Third Opera
Colorfully
Presented
Columbia Company
Warmly Received
in Faust"
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

DI ALlOE LtERSMhNs
T Asst evening the Columbia Opera
Company of New York turned
IL over its presentation Of Faust"
the third opera Of its weeks
engagement at the Rialto Theater, to
it's American contingent, who sang
this masterpiece Of Gounod in the
language in which 1t was written. AL
though numerous cuts were made in
the score, imposed, one imagines, by
the limitations of the stage and the
difficulty of presenting the scenes as
fully as demanded, the opera was col
orfully presented so that none Of the
essentials were missed. Another large
audience greeted the singers work
with enthusiasm at every opportunity.
The orchestra was considerably i'm
proved over the first night and again
much praise must be meted out to
Umberto Mugnai for his direction.
From vocal standpoint the singing
of Jeffrey Gould was the most out
standing and in no way comparable
to his rather mediocre performance
of Alto on the opening night. AS
Valentine, Marguerite's brother, he
was positive in his Interpretation and
his voice proved to be Of much finer
caliber than was apparent on the
debut night. 1t Is large, mellow, and
at the same time amply resonant, and
the sonorous melody Of his aria was
delivered with splendid vocal freedom,
even in the highest register. BY rea-
son Of the character of his voice, he
made the role Of Valentine more i'm
pressive than is often the case.
OF the other three most important
characters in the story, the Marguerite
of Marthe Errolle claimed first atten-
tion. Her voice, which gained warmth
as she sang, is admirable, clear and
fresh and unspoiled. Her acting Of
the role followed tradition, but was
not specially noteworthy for original
ity. Lee Sherman, as Faust, displayed
splendid. ringing high tones but un-

steadiness in the medium portion de-
stroyed the natural beauty OF timbre.
Lloyd Harris, the Mephistopheles,
made much Of the role usually and
hhtrionically, In spite Of the lack Of
stage space. His vocal Interpretation,
however, was unequal, many Of the
climaxes missing f1re when the voice
did not measure up to the require
ment. This was the more unexpected,
as in other moments he sang with
sufficient vibrancy. The smaller roles
OF Martha, Siebel and Wagner were
well portrayed by Gretchen Haller,
Rita Taft and Raoul Carrere. The
waltzes Of the peasant,y were danced
by the Baltimore Ballet, with some
touches which surely were not indigo
nous to those simple people.
By this time the Columbia Opera
has proven that enjoyable, well-sung
performances can be expected during
its stay at the Rialto. The casts are
well selected and the presentations are
as smooth as can be managed on
stage not built for opera. The re-

tripping; Teddy Tenley, when he is

Robert Duncan turns in what seemed

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
SENATORIAL COURAGE

In opposing the president on his supreme court
plan, Senator Bennett Clark, of Missouri, son OF
the late Champ Clark who missed the presi-
dency by hair sis taking his political life in his
hands"
So declares the Kansas City Times which is re-
freshed Ito find political leader with such cour-
ageous integrity"
That newspaper proceeds to defend the Senator
from Missouri:
Senator Clark believed the Democratic platform
meant what it said. So throughout the long cam
paign he poured scorn those who doubted the
good faith of the president and charged that ne
had designs on the supreme court The Senator
was allowed to make these speeches by the Demo-
cratic high command Now he finds himself let
down.
"The other is that the president and all the
Democratic speakers in the campaign proclaimed
that the emergency was Now they find the
president is proclaiming new emergency to JUS
tify his attack upon the independence of the judi
ciary."
The case of Senator Clark is mentioned here
mostly for its paraelism with the attitude of North
Cardinals Senator Bailey.
The latter is showing the same type of resistance
to the presidents stand as Clark and some others
of the leading Democratic senators, and as mat
ter of fact it is doubtful if any leader in congress
who ressts this to pack the supreme court
has been as scholarly, logical and as irresistible
in his argument as Senator Bailey.
He has confined himself to rationaisms.
Certainly. he has not allowed his argument to
degenerate into sophistry nor his attacks to strike
below the presidential belt
He has been clean-cut, impersonal but relentless
in his opposition and unlike the brilliant Sen
ator Carter Glass has refused to become phrase
maker in diatribes merely in order to show how
virilely and bitterly he opposes the president
Senator Bailey, however. is not taking his po-
litica life in his hands our contemporary says
of Senator Clark-at least in the same sense
While the North Carolina senator has exposed
himself to somewhat pitiless fire from the truck
ling partisans of the president within the ranks OF
his constituency, he has six more years to serve
before the voters of the state can get another
whack at his scalp and by that time they either
may have had reason to reverse their present an
tagonisms toward him or he may not so much as
request them to return him to Neutrality-suspicious.
