Additional Income Provided by Opera Appearances and Record Singing. By the Associated Press. | KANSAS CITY, February 4.—Young stars in various fields who report their | annual income in six figures face an- | other contender for financial honors | ith the announcement that Marion Talley, Kansas City opera singer, earn- | od more thn 300,000 in less than two | years from concert tours alone. Part of the income of the young so- | prano, who was 21 years old December 20, was revealed in a letter to the Kan- sas City Star from F. C. Coppicus, head of the Metropolitan Musical Bureau, and former manager of Miss Talley. He stated that her net earnings under his management totaled $334.892 since her concert career began, in the Spring of 1926. MARION TALLEY. If I go to Europe T will be pleased, but if T don't go 1 will not be disappointed I never worry about anything, because I am a fatalist.’ It was pointed out that from the time she first gained recognition while sing- ing in a church here in 1922, st avoided a professional career on the plea she wished to study, and that her debut in New York was postponed for a year for this reason Marion is now represented by Geogge igles of New York. who succeeded Mr Coppicus as her manager.

This amount, Mr Coppicus said, did not include Marion's earnings from her Metropolitan opera engagements or her | income from her phonograph record royalties. He explained that in report- ing that amount he had deducted all expenses except hotel accounts for those | of her family who accompanied her. Mr. Coppicus announced that when | Marion recently left the management of | g, the Metropolitan Musical Bureau. which | is not a subsidiary of Metropolitan Overa, he advised her to retire for a llml' to permit further study. “On Miss Talley's recent concert tour the music critics of many cities suggested in their reviews of the repre- sentative concerts that Miss Talley | should retire for a vear or two in order to study further,” he said. “I made the same suggestion to her.” No statement was made by Miss Talley concerning her plans for the im- mediate future, except that she did not expect to appear in concerts this Summer following the close of the Metropolitan opera season.
