Legends Provide Stories
For German Operas Here

7 EGEND and romance make up the
repertory for the German Grand
Opera Co., S. Hurok, managing director,
whose series of Wagner and Mozart OPP
eras opens the grand opera season in
Washington early in January, bringing
a wealth of literature to opera scores
that abound in the richest orchestra
tions, while heroes anS,heroines OF epic
poetry add TO the stage stories fascl-
mating world of illusion that can only
find expression in grand opera al Its
best.
Wagner, who caught in tone :!.e most
subtle sounds of nature, put into the
music of The Flying Dutchman' enc
Of the most dramatic episodes OF his
life. In the legend of the Flying Dutch
man we are told that a Dutch captain
once tried to double the Cape of Good
Hope in the teeth of furious galt, and
sWore he would accomplish his purpose
even if he kept sailing on forever. The
devil heard the oath and condemned
the unhappy captain to sail the sea I'M
til the day of Judgment. Only the love
of faithful woman could release him
from his fate.
Such is "The Flying Dutchman," with
its music of storm, Of mystery and of
great emotion when once more he
comes into harbor and wins the true
love Of the maiden Senta. Wagner
heard the story from the lips of some
sailors on the coast of Norway. where
he was storm bound during his first
Journey from Riga to London en- route
for Paris to hear his first opera,
"Rienzi." The voyage was terrible
one that lasted three weeks. More than
once he, his wife and their Great Dane
dog, Robber, faced death. and the deep
impression made upon him by this Dat
tie with the wild elements is consid-
cred to have ripened Wagner's genius
and had strong influence on all his
later works.

season as conductor of the Boston Sym

upon his plans to feature works by

Almost Immediately upon his arrival,
Mr.. Koussevitzky spoke at length on his
plans for the coming season and was
not at all reluctant to say that he finds
the work OF young American composers
more interesting than their European
confreres.
BY way of illustrating his interest in
the native composers, KoussevitZky will
offer, during the coming season, SYM

Atwater Kent Addition in
Last Week of October

ONE of the days of the last week in
~ october will be selected by the ma
tional radio addition committee, Percy
S. Foster, chairman, for the competi-
ton among young singers Of the Dis
trict to determine who shall enter the
district addition in New York in No
vember and vie for national honors and
the $4,000 cash awards given by the
Atwater Kent Foundation. Mr.. Foster
states that the matter is largely a
question of obtaining broadcasting ia
cilities from WRC for the final COM
petition.
The subcommittee, organized to get
together the young singers who are to
compete, held two meetings at the WRC
studio Wednesday and Thursday under
craftsmanship of DR.. Alfred w. Harmed.
This committee will survey the District
for the national addition and go over
applications already pouring into the
foundation headquarters, in the Albee
Building. The committee announced
after its last meeting that it desired
young singers to understand that any
young man or young woman between
the ages of 18 and IS years, who has
not been 3 professional singer or sung
for pay outside Of the District of CO.
lumbia, is eligible.
1.-THE purpose of the national radio
addition is to discover young singers,
whoever and wherever they may be, in
Washington" said DR.. Harmed THE
big thing the addition is doing for
music throughout the country is that
there is no restriction of any kind as
to eligibility--no pull no special rec
ommendation,, no extended reputation
as a musician is needed. Any one who
believes he or she has a voice may
compete, the only understanding being
that every one completes on equal terms"
The number of applicants makes it
necessary for an elimination contest to
be held, which will not be broadcast
This will be one week before the final
contest. The date of both the elimina-
ton and final tests will be announced
later.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS FOR ALASKA
 INDIANS.

The Federal Bureau of Education has announced that the establishment of Industrial School for Indians in Southeastern Alaska is assured. This will be the fourth such institution of it's kind to be constructed in the Territory by the Federal Govern ment. One is located on Seward Peninsula, another on the Alaska Railroad and the third the Alaska Peninsula.
 There are approximately 30000 Indians and Es- kimos living in Alaska. Of this number probably COCO are of school age. The greatest need of the younger members of those races is education and training in the arts and trades natural to their environment and local economic and industrial conditions The Federal Bureau of Education main tains large number of schools for primary educa- inadequate that the Bureau cannot begin to for the needs of the pupils who every year complete their work in the regular schools. The result is that it falls down at the most vital point When the boy or girl completes the regular course in the primary schools he or she has just reached the stage where it is possible to teach to them trade that would enable them to become highly useful units in the Terrtory's economic life. Without it. they are handicapped they go out to achieve for a livelihood for themselves.
 The Industrial Training School for Southeast ern Alaska will fill want that has long been felt But in adding it to the three already in existence the Federal Government has not by any means gone as far is necessary. It should add several others without delay if it has to curtal some of it's other local activities which do not hold out the promise of that industrial training assures.
