Saturday, August li, 1934 THE NEW YORK AGE FAGE FlVg In the Realm of Music By RICHARD DURANT Abbie Mitchell Score In BY LUCIEN H. WHITE Mascagni's opera, "Cavalleria was brought to Harlem by Maestro Franchietta, who presented Abbie Mitchell, one of the race's greatest cantatrices, in the role of "San the young Sicilian maid whose trust was betrayed by peasant soldier, whs returned from the wars to find his sweetheart, married to a carter. The lack of programs made it but Alice crawiora sang tne roie of "Lucia mother of 'Carl Diton, baritone, portrayed and a young tenor, Parker 1 a fine interpretation of Turiddu's" part. The opera was presented on Thursday evening, August 3, at Salem M. E.

Church, 129th street and Seventh avenue, before a very small audience. Information is that the presentation was managed and controlled entirely by Signor Franchietta and his assistants, cn tirily independent of the church authorities or any of the church organizations, nd it is said, accounted for the lamentably small audience. Hampered further by stage limitation and paucity of scenery, it must be asserted with vigor and force that the singers gave a splendid rendition. Miss Mitchell was in glourious voice and gave unstintedly of that apparently unbounded store of dramatic art she possesses to the delineation of ''Santuzza's" hapless love experience. She was capably supported by Miss Crawford, whose voice found ample scope in the passages written for Carl Ditan found suitable opportunity for the display of his vocal acquirements in the role of the outraged husband, who finally slays "Turiddu" because of the tatter's amorous nassaees with the tnamVH "I nU" Unfortunately the identity of this quite pulchritudinous young lady was not definitely established, but in appearance and vocal ability she measured up to all requirements.

The singing of the "Turiddu" role was a definite high ligfct of ti frfnrtnanr and inrfiratra th arrival rt t.nA. t. offers great i 1 1 i ne cuuTus sang lusuiy ana wua line lonai quality, and added 1 much the evening's enjoyment The accompaniements were played in fine style by a lone and accomplished pianist, assisted at timis by Signor Franchietta in a four handed interpretation of the score. The audience gave an enthusiastic reception to Miss Mitchell and supporting members of the cast. Music Note Prof.

He admitted the proposition had been rejected by another employee of the local. He admitted bring staked to $3G0 by an individual not an ejfficial of the Local. To the query, whether he thought it proper for a Trial Board member to be a loan broker, he replied that he had asked several persons about it and they thought it was O. K.

This $300 had been dinned in my ears for some time. Someone had seen Aubrey's bank book and wondered whence it came was it tainted money.

Johns for the enthusiastic support that you gave to the Blumstein boycott movement which we understand has been entirely successful; for the first time in the history of this Negro community an economic boycott enforced by peaceful ticketing has coerced the parties against whom it was aimed into prompt compliance with the just demands made upon them for your part in this campaign we wish to tender you our sincere thanks. Revs.

Johnson, Imes and Powell must be commended on the active part they took in this movement. one altogether outside the field of their regular activities: these are young men of vision, who realize that economic progress for their people is a necessary corollary of the moral and spiritual standards that they seek to encourage. We wish to suggest that these same men try to establish an association of Negro ministers in New York Chy for the purpose of ensuring collective action on matters which so deeply affect the everyday lives of their followers: their duty to their race and their duty to God will frequently be coin cioent It has been a long time since the Negro public has been so thoroughly aroused over any controversy: it will not he satisfied with this Initial success Blumstein showed excellent judgment in capitutatipg when they knew that they were losing; they did everything that the could do to break the boycott before agreeing to accept the condition asked of them; the employment of thirty five colored clerks should man better business for them and eventually result in the employment of an even greater number. Further applieakm of the boycott however should not be precipitate; other employers should be git en time to take note of what has happened. Woolworth employs Spanish clerks to serve his clients in tht Latin colony north of 110th street and it is only fair to expect to have Negro clerks employed in these of his stores where the majority of the busi ness is done by Negroes; this goes for all other firms Harlem, To have required Blumstein to replace his entire trained white staff with new colored employees, a some extreme persons have held, would have been a noliev of auestianahlv merit and would have made he boycott futile; on the whole jt a a splendid victory and reflects credit on Johnson and his collaborators.

That the "Amsterdam News should have lent the columns el its editorial page to active opposition to the boycott is unfortunate; while it is generally conceded by studens ef this community that the interest and uplift of the Negro are not primary objects of this paper, yet we regret that it was used to fight against a cause so righteous ss this one was; the Blumstein advertisement which the paper has recently carried occu pies about thirty two square inches of space; was this the price for which the editor sold his conscience? Can it be that such was the mess ef pottage for which his rare was betrayed? The function of every Negrw news paper is to inspire, educae. awaken. and inform a passive but receptive peepw; not to glorify the case moral attitudes of its so called society lights nor to publicise and stress the misdemeanors of its social misfits; with so unlimited an opportunity to influence the minds of its Negre readers on the many questions of vital Importance to them, the paper referred to above prefers to spread tht scandals and 'crimes of Harlem across the front pages in the boldest type, catering to the tastes of morbid minds, and to devote whole col umns to accounts of rowdy cocktail parties and society slush, an empty glorification of things to be con demned. Negroes cannot afford to luptert and tolerate scandal sheets: is an imutt to us to suggest that such is what the Negro public wants; wt demand instead organs of high jmir nalistie quality, employing the minds and pens of men ef marked literary power, with a full sense of racial respnsibil'ty. who can demonstrate to the full that the Negro's cultural and sJddrast.

of tte writer. The ibu. MtM mmA 1M tint policy, of Ae, and mental attainments are limited only by the vicious economic and social barriers imposed by a hostile world. As to Theophilus Lewis, we nnwill ingly ask you to give us space in which to denounce him; great as is the affront to every Negro student to have his column offered on the same page as those of Kelly Miller, and the incomparable J. A.

Rogers, yet is plain that Lewis is a mere toot a hired servant who writes what he is told to write; from good authority we heard that the editor of his paper visited Blumstein' when he heard that they were yielding to ti boycott, asking them under no ur cumstances to abandon thejr original uncompromising stand against the movement; we do not vouch for the truth of this statement, but Lewis is certainly not responsible for ills ideas; we have alteady challenged his good faith; we can now affairm his superlative ignorance of the simple economic and philosophic theories that he attempts to discuss; we cannot waste time in reviewing them; Mr. Johns made a very serious error in vitupersing Mr. Lewis in The New York Age of July 14th; while eolosal abuse of the type Johmt show tred at him is all that Lewis deserves, it did nut become Johns and as students we must condemn it; his pen is too versatile for him ever to have had cause to descend to Lewis' level to administer the verbal chastisement he so richly deserved. The verisimilitude of Mr. Lewis' statements is what makes them so pernicious; otherwise his conclusions can be recognized as the overflow of a morerte mentality: it he is in doubt as to whether members of the Students' Literary Association are Negroes, we invite him to our spacious dubroom on the third floor of St.

The student organizations ef Har lem will support honestly the men who dare to hear the torch against the forces of oppression, discrimina tion, treachery and contemptible self seeking; they lead the way that we should go and our youth and strength will not falter when urged by the awakening consciousness of our en lightened minds.
