Anaheim Gazette 3 SUNDAY MORNING, JAN. 25, 1953 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Social and Club Activities IRENE JULIAN SOCIETY EDITOR Phone 2206 Elena Nikolaidi Delights Capacity Audience in Brilliant Concert Under the sponsorship of the Northern Orange County Community Concert association, Elena Nikolaidi, Metropolitan Opera contralto, sang to a capacity audience Friday evening in the auditorium of the Fullerton high school. A well balanced program gave the dynamic prima donna ample opportunity to reveal her versatility and she took full advantage of it, drawing warm response from her listeners. She proved equally at home in the delicate nuances of lieder singing, as in the more dramatic accents of operatic arias. Her artistic interpretation of Greig's "Solveig's Song" brought spirited applause as did Her sympathetic and delicate handling of "Wie Meelodien zieht es mir" by Brahms. Nikoliadi sang with a rich, warm quality of voice, smooth and extended in range which was especially pleasing in her beautiful legato passages. Her vocalization was clean cut and scintillating on the whole though there was an occasional tendency to slur which may have been due to fatigue, the artist having sung nine concerts in 20 days from New York to San Francisco. In spite of the restraining limitations of the concert platform, the dramatic Greek singer's ability as an actress easily surmounted it, and this was most noticeable in the manner in which she pro- gilted artist. Nikolala captivated the audience with her consummate handling of her haunting melody in another Greek folk song, "The Shepherd," the warmth of her feeling surely came straight from her heart. To one versed in musical interpretation, her rendition of Schubert's "Ungeldul," seemed somewhat personal and lacking in authority, and in Rummel's "Ecstasy" it might be said that she failed to take full advantage of its brilliant vocal possibilities. Her vocal and histrionic talents were outstanding in the operatic arias, and she seemed at ease and very much at home in Donizetti's "O mio Fernando" from La Favorita, with which she closed her set program. To an audience most reluctant to let her go, she was both gracious and generous with encores. With true showmanship, she closed her creditable evening's performance with dramatic intensity in the area, "Habanera" from the opera Carmen. Anaheim P-TA Co-founder's Day with At Home of Miss The Anaheim Council of Day tea was held in the home Bdwy., with the Mmes R. Ward, B. E. Baumbach, T. Hein, S. E.

To an audience most reluctant to let her go, she was both gracious and generous with encores. With true showmanship, she closed her creditable evening's performance with dramatic intensity in the area "Habanera" from the opera Carmen. Stuart Ross, accomplished and gifted accompanist, gave Nikolai-di excellent support. His group of three numbers following the intermission was enthusiastically received.

Burke Home and Garden Section Ebell met at the clubhouse Wednesday afternoon to hear W. E. Burke of Whittier speak on roses. The versatile speaker began with a history of the plant, revealing many interesting facts. Existence of the rose is first mentioned concerning the Garden of Eden when roses were placed on Cain's grave. It is said that 20,000 bushes decorated the Hanging Garden of Babylon in the time of King Solomon. At a reception given by Cleopatra for Mark Anthony, 18 inches of rose petals were thrown in his path as he approached. Napoleon acceded to the wishes of Josephine and let her found the famous rose Garden of Malmaison. It was at this garden that the "Peace" rose was recently developed. A color film produced by Ortho entitled "How to Grow Beautiful Roses," was shown. Culture of roses and scenes from famous gardens constituted the film.

HOME CRAFTSMEN Flowers, birds, trees, fish and hearts—these have been the five most popular subjects for home and craft decoration since Revolutionary days, according to Suzanne E. Chapman, author of "Early American Design Motifs," a new picture book just off the press. Due in part to a growing interest in early craft design, the same variations that your great-great-grandmother used in crewel embroidery, bedspreads, petticoat borders and applique quilts have now found their way into modern tray painting, furniture decoration, needlework, and stenciling according to Miss Chapman who is an illustrator for the Boston museum of fine arts. She has found that these early American motifs originated with the German, Dutch, English and French who carried their tradition to this country in early times. AGO To Present DAD'S DAY "National husband in the kitchen day" has been set for Sunday, Jan. 25 by the National Association of Retail Grocers, and the idea of the day isn't a bad one at all. Its purpose is to encourage the man of the house to prepare himself for the role of emergency or relief cook. In even the best organized families there is bound to be an occasional interruption of the regular household routine, especially when there is a new addition to the family. The man who can cook a simple, tasty meal is never at a disadvantage. After all, hubby teaches wife to drive an automobile. Why isn't it just as practical to encourage husband to cook? To help both husband and wife in this male cooking venture, the National Association of Retail Grocers is distributing a recipe booklet entitled, "What Every Man Should Know About Cooking." It may be obtained, without charge, by writing the association's office at 360 N. Michigan ave., Chicago 1, Ill. In case a man gets carried away with the whole idea and becomes inclined to hang around the kitchen at mealtimes to offer advice from his new fund of cooking knowledge, be firm in reminding him that the old bromide about "too many cooks" is still good. WINTER COTTONS Your high styled winter cottons deserve the finest care. This means that they ought not to be routed to the wash basin in the bathroom, or consistently whizzed through the automatic washer. In many cases, the garment design, the shoulder pads, padding, buttons, and trim takes them out AGO To Present Claire Coci In Organ Recital Orange Coast Chapter of the American Guild of Organists is presenting two major concerts to Orange County audiences this season.
