LIST OF STUDENTS
Performance of First Motion
Picture of An Opera
Is Smooth
Approximately 501) students and
faculty of the s u m m e r session saw
a n d heard the first complete grand
o p e r a in sound pictures when Leoncavallo's " Pagliacci " was presented
a s the second of a series of W e d n e s d a y evening p r o g r a m s , last W e d nesday.
" Pagliacci " is a pioneer motion
p i c t u r e presentation of g r a n d opera.
W i t h the exception of a few short
selections from opera, this is the
first such production.
Performance S m o o t h
T h e work is sung in the original
Italian by a large chorus and a cast
of excellent principals. T h e orchest r a l background is provided by
s o m e 75 players picked from Mr.
Gallo's San Carlo company, and a
few from the Metropolitan and
P h i l h a r m o n i c , and the music is directed by Carlo l'eroni, long k n o w n
h e r e a b o u t s as a conductor.
Mr. Gallo's quintet of singers in
t h e leading roles of the piece gives
a performance that for s m o o t h n e s s ,
voice quality and d r a m a t i c point
r a n k s even higher than he was in
t h e habit of achieving with his old
San Carlo forces.
T h e biting little tale of love and
jealousy a m o n g the traveling playe r s of Calabria is unfolded by Alba
Novello as Nedda, F e r n a n d o Bertini as Canio , Mario Valle as T o n i o
a n d Giuseppe l n t e r r a n t e and F r a n cesco Curci in the smaller p a r t s of
Silvio and Rcppe.
Miss Novella and Mr. Bertini are
t w o of Mr. Gallo's radio finds but
they proved themselves quite capable of doing Nedda and Canio admirably for the films. T h e piece
is prettily mounted and well phot o g r a p h e d . An elaborate ballet has
been interpolated in the second act
t o music cleverly put together from
Leoncavallo's own melodic material.

George \V. Norvell, supervisor of
English in the N e w York State Department of Education, spoke to the
English S25 class last Friday. His
subject was the outlining of a plan
for, and the results of an experiment in the teaching of literature
which had been carried on in several schools of t h e State during the
past year under the supervision of
the State D e p a r t m e n t .
T h i s plan
was a combination of the extensivereading plan and the intensivestudy plan.
Mr. Norvell believes
that the results, so far received,
show that an extensive-reading of
books in no way minimizes the pupil's chances of passing the Regents'
examinations, while at the same
time, it does a g r e a t deal more toward fulfilling our teaching objectives than the old intensive-study
method of teaching literature ever
did. " T h e o u t s t a n d i n g objectives
of uor teaching of literature are,"
said Mr. Norvell, " ( I ) to promote
genuine interest in reading; (2) the
development of genuine liking for
reading; (.i) to develop a genuine
capacity to read with comprehension and love for reading."
