A State Opera Company For
Continued From Page One)

There are twelve cities of over five thou
sand population in the state. Each one of
these presumably. has an auditorium in
connection with the high school, or SINH
lar building where a production could be
staged. The company l have in mind would
be a statewide organization with head
quarters say in Helena, at the Shrine Audi
torium. From there it would go on tour
to all the towns where the facilities were
available. 1t would be in reach of practi-
cally the whole population of the state,
and would play these towns at stated in
tervals.
An opera company requires personnel
numbering about 1875. This is divided into
singers and chorus and ballet people, about
so. orchestra of about so, stage technicians
and administrative people about 25. AS l
said before, when you start talking about
people, you start talking about payrolls.
These 125 people could be paid fair sal
ary for a starting season of, say sixteen
weeks for one hundred thousand dollars
Scenery and costumes, rental of halls where
necessary, and travelling expenses for the
company could be handled for another hun
dred thousand. You could even afford
some stars if you would appropriate $3.50,
900 for the entire season.
A sixteen week season would allow the
people of the whole state to see perhaps
two operas produced by professional COM
pany and brought to them at low admis-
sion price. The money gained from admis-
sions would go into the fund originally ap-
propriated by the Legislature and be used
to further the enterprise If you play to
100000 people, you will make 100000,
and if publicity and local organizations are
employed to interest the people
in the project, it will become self-liquidat-
ing in short time.
The product has to be good. 1t has to be
good enough so that people will pay one
dollar apiece to leave their radios for an
evening to see your show. The operas must
be in English, in good translations, not
N the translations printed in the piano
scores. The University could have great
share in the product by furnishing live,
ingable translations for use of the COM
oany. Or some of the standard American
light operas such as 'Oklahomap' or 'Fin-
ans Rainbow" could be given at first.
The scenery must be colorful, the costumes
must look fresh, and you must have good
musicians to present a good show.
Ny point is that all these things can be
btainable in Montana, without recourse

You would of necessity rely largely OF

with willing young people who would take
hold of this idea with all the Imagination

what is done here with the orchestra and

l have been emphasizing up to this point
a state-supported opera company, but l
also envsage the time when state-sup-
ported symphony orchestra could be real
ity. Opera is the most direct approach to
an unschooled musical audience. By pro-
viding drama, scenery, costumes, action,
as we'll as music, it is easier to reach this
audience through opera than through the
more abstract forms of music
Is this idea hard to broach to the winter
wheat farmer in eastern Montana, or to
the miner in Butte? Probably. But if you
put it in a dollars-and-cents basis, working
your organization through the local service
clubs, farmers organizations and so forth,
getting the unions behind you and creating
growing spirit of pride in what the state
can do along cultural lines, it should not
be impossible to persuade people that
fifty-cent per capita per year tax will bring
them glorious field of living entertain
ment right in their own towns which they
can call their own.
Montana is justly proud of its tourist
trade attracted mainly by the beautiful
scenery and the opportunities for city
dwellers to enjoy outdoor life for brief
The opera company could be used
to attract another type of visitor. and a
very desirable one-the music-lover An
opera festival given among Montana's nat
lral surroundings could be a nationwide
and would add tremendously to
he glamour Montana already holds for out
'iders. Here is a selling point for practi-
people.
The feeling in musical circles is that
support of music by the smaller units of
government is inevitable, and personally 1
hink the sooner it happens the better for
ii concerned We are daily wasting our
-outhful talent for lack of opportunity.
1ere in Montana, state which prides it
elf on it's homogeneity, where the popu-
alton, though widespread is not over
yhelmingly large, you have an opportunity
o build such an organization with small

BY DOUGLAS TUOMEY

For great many years people
who bought new houses were by
no means pleased with the closet
space they found in their new
homes.
In fact the skinny storage
space available in the average
development houses became so
vell-known that prospective
buyers looked Al the closets all
most as soon as they entered the
building.
AS builders came TO recognize
the fact that they could not get
a top price for a house with in
adequate closet room, they grad
ually shifted their policy. so that
now better space is TO be found
in most new structures. However,
that does not help those who
bought before.

probability, one shelf high up
near the ceiling.
The No. suggestion by the
experts is that the clothes
hanger bar be moved up about
S inches. That another shelf be
installed, as there is no sense in
having 2 feet of space between
the one shelf and the ceiling
simply to accommodate a hat
box inches high. Sloping shoe
shelves should also be installed.
These changes offer so per cent
additional space in the average
implanted closet.

Black Leg Season
Difficult For Cattle

With the arrival of the black
leg season, authorities today warn
ed cattle raisers to be on the alert
for this disease, and to employ
protective vaccination in danger
areas.
The American Foundation for
Animal Health pointed out that the
threat of blackleg increases with
the arrival of the pasture season.
The disease is one of the nations
greatest killers of cattle. 1t most
often strikes animals under two
years of age. The best safeguard
against it is vaccination.
Farmers who had their calves
vaccinated at one or two weeks of
age should have them re-vaccinaSeG
again by the veterinarian - - tiie
time they are four months old.
Blackleg spores are very difficult
to kill. The organisms that cause
the disease live in the soil and are
resistant to heat, cold, drought or
floods.
In areas where the disease has
occurred before, all calves should
be vaccinated by a veterinarian
each year, the Foundation suggests.

not made up his mind. He
preferred to let other candi-
dates for the Senate seat in
California know far in advance
that the field is open.
Will Knowland try for the
presidential nomination in
1860? To answer that ques-
ton requires an answer to an
other one-What will the polit-
ical situation be in 1860? Will
the administration have proved
popular? Will the voting pub
lie want a change? Will Vice
President Nixon, if considered
a logical nominee for the pres
idency. represent in the public
mind continuance of Eisen-
hover policies, and will the
voters want him or someone
else who has somewhat differ
ing views on major issues? To
put 1t another way. maybe the
country three and-a-half years
from now will be in a far more
conservative mood than it is
today. Maybe the interna-
tional situation will have
created issues that could con-
ceivably affect the trend in the
next presidential election.
1t is too early to appraise the
1860 outlook except to note
that for Knowland there is no
political future here in re-
naming as Republican leader
Of the Senate. He will have
accomplished all he can as a
Senate leader and will have
obtained invaluable experience
for the future if he should be
chosen as the Republican pres
ldential nominee in 1860 or
thereafter, for he is only AZ
years old now.
But if Knowland wants to
pe in the next presidential con-
test, he will have to run for
and be elected Governor of
Caiifornia-the second largest
State in the Union now. Also
if. Thomas E. Dewey wants to
be in the 1860 race. he will
have to run against Gov. Harri-
man and win the governor

tial nomination more fire.
