Ek EE --_. fi a --_. -- mn » SR ei ----- 8 - BA RR June 11, 1927 WINNETKA: TALK ANNOUNCE SEAT SALE PLANS FOR RAVINIA Box-office to Be Opened to Gen- eral Public for First Week's Operas June 18 Seats for the first week of the new season of Ravinia opera and concerts which opens Saturday night, June 25, will be placed on sale for the general public at the box-office at Ravinia, Saturday morning, June 18. Mail or- ders will be received in the meantime and prospective purchasers who de- sire to make reservations by mail at this time should address The Ravinia company, 36 S. State street, Chicago. It is necessary to advise the public that for the opening performance of the season, Saturday night, June 25, the guarantors have the first call for tickets and until these have been served it is impossible to determine what seats will be available for gen- eral sale. If mail orders cannot be filled, the money will be refunded. For the last two weeks Louis Eck- stein has been deluged with inquiries from those who expect to attend the performances at Ravinia this season, and many questions have been asked. For the benefit of these inquirers he has issued a statement setting forth the information that is in demand. The Ravinia box-office, Mr. Eckstein explains, will be open every day during the season, including Sundays, from 9:30 o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock at night. Residents of those towns from Evanston to Milwaukee may secure telephone connections with the Ravinia box-office by calling High- land Park 2727. This is a double line, thereby preventing congestion as much as possible. Seats so reserved, however, must be taken up by 10:3 o'clock the follow- ing morning, or check sent to The Ravinia company, Ravinia, Ill, to reach the box-office by that time, and tickets will be mailed or held, as may be desired. If reservations are made on the day of the performance for which they are desired, the tickets must be paid for at the box-office be- fore 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Use Deposit Plan For the benefit of those who desire to order tickets in advance, and who find it more convenient to have them held until called for, an arrangement which has been entirely satisfactory in the past will be in vogue again this vear. Under this plan those desiring such accommodations, will make a de- posit of $20, for which a receipt wil be given. Seats ordered in advance will then be held until called for at the box- office, but must bep aid for at that time to leave the total amount of the de- posit intact. There can be no returns, cancela- tions or exchanges, nor may depositors transfer their rights for the use of others, under this plan. When tickets so ordered are not called for, they will be charged to the depositor. These deposits may be made after June 18 at the Ravinia box-office, or may be made now by mail addressed to The Ravinia company, 36 S. State street, Chicago. The deposits will be return- ed at the end of the season in Sep- tember. In addition to the splendid transpor- tation facilities it enjoys, Ravinia has always been a paradise for motorists, the roads from every direction stretch- through the most beautiful portions of the north shore. As a convenience to the thousands who arrive by motor car, two extensive parking spaces are maintained, one at the Sheridan road entrance, and the other at the Green Bay road entrance. These are adequate in every way. There are ample box-office accom- modations at delivery on the evening of the formance of tickets which have been ordered by mail or telephone, it is ex- plained. ENTERS BUSINESS FIELD E. P. Siegel resigned his position as forwarding clerk at the Winnetka post- office the. first of the month, to go into the ice cream business in Hubbard Woods.
