Although there seems to be no information on this particular ope retta in the Library, it can be recog nized easily by selections from the score: “Tramp, Tramp, Tramp,” “Neath the Southern Moon,” “I’m Falling in Love With Someone”, “Italian Street Song”, and the Dream Melody “Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life, ’ ’ which runs through the operetta. The story is the typical “hero- heroine-villian ” one. Countess Ma rietta has run away from home and disguises herself as a French cas- quette girl, who has been sent by the king of France to New Orleans. Upon arrival she is befriended by Captain Dick, an American fron tiersman. Marietta immediately falls in love with him and at the same time arouses the affections of Etienne Grandet, known to the Underworld as the Pirate Bras Pique. Our villian realizes that Marietta is a Countess and wants to marry her, but he has a quad roon slave, Adah, andi Marietta does not believe in slavery. Of course, Entienne quickly auctions off Adah, who is bought by Captain Dick who offers her freedom. Our hero ine, only knowing that Captain Dick has bought a slave, turns from this noble gentleman and consents to marry Etienne. Finally all is set aright, and the Captain and Marietta live happily ever after. Jane Couzzens Clitherow, who will sing Marietta’s role, has sung with the San Francisco Opera Company, the NBC Symphony Orchestra with Toscanini, and on the Carnation radio program. Her husband, Mr. W. R. Clitherow, former NBC pro ducer, is directing the production. Other stars in the cast are Emil Meilstrup, Robert MeCuiston, Sally Marsh, Ronald Milroy, Louise High- smith, Frank Borden Hanes, and News Cont’d during this week. Although Hun gary has accused this country of conducting a “war of slander”, the U. S. has denounced the trial of Mindszenty as religious persecu tion. Scandinavia In proposing the North Atlantic Pact, to curb fear of aggression in that region of Europe, the United States has hit upon a stumbling block in the Scandinavian countries. United States has insisted upon the participation of Denmark and Nor way in the pact independently of a mutual defense alliance between the Scandinavian countries. The U. S. insisted upon this as a con dition of military aid. Foreign Minister Rasmussen said that a re gional defense plan suits the Scan dinavian countries better and ex plained this stand in the historic connections of those nations and their cooperation in all fields except the military in the past. Rasmus sen said: “In Denmark, Norway and Sweden it is still agreed that the happiest solution of the secu rity problem of the North is a re gional defense pact among the three Scandinavian countries and the Gov ernments of the three countries are in principle agreed as to the con tents of such a pact.’-’ In view of this preference for a union of the Scandinavian countries with outside defense aid, a compromise is being sought along such lines as the Uni ted States is rushing estimates of the cost of armed aid.
