Marina Svetlova To Appear Here Youth, beauty, grace, a woman of infinite talent and intellU gence these describe Marina Svetlova, prlzia ballerina of the Metropolitan Opera association, who appears here Thursday, April 10, at the Pelican theatre with her touring company composed of Robert Roland, Elena Imaz, and concert pianist, Claude Jeaa Chiasson. Having returned this summer from an extensive South American tour where she caused a sensation, Marina Svetlova has not only appeared in this country and Canada, but in Mexico, Cuba and Australia as well. The New York Tribune said of her dancing: "Marina Svetlova of- fered the best dancing ever seen at the Met." From tha New York Sun: 'The Met's bal lerina will take your mind off of music." The concert is spon sored by the Klamath Commu nity Concert association. Born in Paris of Russian par ents. Miss Svetlova began danc ing at the age of nine, studying with such famous teachers as Preobrajinska, Trefilova and Gzovsky. .Her inherent spirit of the dance was immediately rec ognized, and she w s known as the "baby ballerina." Serge Lifar, ballet master of the Grand Opera of Paris, said of her: "All her movements are inspired and her lines enticing ly fluid." Three years later Marina Svetlova won the International Championship of the Dance. Signing with the Original Bal let Russe de Monte Carlo in the early days of the war, the very young artist toured in all previ ously mentioned countries, as well as performances in the art center of this country which in cluded the Philharmonic Audi torium of Los Angeles, the Chi cago and Boston Opera Houses, Carnegie Hall and the Holly wood Theatre of New York. Internationally- famous as a League Program "Economics for Everybody," a slide film, will be shown at the regular meeting of the League of Women Voters in the Pelican party room at 2 o'clock Wednes day, March 26. The narrator will be Mrs. E. Webb-Bowen and the discussion leaders, Mrs. Leo Sagehorn, Mrs. Fred Rueck and Mrs. Q. W. White. All women in the community are urged to begin now with league members to work toward an understanding of the vitally related problems of economics and government. The program is nation-wide. This concerted effort may bring substantial results. "Who knows what happier new years are in store for the human race, if we can learn to handle our abundance wisely," stated An nahard Strauss, national president. Ballet Russe star, Svetlova shat tered a tradition of ten years standing when, in 1943, sha' was appointed Prima Ballerina of the Metropolitan Opera asso ciation. Because sne loves Danes and is eager to share its enjoy ment with as many audiences as possible, she has organized he p ent company, and when not appearing as the dancing; star of the Met, she brings bril liant ballet performances to concert hall audiences in as widespread a territory as Met ropolitan schedules permit.
