RING SERIES
 IS COMPLETED
Miss Vera Curtis Gives Stirring Description of
 "Gotterdammerung"

Miss Vera Curtis, formerly of the Metropolitan Opera in New York, concluded series of lectures last night on Wagner's Ring of the Nie- belung. "Gotterdammerung" (Twi- light of the Gods) which climaxes the dramatic cycle was discussed last night by Miss Curtis who played some of the outstanding passages and motives. The "Rinf" dramas are allegorical, she explained, but teach the great moral lesson of the triumph of love kindness and for bearance.
 "Gotterdammerung" complete the story, started in "Rheingo1d", and continued in Die Walkure" and "Siegfried". In the last musical drama of the cycle, she explained comes the down fall of the gods. This opera, like the preceding ones, is highly dramatic, the orchestra score forming large part of the story. In this all the great motives of the cycle are repeated, the ring made from the stolen gold, the sword, and others which had im- portant meaning in the other operas. Through these motives Miss Curtis pointed on in her lec- lures, Wagner more or less gave articulate speech through the medium of the orchestra. Insofar as it was possible Miss Curtis il-

|M'GRATH WOULD RUN FOR MAYOR
Ready as G. o. P. Candi- date-WOuld Run on In-
 dependent Ticket

Taking issue with the move of Attorney Frederic c. Smedley, who announced recently that should the proposed city manager charter fail of accomplishment in Waterbury he (Smedley) would be a candidate for mayor on the Socialist ticket, George McGrath, well-known World War veteran and active in Repub- lican politics since the war, today announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for mayor.
 His candidacy is dependent, how ever, on no party, should the J. Warren Upson organization fail to recognize his claim to top position on the fall Republican ticket. MT. McGrath, in event of being "over- looked" by the organization, will be candidate on an Independent Republican ticket, he assured The Democrat today, and believes that he will be the gainer by MT. Smed- ley's defection to Socialist ranks.
 eff Republican can be turn coat to the extent that he sub- scribes to the tenets of Jasper Me- Levy (mayor of Bridgeport)," MT. McGrath remarked, "then it Is time that a real Republican undertook leadership" The reference was forceful and concerned MT. Smed- ley to whom MT. McGrath directed the question:
 "Does he believe in the principles of McLevy which would see an ap- pointive school board controlling the young people of Bridgeport?"
 MT. McGrath decided that should this be the case, and Mir. Smedley advocated lone individual control ling the faith of school children, then, Che would advocate a govern ment for Waterbury like that in Spain."
 Willing to take issue with Atty. Smedley, erstwhile merit system ad- vocate, on matters of government, MT. McGrath offered challenge for debate, a "duel" by letter, contro- versy of any variety.
 So far as qualifications for mayor on the Republican ticket are con- cerned, MT. McGrath offered that he has been a Republican since re- turning from the World War; is in the roofing and painting busi- ness, was born in Waterbury, at tended St. Mary's school, and isn't "too proud of the way Republican affairs are going, what with MT. Smedley turning Socialist"
