THE INDEX
*1 “Such sweet compulsion doth in music lie”—Ibid: Ar-
- cavis.
" When one thinks of the marvelous singing of the
Bronze Goddess of song, Marian Anderson, as she vainly
tried to appease the musical hunger of a crowd of 5,000 in
the City auditorium last Thursday night while they sat en-
tranced listening to her magic voice, the meaning of these
lines, “Such sweet compulsion doth in music lie” was force-
fully brought out as one glanced at the eager faces of the
audience greedily waiting for more of her renditions. We’ll
nevr forget “Ave Maria”—and many in that audience had
a great deal of satisfaction in knowing that they had con-
tributed something toward making this great recital a suc-
ecss. Mrs. C. V. Adair, who had complete charge of the
Colored ticket sale for the Marian Anderson recital and un-
der whose management more than $1700.00 was realized,
deserves many compliments for her fine work—to say noth-
ing of the Education Committee of the Blue Triangle Branch
Y. W. C. A. headed by Mrs. Ellouise Williams as Branch
Chairman, who were co-sponsors with Mrs. Edna W. Saun-
ders in promoting the recital. They were very grateful
for the response of the public.
The charming smile which Miss Nadine Roberts, Ex-
ecutive Secretary of the Y. W. C. A. is wearing comes from
viewing the results of the recital for which she worked so
faithfully. Much of the newspaper publicity and many of
the reservations were gained through Misses Vera Rieras
and Richie Blount and it is quite amusing to hear how the
publicity committee, headed by Thomas Parr, and his co-
workers, Rev. J. S. Scott and William Ponder covered every
meeting (from two persons on up) and talked of the recital.
' 1 Mrs. Carolyn Dungee-Countee, secretary of the Girl Re-
serves, inspired her girls to make cut-out dolls of Marian
Anderson and decorated the “Y” windows with them. The
iGirls also solicited money from friends and bought six stu-
dent tickets as gifts for six honor Girl Reserve students.
Mrs. M. J. Davis, chairman of the Education Committee
v of the “Y” sponsored a Marian Anderson Poster-Poem and
Esay contest at all of the public schools and may we say
“ here that all student tickets were sold exclusively by the
.1 public schools. The prizes offered were two student tickets.
The following students were prize-winners in the ele-
mentary schools; Douglas: June Cox for the best posters
mand Betty J. Perry for the best essay. From Highland Hts:
Doris Oliver, for the best poem.
In the high schools Bessie Catchings of Washington
, had the best poem and from Wheatley: Junius Mae Wel-
" come had the best essay and Lucille Lemons the best poem.
It may interest you to know that Miss Anderson gratefully
accepted these contributions when presented, and sent them
home to her mother.
Congratulations also go to these persons for selling spe-
cial seating sections: Miss Emma Thorpe, Mmes. Carter W.
Wesley, King Hughes, John W. Hubert and Mattie Wilson.
Miss Anderson visited the “Y” Friday morning and ex-
- ' pressed thanks to all for help making the recital a success.
