Neskaug, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Joyner, Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Ward and Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Alexander. The program included a color slide presentation of outstanding projects of the past year and this showing included the Shuford Athletic field at Owen High school which was last year a joint project of Swannanoa and Black Mountain, and also presented the Woman’s club of Swannanoa's establishment of a library and the PTA’s school improvement program, a recrea tion and playground project at the Swannanoa school. Another joint effort was that of Black Mountain and Swannanoa PTA’s in financing and otherwise aiding the music programs in the public schools. Also featured in the photo report presented by Ned Champion, sup ervisor of the "Finer Carolina” program, were other projects con ducted in Black Mountain this year, including a local picnic area and re-conditioning of the South ern Railway station. Suggestions tentatively advanced for consideration for next year's sponsorship in Black Mountain in cluded discussion of the need of playground equipment at the local school, a vocational training pro gram which could begin in the seventh grade for young people who might otherwise wish to with draw' from school, a program for older members of the community, and re-location of the library on street-level quarters.

(a24tfe) FOUR STAR IN SILO— From Page 1 a “young man who lives in th - spotlight”, defeating, and tryin l to help the brother and sister dc - feat, the "law of gravity” whic! i binds them to a drab, adventureles world. Miss Gonzales gave galvani; , inS reality to the mother wh . existed in this world, but wa t never really of it. Miss Hunter . Laura is a haunting, shadowy bu realistic vignette of a tragic’littl s figure hopelessly caught up in th r inadequacies of her own limit; e tions and environment. The tim e is in the “lightning” period of wa 'lme rind depression years. M s Williams, both as narrator and £ e son of the Wingfield family, reall k illuminated the “moments ( truth" and "candles of hope” author Williams sought to point up. The entire quartet of Silo Circle mem bers who appear this week give a consistently intelligent and sym pathetic portrayal of the four lives which seemed doomed to pass in a little world void of adventure and motion. Whether or not you find hap py ending for “The Glass Menag erie” is up to you. Tennessee Williams, as usual, has not dia grammed his denouement with def initive strokes. The pace of the current play is itself a good foil for the rapid-fire mood of previous offerings by the Silo group. The settings are, as usual, simple and effective. The “candle-lit, memory play” quality of the presentation is effectively limned in lighting effects, cos tumes. and properties. The effect of the whole might even be said to extend to the new painting ex hibition being offered at the play house in a one-man show by Black Mountain's James Heaton. (In fact, that is approximately what several play goers did say—in com ments which saw these paintings as almost in echo of the colorful, glass-like clarity achieved in the play itself.) Next week’s play is to provide further varied fare. It will be a mystery drama, "A Murder Has Been Arranged”. Look Who’s Here! Mr. and Mrs. Gordon L. Mar lowe of Swannanoa, have a daugh ter born July 19 in Memorial Mis sion hospital. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy i M.
