there has been a change in numbers
required to be sung by dramatic So
pranos of the student group. Very few
copies of "Knabe and Veilchen" youth
and Violets) can be found and the num-
Der is out of print Great concern, ma
tionally has been manifested by this
group of singers over the scarcity,
therefore the National Federation of
Music Clubs, under whose guidance the
contest is to be held, has substituted
another number. The song required in
stead is "Fruhlingsnacht' (Spring
Night) by Schumann.
"LeClavecin," by Paulin, required to
be sung. as. one of the numbers. by
lyric sopranos. is published in French
with no translation. while the rules of
the contest require that all numbers be
sung in English. A translation has
been provided for the federation by Mrs.
Arthur Holmes Morse of Cincinnati, and
will be published in all future copies of
the contest bulletin. This number also
was not to be found at the local dealers,
but arrangements were made whereby
it may be obtained at Washington
