Touring Operatic Troupe Goes Broke Star Left Stranded In Nashville, Tenn. Nashville, Tenn , Nov. 29 (UP) A fiery "Carmen" who sank six weeks' back pay into a faltering I operatic company was stranded here without funds today when the touring troupe apparently went broke and failed to join her. To add to her other trouble*. 2Ryearold .Mona Bradford said, the New York Civic Opera Co. left her the job of telling Nashville authorities that the company would not be able to get here for a scheduled near-sellout performance last night. But Miss Bradford, a tall, beautiful brunette who was to have sung the title role in "Carmen" here, said she could endure such difficulties for the sake of art. ' That's just show business," she explained. She sai<l she is "embarrassed anti completely humiliated" at having to wire Iter musicians union in New York for enough money to buy a train ticket back there. But she hom'd the money would come in time for her to I leave today. Miss Bradford explained her lack of funds as she waited in a 1 Nashville hotel. For the last six I weeks, she said, she has turned her paycheck hack to the company hoping to help it get over its financial troubles The stranded soprano said she last sang with the troupe in Evansville. Ind. last week. She came here ahead of the company for a few days rent before her next scheduled appearance, which was to have be<-n last night. Miss Bradford said she still isn't sure exactly what happened. But yesterday she received a wire from tlie company manager, from Wheeling. W. Va. telling her the •'performance is cancelled" ami asking iter to so inform the sponsoring Nashville Opera Guild The smoldering beauty said she understood that the sheriff at Danville. 111., attached most of the troupe's scenery an<l costumes Saturday night and the performers are getting Itack to New York as best they can. "I can't understand it," ah" said. "Itecause we received, wonderful reviews all along on our tour. But people in the midwest just don't seem to like opera." She salil the troupe had “a fine production" ami "we believed in It enough to make some sacrifices." "Being broke is no n»w thing ' for opera companies," she said, i her eyes flashing. "Look at the i .Metropolitan's financial difficulties last year." Only tine other member of the troupe, pretty 24-year old Dimitra Dima, came here ahead of the main company. She was to have sung the role of Frasquita In last night's ill fated 1 performance. Miss Bradford said she understood that Nashville friends of Miss Dima had financed her return to New York. •Miss Bradford, a native of Inis 1 Angeles, said the show may lie over for the present but she is still determined to sing the role of Carmt n "I'll sing it all over the world I some day." she said. "It's my favorite role." Appointment of Executor Estate Na. 4.171 Not lee la hereby alien. That the 1 undersigned has been appointed Executor of the estate of Santa nt ua E.

Let the festive holiday spirit begin at your own doorway A special decoration for the front entrance not only extends your holidsy hospitality but is s friend ly greeting to all who pass your home during the Christmas season. The three suggested arrangements pictured above might be applied to almost any home—large or small — with slight modifications. Bells and boughs, accented with glowing illuminated candles, ere ate an attractive setting for a recessed doorway. As pictured at the left above, colored bulbs are used in the three fireproof papiermache bells above the door. Strings of colored outdoor bulbs are also pestled in the evergreen boughs along the eaves. Twin caudles flanking the doorway are products of a home workshop. Although the candles shown above are made of painted composition biard with flames of translucent material such as plastic, cellophane or spun glass, you can make similar ones quickly with a piece of pipe, a sturdy can or crock for a holder and a single outdoor socket with a colored bulb for a flame. The simple dignity of the door-
