intervening seasons have seen her
participate in a variety of roles
as a herald, a milkmaid dancer and
a colonist, plus playing Joyce Ar
chard, one of the feminine speak
ing parts, for the past five years,
and understanding Eleanor Dare.
She was also the first Roanoke

Since then, too, she has obtained
her degree as a voice major from
Greensboro College, and married
Harry Thomas, native of Mer-
chantville, N. j., and former resi-
dent of Philadelphia, who first
joined "The Lost Colony" company
as a program salesman in 1910.
1t is on the technical side that
he has made his greatest contri-
button to "The Lost Colony.
Following World War II, when
he was an officer in the U. S.
Naval Reserve, Thomas rejoined
''The Lost Colony" as a sound
technician, and functioned as such
until 1851. He was absent from
the colony that season while he
obtained his masters degree in
education.
Back on the company roster
again in 1852, he worked as as
sistant lighting director each sum-
mer through 1856, and for the last
two seasons has been in charge of
the lighting crew.

credit six-year stint as minister

as two years as soprano soloist at

She has also participated in sacred
music presentations over WBBB
in Burlington, and on a weekly
15-minute television program fea-
turing popular and semi-classical
music from Greensboro's WFMY-
Tv.
Being closer to Roanoke Island
and having their own place near

that prompted the Thomases TO
resign their teaching posts in Bur
