In Time With the Tunes By RUBY JACKSON In Portland last week the San Carlos opera company presented a series of music dramas to ca pacity crowds. In Portland last week Mr. John Stark Evans, professor of music, directed a reportedly gorgeous performance of Beethoven’s “Missa Solemnus,” with such no tables as Don Eva and Verne Sellin taking part. In Portland in a week or two the La Scala opera company will put in its bid for attention and get it. Among its stars are Tito Schipa, Martinelli, and Richard Bonelli. Portland Gets Flagstad To Portland during the 1941 42 concert season will come Kir sten Flagstad, said to be one of the greatest Wagnerian sopranos of all time. What about Eugene? Couldn’t arrangements be made to get Flagstad and perhaps one or two operas? Attendance—the Water loo of the last opera scheduled here—would take care of itself once the performances were ac tually announced as part of the UO educational activities series. It’s worth thinking about. Easter day always brings a lot of the world’s best music to our radios. Number one place goes tomorrow to the New York Phil harmonic broadcast, which will offer an all-Wagner program as follows: Prelude to “Tristan and Isolde”; Isolde’s Narration; Ve nusberger music from “Tann haeuser”; Seigfried’s Rhine Jour ney, Funeral Music, and Immo lation Scene, all from “Goett daemmerung.” (CBS, 12 to 1:30 p.m.) Ford Presents Five thousand voices singing the “Hallelujah Chorus” should prove quite a novelty, but that’s what will happen on the Ford Sunday evening hour. (CBS, 6 p.m.) Musical selections of note will be presented on the same program. Though the program for the NBC Saturday concert under Tos cannini has not been given in ad vance, it should prove excellent as usual. (NBC, 6:35 to 8 p.m.) Enders, Movie Star Appear in Life 'Shot' John H. Enders, '38, is pic tured in the April 14 issue of Life magazine with Veronica Lake, actress star of “I Wanted Wings,” and two fellow cadets at Ran dolf field, Texas, where he is in training.
