Marjorie Webster Camp
PrOUeS Unusual Success

One of the most unusual
ventures that the Marjorie
Webster School have ever
undertaken was the opening
of a day and boarding camp
for children this summer. It's
season is about to close, after
having given a great deal of
happiness to over 800 children.
This camp will be, from now
on, an established institution.
1t has not only proved a great
need in Washington but it
has given an unusual opportu-
nifty to the graduates of the
Marjorie Webster School of
Physical Education to take
their responsibility as counsel
ors. The last two months
The Washington times., 1933-08-31

have given employment to
some 20 young girls, who have
received this experience with
great enthusiasm and who
have helped to make a very
successful camp season.
The Marjorie Webster Schools
open September 18. The Junior
School of Speech is opening
with an unusually fine enroll
ment; the School for Secre-
taries evidently must meet the
need of the short and inten-
sive practical course for young
women, for it is demanding
an increase in the building OF
class rooms; the school of
Physical Education has the
largest enrolment of the past
four years.

System Is Revised
By Drdf ting School

The Columbia School of
Drafting, which was organized
in 1910, established an Engi-
neering Department in 1928
with local group classes teach
ing the principal branches of
engineering. The school now
announces that all classes of
the engineering department
have been revised and arranged
for individual instruction. This
means that a student may
start his course at any time
and may regulate his atten-
dance schedule according to
convenience and to finances.

Tuning Up.

NIRBRANT with health and vitality
and weighing six pounds more than
she did in June, Lily Pons, noted color
atura soprano of the Metropolitan
Opera and the opening attraction Of
Mrs Dorothy Hodgkin Dorsey's Tuesday
afternoon concert series, season of
1s33-34, has ensconced herself in her
Beauvallon villa, on the French Riviera,
for q preliminary session with trills
and scales before resuming her operatic
and concert career in America.
When Pons sailed from New York in
mid May she had fully recovered from
the illness which interrupted her con-
cert tour of last Winter but she was
badly in need of a rest. Regardless Of
that fact, she made her concert debut
in Paris at a grand concert for French
war wounded at the Sale Pleyel. and a
week later she made her operate debut
in Rome at the official invitation of the
Mussolini government. Then came the
vacation.
This was spent in the Black Forest
the Schwarzwald-of Germany. where
Pons mapped out and closely followed a
strict regime of dieting, walking and
horseback riding. The net result is a
radiant Lily Pons. weighing six French
pounds more than two months ago and
apparently as fit as a fiddle. Six
pounds. of course, is an important item
with Mile. Pons. She Is so diminutive,
so petite and withal so dynamic that
many experts predicted that Pons would
never be able to stand up under the
rigors Of a concert and operatic season
In the United States. But Pons has so
far confounded them all. She Is ready
to begin her fourth American season
and, barring that unfortunate cold Of
last Winter-her first misfortune in
that respect-she has maintained her
tour schedules with the utmost pune
tilio.
For the next month, Pons will spend
at Beauvallon, tiny village on the
Mediterranean near Cannes, in a pre-
liminary tuning up" process for the
season ahead. Alberti, the well known
vocal teacher Of Paris, is staying at
Beauvallon to assist Pons in this pro-
cess, while there are occasional trips
to Turin. where Tullio Seraphin, Metro
politan Opera conductor, is staying
Seraphin and Mile. Pons are preparing
the role of Linda" in Donizettis opera
Linda di Chamounix," which the
Metropolitan is reviving this coming
season and in which Pons will be heard
in the title role.
