With another. notable roster of world famous artists and a program unexcelled for interest and variety this year‘s festival promises to â€"probably eclipse_all past festivals. fastivals Opening Concert The work chosen for the opening concert, the night of May 27th, is Saint Saens‘ Samson and Delilah Cyrena., Van Gordon Edith Mason whichâ€"enjoys the unugual distinction of being equally popular as an operâ€" atic and as a concert performance. In it will be heard a trio of distinguished artists who already have achieved triumphs in the same roles when singâ€" ing with <the Chicago Civic Opera company. They are Cyrena Van Gorâ€" don, contralto, Charles Marshall, tenâ€" or, and Richard Bonelli, . baritone. Herbert Gould also has an important part. â€"Inâ€"addition, the magnificent festival chorus of 600 voices, the A Cappella choir and the Chicago Symâ€" phony orchestra will have parts in the presentation of the brilliant muâ€" sic which scintillates with the genius andâ€"dramatic ability of the composer.

The . operating limits of one switch; board is placed at 10,500. â€" When the number of phones exceeds this figure it is necessary to add a second board in order to avoid confusion.
