CHll0REN'S THEATER
PRESENTS FRENCH PLAY
"Nobody's Girl" Taken From
Sans Famille," at National
December 8.

A new type of play. presenting an
old. favorite story, will be offered to
Washington's younger generation Sat-
urday, December 8. when the Chill
drens Theater presents "Nobody's
Girl at the National Theater.
"Nobody's Girl is a special dramat-
ization OF Hector Malot's French
classic. Sans Famille." prepared for
the stage by Glare Tree Major. direc-
tor OF the Children's Theater OF New
York. The story for many years has
been a favorite with young students
OF French, although 1t has not been
as familiar to the average American
child until recent years
This play was chosen for the Chill
orens Theater partly because of the
accurate and interesting picture it
presents of a cross section of French
provincial life. picture which will
be we'll balanced later in the season
when Louisa May Alcotts Under the
Lilacs" will be given, showing life in
the United States at the same period.
The play shows conditions among the
peasants, the middle classes and the
rich manufacturing groups of several
generations ago.
The costuming and settings par
ticularly will attract children because
OF the almost endless possibilities for
the introduction Of color. Entirely
aside from the cultural values of the
elements Of heroism. h. =. and self
reliance offered by ''Nobody's Girl" it
possesses unusual instructive qualities
in the possibilities for firmly implant-
ing in the young mind a picture Of
how the other half OF the world lives
and feels.

Lullaby" the German "zT.auderbach"
and the French "Trois Jeunes Tam
bours" gave her an opportunity to de-
scribe. She repeated the "Z'Lauter-
bach" with even more charming gusto.
Three numbers stood out as unfor-
gettable instances of remarkable in
depreciation and tremendous vocal
power. In Loewe's Dance of the
Fairy Lilies" Nine Onegin showed an
extraordinary coloratura command
exceptional in a contralto of her
volume. Schubert's Der Doppel-
gaenger" was as thrillingly dramatic
as an operate aria, while her singing
of the Song of Triumph" aria from
Verdis Lady Macbeth" with its
wide range and difficult vocal mo-
ments, was summing up, as it were,
of all her art. These. more than the
charming folk song group, were the
highlightS of the program.
In the Dance of the Witches" by
Loewe and Schuberts "Aufenthaly,"
"Staendchen" and Der Abschied"
there was infinite variety such as only
a singer of Nine. Onegin's character
coulo give. In response TO many re-
quests she gave a vital rendition Of
Der Erlkoenig" and the delicate Die
Forelle" completing the Schubert
group with his best beloved numbers.
Hermann Reuter-, whose musical
arrangement Of her folk songs was
especially lovely was a splendid ac-
companist with an expert manner Of
creating the proper atmosphere for
song. He was heard as soloist in a
Brahms intermezzo, ballade and
rhapsodie, where a fine control of
pianissimo was his most outstanding
characteristic. The program was con-
cluded in an unusual fashion with
Nine. Onegin singing her own appro-
pirate translation of a German song
which was in the nature of farewell
and which she cleverly finished by
grasping her accompanies hand and
running off the stage.

Not many singers are equipped
either vocally or dramatically to cope
with the exigencies Of these songs,
simple as to form but complex in ma
terial. Onegin brings to the interpre-
tation of these masterpieces rich
musical understanding and a re-
sponsive vocal mechanism. Possessing
a magnificent contralto voice which
ranges into the soprano register with
ease, she is not limited to a particular
genre of music, but is equally free IN
lieder or operate singing.
One cannot help but be regretful in
listening to Nine Onegin that she
has chosen the type Of vocal produc-
ton which does not show her voice
to the greatest advantage. Hollow
ness of sound and lack of tone con-
centration Interfere with the effects
she visualizes so artistically, while a
poor legato and harsh enunciation de-
tract considerably from pure bel
canto singing. In spite Of tonal pro-
duction one seldom hears nowadays,
she did some remarkable singing, par
ticularly in the way of Interpretation,
and found many nuances which dis
played her generous artistic endow-
ment
Her manner Of presenting pro-
gram is friendly and natural and it
was not long before she had her
audience in complete accord with her.

was reached her public knew what to

started his first lecture Of the season
In Washington with comparisons Of
the Moscow of today and the Moscow
of yesteryear.
First to fall beneath the searching
eye of the camera were the new hotels
built to provide adequate accommo-
dations for visitors. The Russian
hotels Of today have a luxury and
comfort that was lacking several years
ago. Washington, judging from the
pictures Of Moscow and Leningrad,
is not the only city with transporta-
ton problems, for the transit facilities
Of these important Russian urban
centers are taxed to the limit.
Several glimpses of the Russian
Riviera were provided in an interesting
fashion. The erstwhile palaces of the
mobiles under the regime of the Car
have now been transformed into hos
pitfalls. rest houses and sanatoriums for
sick workers who are in good standing
with the Soviets.
Probably the most interesting sub
ject treated was the use of the churches
that fiourished under Nicholas II.
