NORMAL GLEE CLUB ENTHUSES THRONG Chorus Gives Ploasing Program at Its Annual Goneert L. Ethel Prior of Plainville, musie- al supervisor of the State Normal school, made her publio debut as conductor of the Gles club of the school last night and had the pleas. ure of hearing §0 young women re- spond to the meaning of her baton in exemplary fashion. The large audi- ence which filled the- state normal auditorium was favorably dispesed toward the conductor and her chorus and liberally evinced its pleasure in the usual manner. Alfred Cohn, vielinist, of Hartford, was the as- sisting artist. Ida Levin was the efficlent aceompanist to the chorus, while Stanley Usher was at the key- board for the violinist. The annual concert of the State Normal Glee club always _fills the beautiful auditorium. Last night was no exception. The chorus {] friends, kin and relatives, while the general public likewise is interested. The total of automobiles parked around the school last night indicat- ed folk from near and far were bent upon partaking the musical feast and enjoying the gladsome occasion. Miss Prior led the chorus like a veteran. Although the musical abil- ity of the chorus is a matter of chance, some years producing mark- 4 talent at the school while at other years furnishing less of the same, it remains for the director of develop the best that is in the material. The result last night gave every evidence ot careful training, with special re- gard for expression and interpreta- tion. Following was the program: The Night Has a Thousand Eyes— cesesseesses . ..

Bertaud, wite of the plane’s navigator, have become accustomed to looking danger i the face. Like the Bellanca birdmen, neith- er woman suffers any undue appre- hension as the hour for the take- oft of the Columbia in the race to Parls draws near. “We are not at all fearful for the success of the flight,” Mrs. Chamber- lin said. “I have the utmost confl- dence in the Columbia and feel that she will arrive safely at the goal. Not long ago I went along on a test flight in the Columbia. I can visual- the time the Columbia takes off until we get word that Paris is won?
