WALTER KRICK 1 HOSTESS AND LEADER The Ladies' Shakespeare Club i met Wednesday afternoon at the i home of Mrs. Walter Krick on ' North Second street. Mrs. A. I). > Suttles presided in the absence of the president, Ml*. W. A. Lower. i After the routine opening, an invitation was read from the James Whitcomb Riley's O.<l Home SociI ety asking the club members to visit the Hoosier poet's home. i Mrs. Krick who was also leader for the afternoon had as her subject "Development of the opera and Its future, a paper which was unusually interesting. “Opera is supposed to be the out-1 growth of early Greek playa but modern opera originated in Italy ear.'y in the 16th century, it now offers opportunity for almost every form of musical effect. "The German classic masters in-1 stituted a proper balance between I the dramatic element and the musical resources. Opera in France is distinguished by composers who j turned to the Bible and Shake'speare for their subjects. I “Opera in America is young. The ' Metropolitan Opera of New York i City furnishes our best develop- ; ment. Credit was given to business managers of the opera for its future development to the degree of excellency and independence that will ■compel attention." At the close of the program can dies were served. The club will meet next week at the home of Mrs. Wil.'iam Bell with Mrs. John Tyndall giving a book review. I ’ RESUME OF 937 EVENTS INTERESTING CLUB PAPER Nineteen members of the Historical club met at the home of Mrs. Earl Butler Wednesday afternoon. The collect was read, roll call answered and current events and quotations given. Mrs. Sam Butler, leader of the study period, gave a most interesting resume of events which happened during the year 1937, culled from various newspapers and magazines. “Radium — discovery of richest pitch blend in the world in Mojave Desert in California. Other sources are the Belgian Congo and Great

Chan on the Nile”, will bring tHe series up to 17 pictures. When Robert Benchley left here recently, Pete Smith, M. G. M. commentator, commissioned him tc get in touch with George S. Kaufman in the east. Benchley had been back about a week when Smith received a telegram: “Whom did you ask me to look up in New York?" Smith wired back as follows: "The man's name is George S Kan-'man. Yours is Benchley.” On the eve of his departure foi an engagement at the Cotton club, Bill Robinson shelled out S3OO to buy uniforms and equipment for 10 boys on the Central avenue basketball team that he had been coaching. Then he gave them another S2OO for traveling expenses in case they could get games with other Negro teams in California. We’d like to tell you about another nice gesture, this time by Anne Shirley. The actress just wrote a check for SIOO as a starter on a fund to aid struggling young players. She’ll keep on adding to it from time to time. Anne, who knew plenty of lean days before she got a break in pictures, says about the fund: “Often, if an actress has a new dreaa to wear to an interview, it will mean the difference between getting a job and not. Or a few week's expense money, until a call comes through, may help some deserving young player get the break that means success." CHATTER. ... In case the city desks are interested, Mrs. Stokowski flew here for one day. She was at the Kreutzberg dance recital. . . • Bert Lahr is entertaining Hollywood with a ragamuffin party. Most of the invited guests are well on their, way to their first million. The Ozzie Nelson opening at Victor Hugo's

Sonja Henle

was so big the late spots are hoping that good times are here again. Among the interesting twosomes there: Sonja Henle with Vic Orsatti and Wendy Barrie with Billy Seymour. ... Hit of the evening was a

group of youngsters who suddenly dashed among the dancers and started doing th bl? annle. ... The celebs formed in a circle and cheered and whistled. Almost unnoticed at this opening was William Fox, not so long ago one of the giants of the industry. - •
