of the orchestra, Mr. Downey sang that sterling
old—and yet comparatively modern—Irish favo-
rite, "Too Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ral, THAT'S an
Irish Lullaby." The song is one of the many
gems in The Witmark Black and White series.
It remains a feature of the program during the
present extended Paul Whiteman tour.

Paul Whiteman's Concert
at Carnegie Hall
Orchestra Wins One of Greatest Successes
Ever Had Within Walls of Historic Structure
The Paul Whiteman Concert in Carnegie
Hall recently was an innovation even for that
temple of music in all its grades and moods, but
it was also one of the most stirring successes
ever registered within those historic walls. It
was, of course, a typical Whiteman program,
filled with surprises, musical gymnastics and
harmonic effects that won genuine enthusiasm.
One of the surprises of the evening was fur-
nished by Mortan Downey. A member of the
Paul Whiteman aggregation, he suddenly laid
aside his saxophone and stepped forward into
the spotlight. To the graceful accompaniment

Death Takes Puccini,
Famous Opera Composer
Writer of "Tosca," "La Boheme," "Madame
Butterfly" and "Girl of the Golden West"
Dies in Brussels
Giacomo Puccini, the famous composer and
writer of internationally popular operas, died in
Brussels on Saturday of last week, where he
was undergoing radio treatment for ;i malignant
growth in the throat. Puccini was the com-
poser of "La Boheme," "Madame Butterfly,"
"Tosca," "The Girl of the Golden West," and
numerous others.
While Puccini was dying his "Madame But-
terfly" was being triumphantly presented in
Rome and "La Boheme" was presented at the
Metropolitan Opera House, New York, on the
evening of his death. By order of General
Manager Gatti-Casazza Chopin's funeral march
was played during a pause in the action.
The American renditions of Puccini's operas
rivaled in popularity those of past masters. His
"La Boheme" was played here 140 times;
"Tosca," 130, and "Madame Butterfly," 122, all
together a total of over 500 Puccini perform-
ances have been made when the opera tours
are included.
