sion.
The commission is made up Of Com
modore Louis d. Beaumont, millionaire

This all-around-the-worl derby will

the contestants to touch at the prin-
cipal cities of each country over which
they are to fly. Either dirigibles or

ants and the two t~ransoceanic flights
are expected to afford a Homerie DEM
! o~nstration Of the relative capabilities
Of the lighter than-air and the heavier
| than-air craft. In crossing the Allan
| tic the contestants will have the al
tentative of two routes, either going by
way of st. Johns, as Commander Reed
did, or by way Of Greenland and Ice7
land, a route said to be Just as difficult
to navigate. Crossing the Pacific oon-
| testants may choose to fly from Toxic
| to Alaska: from Alaska to Vancouver,
b. G.: thence to Seattle and San Franz
| cisco, or from Toxic to Kamchatka,
across Behring strait to Alaska. Be-
| cause of the tremendous distance ia
be covered contestants will be PEE
mitted to use as many different ma
| chimes as needed,
The promoters hope to be able to
| start the derby in November.

One of the biggest musical events of
the seasons to Memphis people and
those in this section who come here to
hear the great artists will be the APP
pearance of Amelia GALL -Curci, the
famous italian coloratura soprano,
whose appearance at a performance of
years AGO made the biggest hit in mod
ern times. This famous woman, whose
attractions OF voice have caused almost
countless columns TO be written since
she made her American debut, is one of
the musical course being offered by An
gelo and Joseph Cortese. Galli-Curci
Is the one big star, but there are
others who shine almost as resplend-
emily, including Frances Aida, Charles
Hackett, Albert Spalding and Rudolph
Ganz.
Indicating something OF the ovation
received by Galli-Curci when she made
her initial appearance In Chicago Is the
following excerpt from a notice writ
ten by a prominent critic:
beginning at three minutes past 10
o'clock, and continuing for l6 minutes
thereafter. there was the most beau
tiful singing by her that had been
heard since last she sang the role. or
will be until she appears again In the
part. For its equal the elder contingent
OF opera.goers will have to become
reminiscent over a generation or so
back. I,
This was the scene wherein Lucy
goes mad to the gentle ~pleadings Of the
flute. Nine. Cali urci's voice is not
an enormous one. There are at least a
dozen members OF the Chicago Opera
association who csl shout more Justify
than she. None OF them. or the COM
bined group, could succeed in drown
ing her out, for her voice is Of that
perfect purity that floats clearly out
over a tumult and makes any other
voice or any instrument sound coarse
By comparison"
