Park Director
Offers Jobs
For Summer
Students have many summer activities
available to them and the possibility of
summer jobs, says Leonard Ehrler, director
of the park and recreation department for
the City of Denton.
The Community Orchestra and Com-
munity Teen Theatre under the department
are in need of directors, said Ehrler, and
these positions can be filled by any inter-
ested, upperclass speech and drama or
music major. Students wishing to apply lor
these positions may contact him at the
Community Building.
The Park and Recreation Department
also offers many summer activities of in-
terest to college students. A softball pro-
gram offers competitive sport for children
and adults, said Ehrler. The teams meet
five nights a week at Denia Park, west
diamond, at Massey and Bernard streets.
Free tennis lessons are offered on Tues-
days and Thursdays from 8:30 to 11 a.m.
on the North Texas courts. Registration for
a second session of the "Learn to Swim"
program is scheduled through July 3.
Lessons are four weeks long and are offered
both to children and adults. Adult classes
meet Monday and Thursday nights at 8 at
the Civic Center Pool. For the tumbler and
gymnast, classes meet from 8 to 9 p.m. on
Thursdays in the Community Building.
Free bowling lessons are offered from 10 to
11:30 a.m. every Wednesday at the Holiday
Lanes bowling alley.
In the area of arts and crafts, there will be
ceramics, leather tooling, copper tooling,
plaster of paris, decoupage and painting and
drawing. The time and place for classes is to
be arranged.
Registration for classes may be made in
the Community Building.
All activities are coordinated by Robert
Swafford, superintendent of recreation, and
the program continues on a year-round
basis.
Most summer programs are under stu-
dent instruction and those activities
geared to college students are designed for
students' leisure time apart from university
functions, said Ehrler.

Tenor Sings Lead in Opera
Arley Reece, a former student of Eugene
Conley, resident tenor at North Texas, re-
cently made an appearance with the Phila-
delphia Lyric Opera Company singing the
tenor lead "Rodolfo" in Puccini's "La
Boheme."
Reece appeared in "La Boheme" on June
17, 22 and 24. He made his Philadelphia
debut singing Mascagni's "Cavalleria
Rusticana" in April.
His Carnegie Hall debut was on March
26 with the American Opera Society.
Reece sang the leading tenor role of "As-
sad" in Goldmark's "Queen of Sheba."
Reece will return to New York City later
this year for more vocal study backed by the
Corbctt Foundation. He has appeared in
leading tenor roles in Bizet's "Carmen,"
Puccini's "Tosca," and "La Forza del
Destino" and "11 Trovatore" by Verdi.

Lions, Tigers Roar—It's Circus Time
The circus is coming! Or, to be more pre
cise, the circus is here. The 100th Anniver-
sary Fdition of Ringling Brothers and
Barnum & Bailey Circus will play matinee
and evening performances in Will Rogers
Memorial Coliseum through Monday.
After that, it will move to Dallas.
The show has been termed "the most
fantastic circus extravaganza ever dreamed
of." The 100th Anniversary Edition fea-
tures highlights of the circus' history, and
brings back many of the famous acts of the
circus' past.
Other entertainment of interest in the
area includes the Longhoiri Jazz Festival
in Dallas Memorial Auditorium July 17.
Some of the stars who will be in town for
this fifth anniversary show include Joe
Morello, drummer with Dave Brubeck
Quartet, soul singer Roberta Flack, the
Cannonball Adderly Quintet, pianist Les
McCann, tenor saxophonist Eddie Harris
and Jazz, organist Jimmy Smith.
Another entertainer in town this week is
Ray Charles. Charles and his 16 piece band
will give a concert in the Convention Center
Theater Friday at 8:30 p.m. in Fort Worth.
For those who enjoy a good musical,
Juliet Prowse will be featured in "Mame"
at the Dallas Slate Fair Music Hall through
Sunday, July 5. Miss Prowse's performance
is reported to be as good as that of Angela
Lansbury in the Broadway production of
the musical.
On the dinner theater circuit, the effer-
vescent Ruta Lee is currently featured at
Theater Groups To Present
Angels/ Children's Plays
"My Three Angels," a comedy about
convicts and Christmas, and three pro-
ductions aimed at children will make up the
theater activities on campus this summer
The Sam and Bella Spewack play "My
Three Angels" deals with three convicts
who are invited to share the Christmas
holidays with a French storekeeper and his
family.
The comedy, according to William Snare
of the speech and drama faculty, offers
some "delightful" characterizations of the
three expert con Enen and other characters
and features some unusual comic twists.
The play will be directed by Dr. Stanley
K. Hamilton of the speech and drama fac-
ulty and will run July 7-9.
Children's Theater productions, which
will be directed by Dr. E. Robert Black of
the speech and drama faculty, have been
slated for Aug. 8-11
Plays scheduled with the younger audi-
ence in mind will be "Sleeping Beauty,"
"Pecos Bill and the Indians" and "The
Little Blue Horse."
"Sleeping Beauty" was presented during
the 1970 spring semester and received such
enthusiastic acceptance, playing to full
houses, said Dr. Black, that it is being re-
vived for summer presentation.
"Pecos Bill and the Indians" is a musical
version of the tales about the legendary
hero Pecos Bill. It is the work of NT grad-
uate Bill Overton and was originally done as
his master's thesis. It was presented pre-
viously in the Garland public schools, said
Dr Black.
Completing the children's productions
will be another musical, a fantasy for small
children by an Argentine playwright. "The
Little Blue Horse" was originally written in
Portuguese, then translated into French and
then finally into English.
Children's Theater will be operated this
summer as a repertory company, Dr. Black
said. The same group of players will
perform all three plays, using basically the
same costumes and scenery with minor
changes to suit the individual play, he ex-
plaEned.
"Several colleges have been using reper-
tory theater groups recently," the director
said, "an i this will be a pilot study in reper-
tory theater at NTSU."
the Fort Worth Windmill Theatre produc-
tion of "PelerPat". Her performance while
good, is overshadowed by area newcomer
Judd Hirsch's portrayal of the hypochon-
driacal paperback writer, Peter Prince.
On the local level, Larry Hopp, graduate
student from Pampa, is having a showing
of 26 of his works in the Main Art Gallery
in the Art Building through Friday after-
noon. Oils, drawings, air brush and collages
are part of Hopp's thesis for his Ph.D. in
art.
Record albums of
the spring Lab Band
and combo concerts
are now available
from the Lab Band
Office of the School
of Music. The album
covers reflect the l
O'Clock Lab Band's
tour of Germany and
Switzerland, with the
words "Lab!" blaring
from the Alps. The Lab Band was the
"official big band" of the Montreux,
Switzerland, International Jazz Festival
last weekend.
KNTU-FM is back on the air. The
campus radio station (found at 88.5 of the
FM dial) has been off the air during the
break following spring semester and regis-
tration for summer session. The station is
on the air from noon to 6 p.m. Monday
through Friday.
Several interesting movies are showing
this weekend. "Z," an Academy Award
nominee, is showing at the Campus,
while "Suppose They Gave A War and
Nobody Came" is at the ABC Cinema.
"Cherry, Harry &. Raquei," another of
Russ Meyer's creations, is at the Fine Arts.
