The chorus of the Women's City Club, Gertrude Lyons, director, presented an unusually fine program. well arranged, short and effectively prepared, in the clubhouse, on Jackson place, last night. The large audience seemed keenly ap- preciative. Assisting the chorus was a violin ensemble, directed by Josef Kas- par; Jean Westbrook, violin soloist, and Janet Coon, whistler.

In the program offered last night by the Harvard Glee Club in their annual concert at the Hotel Mayflower, the very high standard first set by this group was immediately and consistently evident. This club has no peer among the male choral clubs of this country, or, indeed, in the world, toda; It is not that they have finer voices than any other group, although there are some exceptionally fine ones among the 60 who are members of the group, but rather that they are trained so per- fectly that every note is delightful to the ear. Dr. Archibald T. Davison is an acknowledged master as well as ploneer in directing this type of choral work. The popularity of this performance was evident in the enthusiastic response from the notable gathering of music lovers and soclety folk who heard the club last night, and repeatedly called for encores. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, in the first box, was one of the most en- thuslastic individuals present. Especially effective was the group of Italian folk songs. A lively Irish folk song, “The Galway Piper,” was well liked. ~ “Plorate, Filii Israel,” from “Jephthah’s Daughter,” by G. Carissimi, | gave group the best opportunity to demonstrate more serious work.

The latter had been thought dead earlier in the play when one of Pancho’s henchmen fired a bullet at his head. The bullet on the first oc- casion, however, although rendering him unconscious, merely grazed his forehead. The play ends with the departure of Pancho, who explains to his friend Jones that the latter, with Pell, the husband out of the way, is free to marry his former sweetheart, Mrs. Pell. Pancho also robs a bank, offers to re- turn stolen cattle and steal more cattle for his friend Jones. Charles Hampden, taking the part of Jones’ uncle and an old man butting into everything, furnishes cause for got rich while others went to fight for their country, is offered in “The Bad Man"” presented by the Natlonal Theater Players in the E street play- house this week. . There is good acting throughout the production, during which the audience is cleverly gotten in a frame of mind whereby it is almost ready to condone the outlawry of Pancho Lopez, Mexican bandit, who proves to be a kind of hero in spite of his villainy. The part is taken by Robert Brister, who was at his best in the role. ‘The scenes are laid on a cattle ranch fi: Texlu near te'he Mexican border and e plot centers around various at-| 9 {empts at. possesion of the ranch owned |\ performs well.

Mrs, Lyons stated that since last Fall, when she returned from Win- ston-Salem, where she took the training as conductor under the famous Ameri- can choral conductor, John Finley Wil- liamson, she has developed this chorus, following the method used by that founder of the Dayton Westminister Choir.

Jean Westbrook, who, in spite of her youth, already s with marked au- thority and good taste, as well as nice tonal quality, did the De Beriot con- certo very well indeed, and Janet Coon, the pretty whistler, who won the Post- Pickford contest, did her solo and en- core charmingly.
