YEAR FINANCIAL SUCCESS Ravinia park's most brilliant and successful season in the history of the beautiful north shore outdoor social center, closed Sunday night In a blase ol glory. A crowd estimated at 6,000 persons attended the closing program and lamented the fact that the season of splendid entertainment was to close until next summer. Members of the park organization, who have straggled through so many seasons of doubt and fear and have faced so often what would have been defeat to those less courageous, are jubilant over the suc- cess of the present season. Eckstein Grateful. "For the first time," said Louis Eck- stein, chairman of the executive com- mittee, who has served the Interests of the organization with such Inde- fatigable purpose, "the park is a big financial success, and we are more than grateful to everybody who has helped to make it so. The future looks bright and the organisation Is already planning far greater things than it has yet attempted. This is Just the beginning." The north shore of Chicago, with its miles of well to do suburbs and its thousands of homes of Chicago's most prominent citizens, is fortunate, in- deed, to have in Its midst such a place of entertainment. On the other hand it gives to Ravinia park an audience who appreciate the best, and encour- ages the management to provide an entertainment far superior to that offered by most summer parks. Season's Offerings Rich. , The present season has been rich in Its offerings. First tnere has been the Chicago Symphony orchestra through- out the entire^ season, with its two programs dailyâ€"rain or shineâ€"and by the way, fortunately it has been most* ly "shine" this season. In the begin- ning Frederick Stock himself directed these programs, then Attilio Parelli took his place. Mr. Parelli has had the double burden of conducting both orchestra and opera, as well as the Ruth St. Denis dances. The part of this charming dancer in the success, of the season has been great, end she, through her excellent artistry and her lovely personality, has won hundreds of friends on the north shore. As to the opera, it would be hard to find an aggregation of .more serious and painstaking artists than that which has made the opera so weU worth while during the present sea- son. The opera cast as it stood through the season include two superb sopranos of the Chicago grand opera, Jennie Dufau of coloratura roles and Lois Ewell of the New Century com- pany In dramatic roles. The contralto was Florence Mulford, an artist of the first order, steeped in the traditions of the Metropolitan opera house of "New York. ' '.':Q>l,;:'p3" SamolofPs Work Notable. ,Lenoid Samoloff, the robust tenor of of the season and the first who has ever been able to-stand the heavy de- mands of the open air and nightly par* formances without a breakdown.

He is also a member of the New Century Opera company.
