The Stadium season begins June 23 under Vladimir Golschmann with Albert Spalding as soloist performing Brahms violin concerto. Lily Pons appears June 27 under Golschmann. The first summer opera Salome runs June 30 and July 1 conducted by Alexander Smallens with Erica Darba in the lead.
Letters from Ruth Elaine Insche Valma Nylund and others challenge the 1937 Mortarboard portrayal of Junior Prom. They praise the committee’s effort, dispute claims of discord over price, and defend the event as successful, well priced, and memorable.
