean Players on Friday and Saturday nights. The Merchant of Venice will be presented on Friday night and Othello on the following night. The management feels much elated over sceuring these players and feels that these nights of entertainment will be among the best of the season. The Avon players are of national reputation, and coming from New York City bring the best of the le gitimate stage. Joseph Selman, di rector of the Avon Players has many years been prominent in the caste of New York successes. As a stage director he has been most successful in securing the best results from his artists. Recently several companies have appeared presenting Shakes- pea re in one drab back drop, in which all scenes are played. This is not the method of the Avon Players. We believe that the Tolor and ro mance of ttee plays can be fully appreciated only when the characters are seen in the costumes and settings i in which they might have lived. In j addition to many elaborate and beau tiful sets, the Avon Players carry much modern lighting: equipment. The value of lighting effects in creating the mood and atmosphere of a scene is inestimable. There are fourteen men and women in the cast and each is an artist, We congratulate Juna luska on securing this entertainment.

Box 664 195 Are Enrolled At Duke Summer School Letter To The Editor Probably one of the best barome ters of the continued increase in the attendance at Lake Junaluska is that reflected in the Junaluska Summer School, affiliated with Duke Univer sity. Under the very capable and efficient direction of Dr. Paul N. Garber the summer school enrollment has in creased more than fifty per cent. In 1934, the fi:tst year of Dr. Gar ber's administration, there were 127 students enrolled. In 1935 the en rollment had increased to 159 and the number of student now attending the Junaluska Summer School is 195. With enlarged curricula the possi bilities for this school are almost un- limited, and we do not feel it amiss to Bishop Gribbin To Preach At The Lake Sunday morning at eleven o'clock Bishop Robert E. Gribbin, Bishop of the Western North Carolina Diocese of the Episcopal church will preach. Bishop Gribbin is one of the outstand ing speakers of the South, and will bring a great message to our people. Sunday night at eight o'clock, our own Dr. R. S. Truesdale, will preach. Dr. Truesdale has been pastor of the First Methodist church at Waynes ville for the past year and need no introduction to people in this section. Each of his sermons is a challenge.
