Without this enthusiasm noone can put, his strength behind amechanical cheer. Our early cheer­leaders created, or rather aroused,this enthusiasm BEFORE the game.They showed it when the playerswere present at the meetings beforethe game. I t was bound to react andgive the players more enthusiasmand confidence in the game. W-hena freshman in high school, I saw theCarlisle-Chicago game. Chicago wasbadly beaten, but what occurred af­ter the game I never forgot. Did.they criticize the "Old Man" ormarch off the field like whipped dogs?No! As I remember it, they carriedMr. Stagg on their shoulders and ledthe band. The students' formed aparade and sang, "He's a Grand OldStagg." I can assure ,you that it wasan impressive sight.'I believe a cheerleader is all impor­tant in producing a -spirjt like that,and my suggestion is this: TheAthletic department is the most'closely concerned' with a properschool enthusiasm. Let them selectthe cheerleader and he will be select­ed on the basis of efficiency and onno other basis.

TheSettlement is almost as old as theUniversity itself. Started, under themost discouraging conditions. withsmall financial resources and fewworkers, it has, through the patientand tireless efforts of Miss McDow­ell and her assistants, reached apoint where it is making a name foritself in the history of social workin Chicago. "Back of the yards, in that forlornand sorrowful district of disheartenedtoilers of the packing .centers, theSettlement stands as an oasis for the_recreation, education and ?-id of thosewho· have no other place to securesuch� services. Hundreds and hun­dreds of children have been develop­ed through.,. its influence, starving andfrozen people have been fed andclothed, the weary have been comfort­ed and the unemployed have beengiven jobs.

S706 Ellisavenue.•-. - \'THE DAILY MAROON, rir�'DAY, DECEMBER 6, 1918."MANON LESCAUT" ANDMURATOREBy Irene Kay Hyman.It is a genuine pleasure to writea criticism about an opera in whichthere is so little to "criticize" andso much to praise. Such an opera isI "Manon Lescaut" when Lucien Mura­tore is in the cast. But to begin withthe work as a whole, it is 3. reallyaatlsfactory opera. In it there arechances for "big scenes"; there arechances for the individual singer toshow what he can do both as a musi-'.• � eian and as an actor. The story is�we�l adapted for musical interpreta­tion, and is too well known to need­re-telling. In it Massenet has foundand seized his opportudity for thedisplay of his especial talent-thelyric gift. It is told that Massenetused to write a song every morning, ,b�ore breakfast; he called it "tuningup,"--. Of all the countless songs that�be must thus have produced veryfew have lived, but had he not have"tuned up" so conscientiously hewould never have been able to pro­duce such an opera as "Manon". Notthat "Manon" fulliUs every desirefrom the orchestral point of view, but• it does contain more that is pleasantand satisfactory than many otllferoperas that enjoy a large vogue inopera repertoire. There are timeswhen the orchestration is pitifullythin; the effects, especially in' thetimes when a' temendous climax isdesired, ire childish in the,ir obvious­ness and their evident meebanism­that is, the brasses and the drums blareand beat on dominant chords in a.manner worthy of a "conservatoire"tyro, but on the other hand, in thequieter moments of restrained thoughintense feeling, Massenet has' givenus music that one' remembers, andthat it. is worth remembering. Mas­senet has been accused of being too"sugary"-perhaps at times he is atrifte "sweet" for ears trained to lis­tendo· .Wagner 'and S�-\lSs, 'but inscenes like the "supper table" and theone when! the young abbe is strug_gling to free himself from the-mem­; f,ory ot. Manon, Massenet has risen �.\ 'ltbe heights of great opera. Then too,., �,the story, is one that gives the com- ,'� _ poser �ull scoPe in betraying the\" I gamut of human emotions., There is'. temptation and the strUggie against;\ �e� is love of se�eral. sorts; there, IS Jealousy, there IS prIde, there is,1 intimacy of scene, there is music of't'� \ the crowd, and there is the final sceneI, of repentance and �uffering and pay­ing for sin. In fact, when ManoDsinks dying in the arms of her loveramid the arid fields of Louisiana shebreathes the words-"C'est fini-l'his­�toire de Manon Lescaut", and youeome away feeling that you have lived,; �r tempests through wit) her and_ ,-"C'est fini-l'histoire de Manon.� l! Lescaut'P!!! To -have accomplished, r such Aln effect seems to me to have. li I �me as near � writing a successful� .. - "opera as can well be done.'tIl :. The music as well as the story re­. volves around Manon and Des Grieux,her lover; the other roles are so smallas to become almost negligible. The( ,Manon. of Miss Amsden was .a thin,i � 1 pale thmg. Her voice has a ttrident,t�' �'\ piercing quality that is most �-1.• ' greeable, but even this one cculd for-,� give did she but sing on pitch; how-j' ever, for most of the time she was soti, far off pitch that she seemed to sing in'a different key from that of the or-'� chestra. And her acting-e-sh-s-s-s!I, let, us pass lightly over that less we'1 � seem unkind.'To write' of Lucien Muratore is ai joy. One hardly knows where to be-\ I gin to praise. He is the eonsummate, ( . artist from beginning to end. His, singing is almost perfect; not thatI i better, bigger voices do not exis� but') there is no artist who uses hi� voice,, with more skill and perfect control,, I' ; and •• for hi. diction-it i s : perfection,. ,.��, 's��� ,,'',....,ttts..4i _:__ ��'.'t.,","'�._.. .... .- ··.l_·l ... ·__..
