NEWCODAELD 8 T SEEN AS BOWANZA Enough Wealth to Rescue ;. Mexico From Depression, | El Tamblor Owner Says. By the Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, March 27.—A color- ful picture of the El Tamblor gold fleld in Sinaloa was painted in Excelsior today in a ‘telegram from Manuel Llan- tada, representative of the Union of Prospectors, which claims ownership of the fleld. Llantada said thi ihere is enough gold in the field to rescue Mexico from her present industrial depression. A small town has sprung up almost over- night at E1 Tambior Hill, on the slopes of which the precious metal was dis- covered a few weeks ago. tada, as an example to indi- cate the wealth of the mine, said that a man who had lost his job in Culiacan came to him a few days ago to beg a peso. He sent him to the fleld with an order to be allowed to dig out enough gold to satisfy bis wants. Two hours later he came back and sold him gold ore worth $56. There has been a rush of prospectors to the area, some of them using their Jjackknives to dig the metal from the tz veins. They have organized a union and at their behest the govern- ment is considering means of keeping foreign prospectors away from the fleld.

OSE who missed attending the concert at the University Club last night must be do- ing penance by now. For present at last night's musi- cal festivities were Marjorie Lowe, particularly well known soprano, and John Wiggins, who isn't so well known in this city, but who should rapidly become “0.

Althcugh on Marjorie Lowe. looking over the rogram one discovers that Miss Lowe is the pupil of this and that, and that she has studied here and there, and that the laurels which she has garnered are flung far and wide, one doesn’t really need all these introductions to make up one’s mind that this gracious artist has what is vulgarly known as a “swell” voice. Miss Lowe is an artist who knows what to do with herself. Neither clutching her hands with fervent gestures, nor wringing them in the “lamento” passages, nor swaying back and forth with graceless aban- don, as is the way with some—par- ticularly one prominent local mu- sician, she has that knack of inject- ing her personality into the numbers and keeping away from the anguish FOI‘ Easter, TOO!

Betz, Manager expressions of the average prima donna, which is a special delight. - Miss Lowe sang better than the best of them last night. She chose light, bright, sometimes inconsequen- tial, but always diverting, songs. There was Schubert, “Bergerttes of the Eighteenth Cen- tury,” there was Rybner and Ronald and Hagerman, and more than a touch of Irene Bordoni. Although it may be unjust to say so, th's ob- server discovered that Miss Lowe is a double for “La Bordoni” half way through the - first Schubert selec- tions. Just a dash of the same ex- pression, the use of the hands and the admirable manner in which cos- tumes were worn suddenly brought to mind the incomparable Parisian lady of the rolling eyes and the haunting voice. The impression be- came stronger as the evening wore on, and was evidently justified by the final proceedings. It was whis- vered, too, by a prominent member of the audience that they “thought it was a shame that Miss Lowe had such a good voice—that if she weren’t quite so good at doing Schubert and other immortals—they would back her to the limit any time against any Mme, Bordoni in any light opera in the country.” Mr. Wiggins played sturdily three Chopin numbers and other selections there were Fjeril Hess Guest Artist at Fine Glee Club Concert. APPIARING as the guest artist on the pi of the fourth annual concert of the Elizabeth Som- ers Glee Club, Fjeril Hess, known for her costume singing of folk songs, last night was well recelved by an audience that filled Barker Hall, Y. W. C. A, to capacity. Her program, split into two groups, embraced in the first the legendary lore of Latvia, Polgnd,+Russia and Finland, and in the second those of the new-born Czechoslovakia. She played the taro patch, a stringed in- strument which differs little either in appearance or sound from the ukulele, She passed in rapid suc- cession from the songs of Russia, notable for their deep melancholia, to the lighter, more fantastic tunes of Finland, and won much applause in each and all of them. ‘The performance of the Glee Club, under the direction of Mary M. Burnett, last night indicated that it is among the foremost of the city or- . ganizations of its type. “Elfin Dance” and “PFirst Primrose,” two Grieg numbers; a thirteenth century folk song-of old England by John of Fornsete, “Slumber Song” by Gretch- aninoff and folk songs of Finland and Russia made up the program of the Glee Club.

MONROVIA, Calif, March 27.— Manuel L, Quezon, president of the Philippine Senate, who has been il here for eight months, said last night he would leave for Washington May 17 to discuss plans for another drive for Philippine independence with members of the delegation from Manila now at the Capital.

Since that time he has been under the care of physicians, who said _he had con- tracted tuberculosis. Recently his health has shown marked improvement. HOLD 2 AS PLOTTERS ON LIFE OF MUSSOLINI Rome Police Report Seizure of Dynamite and Bombs in Men’s Hotel Rooms. By the Associated P ROME, March 27—A box of ‘dyna- mite and several bombs were reported by police today to have been found in the hotel rooms of two Italians ar- rested March 4 in connection with an alleged plot to assassinate Premier Mus- solini. The two men were Ersilio Bel- Joni and Luizi Delfini. The men now are said to have been acting independently, instead of having been affiliated with the bombing gang headed by Michele Schirru, a natural- ized American citizen, who was arrested February 3 and is awaiting trial. At the time of his arrest Schirru had two high explosive bombs in his bag- gage. He fired several shots at police and then shot himself in the head. After his arrest police gave out an al- leged confession, in which Schirru, said to have lived in New York, admitted that he was an anarchist and planned to kill Mussolini.
