D. M.C. 1. BREEZES 17 fer to pace up and down backstage. They claim this tends to calm jarred nerves and stimulate confidence. Space, unfortunately, is rather at a premium on the Isaac Brock stage, and thus these ambitious Thespians have to grin and say nothing. Method number three is a sure bet, “Be Non¬ chalant.” The only drawback to this method is that it is rather difficult to be nonchalant when you are striving to remember your words, your music, your cues, your dances, your exits, your entrances, and incidentally, your acting. Not only this, alas, but to maintain a dignity and sparkle with scintillating personality! “Wool - gathering” (apologies to Edw. Thomas’ “Aunt Ann’s Cottage”) is a dangerous practice for an opera singer, and should at all times be avoided. This is extremely bad for am¬ ateur theatricals, as it inevitably leads to the “I wonder where the family is sitting” plot. Here the mind may wan¬ der into several fields (or shall we call them sub-plots?) The most fre¬ quented field of thought-rambling is number one, which results in a scan¬ ning of brown hats, red hats, green hats—and before the actor can deter¬ mine the color of the hat behind the third post to his right ,he has missed, his cue and left his confrere stranded appallingly midstage. Of course, “wool-gathering” offers a splendid means of revenge, but in “respectable” theatrical circles it isn’t considered “sporting.” Co-operation is as necessary in musical and dra¬ matic production as it is in any other field of endeavor, and it is with great satisfaction that we report the splen¬ did feeling and co-operation that pre¬ vailed, among the members of the “Pinafore” cast. Now I hope next year when you go to see the opera, you will just keep in mind this little “revelation,” and don’t forget “The actor lives on his applause.”—No! I didn’t say “apple¬ sauce”—I said “applause.” DAVE YEDDEAU, 25. CONGRATULATIONS! To Miss Kinley and the Girls’ Glee Club, on having successfully defended the Hon. James Cox Aikens shield in the competition for Senior High School choruses. Also, on again winning the Earl Grey trophy, which is awarded to the winner in the competition, open to the winners in all classes of public school choruses. This is the fifth time this honor has come to Miss Kinley and the Daniel McIntyre Collegiate. To the Mixed Choir, on winning the Success Business College shield. This, as a new class in the Festival, was looked on as an experiment by the adjudicators. However, Sir Hugh Roberton pronounced it a triumph, and we may be justly proud of our Mixed Choir. To the Orchestra, which, under Miss Kinley’s capable conducting, gave such fine performances and obtained such great praise from Mr. Jacobson. To Ross Pratt, on winning the Aik¬ ens Memorial trophy, the J. S. Bach composition, and the Concerto for piano and orchestra. To Robert Brown, pianist in the winning trio for pianoforte, violin and violoncello. To Margaret Pincock, on winning second place in the Intermediate piano¬ forte duet. To Agnes White, on winning second place in the duet for two pianos, and on receiving special praise from Sir Hugh Robertson for her splendid ac¬ companiment of the Girls’ Glee Club. To Jessie Scott, Agnes White, and Grace Smith, on winning the Junior Girls’ trio. Also to Edna Chapman and Evelyn Monteith who, with Grace Smith, substituting for Winnie Inskip, won the highest marks in the prelim-
