HE three-day Metropolitan Opera. '™ season in Baltimore was inaugurated | last evening at the Lyric Theater in brilliant fashion. The opera presented was “Rigoletto,” interpreted by Lily Pons_as Gilda, Giacomo Lauri-Volpi as the Duke, Richard Bonelli as Rigoletto and an all-star cast in the supplemen- tary roles. ; The capacity audience which filled | the boxes and overflowed from the | orchestra seats into several rows of standees was & distinguished gathering of the kind that does honor to opera presentations in a regal way. It was the typical gala atmosphere which sur- Tounds the Metropolitan's productions on its native heath and which is proof of the drawing power of its famous artists. Headed by the German Ambassador &nd his wife, Baron and Frau von Pritt- wits und Gaffron; menbers of the British embassy staff Mrs. Lawrence Townsend and others, many Washing- tonians have subscribed for the season. ‘The official guests last evening were the Robert J. Bylkley, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert A. Wagner, Mr. and Mrs, (the former Mabel Garrison) George Seimonn and Miss Alicc Preston. The presence of such favorites as Lily Pons, Lauri-Volpi and Bonelll in the three principal roles of the opera was the occasion for an ovation at each of their appearances. The sweet, ap- New Senator JOHN E. ERICKSON. CITIZENS’ RELIEF COMMITTEE URGED Miss Louise McGuire Advocates Aid to Overlapping Relief Agencies. Declaring the present chain of relief agencles overlaps in some sections and | a leaves gaps in others, Miss Louise Mc- Guire, social worker, speaking at a meeting of the Kalorama Citizens' As- sociation, last night advocated the for- matiop of a Citizens' Relief Committee to study conditions in the District.

Mrs. Wiley also outlined the District’s efforts to relieve :mexunploymene and provide for the des- itute. The meeting, held in the John Quincy Adams School, was presided over by Ar- thur B. Le P.
