AST evening's concert at Pan American Union, as it was, | weather in nt: he | chilly discomfort of the first program | given in the Aztec Gardens, proved a distinct pleasure in every respect. The program comprised several out standing works of prominent Latin- | American composers with some favor- | ite melodic numbers repeated. Two soloists divided the honors of the eve- ning, the Mexican contralto, Rosal- | mira Colomo singing two groups of songs and Christine Stewart of the Lisa Gardiner Studio of the Dance presenting two Latin American dances. Miss Colomo has the gift of pro- jecting the feeling in her songs over to the listeners who may not under- stand the language. Her voice, while not large or of great carrying power, has a warm, sweet quality which she uses for interpretive color with fine discrimination. She is pre-eminently a singer of songs not striving for dra- matic effects, but allowing the lyric quality of her tone full play. A lovely folk song from Mexico, “Car- mela.” was included in her first group together with “Mirama Asi" by de Fuentes (Cuba) and “Cancion de Las Hadas” by Velasco in which she was accompanied by Mrs. D. C. Book Another group, sung with the band accompanying. finished charming “Cielito Lindo" by Fernan- | dez of Mexico which aroused an en- thusiastic acclaim for the artist from the audience. In appropriate costumes Miss Stew- art, whose artistic dancing is well known in this city, gave the Guajira dance “Por Ti Sola” by J. A.

The aboriginal suite * by Justin of Haiti, embell a modern idiom, was an intensely in- teresting number. The poignant. dra- matic “The Death of the Inca.” in the special arrangement made by Capt Darcy, was given another hearing. The orchestral numbers concluded with a repetition of the grand scenes from the opera “Il Guarani” by Carlos Gomez of Brazl, whose birth anni- versary will be marked July 11. Maria Grever's lovely “Te Quiero Dijiste” was beautifully played by Clarence E. Hurrel, trombonist of the band, while the Colombian composer Velasco's trio for xylophone *Re- cuerdos del Pasado” was given a first rendition by Joseph L. Young, Charles D. Hershey and Clyde Bowman, solo- ists of the band. The musicians were | heartily applauded after each number until the noble strains of “The Star { Spangled Banner” brought the con- |cert to an end. By the Way— Beth Blaine AF.D!:NT Democrats should take a leaf from Senator J. Hamilton Lewis book of “complete concentration,” re the incident of his refusal, due to a previous engagement, to dine with His Excellency the Ambassador of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and Mme. Troyanovsky It was at the dinner given this week at the embassy for our Ambassador to Russia, Mr. Willlam C. Bullitt, and His Excellency, the Royal Italian Ambassador Signor Augusto Roeso, that at the 'nth hour, just as the host ‘wes about to lead the procession into dinner, Senator Lewis was announced No one was more surprised at his appearance than Mrs. Lewis! Diplomacy went into a hasty huddle in the pantry, and with a murmured apology from the host that “unfortunately there was no lady for the Senator to escort into dinner,” the guests were led with cere- mony into the great dining room of the very palatial mansion on Sitzeenth street. Now, the issue in view is, did the Semator realize his error, and what other hostess was minus a dinner guest? * % ¥ LACK dresses seem to be the order of the day, whether it is a case of goir into mourning for sins or just the uncommonly cool weather we are having, is undetermined. ‘Yesterday, lunching at the Mayflower, there was a group of smart ladies all attired in black and white—mostly black.
