Lecture course appeal wanes as ticket sales lag
Only forty tickets sold for the lecture course with sixty more needed within a day to save the event. Mr. Wilson urges prompt replies on whether you will take tickets and attend. Attractions are long-standing, first class, with no failures in prior Washington showcases. Eight entertainments cost $200, or 25 cents per evening with flexible use of season tickets. The course would run from November to April with all evenings usable as desired. The Graham hosts The Long Company in Her Mother's opening night with the full Opera House Orchestra led by Miss Benson.
