La Traviata'.
Well Merits
Jan Peerce Stars;
Miss Davenport's S
Voice Pleasing

The keynote of the reaction to
last nights performance of Verdis
La Traviata" at the Belasco
Theater was that of approval. The
large audience, which filled all the
available seats, took every oppor-
tunity to applaud at length indi-
vidual arias of the three principals
Janice Davenport as Violetta,
Jan Peerce, the Alfredo, and An
thony Nell as Germont-and also
the ensembles of groups with OF
without the chorus.
The unsophisticated and girlish
appearance of Miss Davenport was
a decided departure from the GUS
tomary impersonation of the title
role by more mature looking singers.
Her voice, fresh and unspoiled but
thin at times, has the pleasing quail
lty of youth and her style shows
good coaching in the best of op-
cratic traditions. Her coloratura is
flowing and her emission effortless.
Effective were her long fermati on
E fiat, above high c, in "Ah, fors'e
lui," held over and above the al
lotted time, made possible by good
breath control evidenced also in
long sustained passages throughout
the score.
While all three principals had an
almost equal share of success, Mr..
Peerce was unquestionably the star
OF the evening, his stage presence,
his singing and acting being those
of more experienced artist.
Endowed with silvery tenor
voice, brilliant and lyric at COM
mand, we'll placed. even throughout
and flexible. Mr.. Peerce uses it with
care and discretion. His principal
aria. "Lungi da lei," in the begin
ming of the second act, scored him
Well-deserved ovation. His
acting was we'll suited to his role,
and his economy of gesture was in
keeping with it.
The portrayal of Germont, Al
fredoS father, by Mr.. Nell, was
adequate and contributed to the
ensemble. While Mr.. Nell does not
possess the vocal command of his
two partners and his voice lacks
steadiness, he rose to considerable
heights in his concluding aria, "Di
Provenza." in the second act.
Rose d'Amato in her dual role
of Flora and Annina, made a good
| impression. Less can be said of

corners of evil, black magic, or
whatever one prefers to call it into
which the camera has not poked its
nose in hunt for thrills. Deadly
monsters in the shape of men. and

Although "Frankenstein" is the
better-made picture, "Dracula" is
our choice as the more fetching
horror concoction. Vampires, al
though older in legend, have not
been featured so frequently on the
screen and the dirty deeds of Count
Dracula have about them an evil zip
that canont be matched by the mon
strosities of Mary Wollstencroft
Shelleys mechanical man. Where
'Frankenstein" is pretty much
matter of brute strength, "Dracula"
has such fascinating features of

VOLTS bane and a number of similar
items that fell longer ago into dis
repute. 1t is good-and creepy
to have them back again, especially
with the evil eyes of Bella Lugosi to
give them murderous meaning.

FIRE THREATENS
 PALATIAL HOMES
Los Angeles Worst Blaze Sweeps Towards Movie
 Stars Again

Los Angeles, Nov. 26-(UP)-Pala- tial homes of movie stars and mill lonaires, isolated in the hills for seclusion and safety, were menaced anew today by raging brush fire.
 The flames roared down to the floor of Vaudeville Canyon. back of Hollywood, where are the homes of Shirley Temple, Mary Astor and w. c. Fields.
 Fire lines were mobilized in the lower Canyon reaches between the flames and the homes.
 With a wind flaming it, the fire reached a road at the bottom des- pite the efforts of hundreds of weary, grinly city firemen. Sparks shot 250 feet up, spreading the con- flagration through the finder dry brush.
 The wind then swung to the east. temporarily turning the fire back on itself. Fire Chief Ralph Scott or dered 100 fresh men into the fight, making total of 800 on the fire- lines. The city council voted $15,- 900 emergency appropriation for the worst fire in Los Angeles history
 Scott called firemen of the ridge separating Vaudeville from Sullivan Canyons when sparks shot over ther heads.
 Homes of the movie folk were still a mile from the fire. It had spread since Wednesday over a.seyen-mile reach, from the Pacific ocean north- west of Los Angeles to the north- ern edge of the exclusive Brentwood. and Bel-Aair estates north of Holly wood.
 Tn greatest danger were the homes of Film Director Stephen GoSson, Chester Upham, oil millionaire, both In Rustic Canyon, and of Mrs. John Hay Whitney in Sullivan Canyon.
 Madeleine Carroll, English actress whose rambling house in Las Flores Canyon had been reported destroy ed, returned to find it undamaged.

GOLD SNAP DUE
 TO END SUNDAY
Light Snowfall Seen; Tem= eratures Drop Around
 State

Hartford, Conn, Nov. 26 = CU..) -Near-zero temperatures today added misery to the record-making blizzard which swept through Con- necticut and caused five deaths.
 Prospects for the weekend were for warmer weather and possibly a light snowfall.
 Three of the deaths were due to over r-exertion. They were Thomas F. McDonough, 63, Hartford assistant Water Bureau foreman; Thomas Wicking, 81, Bridgeport. Frank G. Houck, New Britain, and Philip Lamaveaux, 67, Bridgeport.
 John Heating, 63, Hartford, suc- cumbed to injuries suffered when struck by an automobile during the storm.
 The temperature in the Hartford area reached as low as above zero in early morning and in other high CT sections, in Litchfield County there were below-zero- recordings for the coldest weather of the sea- son.
 Many places still were digging oui from under the heaviest snowfall in a month of November especially ir the rural regions where only tht principal highways were opened by blows.
 Transportation schedules return ed to normal, although roads were coated with ice and a film of snow.
 The sudden drop in. temperatures caught many motorists unaware ano unable to start their cars. Others still, were marooned in drifts.
 The storm damage was compara- lively slight. The greatest expense was for snow removal.
 During the height of the storm Arliss Blake, West Cheshire tried to drive his expectant wife to hos pital at Meriden. His car stalled and he telephoned for an ambulance They arrived at, the hospital in time and Blake was presented with twin sons. IA

Mackenzie III
 Mackenzie, who has been i'll since his arrest on the conspiracy charge May 21, was too i'll to be present in court July q when the other de- fendants entered their pleadings of mot guilty. All have elected to be tried by the jury, with the excep- tion of Timothy Horgan, city hall superintendent, who will place his fate in the hands of Judge Inglis.
 Mackenzie, represented by Attor- 'ney William L. Hadden of West Haven, is free in bonds of $10,000. He has taken absolutely no part in the preliminary defense campaigns of the other defendants, and this action or failure of action has giv- en rise to considerable speculation concerning his plans for the trial.
 Due Here Tuesday
 Attorney Hadden said today that he believed Mackenzie would be in court Tuesday TOT the arraignment. The only other one of the 27 de- fentAnts who has not as yet plead ed to the charge is Enoch E. Borg macs, a New York accountant, who is a fugitive from justice.
 Others who have taken no part in the preliminary defense measures are Attorney Edward G. Levy of New Haven: Attorney Charles WiI- liamson of Darien and Mir. Morgan.
 IOvy and Mackenzie are repre- sented by the same counsel and Williamson has engaged no counsel.
 To Join Defendants
 Alter entering his plea, Mackenzie is expected to join with the other defendants and await the selection of the jury for the start of the trial. Selection of the jury may require as long as three or four weeks.
 During this time the 26 defen- dants. their 16 lawyers, and three counsel for the state will be .presen! daily.

QUO WARRANTO, MANDAMUS NOT
 ON COURT LIST.
Defendants Actions Won't Come Before Supreme
 Court Next Month

Possibility that either the man. damus or quo warranto actions of the defendants in the Waterbury conspiracy case might be heard dur ing the December term of the su- preme court of errors dimmed today with the issuance of the supreme court docket. Neither case is listed as ready for argument. Neither case is even mentioned as on the docket.
 Questions Right
 Notice of appeal has been filed in the quo warranto action, which at- tacks the right of Hugh M. Alcorn to serve as special prosecutor in Waterbury. No assignment of errors has been made, however, and this is only one of the actions to be taken by Attorney Thomas F. McD Donough before the supreme court record can be printed.
 No notice of appeal has been filed in the mandamus action of former Controller Daniel J. Leary, which is an alternative attempt to seek &C., cess of the grand jury's minutes. The deadline for the filing of the appeal is Tuesday, the opening of the trial date.
 Two weeks are allowed for filing of appeal, and Judge Simpson de- nied the mandanius week ago Tuesday.
 All cases on the docket will be assigned for hearing at session Wednesday, November 30 at 10 a. m.
 Two Waterbury cases are ready for arguments on appeal. They are:
 Petronella Lusas against the St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church Corporation, an appeal of the plain tiff from decision of the common pleas court.
 Largay Appeal
 The appeal of the Largay Brew ing Company from an award made by Compensation Commissioner James M. Lynch in the case of Robert J. Wilson. Judge Earnest C.. Simpson reserved decision in the matter and ordered 1t heard by the supreme court. One Litchfield coun- ty appeal of interest is that in the divorce case of Dr. Harry A. Do- chelli against Pauline Vita Dochelli.
 It had been presumed that either the quo warranto or the mandamus action of the conspiracy case would be tried in December. Judge Simp- son commented. in denying the mandamus that the appeal might be heard and decided before any testimony was heard at the trial, if quick action in the appeal were talk en.

Washington, November 26. Securities and Exchange Commission will decide at a public hearing January 16 whether to re- move the capital stock of the Transamerica Corporation from the listings of the New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco stock exchanges. The order for the hearing was issued simultaneously with charges that a series of financial documents filed with the SEC by the corporation, $100, 100000 Pacific coast investment and holding com pany, contained false and mislead- ing statements of material facts" The SEC named Henry Fitts to pre- side at the hearing.
 In San Francisco the corporation said the charges appeared to be based entirely on theory of ac- counting" and expressed confidence that it would be vindicated. A statement signed by A. P. Giannini, chairman of the board and John M. Grant, president, asked that the public reserve judgment until we can avail ourselves of the right guaranteed to every American citi- zen by the Constitution, that he shall not be, judged except after a fair and impartial trial".

U. s. DELEGATES
 ENROUTE TOPERU
Pan=American Conference Group Boards Liner; Hull
 COnfers With Wilson

Aboard the s. s. Santa Clara, En- route to Lima, Peru, Nov. 26-CUP) United States delegates to the Pan-American conference at Lima, Peru, spent their first day aboard ship getting acquainted and dis cussing in general terms their mis- sion.
 Several of the delegates had not met previously. After introductions, they chatted informally, avoiding detailed discussions. They expected Secretary of State Cordell Hull, leader of the delegation, to com municate to them soon report on his talk with Hugh R. Wilson, am- bassador to Germany, just before sailing from New York at $40 p. m. yesterday.
 Wilson and Hull were together IS minutes in Hulls cabin, and the am- bassador's report on conditions in Germany, which he was called home to make, evidently was given in bare outline. The conference had the de- sired effect, however of impressing other delegates to Lima of the close relationship between European and Pan-American problems
 The Santa Clara's sailing had been delayed 40 minutes waiting for Wil- son to land from the liner Manhat- tan, speed to the Santa Clara's pier and make his report. The coast guard cutter Calumet took Wilson of the Manhattan at quarantine. He was taken to the docks, where an automobile and two police body guards were waiting to escort him to the Santa Clara.
 Hull declined to comment on Will sons report. He discussed the Lima conference, however, in a press in terview before sailing. He said the conference "offers a solid cause for hope in a world threatened with
