Show Peterson Hall For Amusment Place With a view of having adequate room for the staging of plays and entertainments en-tertainments to be given by the High school and for the giving of such entertainments en-tertainments that require a stage, the faculty of the Gunnison High school, aided by the school board, has leased Peterson hall for the present pres-ent school year. A temporary stage has been Installed and opera chairs capable of seating more than 200 have been provided and the Montague Mon-tague Light Opera Singers initiated the "new theatre" last Tuesday night. Those having the hall in charge are planning on making the showhouse a permanent feature for the winter ?nonths and it is more than likely that all of the Lyceum course numbers num-bers will lie given there. Another plan which is being considered con-sidered is the fitting of the place with a motion picture paraphernalia. The desire for pictures of the educational class has been strongly expressed and It is believed that with this innovation innova-tion once or twice a week would be a drawing card. A portable stage will be fixed up and drappings for staging will be purchased and the hall will be so arranged ar-ranged that it can be used for dances, lectures and other modes of amusement. |
