Name Chosen For Outdoor Drama The outdoor drama which will open in June 1966 at a site near Columbia will be called “Our Own Free Land,” according to Dr. Kermit Hunter, the author of the play. '/ The drama, dealing with South Carolina’s part in the Revolu tionary War from 1776 to 1783, is being financed principally by contributions from citizens and businesses throughout South Carolina. The state legislature appropriated $90,000 contingent upon the Palmetto Outdoor His torical Drama Association rais ing $190,000. A fund-raising drive is pres ently underway. This will be cli maxed by an hour-long statewide television show to be put on early in December. Time for the pro gram, talent, and everything else necessary for the show is being contributed by the T Vsta tions and those who will take part. In addition to interesting film clips and appearances by South Carolinians from all over the state. Dr. Hunter will appear on the show. “The prospect of having our children see our magnificent his tory as a living legend is the paramount force behind the suc cess of our drive,” according to W. Frank Harden, state cam paign director. “Those of us who value freedom and a free Ameri ca will be doing our part to honor those early South Carolinians who made it free. Those of us who are proud of South Carolina, whether we’re native born or not, will be doing our part to show our proud heritage to visitors to our state via this magnificent drama,” Harden continued “And those of us who want our children to have the Job oppor tunities they’ll need so they can stay in South Carolina to work will be doing our part to build up our state’s economy by pro moting tourism here through “Our Own Free Land.” Thousands of citizens all over the state are working on fund raising for the drama so that by % December 31 the required goal of $150,000 will have been col lected. Interest in things his- trocial is much on the increase. Last summer, vacationing Amer icans visited historical sites and outdoor dramas in numbers greater than all of those who attended all major and minor league baseball games in the en tire nation. “We’re much encouraged,” Mr. Harden said, “by the num ber of families who contact us to tell us of the thrill they ex perienced when they attended other outdoor dramas and how much they’re louring seeing our ver^ own drama.” Interested citisens who like to help in the last of the fund-raising effort am ed to write Box 479, Columbia, and volunteer their services. Names will be given to county chairmen throughout the state. Those wishing to contribute are asked to make their checks pay able to the Palmetto Outdoor Historical Drama Association and send them to Box 479, Co lumbia. All contributkns am tax- deductible.
