OPERA STAR
is GREEK PAL
OF WRESTLER

WHEN Jean Fardulli comes to
Washington to sing the leading
baritone role in La Traviata" at
Constitution Hall, January 20, the
National Capital will entertain him,
not only as "the Greek god of song"
as he Is described by sentimental
ladies in their tender moments, but
also as the fellow countrymen and pal
Of "Jeem" Londos, the wrestler.
Like most Greeks, Londos revels in
grand opera; and when one of the
star singers Is the Greek Fardulli, the
"rassler" will travel far and spend
much money to get to the perform
ance.
But there is another reason why the
two Greeks are such fast friends.
Fardulli was at one time amateur
wrestling and boxing champion of
Greece. Standing feet. 4 inches,
tall, with mighty chest development,
and quick as the well-known cat on
his feet, the singer towers high above
his friend "Jeem" and looks as If he
might dispose Of the "rassler" on the
mat In short order.
Recently they met In Washington,
where both are popular, especially In
the Greek colony; and before lunch
ing with a group of friends in q
private dining room, Jean got a deadly
hold on "Jeem" when the champion
was not expecting competition. Down
went "Jeem"-but not for long!
Wriggling out of the amateurs grip,
ne became exceedingly busy for
several minutes on the job of putting
Jean down. Supine and helpless, and
nearing one Of his own joints crack
under Londos treatment, Jean sur
rendered.
But say!" exclaimed Londos In
admiration. you have the powerful
muscle, Jean. Grand opera singers
keep themselves fit that way, do they?"
DO they?" echoed Fardulli. II
should hope to tell you! When a
singer begins to 60 stale physically
his voice begins to develop sour notes
In many ways, Jim, singer Is as
careful Of his physical condition as
you are of yours"
Fardulli's father, a civil engineer,
was stationed at Port Said when Jean
was still in his teens. Also stationed
there were many Austrian troops
Somebody, hearing that young Fardulli
had won the prep school title of
Greece, in both wrestling and boxing
matched him with the stars of both
sports among the Austrians-and Jean
licked them all.
Returning to Greece. he met all OF
the outstanding contenders for the
country's title in wrestling and boxing,
and again he was victor with almost
monotonous regularity. In his early
thirties today, in perfect condition

The children in the Sunday school
scene of the play regarded him al
most with reverence. He carried the
benevolence of his character off stage,
and as he strolled Forty-Seventh street
in New York between matinee and
night show, he used to pause to chat
with children.
When The Green Pastures" re-
turned to New York, February 26, to
reopen on the fifth anniversary of its

lated the engagement be limited to
