...singers, singing in Russian, under the skilled baton of the Russian Jacques Samossoud found high favor. It mattered little to the Russian listeners that the opera is episodic and disjointed, lacking in theatrical unity; that Lisa's soprano (Eugenia Erminia Erganova) had a metallic edge and that Tenor Herman (Dimitri Criona) had to wheeze through a cold...
...year filled with the marriages of prodigies-George Herman ("Babe") Ruth to a showgirl; Charles Augustus Lindbergh to the shy, poetic daughter of an Ambassador; James Joseph Tunney to an outdoorish girl descended from one of the great steel families-not the least startling was the marriage of John Gilbert, ballyhooed by millions of shopgirls as the greatest living exponent of male sex appeal, to Ina Claire (TIME, May 20).

Its value is enhanced by ten illustrations by Herman Post, lately of Simplizissimus (Munich political-satirical weekly). In France the novel, not new, is in its 95th edition, a total respectable even in France where "editions" are smaller than...
