Well, you'll find out! Think how disappointed you are
going to be when others tell you how much they have
enjoyed . Marian. Anderson,. Ruth Draper, Lauritz Mel
chior, and the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra!
Of course you may be able to buy single admissions for
two or three of these, but you'll pay as much for them
then as you will for all four of them now.
What we're trying to say is: Buy your series Artists'
Course tickets now and save yourself half the cost of
admissions to single numbers. Yes, tickets for Ander
son may be available, but at $3.85, and' for Melchior,
Draper, and the Orchestra, at. $2.75 each. Even a fresh
man knows that $12.10 is double s6.os, the price at which
they are now available!
