still a Territory. Organized and
directed by a group of fifteen com
munities, its aim is to bring fine
music, performed by artists of na
tional and international fame, to
every community in the North.
An especially talented and var
ied group of artists will make
their appearance here. The fall
season will bring Richard Dyer
Bennet, America’s beloved folk
singer in October; and in Novem
ber, Regis Pasquier, 14-year-old
French violin prodigy. The spring
portion of the program will intro
duce to Kodiak, Michi North, gifted
Alaskan pianist, in February, with

Gleason.
Friday and Saturday
The first reliably accurate por
trait of the fairest lady of legend
is unveiled in Walt Disney’s re
splendent $6,000,000 animation fea
ture, “Sleeping Beauty.”
Said to be the supreme achieve
ment in the wondrous art of ani
mation and the Disney method of
cinematic story telling, the film
represents his greatest undertak
ing in entertainment. Some 300
artists worked on it through six
years.
Breathtaking elegance was sup
plied by new implements of fan
tasy—the big Technirama screen,
revised color techniques, and the
fidelities of improved sound for
the Tchaikovsky Sleeping Beauty
Ballet music.
The courtship of the lovely Prin
cess Aurora, who believes herself
a peasant maid, by the valiant
Prince Phillip brings poetic beauty
to animation—with a modern treat
ment.
Other fascinating individual
characters are Maleficent, the
witch-queen of Evil, and her brood
of sub-human orderlies; and the
three Good Fairies, Flora, Fauna
and Merrywheather.
