Miss Florence Macbeth, Mme. Ina Bourskaya and Mme. Julia Claussen are three of the Ravinia coterie who have remained in America this spring. Miss Macbeth, who is an American, has a home in New York which she says never seems to much like home as during these spring weeks when she can give it some personal attenâ€" tion.. But sheâ€"usually fills a number of concert engagements at this time of year, so her vacation will be of short duration. Mme. Bourskaya will visit friends on Long Island and Mme. Claussen in addition to singing some concerts will take a rest at Atlantic City. Giovanni _ Martineili, like . Mme. Rethberg, has been in Italy and it was by special invitation of: Premier Mussolini that he made the trip much earlier than he had planned. The Italian ‘nation regards this tenor as one of ‘its ‘greatest musical assets andâ€"before he came to the United States some years ago, he was an idol in the leading Italian Opera Houses. It had been a long time since he had sung ~at Rome and Premier Mussolini not only wanted "The Sunken Betl‘ to form a part of the Roman repertoire, but he likeâ€" wise wanted Mr. Martinelliâ€" to sing the role which heâ€"had created in New York.
