Conductor Saves Doy

Later in the same performance,
the audience nearly tripped up
the alto lead by clapping in the
middle of her song. When she tried
to resume. she lost the right note.
Fast thinking by the conductor
saved the day He jumped to the
piano. began playing an accom-
paniment in the faulty key the
singer had stumbled into. then
modulated the tune back to the
right key.
Again. the spectators were none
the wiser.
Last year. in their performance
of Princess Ida the group sur
mounted another near-cataStrophe
with the same spirit.
After building the stage sets. the
designers found they were too big
to be moved into Clendenen Hall
where the performance was to be
held. The sets were bent and
nearly ruined in the attempts to
get them into the hall. then hastily
rebuilt once the workers got them
inside.

these episodes and the long. hard

Ignition timing, for example.
plays an important part. and a
good general tune-up every 5000 to
5000 miles pays of in better mile
age. Often. the spark plugs will
need more frequent attention.
The choke and carburetor should
be cleaned and adjusted at 5000
mile intervals, too. The air cleaner
will normally require servicing at
least every 5000 to 1000 miles. Al
ways keep the chassis and running
