The Hallelujah Trail benefit at Windsor Theatre in Houston features Burt Lancaster Lee Remick and Pamela Tiffin to raise funds for the Houston All City Symphony Drenes trip to Bayreuth Germany this summer. Three Baytown students Rodney Celk Mary Ann Cooky Childers Elise are among orchestra members invited to perform at Wagner Festival in early August. Nearly all funds come from Houston area organizations and individuals. The film follows a whiskey laden wagon train attacked by temperance markers and Indians en route to Denver in 1887 with Lancaster as a cavalry colonel and Remick leading the temperance marchers. Director John Sturges also known for Bad Day at Black Rock The Great Escape and Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
