  We present a redshift z=6.535 galaxy discovered by its Lyman alpha emission
in a 9180A narrowband image from the Large Area Lyman Alpha (LALA) survey. The
Ly-a line luminosity (1.1e43 erg/s) is among the largest known for star forming
galaxies at z=6.5. The line shows the distinct asymmetry that is characteristic
of high-redshift Ly-a. The 2 sigma lower bound on the observer-frame equivalent
width is > 530A. This is hard to reconcile with a neutral intergalactic medium
unless the Ly-a line is intrinsically strong and is emitted from its host
galaxy with an intrinsic Doppler shift of several hundred km/s. If the IGM is
ionized, it corresponds to a rest frame equivalent width > 40A after correcting
for Ly-a forest absorption.
  We also present complete spectroscopic followup of the remaining candidates
with line flux > 2e-17 erg/cm2/s in our 1200 square arcminute narrowband image.
These include another galaxy with a strong emission line at 9136A and no
detected continuum flux, which however is most likely an [OIII] source at
z=0.824 based on a weak detection of the [OIII] 4959A line.
