Mullins SUNDAY, MAY 24, 192 Night Editor-STANLEY CRIGHTON "PLEASE DO NOT DRINK" According to a dispatch in the New York Times, Wesleyan university, lo cated in Middletown, Conn., has "deemed the difficulties pertaining to the' enforcement of the liquor laws of enough importance to be one of the principal subjects of a special notice sent to all alumni regarding the ap proaching installation of its new President, Dr. James Lukens Mc- Conaughy." The letter is said to urge the co- operation of the alumni in the uphold-. ing of the prohibition laws, not only for the effect that violations might have upon themelves and the under. graduate body, but also for the effect upon the visitors who will be pres- ent at the ceremony. There is something degrading in the fact that an American college feels calle$ upon to directly request it, alumni 'bdy to observe the laws of the nation while on the campus, and especially at the installation of a new president. Are the alumni so childish, so thoughtless, so degener- ate that their alma mater cannot trust matter to theft discretion? Or is it that the aitliriTies have failed to re- alize that ever students may grow up t' he respectable and respected citi- zens, regardl ess of their activities during college days.

There were six soloists in the per- formance of "La Gioconda" last eve- ning, and four of them. Mario Cham- lee, Frances Peralta, Kathryn Meisle and Henri Scott, are native-born Americans along with the whacking Gentleman Cowles. Zooks! i . s t ' ; x "La Giocondo," as far as I know, is nearly the limit in melodramatics; no opera, certainly, has more blood and bombast, and nonce, save "La FlozaF del Destino," ends more grandl tragicly. It is Sardoodledum trans- lated into music; sheer, unabashed theatre. Such pieces stand for and are the operatic tradition, big and maginifcent and pure lalapalooza. The story stamps through a tale of Latin appassionata, a. vast pageant of struttings and ' frettings. black in- trigr es and deeper infidelity. Thef roles are very nearly equally divided, with proportioned methodic arias forl each artists. The music is as regular, fully conventional and frankly melo- die. Much. of it, analyzed, can beF made cheap, but it is effective and in keeping. It is built for the col- liseums that are our modern auditori- ums, and thrills their enormous audi- ences with its powerful grandeur.

Of them all, Augusta Lensha, of course, was the greatest singer and artist.s here was something very solid and heroic in all her work. especially her mar- vellous aria in Act III. Frances Per- alta, incidentally, calmly squashed the burst of applause she deserved by jumping into her own aria before she had even received the conductor's signal-these clawing artists! F Mr. Ballester, carrying the major role of Barnaba; also did a remarkable piece of work. His voice is highly stacatto, fiery and resonant. Even more, he is a very great singing- actor with every emotion registered in the pantomime of his face. The converse, however, the annoy- ing habit of discarding his character for His individual personality, often marred Mr. Chamlee's godly lyric voice.Conmonly he stands as another of the shouting, sobhing Italians, but for all1 the sentiment it is a marvel- 'ous- tethnique: liquid and langorous, cogent, incomparably beautiful. Miss Meisle in her turn was extra- ordinarily effective with a surprising, powerful contralto, deep and luster- ons. Similarly, Henri Scott--of the oddly henna hair-and Frances Per- alta were the typical mesdames et messieurs of opera, flowering i the expansive warmth of the eternalF grand manner, dignified and com- manding. Finally, there is Earl Moore who is becoming fully adept in his conduct- irig and is already a certain master in choral work. "La Gioconda" show- ed every ear-mark of his patience and skill; more, the entire Festival moved with a finish and ease made possible only through his constant, detailed foresight.

Before the splendor of La Gioconda and the tremendous dramatic appeal of that tuneful opera, before the .x- citement of the discovery of the new and very great voice of Augusta Lenska, the afternoon fades, and j recollection fastens on one thing' alone, Frederick Stock with his mnagic baton. Frederick Stock and Beetho' ven; Beethoven and Frederick Stock. The two do not usually assroiate themselves; Stock's glory does not lie in Beethoven, but in Wagner, where the majestic sweep of the splendid tonal passages of the great German find instant response in the Teuton heart of the conductor. He is a fig- ure, defying description, dominating everything with impressive strength; his genius burns in his eyes, breathes in his haggard distented nostrils, radiates from his electrifying pres- ence, captivates the imagination. Ile is superbly suave infinitely dignified. The Beethoven Fifth Symphony is the biggest thing undertaken by Fred- erick Stock this year, if one excepts f the Brahms symphony given the night before last. It is one of the greatest symphonies ever written, unmarred by the cheapness that usually taints Beethoven. Theme after theme is giv- en out in immense beauty, and finally joins in essential unity and perfec- tion. The second movement is the favorite, developing in measured statliness to majeste grandeur whch Frederick Stock was able to produce in all its beauty.
