GLEE CLUB FORMED BY STOCK BROKERS Wall Street Has Musical Or- ganization Al Its Own New York, May 31 (®—Wall street's own glee club took part for the first time in the grand concert of the asseciated glee clubs of America just held in Madison 8quare Garden. ‘The Downtown glee club, a strict- ly non-professional organization made up of bankers, brokers and every variety of business men in the Wall street district, is not yet three years old, but has wen the highest praise of music critics. Channing Lefébvre, 34-year-old eorganist of Trinity church, decided in January, 1927, that the financial dustrict ought to have a hobby en- tirely separate from stocks, bonis and car loadings. He organzed the club, which has no connection with Trinity church. Its membership of 160 includes old and young men representing 75 different banks, business houses and law firms. Once every week, after the tickers have become silent this group of singers meets for a re- hearsal of Brahm's Lullaby, Har- ling's Persian Tdyl and other items in their repertoire of 78 composi- tions. Alden D. 8tanton, manager of the largest apartment house -in the world on Park /avenue, is president of the club. Mr. Lefebvre is conduc- tor. Through their united efforts they have achieved the unysual record of running a glee club on non-com- mercial but strictly business lines. A rehearsal starts at 5:30 p. m. and ends at 7, even if in the middie ©f & measure. At the club's concerts twice yearly the opening number gets under way exactly on the min- ute and an elaborate system of dis- cipline insures that every member is presént on the stage for the first note. The club is rapidly extending its reputation and activities. In addi- tion to two principal concerts each year, at Chirstmas and in the spring, the program has come to include occasional minstrel shows and spe- cial concerts for the blind. |ing tablets in a handy _bottle, zafe Beventy-tive of the eriginal mem- bers still are active and the mem- bership has risen from 100 during the first year to 160 at the present k time. FRENCH RIVIERA HAS PoOR SEASON Resorts Loss Millions and Pro- prietors Make Complaints By J. F. HANSOOM (Associated Press Correspondent) Nice, France, May 31 UP—A hus- | 4 dred thousand tourists who neglected to include the French Riviera in their itineraries this year are re- sponsible for a business men’s re- volt against the municipal govern- ments of the leading Riviera resorts. The past season has been one of the leanest since the war. Nice had 10,000 fewer tourists than last year. The average tourist spends a week in Nice. That means a loss of 350,- 000 tourist days, which rolls into much money. Cannes, Menton, Juan les Pins and 8t. Raphael suffered corresponding decreases. Business men in all the resorts have organized to force their muni- cipal authorities to do something to stop the tourist seepage which this year has resulted in millions of dol- lars' loss to some of the hotels. On the other hand, the Italian Ri- || viera has enjoyed its most prosper- ous season since 1918, In some| ! measure this is due to the fact that roulette is played at 8an Remo and many tourists who ordinarily visit| | Monte Carlo were frightened away by reports of trouble in the princi- | | pality. However, an order from Musso- lini is credited by the French with| | being chiefly responsible for the sud- den rush of foreigners. He ordered the municipal authorities and the police to see that every tourist went away contented. Overcharging died overnight. The most important hotel keeper would suffer at the hands of the law if a tourist's complaint was found valid. In S8an Remo the hotels add 10 per cent to the bill as a service charge and not even a bell- | | boy will accept a tip. The Chamber of Commerce of Nice estimates that of the city's missing 50,000 spenders, 30,000 went to Italy, 10,000 to Egypt and 10,000 to 8pain. Their general reform pro- gram which aims to entice the miss- ing 50,000 back next year, includes extensive international advertising, | | strict watch on prices charged tour- ists, and a definite program for beau. | | fifying the various cities.
