Perhaps in its youth it dreamed of a career on the stage, and perhaps even in recent years it dreamed of being elevated from drab existence; scarcely believeable could have dreamed of one day going into grand opera and be- ing elevated to the fly gallery between acts, there to remain while prima donnas and pretty chorus girls paced the score of “Martha” on the stage below._ When “Martha” is staged at the Metropolitan a real live horse wearing special leather Local Opera started prancing and became so enmeshed in the reins that an emergency curtain was _neces- sary to bring that scene to a premature ending. In staging the local production of “Martha” the directors were confronted with the problem of horseless transportation for the two girls who are purchased as farm maids and carried away by Lionel and Plunkett to serve as their domestics. The oppor- tunity had come. “Lucy the Laundry Cart” could see her- self behind the footlights. It had been years since she had vocalized but one day as she passed director Rossell on the campus she just squeeked her very best little squeek and was boots which cost fifteen dollars apiece comes onto the stage ai the end of the second scene and Fleming, a junior at the freshments, Margaret Brough-j high schools so that they may|by guests. chestra, Helen Flynn. son and Douglas Eley. serves to haul Nancy and Har- riet away in a carriage.

In the new post- | imind getting into the Metropolitan |part of The TECO ECHO Some people think music majors and opera singers aren’t just like anyone ele Contrary to that belief are the students ani faculty who have been working on the opera “Martha”. These students are unusual in ability, interests and nature. We would like !for you to meet them, these young opera “stars”, and more experience directors. Jean Abeyounis, Greenville lyric s0- prano, has the lead as Lady Harriet and “Martha”. She finished her voice major course at Christmas and is doing further study this quarter with Mr. Denton Rossell. For four years Jean has given a concert here in the spring. This year she will give an- other and probably her last one here, as a student. She hopes to study voice in New York in the near future. In high schoo! Jean was outstanding in glee club. She sang the soprano sole in the State contest one vear, and in the trio one vear. Also she had the lead in the “Gypsy Rover’. Since she has | been a student here she has been very active in many campus activities. She was a mem- | | i ber of the Junior Orchestra one year, the band one year, Chi Pi Players one year and the Glee club every year. Jean plays the studied the clarinet and violin. “My ambi- tion is to be a ccncert singer I bie if d, of course.’ Although Jean y femimine she enjoys sports, i One of my atest am- bitions is to ride horse back. IT can’t think of anything I’d rather do.” She loves to cook, admires originality, and likes to design clothes. She i nd of art, particularly crafts. “I am very, very fond of modern music, Glenn Miller, and dancing.” Jean loves the ‘Nut Cracker Suite” by Tschaikow- sky, “Symphony in D Minor’, by Franck, and Puccini’s operas, especially “I.a Bo- | heme”. She prefers fancy clothes and “snorts clothes, in their place.” Along the line of reading she likes historical novels, “without ch history. “I like original hair- them myself, people, and “T have had one of the grandest thrills working in “Martha” and am expec- ting a terrible let-down when it is over with.” Jean came to ECTC the first year that music was offered as a major and has to say gressed more than any other one four years.” Le in the past ne Pritchard, who is playing the ancy, is better known on the cam- pus as “Bobby.” She is from Sehaoard. Bobby studied voice for two years before coming to ECTC, and was in several plays while in high school. She is a straight music major. She was in the band for two years, and has been a member of the glee club, La- nier Society and MSA for four years. She has been a marshal, and treasurer for her society and this year is Chief Marshal. When Bobby was a sophomore she was the Tecoan representative for her class, and hall proctor that year and this year for the awe WSGA. This year she is a member of the En- tertainment Committee and chosen for “Who’s Who.” Her hobbies are: music, writ- ing—feature stories and bits of philosophy. She likes to read but, “I don’t get much time for it now.” She likes novels, poetry, bio- graphy of hero and heroines “in any field.” Bobby prefers dressy clothes, and nice jewelry. Her onyx ring is her favorite piece of jewelry. Her “secret” ambition is to live in New York “for six months and really en- joy the city life, and to cruise to the south seas!” She also likes “all types of music, swing and anything except Hill-Billy!” When quizzed about sports she replied, “I never excelled in any, but bowling is my favorite.” She likes to sing. read, and see tragedy, but has a very sunny disposition and a grand sense of humor! “I like to see an occasionally comedy, to make me feel better.” She loves crowds, “in my off moods, though, I like to be alone to think about the things I don’t talk about.” She loves twi- light ...‘of course a pretty moon can’t be sneezed at.” Aspiring to grand opera as a career, she replied to the question if she would enter Metropolitan if she had a chance, “so fast I wouldn’t even stop to dress!” Bobby hates monotony.

He has a lyric tenor voice and studied voice only one year before coming to ECTC. He is majoring in Music and Commerce. ‘‘My first teacher here told me I was a monotone for two weeks,” says Donald laugh- ingly. He has sung in the Choir for three years, and has been the president for the past two years. This year he is treasurer of his class, and secretary of the Chi Pi Play- ers of which he has been a member three years. Last year he was in the State contest play. He will enter the army im- mediately following the opera. After the “duration” he wants to finish at ECTC, “if Mr. Rossell is stiil here”, but isn’t sure w hat |he wants to do after that. ‘That part of the ‘future seems so far away.” He knows that he will follow some phase of music, however. working in ‘Martha’.” “T.

His favorite ;song is “Just As Though You Were Here”. | Of course you can guess he is a music major, | too; his other major is commerce. Jim plays 'the piano, “a mean clarinet, and a stinking |violin!” His ambition in his own words: “I | want to be a model teacher. Yes, I really do!” | He is doing his practice teaching this quar- jter as he says, “If practice teaching is a |sample of teaching I'll certainly love it be- ieause I love practice teachinz!!” He teaches ‘a class of al! girls so maybe that has some- thing to do with it, how about it Jim?

He says jhe has been studying piano for twenty years, and in- | tends to continue doing so. | When asked if he ever studied |swing playing he replied, | ‘No, I picked that up by play- \ ing with dance bands.” Rudy entered ECTC in 1938, bring- jing an entire band with him. |He kept the band for two years until | dropped out because of sickness. Billy |Knauff took the band over and still has it. Last year he was in the senior vlay, “Vivaci- ous Lady,” demonstrating his dramatic ability. He has been a member of the mixed chorus, band, and orchestra every year that he has been here. Rudy studied voice for only two years, but has studied piano every year. He understands all instruments weil jenough to play them a little and plays the clarinet, trombone, and trumpet fluently. He is Historian in the men’s fraternity, Phi Sigma Pi. “I like all music, and think there is a place for all of it in the world,” states Rudy.

Miss Gussie Kuvkendall is the director of the Woman’s chorus. For several weeks she has been holding daily rehearsals of the girls who make up the color- ful chorus of the opera. Miss Kuykendall has long been ad- mired by the townpeople and college having given numbers of successful concerts. For the past two years she has directed her chorus in sing- ing part of the beautiful Easter music in the annual pageant. Although she has remained behind scenes throughout the preparation and pre- sentation of the opera, she has been in- dispensable to the company. Miss Ellen Caldwell has given valuable assistance to Mr. Rossell in the staging and directing the dramatic parts of the opera. Not connected with the music department being a mathematics teacher, she has never- the-less joined the company and worked end- less hours. She has had dramatic experience before coming to ECTC.

Many of the pre- season favorites lost their stars and have had only a mediocre team.

The strong University of Ken tucky team has dominated play in the Southeastern Conference and is almost certain to take the title there. Many of the minor leagues in uaseball have already voted to play until after the tuvation of the war as they are unable to get players and the major leagues themselves are gard to material.

Many people have been heard to ex- press a desire to play a set or two but because the courts were not ready had to postpone their desired match.

We all know Coach Christenbury and perhaps also know of the fine athletic teams which he has turned out during his stay here as physical educa- tion instructor and heard coach, but nevertheless they will bear repeating. Coach Christenbury came here at the beginning of the fail quarter of 1940 and took up his duties as coach. In his first year here he lost only three of the nine football games played with one of them going to the ivory studded State freshmen team. His basketball team was highly successful and made one of the best records ever made _ here, and his basebail team enjoyeu fair success by winning weil over half of their games. During the fall of his second year here Coach Christenbury was able to realize what is the dream of every coach, that of a perfect season. His talented football team won all of their contests, including victories over the strong outfits of Ber- gen College of Teaneck, N. J., and Erskine College of Key West, S. C., and establishing a record which will be pointed at with pride This season because of the transportation difficulties caus- ed by the war it became neces- sary to drop interscholastic sports, but Coach Christenbury, realizing the importance of sports activity to the individual students, worked out a program of intramurals which was high- ly successful and of great bene- fit to the students In a parting gesture of tribute to the man who has done sc much for athletics here we the students join in giving fifteen Rahs for Coach Christenbury who has been commissioned a Lieutenant (jg) in the U.
