' Mrs. Gordon Curry introduced . the story and described the action to the audience in a, pleasing manner. In her introduction she stated that the person who arranged the libretto was admittedly "hard put" to faithfully carry out Shakespeare's style in arranging- his great work to fit that, of a masterful music setting from the pen of Verdi. Each act was explained by Mrs. Curry, and ,th$, stoiy was despribed as it was interpreted in the Operatic composition. / _lrs. Clark Wehl and Mr. Kidder sang parts of the opera. Their first presentation was a duet from the third,' scene of the. first act,' descriptive of the love scene betweeh Othello "apd Desdemona after a battle between warring nations. Othello was a. Moor, who through brave conduct had .attracted a fair Italian maiden Desdemona, despite many noble suitors among her own color. ■The chicanery of Iago, prompted, by 'his lust., for-power. and.: position,! caused much disturbance between Othello and Desdemona- after, their marriage. Iago very cleverly caused Othello to doubt the faithful Desdemona and by the power of suggestion '■: turned ' the suspicion of Othello, his superior, upon Cassio. The7four,th act climaxed the dramatic, action. ■ Two scenes from the -fourth' act were surjg by Mrs. Wehl and the third scene was sung by the soprano and Mr. Kidder; Two very choice solo numbers comprised scenes one and | two. In .the first scene of act four Desdemona is with her maid Emilia preparing- :for heVfesti v She ,t&l_- the story of a young woman named Barbara who was. once the companion-of hei' mother.

Some Game Pointers
Vollev Ball is a game which has developed rapidly duung the past ten
years Each team,places six men on
a court 30\60 feet. A cord mesh net
3% feet wide and 30 feet long is
stretched acioss £he middle of the
i com ts. Each team faces the net and
its opponents, Thiee men .play close
to the net, one man is. placed in a
iientei court position a.bout 8 feet
fiom the\iet men, the other two men
of the team play the left.and right
back court positions
A vol!e\ ball is about half the size
of a legulation basketball and is
■ cleaih hatted fiom-player to player.
While the ball is in the possession of
_ team it can only be touched by three
playeis Two hands may be used in
its handling piovided the,contact is
simultaneous and the -jball' ilot\ held
by a player The object of the game
is to make the ball hit on the opponent's side of the net where he isn't,
or serve a ball from "service" or
"spike" jn such a manner that it'cannot be lecovered and returned. •
'Game Technique
Points are made only by the offensive team'or'theione serving .the ball

sive teams fail boundaries. The rW

'tion of a "tossei" wtff.causes the ball
to be propelled close'!tojfand over the
net. His partner or^S^S!" endeavors,
to bat the Ball 'ri^rp^iwAirt, down

, The story of Shakespeare's Othello
and some musical excerpts by the
composer Verdi, vwas giyen in the
Community -Building lobby on Sunday afternoon, under' the auspices of
the North Canton WomaVs club.
' Mrs. Gordon Curry introduced . the
story and described the action to the
audience in a, pleasing manner. In
her introduction she stated that the
person who arranged the libretto was
admittedly "hard put" to faithfully
carry out Shakespeare's style in arranging- his great work to fit that, of
a masterful music setting from the
pen of Verdi. Each act was explained by Mrs. Curry, and ,th$, stoiy was
despribed as it was interpreted in the
Operatic composition.
/ _lrs. Clark Wehl and Mr. Kidder
sang parts of the opera. Their first
presentation was a duet from the
third,' scene of the. first act,' descriptive of the love scene betweeh Othello "apd Desdemona after a battle between warring nations. Othello was
a. Moor, who through brave conduct
had .attracted a fair Italian maiden
Desdemona, despite many noble
suitors among her own color.
■The chicanery of Iago, prompted,
by 'his lust., for-power. and.: position,!
caused much disturbance between
Othello and Desdemona- after, their
marriage. Iago very cleverly caused
Othello to doubt the faithful Desdemona and by the power of suggestion '■: turned ' the suspicion of
Othello, his superior, upon Cassio.
The7four,th act climaxed the dramatic, action.
■ Two scenes from the -fourth' act
were surjg by Mrs. Wehl and the third
scene was sung by the soprano and
Mr. Kidder; Two very choice solo
numbers comprised scenes one and |
two. In .the first scene of act four
Desdemona is with her maid Emilia
preparing- :for heVfesti v She ,t&l_- the
story of a young woman named Barbara who was. once the companion-of
hei' mother. The maid had a song
'called Willow, which she sang, contrasting her position to that of her
lover who lived for glory.

Scene two had as its setting the
bedroom of Desdemona, in which was
placed a prayer pench.' Kneeling, the
character . Desdemona sings Ave
Maria. In the rendition of this num-
:ber Mrs. Wehl rose to .great height.
In the mind of this writer she did her
best work in this number and sang
with ease, reverence and fi'ee use of
the legato. In her rendition. Of Barbara's . Willow song and Desdemona's
Ave Maria, ' Mrs. Wehl was undoubtedly at her best. ■
Scene three was descriptive • of the
death scene. Othello inquired of Desdemona after waking1 her with a'kiss
if she had prayed, because he would
not kill her soul. During the course of
this dramatic scene, tlie entreaties of
Desdemona for life were of no avail
'as she asked to live a day, one night,
one* moment. "Too Late" was' the
answer .of Othello as he stifled his,
wife: ■-'•"', 1
