Opera Club to be Organized

A meeting will be held in the Trophy Room of the Union this evening at 8 o'clock to organize an informal club for members of the University who are interested in opera, whether members of the Union or not. A plan will be presented for holding informal monthly meetings during the operatic season. There will be no dues for membership.

At the opening meeting, F. S. Converse '93, formerly professor of music in the University, now vice-president of the Boston Opera Company, will speak on "The Outlook for Opera in America from the Viewpoint of an American Composer." At succeeding meetings the operatic novelties to be presented by the Boston Opera Company will be discussed by well-known speakers and illustrated by prominent artists of the company. Among the works which will be taken up are Debussy's "L'Enfant Prodigue," Lafarra's "Habanera" and Rachmaninoff's "Der Geizige Ritter."
