High School Pupils
To Sing Grand Opera

In one OF the biggest musical
attempts for high school students
ever tried in the west, the pupils
of the musical department of Sta
dunn high school will make their
bow tonight in Balfe's Bohemian
Girl"
The opera will be repeated Sat
urday night. All members of the
large class are from Stadium, with
the exception of Cleve Olsen, of
Lincoln Park high school, who
will sing Thaddeus.
The story of the Bohemian
Girl" starts with Thaddeus, a Pol
ish exile, seeking concealment
from the Austrian troops. He res
cues the infant daughter of Arm
helm from an Infatuated stag, and
as his reward is asked to a recep-
tion.
He refuses to drink to the
health of the emperor and escapes
with some gipsies.
Devilshoof, one of the gypsy
party, is imprisoned by the count,
but escapes, and steals the count s
daughter.
After Il years, Airline, ignorant
of her parentage, is happy with
the gipsie6. and is bethrothed to
Thaddeus. The gypsy queen is
angry at this, and swears to sep
arate them.
When a fair is in progress,
Florestine, the counts nephew, is
met by the gipsies, and they steal
a medallion from him, and the
queen hangs it around Arline's
neck.
Florestine has the girl arrested,
and when brought before the
count is recognized as his long lost
daughter.
After the true rank of Thad-
deus is made public, the couple
are happily married.
The 6-year-old daughter of
Prof. Ball takes the part of Airline
when six years old, and Dorothy
Wintermote sings the older Airline
part.
