GRUMMANN OUTLINES
STORY OF 'CARMEN'
Fine Arts Director Gives
Talk at Convocation on
Coming Opera.
Prof. Paul H. Grumann. direc
tor of the school of fine arts,
outlined and discussed the opera
Carmen." In a Pine Arts convo
cation held Thursday. March 13. at
11 o'clock In the Temple theater.
The discussion was of pertinent
interest to the students because of
the coming piriw-nlaliou of the
opera March 20.
The convocation opened with
'The Flower Song." a well known
selection from "Carmen." sung by
Walter Wheatley, professor of
voice.
"Carmen has been and still re
mains a most popular opera, ap
pealing to all levels of taste,"
Profossor Grummann declared.
This Is one of the best compli
ments that we can pay It, for it Is
eternally true that great music
may appeal to the siinpleiit of
men."
The composer shows us that it
Is possible to write music that
may deal with a tragic subject and
yet be buoyant and full of vigor,
according to the speaker. Too
many people suppose that tragedy
must necessarily be cast in a de
spondent mood, yet this is not at
all the case. Carmen is an out
standing example of tragedy
that remains in the major key.
"Bizet's 'Cftrmen' is based upon
a novel by Prosper Merimee. The
novel is a work of outstanding
merit, and the librettist has been
unusually skillful in condensing
the essentials of the original into
effective musical drama. The plot
moves on vigorously from point to
point, and the characters are out
lined with unusual subtlety," the
professor opined.
Exerpts from the sketch of the
story of Carmen by Professor
Grummann follow:
"The play begins with the char
acter of Don Jose, a guardsman In
the Spanish army. He has been
brought up by a devout, dutiful
mother, and has enjoyed a whole
some family life, impressed with
the Ideals of patriotism to such
an extent that he naturally be
comes a soldier of the king. In ac
cordance with the traditions of the
citizens class he has fallen in love
with iliscaela, a girl of the vil
lage. Miscaela Is a village girl of
the soundest character; dutiful,
modest, and attractive. It would
be difficult to find a young woman
better suited to the needs of Don
Jose than the one he has chosen.
He is sent off on duty and Mlcaela
brings tidings to him of his mother
She delivers to him the kiss that
is sent by his mother, a rather
clever way of indicating the love
that she bears for him, together
with her reverence for convention
and propriety."
"About the time when this hap
pens, Don Jose is standing guard
before a cigaret factory. Among
the girls who work in this factory
is one Carmen, who In every re
spect seems to stand out above her
associates. The various soldiers
and ulher men al once oike nole
of her, for they cannot help but no
tice the strong contia.it belween
her and her associates. Mindful
of his love for Micaela, Don Jose
refuses to pay attention to her
and attends to his military duties.
This exceptional behavior attracts
the attention of Carmen, in a
manner it challenges her, and she
throws a rose to the guardsman
and thus attracts his attention.
"The girls resume their activity
in the factory, but in a very short
time there is a great hubub and
we learn that there has been a
quarrel in which Carmen wounds
her adversary. The authorities
arrest Carmen, and turn her over
to the guardsman Don Jose for
safe conduct to prison. By her
potent personality, Carmen suc
ceeds in persuading Don Jose to
untie her fetters, and escapes."
'Don Jose has been guilty of a
serious lapse in his duty and pays
the penalty by months of imprison
ment. Carmen escapes from the
eruards and is now an outlaw. She
seeks ' Drotection with a band of
gypsies and smugglers who have
their headquarters in an inn up on
the border.
"To the tavern of the smugglers,
Don Jose follows Carmen after he
has been liberated from prison,
free on a short furlough. The per
sonality of Carmen has so in
pressed him that he cannot de9ist
from seeking her in her mountain
camp, and she too is In love with
him. Carmen makes it plain to
him that tho she does love him,
she is hardly willing to accept him
as a lover as long as he is the
representative of the hard and
fast conventional life of the gov
ernment soldier, the representative
of the little traditions In the vil
lage. "Don Jose is finally forced to
Join the outlaw band against his

will because he becomes guilty of
Insubordination on striking a su
perior officer who flirted with
Carmen. He does not become a
successful one because his home
spun virtues inculcated by his
mother are to strong to enable him
to enter In the new life with real
test and enthusiasm.
"Under these conditions. Don
Jose appeals to her less and less,
and when Kscamillo, the toreador
enters her life, she is favorably
Impressed. At this critical sUte
of rivalry between the two men,
Mlcaela arrives In camp bringing
news of the expected death of the
mother of Don Jose, who returns
to the side of his mother.
"The next act takes us to the
gates of the bull ring at Seville,
and the spirited music of the bull
fight adds to the tension of this
last act Carmen has come in
order to share the glory of the
toreador on his day of triumph.
But as she approaches the gate of
the bull ring she is intercepted by
Don Jose who again is in pursuit
of her. He has set his heart upon
Carmen and no toreador can stand
In the way of his purpose. He
makes this perfectly clear to Car

and the only possible thing hap

question, another topic of contro
versy in the student opinion column
of the Nebraskan. He stated that
he did not think it proper for
people to smoke where they an
noyed others in their presence by
doing so.
He told of one of his former col
leagues In the law college who ob
jected to seeing the cigaret butts
around the entries of the building
and set aside a smoking room for
the students to inhabit when they
wished to indulge.
Professor Robbins asserted that
about the only places on the cam
pus where students did not smoke
were in the room set aside for
smoking and in his office. H
stated that one could not expect
the university students not to
smoke, when faculty members
smoked.
Dislikes Cigaret Smoke.
He told of some of the better
class hotels which he had visited
where two dining rooms were
maintained one for smokers and
one for persons who did not wish
to smoke. He also told of one oc
casion where he requested the
waiter In a Chicago hotel to find
him a different table as the one
where he was sitting was sur
rounded by cigaret smokers.

SPECIAL BAGGAGE CARS
Some idea of the magnitude of
the annual undertaking which
carries Chicago Civic opera Into
other American cities, may be
fathered from the fact that two
eleven-car Pullman trains are
necessary for the nation-wide trek,
the equipment being equivalent to
two sections of the Twentieth Cen

ers, comprfrtment and drawing

and dining cars for each section.
In addition to these cars, no less
than twenty-seven special baggage
