somber proscenium arch for nearly four
decades has yawned across the orches-
ira pit upon a glittering diamond

opera on which the heavy steel curtain
will descend, just as Romeo and
Juliet" was chosen to open the theater

sufficient national consequence to bring
President Harrison and Vice President
Led p. Morton on from Washington.

ished structure the year before. Gov
