"RigoIetto' at Polls.

! "Rigoletto" was presented by the
San Carlo Company last night a,
| Polls before an audience that, fol
| size and appreciation, testified to the
] splendid impression made by the or
of the Verdi score.
| This tragedy Of Italian love and
vengeance is one of the distinguishe ed
successes of the sen Carlo repertoire
and serves Signal1y to accent, music
ally and dramatically. the artistic ex-
cellence of the company, individually
and as d whole.
Gaetano Niviano gave to the title
role compelling portrayal of the
court clown, notably in the poignant
scene in which agonized uncertainty
as to his daughters fate causes him
to conceal his anguish under the
j antics of a buffoon. Josephine Luc-
cheese. as Gilda. the daughter. gave a
slrl1Sh and appealing Interpretation
of love and sacrifice: her voice, sweet
and buoyantly free of effort. winning
lnsistent applause in Caro- Nome, u
as Well as in concerted numbers, both
with Rigoletto and the Duke. Giu-
seppe Agostini repeated and more
than sustained his former prestige
! as the wicked Duke of Mantua; his
gay personality entirely explaining
the Don Juanish record of the origi-
nal noble who supplied history with
thrills before he was duplicated for
grand opera. His La Dome Mo-
bile" was given with joyous abandon
that captured an ovation, and moth
Ing could have exceeded the light

love to one woman while passing an
other who had given her life to save
his own.

Riasi repeated his role of Spara-
fucile with a perfection of voice and
! a nonchalant disregard of the honor
that is supposed to exist among
thieves and murderers which COM
manded admiration and "a thrill.

tors in east which contributed in
dividual tenseness to a tragedy that

and the fulfillment of an outraged
husbands curse.
Appreciation is due the San Carlo
Opera Company for the happy eXplo-
sion of the one-rime doctrine that d
very young woman cannot properly
sing the eNacting roles of grand
opera. owing to the years of study

at the piano.
The chorus work was excellent. the
attacks being true and exact and the
cut-offS effective. In the opening
chorus. the difficult fugue! And the
Glory was sung admirably. al
though it seemed that the bass and
tenor. particularly the bass. lacked the
, necessary volume. This however. may
have been due to the fact that all the
singers were on level. rather than
banked. the altos and sopranos acting
as a screen between the men and the
audience.
The work of the chorus was particu-
Iarly effective in For Unto Us Child
Is Born which is filled with difficult
runs and required much drilling to
produce the tlexibility shown.

wonderfully flexible. All her solos
We're well done and well received. Her
best number. perhaps. was in the
passage. Come Unto Him. which she
sang softly and with admirable legato
purity.
Miss Klink has voice of fine tone
and particularly pleasing in her deep
er notes. In her runs. and in the legato
of the passage HE Shall Feed His
Flock" she was especially fine.
Mr.. House has a lyric tenor. very
smooth and flexible. although a bit
lacking involumc. In his first aria.
Every Valley Shall Be Exalted" he
ran some very difficult passages with
remarkable ease and assurance.
Mr.. Patten is well known to Wash
| lngton audiences and gave the fine
performance expected of him. For a
i bass. he showed Il voice of unusual
fexibility, singing some of the more
fiorid passages at a very fast tempo.
His recitatives swere declaimed with
authority and the power of his voice
was sufficient to make his rendition
emphatic. His diction. as was that of
Miss kerns. was excellent

Creek Park and other public parks IN,
the District that persons lnutilating
trees or shrubbery within those pre-
cincts, during the Christmas holidays
or at any other time of the year. are
subject to arrest and punishment a.
provided by law.
In previous years there was consid
cradle vandalism by the destruction
of cedar and pine trees. ferns and
other plants for use as Christmas dec
orations. The authorities have decid-
ed to prevent a repetition of the prac
tice this year and have increased the
force of watchmcn to enforce the law.
Col. Sheriff., engineer officer in
charge. has suggested that automo-
bilists who actually get their Christ
mas green in Maryland and Virgin
avoid the use of roads in Rock Greek
and Potomac parks as otherwise they
may be suspected of having obtained
their shrubbery in the parks in yio-
lation of law. and thereby be subject
ed to inconvenience if not humiliation
of detention
