My Friend From India Reproduced At Athena For Second Time
The popular amateur play My Friend From India was staged a second time in Athena before a full opera house audience. Directed by Harry Du Puy, the cast delivered professional level performances and the press hopes local dramatic groups will form to bring more plays. Meanwhile Grandma King’s health declines and relatives converge from Spokane Elgin Tone and Peacheton. Children’s Day in the Christian church shifts to 11 am and an evening local option rally follows. A mass meeting of Athena citizens is set for June 2 2004 to discuss a July 4 celebration in the city hall.
