However, when she was sixteen,
he announced to her she roust not
take piano lessons from him any
more. Much as it cost him to lose
his favorite pupil, he said be could
no longer give her piano lessons
with a clear conscience, after he
had discovered it was her voice
that would make her career.
Until that time, she had sung in
children's choirs without realizing
she might have a voice some day.
She now left the old German who
had been her teacher, and went to
a vocal instructor. Her progress
was rapid, so that before many
years had passed she was winning
a contest for the privilege of ap
pearing as soloist with the Balti
more symphoiryi with Rosa Raisa
and Charles Hackett sitting as
Judges. At that time Mme. Raisa
predicted Miss Burke would soon
be with the Chicago company.
A year later she entered con
tests of the National Federation of
Music clubs, as Marylands' repre
sentative, and shared the first
prize with one other singer.
In 1328 came the contest that
led directly to the fulfillment of
Rosa Raisa's prophecy. This was
the contest of the Julliard founda
tion of New York, which requested
all large musical institutions to
send one pupil each ico take part.
The five winners were to have one
or two years of training in Dres
den, with appearances there. Misa
Burke was one of (the five win
ners. She had never failed in any
fnntooi sh pntpred: and now a
higher honor was in store for her.
A part of the Jumara prize wnicn
cVio hurt wnn ru an audition be
fore Herbert M. Johnson of the
Chicago Civic Opera company.
She sang lor mm me x-aue, rate
Min Din" from "La Forma del
Destino," with which she had suc
ceeded before. After the audition,
she was told a contract would be
given her with the Chicago Civic
Opera company. She immediately
declinea tne resi oi me juiimru
prize.
Miss Burke made her debut In
November, 1928, in the role of
Aida, four other parte being ruiea
by Americans, Coe Glade, Charles
Marshall, Robert Ringling and
Chase Baromeo.
In addition to her Nedda in
which she will be heard by Uni
versity of Nebraska students, her
other roles include Donna Elvira
in "Don Giovanni." Elsa in "Lo
hengrin" and Micaela in "Car

With Miss Burke on the opera
program at the coliseum will be
Claudia Muzio, Richard Bonelli,
Antonio Cortis, Constance Eber

and a campaign to raise $1,000,000
for a building was started that fall
among alumni, student and
friends of the school. Year after
year a group of students went to
newcomers to the university for
subscriptions. The drive waa car
ried on among alumni and friends
of the university. By 1924, nearly
$600,000 had been pledged, and the
board of trustees let the contract

1927. The next unit will be one to
house a university theater.
Is Real Home.
According to Iowa officials, the
building has provided a home for
the university family. In addition,
it offers a pleasant environment
for parents to visit sons and
daughters. One of its greatest ad
vantages, according to an official
bulletin of the building, is that it
provides a wholesome atmosphere
where young men and women may
come together, and a hearth stone
for returning alumni.
The cultural influence of the
building also is pointed to by uni
versity heads. This is added to by
wholesome recreation.
Develops Spirit.
Development of community spir
it, the passing on of ideals of past
and present generations to future
students, housing of extra curricu
lar activities, development of stu

provement of social life in general
on the campus are other advan
tages which the Iowa bulldinc has
brought. . . .
The building serves the highest
interests of the university by
