in Verdi's "Falstaff," he stole the
show from Scott, with laundering
ovation rarely given any singer at
the Met.
He was the son Of sheriff in the
"Badlands" country around Bakers
field, Calf. His father was killed by
bandit and young Tibbett grew up
in Los Angeles. He knew he had a
voice, but he didn't want to sing.
He wanted to be a Shakespearean
actor. Hoping to study for the stage,
he earned money singing at
churches and movie palaces, be-
coming soloist for the California
theater.
In 1922, he arrived in New York
on borrowed money. He worked up
a concert and sold a lot of tickets,
but he wasn't there. He had the
mumps. All that came out Of the
concert was an extra ''T'' dropped
in his name by the program printer.
He let it ride and that's how he be-
came Tibbett instead Of Tibet.
Numerologists would say, Of course,
that that was what changed his
luck. AT any rate, the change came
soon after. Gatti- Casazza gave him
a hearing and he was soon on the
uptake in the Metropolitan.
He is tall and good looking and
lacking in those stellar eccentrici-
ties which make newspaper copy.
There is, though, one little oddly
worth noting. Apt to have head
aches, he cures them by walking
around on his hands. He says that
sluices the blood down into his head
and stops the pain.

Egypt's New King.

TING FAROUK I, who was
- crowned king of Egypt recent
ly on his eighteenth birthday,
seems to be entirely acceptable to
the powerful Wafd sect which, dur
ing the last few years, has been fam
ming up challenging nationalist
movement in Egypt. England has
done some adroit maneuvering since
his father, old King Saud, died in
April, 1886.
King Farouk was educated in part
at the Royal Military academy and,
it is understood, is enthusiastically
certified by the British guardians of
the empire. 1t is believed that this
coronation will cinch bit tighter
the political and economic ties Of
Britain and Egypt. This has be-
come matter Of special concern
since Italy's seizure Of Ethiopia and
her threat to the blue Nile with it's
bearing on vast cotton growing and
processing projects in the Sudan.
For the last two years, Farouk
has enjoyed kingly status, but under
a regency. He will now be Egypt's
first nominally independent ruler in
four centuries. He is an athlete,
six feet tall, skilled in polo, swim
ming and other sports.
Like his late father, he likes to
drive big red car to the mosque on
Friday to observe the Moslem Sab
bath. Ills absorbing interest is his
stamp collection. Two boy kings
are left-Peter II of Jugoslavia,
aged fourteen, and King Amanda Of
Siam, aged eleven.

long ago discovered that the most

What's worse, this coast-defender
of ours labors under the delusion
that, If he shouts at the top Of his
voice, his eloquence will be all the
more forceful. The only way to
avoid meeting him at dinner is to
eat at an owl wagon. But the other
night, at an important banquet, he
strangely was missing from the ar
ray Of speakers at the head table.
One guest turned in amazement to
his neighbour:

cradle pre1ates of the Catholic
church in Europe, while discussing
the same subject, hasn't exactly
pulled his punches, either.
So what? A friend just back from
abroad tells me that in Berlin he
heard a high government officer
fiercely denounce these two distin-
guished men. About the mildest
thing the speaker said about them
was that both were senile. Some
how or other, the speech wasn't
printed in the German papers
maybe by orders from on high.
