Heard last night IN recital al

tive California lyric soprano,
Evan Harbrecht. who presented
q program of tried-and-true art
songs, opera arias and folk songs.
Despite her youth. Miss Har-
brecht is an old trouper who
has been concertizing in the
West since her childhood, has
appeared in opera in Los Angeles
and at Tanglewood, and has
sung in Europe both as concert
artist and as soloist with the
famed Salt Lake Tabernacle
Choir.
Unfortunately. it appeared
evident from yesterdays per-
Torrance that Miss Harbrecht
who can sing quite well if she
chooses to do so. has not as yet
made up her mind whether she
is a serious artist or an enter

was not really successful ir

Lyndon reduced by keeping his calories down to
