BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

Giovanni Martinelli. one Of the fore
most tenors of the Metropolitan, whose
beautiful voice has had large share
in sustaining the brilliancy associated
with the greatest opera house in the
world, returned to Washington last
evening after many years to give a
program of songs and arias at Con-
stitution Hall. Assisting him was Inez
Lauritano, violinist, who in her OPEN
ing number proved her right to be
presented with one of the greatest
tenors of the day.
In spite of the stormy weather.
good sized and distinguished audience
was present and expressed a deep ap-
probation of a program it is not often
the fortune of local music lovers to
hear. For Mr.. Martinelli was in
splendid voice and sang with abandon
the lovely % Paradise" aria from
"L'Africana," the haunting e lucevan
lie stelle" from "Tosca." finishing with
one of the most difficult arias for tenor,
the Celeste Aida" from Verdis mag
nificent opera.
The interesting point about Mr.
Martinelli's singing is the way in
which the natural beauty of his voice
shines through the veneer of training
and experienced usage. 1t has the

with more gifted actor than John
Boles in the part of Walter Craig, but
1t merits top ranking among the
camera versions of excellent plays.
While Columbia Pictures Corp. de-
serves due praise for the honesty
of its Interpretation of a good story,
it must also be remarked that the
trite, futile and silly moralistic tag
attached to the picture is a perfect
sample of the inspired imbecility
peculiar to the motion picture BUSH
ness. After driving home with re.
lentless force the maxim, people who
live for themselves alone are gen.
orally left alone" the producers
decided it would be a bright idea to
repeat the statement in big bold print
after the final curtain. A fine example,
We should say, of double jeopardy.
The current Earle bill also offers a
stage appearance of Red Nichols and
his Five Pennies, an orchestra so well
known to phonograph and radio fans
that it wants no aid from critics.
Nichols band is in turn, hot, smooth
and corny, and his entertainers fill
out the vaudeville requirements to
order. After the gripping ordeal of
the picture BILL his band supplies a
pleasant return to the gifted dizziness
of the day.

quality that belongs to the charm OF
his country and one cannot forget in
the finished art of the opera singer,
the intensity of the urge to sing which
springs SO spontaneously from the
hearts of his countrymen and which,
in all his years before the public,
Martinelli has not lost.
Ire freshness of tonal color, the
ringing timbre whether in pianissimo
or the opposite and throughout his
range, and the nostalgia quality of the
voice itself was used effectively in
every number. The programmed songs
did not equal the arias in character,
but were given with genuine feeling,
especially Berlioz' "L'Absence," De-
bussy's Mutt d'Etoiles," Tosti's
"Ideale' and Donaudy's "Vaghissima
Sembianza." A charming number was
"Berceuse Amoureuse" from the pen

brilliant performance of the rather

In spite of its technical difficulties the
concerto is not an interesting one,

Miss Lauritano played it in spirited
style, extracting every iota of beauty
it could give. She is vital performer,

sound technique, the clarity of which
suffered no blemishes last evening.
Into her second group, Bloch's

Mr.. Martinelli was able to create an
atmosphere of informality during the
program which won the public at once
and for their further satisfaction he
added numbers that charmed by their
lyric character. This was the first
concert to be presented by the Beren-

patronage Of Mrs. Franklin D. Roose-

She had the tilt of the nose, the at
tractively superior and debonair man
ner which marked that lady's best ef-
forts for the silver screen. She now
emerges a full-fiedged motion picture
star in the celluloid version OF George
Kelly's Pulitzer prize play. The finest
commentary that could be delivered
upon the sincerity of her work was
supplied yesterday by a susceptible
first audience witnessing the screen
drama. She made herself so thor
oughly contemplate that every de-
feat she suffered provoked applause
from the customers, and no greater
tribute could be paid performer who
set out to do a good job in the role
of Harriet Craig.
AS a motion picture "Craig's Wife"

creating great excitement over moth
ing in particular. With dialogue by
Clifford Odets, excellent performances
oy Gary Cooper, Madeleine Carroll,
Porter Hall and Akin Tamiroff tan
unknown who hereby writes his name
IN marquee lights, the production
could. scarcely be called inferior. 1t
is nevertheless designed for a partic-
ular taste in cinema antics, and may
either appeal to you immensely or
cause you to walk away wagging the
head over the vagaries of Hollywood
imagination. At any rate, don't miss
the argument. 1t is invariably heated,
being based upon such questions as
the probability of IL Chinese COM
mitting suicide because their general
told them they had 'lost face" with
him. or the plausibility of Dudley
Dlgges as an Oriental mogul.
The Columbia. of course, offers the
usual side show of comedies, news
reels, cartoons and whatnot.
