ALLEN McQUHAE, IRISH TENOE, CHARMS NORWICH AUDIENCE Allen McQuhae, Irish lyrie tenor, whe will eventually according to critics be- come the successor of John McCormack held an audience of 500 spellbound with the magic of his eclear resonant voice at the Community House on Tuesday even- ing when he appeared under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus for the bene- fit of the building fund. Mr. McQuhae was even better than when he appeared in this city a yvear ago and his numbers which brought his hearers visions of Er- in’s shores were all rendered with a voice that is flawless and technique that is masterly. . The opening number of the first group of songs, Where E'er You Walk, an aria convineed those who had nev- Mr. McQuhae that they were iistening to the voice of one would some time be the leading tenor of the singing world. Those who had heard Mr. McQuhae before sat in silent am- ticipation of what was to come as the program progressed. A group of Irish songs, Macushla, by Macmurrough: Fog- gy Dew and In Dublin's Fair City from the Old Irish and Molly Brannigan, by Villers Stanfotd, were rendered With ex- quisite beauty and an unconscious pathos which held his audience until the ‘last clear note had ceased reverberating through the hall. Then there was a storm of applause and Mr. McQuhae responded with That Tumble Shack in Athlone, which like his foregoing renditions was enthusiastically received. Mr. McQuhae's second group of songs,| while Irish in spirit and rendered with that rare beauty of fegling only posses- sed by Mr. McQuhae, Were of the com- posers of the continent. They included the masterpieces of Rubenstein, Grieg and Brahms. Perhaps the ‘one in Which Mr. McQuhae best displaved his remark- abl range of voice was in The Dream by Grieg. In this number Mr. McQuhae sang with expression and feeling that held his audience and as before he was forced to respond to the storm of ap- plause. ~ His encore was Those Endear- ing Young Charms. Mr. McQuhae's best display of his mastery of singing came in the fourth group when he sang Crying of Waters, by Campbell-Tipton. In this number he excelled all his past efforts and his au- dience thoroughly awake to the beauty of the number launched a torrent of appre- ciative applasuse at the conclusion. The concluding group of songs were of the Irish folk and were rendered Wwith genuine understanding by Mr. McQuhae, who naturally has a voice admirably adapted to the singing of these songs. Ralph Douglas, Mr. McQuhae's “ac- companist although overlooked by the audience in their enthusiasm for the singer, was an accomplished —musician, working in complete accord With Mr. McQuhae. The program follows: Where E'er You Walk . Haendel Macushla vevesssase.. MacMurrough Fo Dew ¢ In g]j‘lyxblm's Fair City .. O1d Irish Molly Brannigan . Villers Stanford The Dew Is Sparkling . Rubenstein Lilacs ++.+. Rochmaninoff Serenade Brahms The Dream . .. Grieg Crying Toater . Campbell-Tipton Charming Chloe . Germain Twilight ...... . Glenn Heart's Delight . . Rogers Bard of Armagh .

ZAVATINI IN SERIOUS CONDITION FROM WOUND Sylvia Zavatini, the Italian boy whe was accidentally shot Monday while hunting in North Stonington, passed a restless night and day at the Back- us hospital where he was taken Mon- day afternoon. The boy is in a very critical condition having suffered the loss of a large amount of blood and a terrific nerve shock. The physicians are hoping to be able tossave his arm although it is badly shattered. The boy was very delirious on Tues- day having only a few periods when he was rational. During these periods he claimed a man by the name of Sell- ers had the gun when he was shot and at other times he would contradict his statements. It was learned on Tues- day that the boy was shot by Robert Sellers of 78 Schodl street who has been employed as a motorman on the Norwich and Westerly trolley read. Mr. Sellers ran three miles to a tele- phone to get help after the accident and came to this city in the ambulance with Zavatini.
