Thrush, LEGINSKA IS READY TO PRESENT OPERA Noted Musician Will Be First ‘Woman to Conduct Own Composition. | By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, November 13.—Miss ! Ethel Leginska, English-born com- | poser of international renown, has begun to put final polish on a work which will make operatic history later this month. The opening performance of Miss Leginska’s “Gale” by the Chicago Civic | Opera on November 23 will introduce | to Chicago audiences the first woman | in history of music to conduct an| opera of her own composition pre- sented by a major opera company. | John Charles Thomas will sing the title role. The premiere, it was expected, will be a crowning achievement in the — career of the woman, who is already | cclebrated as a former conductor of the Montreal Opera Co. and as the first woman to wield a baton before | great symphony orchestras in Amer- ica and Europe. The one-act opera was based on a | dramatic century-old Cornish folk tale. The tale was first told in a novel | by Mrs. Dawson Scott, who wrote the | operatic libretto. The theme is crime | and punishment. Gale, a miser, kills his younger brother, Pascoe, when | he finds him stealing his gold. Dying, | Pascoe threatens to return in phan- tom form. Gale eventually goes mad | in the belief he sees his brother's | &pirit. i Bachelor Taxes. ‘ France now has 260,000 taxable bachelors, 60,000 more than in 1924, proving, observers declare, that a Frenchman cannot be taxed into mat- Frimony.
