Everybody Works. in
Opera

NEW YORK. November 90 tP.-
Scenery and lighting rehearsals are
as much part of the preparation for
an opera production as those of the
singers and orchestra. Stage hands
and electricians have their cues upon
which smoothly produced opera
depends.
Mocha nical effects for new operas
are tried out repeatedly before the
initial performance. until pilot" nr
electricians score is satisfactorily eS
ia blshed
j. Buchter chief electrician for the
Metropolitan. prepares the pilots" for
that organizat ton. Unlike the operate
score with musical notes to he sung
or played. they have written notes
telling when certain buttons should he
pressed or switches pulled. In eality.
they are marked copies of the lihretto
The cues are underscored in the
librettO and sheets pasted between
the leaves contain the notes tn he
followed. When Il cue is reached
Buchter presses n button. of which
there are several rows ON a switch
board offstage. An electrician or
stage hand at some strategic point
hears a buzzer or. if silence is re-
quired. sees tiny light flash in a bulb
before his eyes. 1t is his cue tn
operate spotlight. raise or lower
curtain. or perform some other task.
The lights are controlled from
large switchboard in the cellar. A ma
sits in the cellar with his head pro
truding through hole i'm the stage
floor out of sight of the audience. At
a cue, he signals through speaking
tube to the electrician at his feet,
who operates the switches. Of which
there are five rows of approximately
80 each.
At rehearsals. the stage manager.
the scenic artist and Ruchter watch
the stage from seats i'm the rear of
the opera house. BY means of n
portable telephone they communicate
with lieutenants at the switchboards
and at other spots behind the scenes.
Criticisms and instructions thus are
relayed.

WILLIAM A cox of 1109 Four
teenth street northwest has hon
ored the memory of his wife. l.Ottie
s. Cox. who died February IL. 1925,
with a song entitled Had With You
Another Day" which has become in
creasingly popular AS sung over radio.
1t is not Mr.. Coxs intention to COM
mercialize this tribute song in any
way and he has been much surprised
at the decided popularity gained by
the composition.
For over quarter of a century the
Coxes lived happily in an unpreten-
tious but very homelike little house
on Fifth street northwest. Singers
and others with musical talent were
numbered among their closest friends.
and although neither Mr.. nor Mrs.
Cox was musician, both were music
lovers Originally the song was
written by Mr.. Cox as a lyric poem
to try to express his feelings in
tribute to the memory of his wife. A
friend who was a pianist heard Mr..
Cox hum the tune that persisted in
running through his head as he
wrote the words down and every time
he read them over. The pianist set
the song simply, but effectively, using
this melody.
