(Daily Record Photo by Ted Crail.j Retired Singer Still Leads Busy Life Crooks Raps Opera Singers Who Striptease In Night Clubs HOLLYWOOD (IP) — Those opera stars who do strip teases in nightclubs brought a groan today of “great let down to the public” fifom one of the greatest tenors of the century, Richard Crooks. Crooks, now 56 and white-haired but with a youthful face, retired front singing 11 years ago and lives quietly with his wife in the paush suburb of Brentwood. To hear him sing today you have to attend All Saints Episcopal Church in Beverly Hills—pnly there does he unleash the vrtce that thrilled opera, con cert and radio listeners for nearly 20 years. But Crooks keeps up with cur rent Metropolitan stars, and the slit skirts of Patrice Munsel and Marguerite Piazza and the night club jazz sung by Helen Traubel, Laurltz Melchoir and Ezio Pinza make him “feel sorry for them." CARUSO AT VEGAS "To see a singer step into a nightclub! I remember how dis appointed I was when Mr. Schu man-Heihk toured with vaudeville. Can you teature Melba or Flag stad or Caruso singing at Las Vegas?” exclaimed Crooks as he basked on the patio of his home. "I know it's their own business, and that they do it for money, but I don’t think a nightciub is STEWART a BAST TIME TODAY SUNDAY — MONDAY .TUESDAY You never had it so good and funny! vJEMEN the proper completion for a career. “I think singers, at the end of their careers, owe It to the public to teach young singers.” After a decade at pie Met, Crooks became a fixture, on the) NBC firestone Hour on radio lor 13 years. He retired in 1945 because of ill health, four years agt> he and his wife, wed for 31 years, moved here from Pennsylvania to be closer to their daughter in San Prancisco, realtor son in Seattle and seven grandchildren.

He judges numerous auditions for be ginners seeking scholarships. Next October Crooks and another re tired opera star, Lottie Lehman, launch the first Southwest audi tions for the Met in nearby Santa Barbara. 'il've found one singer who could fit easily into TV and films but he is serious About opera and is determined not to' be swayed by these offers,” Crooks said happily. "It’s such a loss when a fine voice is sidetracked. I remember when Mario Lanza sang in a con cert trio, years ago with George London. George stayed with seri ous singing and became one of the world’s finest- bass baritones. Lanza has eone bv the boards.” What sort of people own Studebakers? Studebaker owners are individ ualists. They refuse to be satisfied with look-alike cars. They’re alert to the extra value of Studebaker-Packard’s many exclusives: a built-in Supercharger, the luxury ride of variable-rate springing, and Twin Traction, with drive power at both rear wheels.
