For barring occasional and no doubt temporary voice roughness, all the soloists wove expertly in and out of difficult recitatives, arias and choruses, some containing more surprising modulations and enharmonic changes than the 7 bobby-soxers might find in their favorite latest discs.

SAYS MATE CHASED HER OUT IN COLD

HOLLYWOOD, Oct, 17 (U. P.).— Actress Pat Patrick, Miss Minnesota of 1041 today was divorced from Portrait Painter Norman Allen Trevour, who, she said, chased her out of thgir bedroom and left| her shivering nude in the hall. “I was undressing for bed and he shoved me out in the hall and! locked the door,” she said. “I was naked.” She said Trevour beat her with his fists and that she lost 26 pounds between the marriage Feb. 27, 1044 and their separation last Aug. 13.
