OPERKFUSS LA T0OLD DELETION Mary Garden Cut “Thais” 20 Years Ago, Chicago Com- pany Tells Amarillo. By the Assopiated Press. CHICAGO, April 18.—Editorial sheats | applied by Mary Garden to the opers, “Thais,” nearly 20 years ago were blamed by the Chicago Civic Opera Co. yesterday for what it termed an operatic 'emput that has been singing in tea- from Amarillo, Tex., to Chicago for last month. Mayor: Ernest Thompson of Amarillo set the Texas pot steaming again yes- terdsy with a charge that lhe touring %mpflnv clipped a scene from ? on the-Amarillo stage and lortmed its right to the full purse guar- teed. He dared the company to try eollcct the $1,600 balance igw¢he wum -~ Scene Cut in Final Act. ‘The opera management acknowledged yesterday that a scene from the final act. was deleted. But it added that the migsing scene has only once been played in America, at the initial production at the Manhattan Opera House in New #ork, when Oscar Hammerstein pre- sented Mary Garden and M. Renaud in the leading roles. After the perform- ance the two singers proposed to drop the 11-minute scene, a repetition of themes running through -the first act, and Hammerstein agreed. “The following Summer when Miss ‘Garden returned to France,” the opera company explained today, “she and M. Renaud went to Massenet, the com- poser, with the same statement. Mas- senet told them he had always known there was something wrong with this last act and that they hnd put their on it. He agreed to the cut.” lince 1910 the original version has never been sung in America, and in all Italian theaters, the Paris Opera and on the South American stage the score is as the Chicago Civic Co. sings it, the management declared. Attitude Not Announced. ‘The company, admitting it held a post-dated check for $2,500 from the Amarilio guarantors, which has been protested and remains unpaid, did not | announce what its attitude toward the claim would be. It intimated the con- troversy grew from a fancied slizht of Amarillo newspaper reporters by Miss Garden, and the “atiempt of a Texas editor, Gene Howe, -to break into the limelight again, just as he did on a m\luus occasion, when he criticized ‘Sevenl dnys after the Amarillo per- formance,” the statement “Howe was in El Paso, Tex., and is quoted as saying that Garden had tried to ‘high-hat’ Miss Garden arrived in Amarilio at 3 o'clock in the afternoon from a. long trip from Oakland, Calif., and when .asked for an interview at that time told the reporters she could not see them until after the performance needed the rest the afternoon would | afford her. At the conclusion of the opera. Miss Garden did receive news- paper peq!le and mlny others.” COXEY AUTO INVASION OF CAPITAL PLANNED l‘orou Mmg Reeruited to Start for ugton ‘When Special Adjourns. unemployed, years ago, # of invad carayan of Juxurious automobil Co: 0 celebrated his neventy- ¥ Tuesday by selling his ey Ty sl is organizing to district of every member of 1 He com- Maine to Utah.
