| BRINGS OLDRUSSIA . TOLOGAL THEATER Choir Sings, Plays and Dances| * Folk Song Program An audience that jammed the ¢ Palace theater yesterday afternoon was lulled by the charms of music from old Russia, Children and grown-ups dressed in costumes from a by.gone day danced and sang. | suiting their actions to the moods. | The audience arowsed itself to a high | tension of satisfaction at the Bpectacle on the stage, beat time to the liiting folk songs, applauded ve- hemently, called for more. It was the annual show of E. A.! Serebrennikoff, leader, conductor, / chief performer, and central sun around which all the other luminaries revolved. Here is'a man | of unexampled energy in the cause of music. Scarcely are the tots in the | difference 80 long as Mrs. Serebren- nikoft’s agile fingers made the mel- ody soar supreme. Thus {he orches- tra made godd, whether in en- sembles or furnishing the back- ground for the dances. The playlet, “Russian Wedding.” Dbeing an excerpt from the opera “Czar's Bride,” was a riot of color. pantciiime and song. If the audience could have had its way the entire affalr could have been repeated | forthwith. Little Ludmila Zaiko, five years of age, earned an ovation all for her little self. Not in the least baffled or | made nervous by the audience she danced with beautiful precision, do- ing intricate steps without a hitch and smiling in triumph when it was over. An audience easily warms up to a talented little toddler and this one nearly went wild with delight, A young soloist who ajso created quite a stir was Willlam Conner, | who plays the violin. Friends claim for him that he is a little prodigy. He certainly has made a fine start. The choir was made up of young and old, although the young pre- dominated. The older folk, including male voices, provided® a sonorous background for the boys and girls.

The pre- dominating minor keys suggested the hard life led by the peasants in the old days, which was inevitably veflected in the music that unknown bards provided. The program was a lengthy one {and individual mention of all par- ticipants is impossible, Some of the | music presented came from high sources, pieces from Russian operas, including one from “Eugene One- gin" Tschaikowsky. But the folk ngs held their own with the oper- atoe excerpts; and as usual, “The Moon Shines Bright,” one of the liveliest of dance tunes, &reated quite a furore.

Chicago Holds Boston To Tie in Hockey Game Chicago, Nov. 26 (UP) — The Chicago Black Hawks held the | powerful Boston Bruins to a 1-1 tie here last night in the National Hockey league. Eddie Shore, Boston's great de- fense man, put the Bruins in an carly lead when he teamed up with Wieland for a score in 6:05, In less than 10 minutes Wentworth took a pass from Keats and flipped the puck into the net for the Black Hawks.
