CINE Of an a~eroplane was heard IN the

Four Metropolitan Operas
Are Definitely Announced.

nEFINITE announcement Is now pos
sible OF the four operas to be given
here by the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany during the latter part Of April,
under the local management OF Mrs.
wilson Greene.
The season will open Wednesday eve
ming. April 18. with Rosa Ponselle in
Norma" outstanding success OF the
current Metropolitan season. Norma, +"
as many opera-lovers will recall, has
not been revived in thirty-f1ve years
until the Metropolitan added 1t to its
repertoire this season, for the reason
the arduous exactions of the title role.
Feodor Chaliapin. great Russian
artist, in "Boris Godunoff," one Of the
most spectacular and dramatic Of
operas. will be the second attraction in
the series, Thursday afternoon, April
19. Boris is Chaliapin's greatest role.
Moussorgsky's is the only opera ex-
tant in which the principal character
Is portrayed by a basso. The Metro
politan gives this massive and impress
sive production.
Third on the list come Lucrezia
Bori and Beniamino Gigli in Gounod's S
Romeo and Juliet" Saturday after
noon, April 81. There has been a
marked demand for these two stars to
appear together, and Romeo and
Juliet" appears to be the opera bes,
adapted for that purpose.
The fourth and final opera, Saturday
evening, April 81, will be 'Tannhauser,'
with cast to be announced later.
The return Of the Metropolitan thi:
season after its notable success last
year. when 1t visited Washington fol
the first time after an absence o!
eighteen seasons seems likely to be the
greatest event in which this remarkable
company has ever figured locally.

States: Leon Sametini of Chicago. rep
resentativc for the Middle West; Willen
ten Have Of Cincinnati as representa-
tive for the South. and Mr.. Van HUI
