Transcript

Family Theater presents Gene Ruth, Dan O'Hurlahy and Virginia Greg. The Mutual Network in cooperation with Family Theater presents Dan O'Hurlahy and Virginia Greg in Lancelot of the Lake. To introduce the drama, your hostess, Gene Ruth.

Thank you, Gene Baker. Family Theater's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives. If we are to win peace for ourselves, peace for our families and peace for the world.

Family theater urges you to pray. Pray together as a family. The greatest of writers in most lyrical of poets have sung the praises of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table. But the one knight who completely won the heart of the world was Serlan's A Lot of the Lake.

It's a diagon at the fool, Jester and King Arthur's cork. Yes, sir Jester, what one who is perhaps best qualified to tell the story of Sir Lancelot of the lake.
