Among them will be Minnie Pearl- Roy Acuff, T. Texas Tyler, Dot and smoky, the Smoky Mountain Boys and other top entertainers who have entranced music lovers in all parts of the nation. Minnie Pearl, the inimitable story teller, has been billed as the top attraction. She will tell of people she knew as a girl in Centcrville, Tenn. A 14-year vet eran of Grand Ole Opry, Minnie Pearl twice has loured Europe entertaining members of the armed forces. Perhaps as well known as Min nie Pearl is Roy Acuff, who is not only a talented musician but also a gifted writer of several plain tive hit tunes. Acuff, a native of Tennessee, grew up determined to play pro ball for the Yankees. But he got a sunstroke, and learned to play the fiddle instead. Thus armed, he ran for governor of Tennessee on the Republican ticket. He lost. Acuff is widely acclaimed for his "Great Speckled Bird," "Pre cious Jewel," "Wabash Cannon Ball," and "Sweeter Than Flow ers." He is also the author of "Crash on the Highway," a tune that has not been heard so much lately, Comic relief will be provided by Lonnie Wilson, better known as "Pap," who heads up the jug band. Pete Kirby will also pro vide laughs as "Bashful Brother Oswald." The serious side will be pre sented by T. Texas Tyler, whose songs, such as "Remember Me, "Beautiful Life," "I Love You Because," and "Beautiful Morn ing Glory" have become smash hits. He is also the author of the very sad "Dad Gave My Dog Away," and the deeply religious "Deck of Cards." ,V.t . f J. ,.3 . , MINNIE PEARL Cominff to Mac Court Tuesday PICTURE PREVIEWS First Run Feature Times SUNDAY (Subject to chnnge) MrnONALD Beneath the 12.Mile Reef. 1:00, 3:15, 5:35, 755. 10:15.
