Praise Of Opera
By Local Group
Participants
Are Superb In
Their Roles
by Fannie Bethel

Artistic, stupendous, grippingly
dramatic was the gala performance
OF the opera Aida" last Friday
mite. at Detroit institute OF Arts.
The appreciative audience was deep
" impressed as was evidenced by
the generous applause which fol-
lowed each beautiful scene and
mounted to an inspiring climax as
the curtains closed on Verdi's mas
terpiece.
Maestro willard A. SCHNEIDER
who masterfully directed the talent
ed group, received the applause
which he so justly deserved for his
untiring efforts with the chorus
and cast, that waxed clear In the
sponlancity or action, sincerity and
enthusiasm OF every participant.
To liken the beautifully costum-
ed group TO a mammoth orchestra,
one might say that the lyric music
from the numerous throats has as
gorgeous a blending OF beautiful
harmonious tones as a symphony
Itself.
Yolande Maddox, who was superb
IN tho role OF Aida" would person
ify the smooth-toned. long-ranged
notes that escape the flute. The
voice OF julius Maxwell, who was
Rhadames the object OF her affec-
ton. can be likened 10 the clear
rich tones that exude from the
trumpet. while the vivacious Nell
Dohson Plante, super perfect, very
dramatic, and clever. we'll repre-
scented The viola. Joseph Cole, the
Amonasro, was excellent In his
portrayal dramatically and vocal
~: his tones may he favorably
compared 10 those OF a trombone.
Tall stately king OF Egypt. who
was Harold Smith sang with all
the force and penetrating qualities
OF the occasion. Carl Turner, as
dignihed Priest expounded his ver-
dict OF death" In the solemn. ex-
uberant. melodiously thunderous
tones OF the tube. The sweet voice
OF Pauline Frisbv sounded very
much like the lovely clear tones
that come from the violin.

AUTO DRIVER
MAKES SPEED
John Cobb Demonstrates
His Turtle Backed
Racing Car

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 19.-Brit-
ish speed driver John Cobb gave a
demonstration yesterday of what his
turtle backed racing car can really
do. He sent it over the Bonneville
Salt Flats course at speed of 1924
miles per hour Cobb said that he
probably would make another trial
run today and seriously try to set
a new world record next week. His
time yesterday was only 5.88 miles
under the record of 1892 miles per
hour made by Capt George Eyeston.
The record was established last year.
Captain Eyeston will not try to re-
gain his title this year should Cobb
be successful.
