54 WINNETRKAZTALK March 10, 1928 Triangles in Challenge to Local Legionnaires The Triangle club believes the American Legion was beaten so badly in a game of billiards by the former that they are willing to forfeit the final match which was to have been played February 22. Only one Legion man appeared, and he was "Doc" Car- penter. He played his part of the match and was beaten by Al Eckart of the Triangle club. Unless the Legion shows up next Tuesday night at M. IL. Adams' Billiard parlors, the Tri- angle club will claim the championship. The Triangle club also wishes to chal- lenge the Legion to any kind of sport from tiddledy-winks to golf, reads a notice sent to Winnetka. WIN AND LOSE The boys' first cage team of the North Shore Country Day school de- feated the Wilmette Howard team by 35-15 on Friday, of last week.

MARY ANDERSON, (Seal) Notary Public GREAT MARTINELLI ENTRANCES HEARERS Final of Winnetka Music Club Artist Series Brings Master of All Tenors By Rutheda L. Pretzel Giovanni Martinelli! A man, an artist to be spoken of in superlatives. A tremendous ovation greeted Marti- nelli when he appeared at New Trier High school Wednesday evening, March 7, to give the last program on the Artist Recital series sponsored by the Winnetka Music club. He is not only immensely popular because of his magnificent voice, but also because of his extremely charming personality. He grinned and smiled and bowed, taking the audience to his heart as the aud- ience took him to its heart, and in that large bare auditorium he created an atmosphere of warm friendliness. Greets Many Friends Many personal friends were in the audience, and nearly everyone there has come tao love the great, broad- shouldered man who sings so gloriousy at Ravinia and with the Metropolitan Opera company. His voice is rich, golden, and pours out from a seem- ingly limitless supply of breath. The finest artistic sense, he has; delicacy and virility. An extraordinary man with an extraordinary voice. There was nothing cold about the north shore audience last Wednesday, for everyone seemed stirred unusually, and near the end, when Martinelli obliged with "Vesta la Giubba," air from Pagliacci, they were even moved to call "Bravo! Bravo!' 'Yes. said Giovanni Martinelli, "it is a responsive audience. Very warm, but you see I am among friends." His program con- sisted of an aria, "O Paradiso," from "I Africaine": "Aprile," by Tosti; Debussy's "Nuit D'Etoiles"; Leon- cavallo's "Lasciati Amar"; the much loved "Celeste Aida"; DeCrescenzo's "Rondine al Nido" : two English songs, "The Moon," by Bagby; "That Night," by Vanderpool. As encores he gen- erously gave "FE Lucevan le Stelle," from "Tosca"; "Just You and I," sung in English; and "Woman Is Fickle." Duet Is Brilliant Martinelli and Ada Paggi, mezzo- soprano, sang the duet, "Ai Nostri Monti," from "Il Trovatore," and as a final encore, they gave a duet from the first act of "Il Trovatore." Their voices were beautifully blended, and both songs were brilliantly given. Mme. Paggi gave several groups dur- ing the evening, in a voice that was strangely sweet and clear for a mezzo- soprano. She sang with refinement, and graciously. While there is not a deal of volume back of her voice, it is so exquisitely clear and so gently used that it gave us great pleasure. Her groups held such favorites as "Do Not Go, My Love," by Hageman; "From the Land of the Sky Blue Water," by Cadman; "Habanera," from Carmen; "J'ai Pleur en Reve" by Hue; "The Jasmine Door," by A. Scott; "La Partida," by F. Alvarez; and the Cavatina from "Les Hugue- nots," by Meyerbeer. She generously gave the piquant "Clavelitos," "Ay! Av! Ay!" by Perez-Freire; and "Steride la Vanyre" from "Il Trova- tore," for encores. Salvatore Fucito gave both Mr. Martinelli and Mme. Paggi excellent accompaniments. The Winnetka Music club can well congratulate itself upon an evening of such high standard. Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Leigh of 513 Walnut street, left a few weeks ago for New York city, where they sailed on the "Doric," for a three months' Mediterranean tour. They expect to return the last of April x
