FOLLOWING HIS discharge, he
returned to opera with the La-
Scala, Milan and San Carlo com-
panies with whom he toured for
five years.
During one of his European
performances, he was heard by
the manager of the Metropoli-
tan, who promptly signed him
for the 1926 operatic season.
An immediate sensation with
American audiences, Pinza has
risen in musical stature to the
point where many critics declare
that there is no person alive who
sings so well as he.

PINZA HAS an operatic reper-
toire of more than 60 roles, which
form the basis of Thursday's Ann

News Expert
Will Lecture
To Journalists
The fifth in a series of Uni-
versity Lectures in Journalism will
feature J. C. Oestreicher, director
of the foreign news department of
International News Service speak-
ing at 3 p.m. tomorrow in Rm. B,
Haven Hall.
Journalism majors and other
students will hear Oestreicher's
views on "Social and Ethical Re-
sponsibilities f Foreign Corre-
spondents in a rucial Age."
* * *
At 8 p.m. in Kellogg Auditorium,
Oestreicher will deliver a lecture
for the general public on "Duties
of the American Press and Its
Components in a World of Propa-
ganda."
Oestreicher joined the New
York staff of INS in 1924, after
attending Columbia University.
He began as a copy editor, work-
ing from there into positions of
wire filer and editor of one of
the many leased wire circuits.
His work in foreign correspond-
ence began in 1927 when, as a
member of the cable news depart-
ment, he was assigned to the INS
London staff.
Upon his return to the United
States in 1929, Oestreicher became
night cable editor and two years
later was made day cable editor.
In 1933, he was appointed general
New York news editor and the
next year he was promoted to his
present position.
Oestreicher has traveled exten-
sively in Europe, directing coverage
of the Spanish Civil War and the
Italian-Ethiopian conflict. He was
instrumental in eliminating the
use of cable code from overseas
dispatches during World War II so
that INS would not risk mistaken
interpretation of news from its
correspondents.
An informal coffee hour in the
Department of Journalism will
follow Oestreicher's afternoon lec-
ture.

festival to be held Sunday will be

Choir directed by Maynard Klein
on WUOM and WPAG at 4:15 p.m.
today.
Isaac Watts music in various
settings will be presented. Dr.

Steel strips placed in each soon
gave indication that a "solution"
to motorists' problems has been
found. The metal in the salt so-
lution, as was to be expected, was
soon badly corroded.
THE COST to the city of using
the new preparation would be ap-
proximately $1,000 a season, ac-
cording to Sandenburgh.
But motorists approached yes-
terday were unanimous in the
opinion that the cost would be well
worth the results when the ice
