When the National Symphony Or

next TO its major aim of founding an
orch Rstra for the Capital, was to
augment the comparatively Scanty
symphonic fare in cities south of the

no orchestras of their own. and it was
believed that an orchestra in Wash
ington would be the most feasible Or
ganization, from geographical stand
point. to bring them symphonic music,
just as the Boston Symphonic Or
chestras major field is in New Eng
land; the Detroit Symphony and

lectS, the leading native languages

Associated with Mr.. johnson in the
formation of the Metropolitan Opera
Quartet will be Grace Moore, the love-
ly soprano of opera, concert, radio
and the screen, as well as Rose Bamp-
ton, the Metropolitan's young contral-
to, and Richard Bonelli, American
born baritone, of the same oTganiza-
ton. Early in october these four
artists will make a short tour of the
principal cities of the United States
before joining the Metropolitan for
the opera season of l934-35.
Unlike many other famous singers,
Edward johnson did not journey
to Europe this Summer. There were
several reasons for this, the most i'm
portant of which was an engagement
to sit for a portrait by R. Wiley Grier,
the Canadian painter, which will
hang in the town hall of Guelph, Mr..
JohnSonS Canadian birthplace, as a
recognition of the esteem in which
the singer is held by his fellow towns
men. Although Canadian born, Mr..
Johnson has long been a naturalized
American citizen.
In addition to sitting for his por-
trait, Mr.. johnson had his heart set
on a Summer of fishing, hiking and
golf. He is an inveterate fisherman,
regardless of what may be said of his
farming, and so devastating was the
havoc wrought by this famous Romeo
Pelleas of the worlds most notable
opera company that some wag among
his New York associates, hearing of
Johnson's prowess with rod and reel,
dashed off the following:
Mother, may go out and swim?"
"Oh, if you do you're gone, son.
You'll never escape the rod and bait
Of that willy Edward Johnson"
In addition to the Metropolitan
Opera quartet, Mrs. DorSey's Tues
day afternoon recital series will bring
to Washington during the forthcom-
ing season such musical attractions as
Fritz Kreisle", the violiniSt; Lily PonS,
