GRANADA STARTS AT

It should make you feel good to know that the old home town can muster enough talent to do a job like this. I got acquainted with some of the principals in the Civic’'s hall of mirrors, which is that fantastic foyer that makes you see double and shows off a silver fox to advantage. I didn’t see any silver fox furs, but I did see people who like to sing after they finish a day’s work. This group has been organized by Charles Hedley, voice faculty chief at the Jordan Conservatory, who operates on the theory that there is plenty of local, amateur talent available to entertain the public for a moderate admission fee. g Hh &

Meet the Cast

I CAN TESTIFY to the fact that the theory is practical. These people will do a professional lob, because they happen to sing well. But, as I say, we got acquainted. There was Mrs. Charles P. Brady of 87 Whittier place, Irvington, who came to Indianapolis a year ago from Cincinnati where she had studied singing. She likes to sing besides keeping house. But where? When the production of the “Gondo-

'The Gondoliers' First Effort Of Jordan-Civic Singers

By RICHARD LEWIS

INDIANAPOLIS HAS AN ORGANIZATION known as the Jordan Civic Operetta Guild and the other night it was going through the paces for its first public performance, “The Gondoliers.” The Gilbert and Sullivan operetta is being given April 10 to 18 at the Civic Theater as a joint Civic-Guild enterprise. I can say at this early date that the production has stuff on the ball.

liers” came along, she tried out for the part of the Duchess of Plaza Toro. She got it. Mary Esther Guidone, 5920 Pleasant Run blvd, is a voice student at Jordan, majoring in radio speech, and taking piano on the side. She sang as a Tech high school pupil. She sings the part

of Casilda, the duchess’ daugh='

ter, and is a pleasing mezz20-so0-prano. Lloyd Patten, 1217 N. Delaware, is 24 years old and a tenor. He came here from Albuquerque, N. M,, to study music at Jordan. He hopes to be a concert and stage singer. He plays Luiz, the Duke’s attendant and beats a drum. He loves it.

The Duke of Plaza Toro

CAROL LEE GEISLER, 529 N. Colorado st. sings the part of a peasant girl, Gianetta. She's an Indiana university graduate in sociology. She's secretary at the university's medical center here. She likes to exercise her soprano voice now and then. When the “Gondoliers” came along, she joined up. Evening rehearsals keep her busy, but it’s fun. The Duke of Plaza Toro is Carroll Reynolds, 4322 Winthrop ave, who once led a dance band at Butler university. His main job is selling physicians and surgeons supplies for the A. C. Reynolds supply house. When the Federal theater was operating, he played in “It Can't Happen Here.” Used to do radio work both here and at Springfield, Ti. In 1935, he understudied Glen Hunter in “Squaring the Circle.” Mr. Reynolds is a family man. He's the father of two children, with another en route. j He has a good baritone voice and enough stage exeperience to give the relaxed, easy, stage presence Gilbert and Sullivan operettas require. Louis Candedo, 1602 E. 52d st., works at Allison's. He is a bassbaritone and takes the part of Don Alhambra del Bolero, the grand inquisitor. He has been singing, acting and announcing occasionally on local stations and has had stage as well as light opera experience. 2

Church Soloist in Cast

MRS. LILY KING SHAW of Danville is the soloist at the Central Christian Church. She has studied voice at Jordan. She won the Indiana section of the Purdue-Chicagoland music festival last year. She sings the part of Tessa, a peasant girl in the operetta. Like some of the others, she has had previous light opera experience. 1 think you will like the tenor of 19-year-old Johnny Phillips, 5023 Evanston ave. He's a senior at Tech where he sings in the choir and the madrigal singers. The youngest of the principals, he inherited the part of Giuseppe Palmieri from Vernon Roth who joined the service a few weeks ago. Johnny is just on the verge of becoming a baritone, but not quite. He plans to go to Indiana univer= sity in the fall to study business administration. ns

8 Maybe 'Pagliaci' FRANCES BRINKMAN, 4302 Carrollton ave, studied at Jordan for a while. She's an insurance underwriter downtown and takes the part of Inez, a nurse. She is a member of the Indianapolis symphonic choir. These are some of the people who make up a local operetta guild. Local people, most of them, in business or professions who like to sing. Mr. Hedley, who, incidentally sings the part of Marco Palmieri, thinks the guild will go places. Maybe next year, it will be far enough along to do “Pagliaci.” I watched these people rehearse last night, in old sweaters, shirtsleeves and street dresses. It was delightful. There was freshness and real talent and you could see they all got a big kick out of it. I did, too.

FINDS SERUM FOR POLIO TREATMENT

BOSTON, April 8 (U. P).—The treatment of infantile paralysis, even in advanced stages, by a serum and the detection of the malady before it develops by using a “skin test” has been reported to a meeting of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology. Dr. BE. C. Rosenow, Mayo foundation bacteriologist, announced that the use of serum to treat the disease was made possible by a “hunch” of his 25 years ago which led to research, proving that visible streptococcus germs and not the invisible “virus” cause infantile paralysis. Dr. Rosenow said his newly-de-veloped serum, which can be prepared in “unlimited quantities” by inoculating horses and immunizing them, has-been used on more than 200 human patients with “striking results.” If this serum is applied to subjects suffering from early stages of infantile paralysis, he said, a reaction occurs that can be employed as & «gkin test” to detect the disease before it gains headway.
