 The choir began the program by singing half q dozen Russian hymns, and to those not acquainted with the modal harm onies of genuine Russian choral music their contribution was unique. Most of the hymns were in minor modes and were beautifully presented. A piano solo. the Pre- Jude in C sharp minor by RaChman- inoff, was played by Ksania Danke- vich. who also presided over the program.
 This was followed by Michael Mol chan in violin solos. accompanied by K Dankevich. An extra number had to be played before the crowd would be pacihed. Walter Zuk then gave a mandolin solo. accompanied by Nina Dankevich.
 Niza Zaiko and Nadia katesbonck gave a Cossack dance, followed by Serge Gladilin in a tenor solo taken from Russian opera. He made quite a hit. The balalaika orchcs- tra did the Waves of the Danube" waltz. and then added some folk songs. The costumes turned the stage into a vivid picture.
 The Russian choir again sang folk songs. including one of comical nature, and also an added number with an accordion in one of the numbers played by Mr. Anop. The balalaika orchestra came forward with several more selections.
 Little Ludmila Zaiko, aged 4 years, 1 months and 4 days, created a furore with a little Russian folk dance called kozachok. A Slavic national dance in costume was given by Sophie Nazaruk, Nina Belomizy and Nina Anop.
 A comical duet, given by Serge Dankevich and Vladimir karpey was a splitter. These are the two youths who danced at the con- cert last year. Their vigorous meth cd of dancing the T.apotniki made everyone happy. The girls choir followed with a folk song and sing ing and dancing from the opera Eugene Onegin,' by TsChaikowsky giving an episode as well as stage equipment would permit, of one ot the greatest / Russian operas.
 A comedy folk scene. including singing and dancing vas given by Sophie Nazaruk, Nadia Garloysky, Serge Dankeyich and Vladimir Kar- pey, followed by another folk dance by Nina Dankevich and Margaret kateshouek.
 E. A. Serebrcnnikoff was down for some baritone solos at this point, uut felt indispOsed as far us ,ho singing was concerned, Instead, he told jokes.
 The choir again came 10 the front with folk songs. m which Sargc Gladilin sang a solo accompanied by the others sotto yoco. Tho balal- aka orchestra played nor, folk songs. th- choir sang some more
