Negro Opera Star Will Perform
Artists Series Recital at Duke U.
Metropolitan Opera Com
pany mezzo-soprano Shirley
Verrett is a striking figure of
a woman, whether in the bril
liant gypsy garb of a Bizet's
"Carman," or in the formal
evening gown of the recital
hall
She also has a striking voice,
which has been acclaimed by
critics of England, Italy, Ger
many and the Soviet Union.
On April 10, Miss Verrett
will bring her artistry to Duke
University's Page Auditoruim
in an 8:15 p.m. song recital.
The program is a feature of
the University's 1969 Artist's
Sales.
Within the past ifve years
the New Orleans born diva has
rstablished herself as a singing
star of the first magnitude.
Last year, before her Metro
politan Opera debut, Bliss
Verrett has sung Carmen in
Florence, Italy, and other
cities; had impressed the critics
in London with three major
mezzo-soprano roles in Co vent
Garden.
When she sang the role of
Queen Elizabeth in the Ameri
can Opera Society.s produc
tion of "Maria Stuarda" the
New York Times reported,
"Her voice has blossomed into
a big, brilliant instrument,"
Miss Verrett "sang the role
majestically," declared the
New Yorker critic.
For the Negro mezzo, her
triumphs in Spoleto, Italy,
with the Bolshoi Opera in
Moscow, ta the Lausanne
(Switzerland) Festival, in New
York's Lewisohn Stadium, and
at Montreal's Place des Arts,
together with recitals and
opera appearances across the
United States, have served to
build her reputation to a high
place among all today's artists.
At Duke, Miss Verrett will
be heard in arias from Handel's
"Alcina;" a group of four
Brahms lieder with texts from
scriptures in I Corinthians and
Ecclesiastes; and the aris
"Amour, viens rendre a mon
ame," (Love, Return to my
Soul), from Gluck's opera
"Orpheus and Euridlce."

Interest Deduction Errors
Can Slow Up Refunds
Greensboro, N. C. Ques
tionable interest deductions
slowed down the processing: of
hundreds of thousands of re
fund claims last year, J. E.
Wall, District Director of In
ternal Revenue for North Car
olina, said today.
In some cases an examina
tion of the interest deduction
uncovered an error which
meant additional taxes to be
paid. In others, the return
was accepted as filed, but the
refund was delayed by the
time required to examine the
interest deduction.
Taxpayers planning to
claim an interest deduction on
their 1968 federal tax return
should be sure to read the in
structions carefully to avoid
errors—and refund delays,
Wall, advised.
For taxpayers who itemize
deductions, the interest paid
on a home mortgage, a bank
loan or debt may be deducted
if the taxpayer is legally re
sponsible for the payment. In
terest paid for another person
is not deductible, Wall said.
A common case where an in
terest deduction is disallowed
is when a parent makes a
mortgage payment for his
children. The parent's claim
for an interest deduction is
disallowed unless the home is
in his name.
