Greatest emphasis was placed by New York musicians on" the consistent beauty bf tone and "flawless dictipn" of the Choir. The girls also received flattering comments on their costumes, cal- led '9n Excellent Taste". Peter Wilhousky, coach at the Metropolitan Opera, who has directed choruses for Toseanni, spoke of the "Fine Nuances" as well as diction, when he went back stage after the concert in Carnegie Recital Hall to " con- gratulate director Earle Terry.

It wasn't usual, listeners said, for members of a choir to be dressed in gowns which blended in shading and were so well suited to the age group. Canadians from the Maritimes, in New York for Easter week, besides Londoners, were in the audience. The Maritimers re- membered the singers fromjheir tour last fall and wanted to hear them again. Among them were Miss Gena Branscombe, who has a choral group in Picton, Nova Scotia. On the program was a piece written by Janis Kalinen, of Teacher's. College in Fred- ericton, which brought an ovation from the audience, The program introduced to New Yorkers., special arrange- ments by Albert Whitehead, Can- adian composer-musician;; a n d Earle Terry, of Eiviish, Irish, Scottish and Canadian composi- tions. The result was' one of the best concerts ever presented by the choir in this-w-Fai7S• hearing. - o Hensall Midgets Feted at Banquet (By our Hensall correspondent), Hensel].
