Grand Concert Company, scheduled
.... . ._r
h .
to appear December 7.
Misi liiidio soprano, has ap
_ . . .n,
pearedverylavorably with different
. ..
prominent musical organizations, a
iming which are _the New York oi a
torior society, the Pittsburg Sym
phony orclestra, the Cleveland har
mOnk socieiy and the New York
Chautaqua.
She has a repertoire of some twen
ty four operas and oratorios, beside
numerous smaller songs. All press
notices are very complimentary, the
New York papers being especially
warm in her praise, after her appear
ance with the N. Y. oratorio society
under the direction of Dr. Frank
Damrosch.
Miss Benedict, contralto, is equal
ly pleasing with her voice. Her
manager says "Miss Pearl Benedict
seems to possess all the qualifications
THE STATE COLLEGIAN
necessary for a great singer—a pure
contralto voice of wide range, abun
dant temperament, and adequate
musicianship. She is engaged to fill
the important solo position in Calva
ry M. E. church, N. Y., one of the
largest and best known churches in
the United States, where the congre
gations average 2500 each Sunday".
Mr. James, tenor, comes with high
recommendations as soloist with the
Baltimore oratorio society, the New
York church choral society, Ohio
Festival, N. Y. Chautauqua and the
Ocean Grove assembly. A Pitts
burg 'paper says : "Cecil James, who
sang the tenor parts, has an admir
able stage presence, and his natural
ness and easy 'way of singing at once
won his hearers. His tones are
warm, sympathetic, beautiful. His
voice, while not robust, is one of the
sweetest yet heard in the Mozart
club".
Mr. Croxton, basso, was the vo
cal teacher; at Chautuaqua, New
York, this past season, and figured
in many artists' recitals there, al
ways receiving warm applause from
critical but appreciative audiences.
He sang for three seasons with the
Theodore Thomas orchestra on its
festival tour, and he was also one of
the soloists in the colossal produc
tion of the Beethoven Mass in D, by
the N. Y. Oratorio society during
the 1905-6 season.
The pianist, Mme Eleanore Clark-
Stanley, has a well-earned reputation
gained by years of study abroad
under competent masters, the last of
whom was Moritz
on
The press comment on her work is
most favorable, and her share of the
program will doubtless add greatly
to the pleasure of the evening's en
tertainment.
Senior Prom
The dance in the Armory last Fri
day night was very successful. The
music furnished by the college or
chestra compared very well with
any dance music that has been heard
here lately. The refreshments were
good, the only criticism being that
the guests were not as well waited
on as they might have been. The
decorations by Vollmer made the
Armory look very pretty. 140
couples were present and a goodly
number of chaperones and patron
esses. The committee in charge of
the dance was: H. H. Goodhart,
R. M. Pennock, S. H. Smith, A.
G. Frick, and C. G. Reiter.
AMONG OTHER COLLEGES.
The official registration at Syra
cuse University shows 3,204 stu
dents, the college of liberal arts
leading with 1,422 students. The
college of applied science has 390
students.
The old athletic field at Dickinson
College has been sold to the Cum
berland Valley railroad for $5300,
and a new field is being constructed
to take its place. Possession will
not be given until June, when the
new field will be completed,
