Fairy Opera
By Students
Wins Favor
Nine. Zalipsky Shares
Applause of Pierce
Hall Audience.

kk~ NEGOURoCHKA," the fairy
opera about the Snow
Maiden" by M. Rimsky-
- Korsakoff, was presented
last evening in Pierce Hall by local
students under the direction Of Nine.
Marie Zalipsky. The audience, which
filled the hall, was enthusiastic over
the work done and at the close Of the
performance Nine Zalipsky was per-
suaded to appear on the stage and
share in the plaudits. The performance
was creditable presentation for young
and inexperienced singers. The cos
tuning was colorful and the settings as
adequate as the small stage would
permit.
Elise Hastings appeared as "Sneg-
ourochka." She has a light voice Of
considerable immaturity, many Of her
tones showing a bell-hke or fiute-like
quality. Marjorie King, cast as
Koupava, the contralto role, has an
excellent voice Of good range and
power and her scene with Gar Ber-
endey, sung by Eddy Perkins. was one
Of the best scenes in the performance.
James Magill as Misguir, a baritone
role, was quite the best singer of the
cast and not only gave vitality to the
part, but his rich voice was outstanding
in the cast. Sola Hastings, as the
Shepherd. Lehl, did her part well.
Others who had solo parts were
Annette Rose as the Fairy Spring,
Helen Kiernan-Vasa as Bobylycka,
Johanna Koenig as a page. Alexander
Piankof as the Spirit of the Woods.
John Herman as King Frost, James
Magill as Carnival. and Eugene Step
hanon as BODY.
Nine. Zalipsky played the accom-
psniment Of the opera on the piano,
aiding the singers materially by follow
ing the vocal score and conducting
from the piano. Eugene Shastan was

the mind is concerned. Although con-
cerned with trying to solve crimes and
such like, her real ambition is to remarry
William Powell-and she asks him not
once but one-and-eighty times II he
won't march up the aisle with her
again.
You don't mind this for the first
half-dozen times-afterward it seems
iustifiable to throw a bottle or an
usher at her.
This is the film that the R-K-O Co.
has been holding over MIR. Powell's
head ever since he became more or less
permanently situated over at M-G-M.
While 1t Is meant to be light and
breezy, witty and sometimes exciting.
1t strikes us as entirely too coy to
amount to anything much.
Nevertheless, as Mr.. Hardie Meakin
reminded us after the first screening,
Mr.. Powell does not hug glass or a
beer bottle till the final scene-and
that at least Is something in his and
the pictures favor.
Built more for a Robert Montgomery
than a Powell, the story tells of race
track racketeers and how you can kill
your worst enemy by planting spider
in his shirt. If, for instance, you want
to make mincemeat out of your foe, all
you have to do is to plant black
spider In a small capsule, plant said
capsule on said foes body and then
watch the heat Of the body dissolve
