DISAPPOINTED SINGER
 TAKES HER OWN LIFE
Thea Marovska, Folk S0Gg Artist, Unable to Withstand Adverse
 Criticism,

New York, Jan. IS R-Thea Mar ovska, 30 year old lyric singer of haunting folk-songs, made her de- but at a New York theater last Sun. day.
 It was just another debut to the critics and most of the city, but to Miss Marovska it was the realization of many years of dreams, study and privations.
 The audience. many of them her friends. applauded politely at the conclusion of her recital and went home. Newspaper critics, for the most part, gave her appearance only casual mention.
 Unfortunately" wrote one critic. Mime. Marovska cannot sing. Her sense of pitch is 50 flagrantly inexact that 1t neutralizes her otherwise de- lightful performance. She should conf1ne herself to the spoken word and the public would be hers" Other reviewers did not even say whether she was good or bad.
 Heartbroken, Miss Marovska tele- phoned Arthur Warner, associate editor of the Nation, who had be- friended her in her struggles. He invited her to his Brooklyn apart ment and when he arrived home last night found her body. fully clothed. in the bathtub. tube attached to an open gas jet in her mouth. II am a failure in my vocation, and 1t is now too late to make a new start" she said in a farewell note. In private life she was Dorothy Meirowsky and came to this country as a child from Russia. She studied here and abroad under noted in- structors.
