Overland history, executives point
out that tho company's car 'build

The. range of Scliipa's varied
experiences Is said to bo reflected
in his singing, and It is to his
ability to Interpret his songs in
terms of life that his success1, is
largely due.
- "Sing so your audience sings
with you,' declares this great
tenor. "Make them happy. Sing
the songs they love."
By a curious coincidence Schipa's
