MUSI C
RUSSIAN BALLET RECITAL.
Thp second annual recital of a com
paratively new studio, teaching the
traditional methods of Russian ballet.
. was given last night before an appre
ciative audience of parents and friends
1 , at Pierce Hall. Mme. L. N. Vassilieff.
formerlv a dancer in th? famous Ballet
: Russ? of Serge de Dicghileff. present
ed a group of children and young girls
in this program. Vladimir Vasa, a
gifted pianist, who has b-en in Wash
, ington several seasons, played most of
th? accompaniments. He gave added
distinction and finish to a clever little
dance in the typical Russian manner,
"Mechanical Dolls,” with a music box
tune. This danre was reminiscent of
| on? of the features of the Chauve
Souris of several seasons ago. The chil
dren in this—Virginia Richmond. Char
lotte Galbraith and Melissa Smoot —
showed unsual abilitv to grasp the dra
| matte values of this number as well
as the rhythms
The dance which showed the most
poise and professional finish was a
gavotte danced bv Tatiana Gnoocheff
and I uisa Galbraith. It was danced
to Th- Glow-Worm." which has be
come famous as th? musical back
ground for a similar dance, originated
by Pavlowa. Both girls last night were
exceptionally graceful. Miss Gnoocheff
showed, perhaps, a more marked abilitv
as a dancer, apparently feeling the
rhythms completely, so that her danc
ing was always good co-ordination from
head to toe. Miss Galbraith, however,
showed decided ability in the miming
of the dance. Enthusiastic applause
demanded repetition of the dance.
Both girls, with Onalene Lawrence ns
third in a Pas de Trois. showed stand
ardized ballet steps and postures to
advantage with clean-cut technical
work. Mis« Lawrence also did a
“Dance With the Bow." with good
| technical work, to Grieg's "Anitra's
I Dance.” the Orientel theme sounding
oddly for a huntress' melody. Estelle
Norton did a "Doll Dance" very well
and Pauline Parissau and Shirley
Rosenburg were other good dance pupils
in solo numbers.
The little children appeared in Jap
anese. sailor, butterfly and a Russian
dance. In the butterfly number little
Lilly Zalipskv showed decided talent as
a mimic as well as a dancer. H. F.

AVIATRIX FACES
: LIFE PRISON TERM

Convicted Fourth Time on
i
; Bad-Check Charge—Judge
[ Assails Law as Unfair.
Bv the Associated Pres*.
' OAKLAND. Calif.. June fi.—Mrs.
1 Evelyn Rosencrantz. aviatrix and former
movie director at Holy City, Calif., to
day faced a life sentence in San Quen
tin Prison, instead of a projected air
. plane journey across the Atlantic, be
cause she recently cashed a bogus
check.
Mrs. Rosencrantz was convicted in
. Superior Court here Monday of cashing j
a worthless cheek for SIOO at a garage
’ It was her fourth conviction on a felony
• charge. Her three previous offenses
were cashing bad check*. Commenting
on the law. Judge Fred V. Wood said
; it was obviously unfair In this case.
“Here.'' said the judge, "is a woman
i convicted four times of cashing bad
f J checks for a total of S4OO. She must j
I' go to the penitentiary for life without 1
. I the right of parole. We have just con- j
I vlcted in this court a man. Arthur An- i
' | toinc. of brutally murdering his wife
land dismembering her bodv in order
, i that he might, marry a younger Woman, j
j He also is sentenced to life imorison- :
j rnent. but will be eligible for parole after ,
Ito years This is contrary to justice
i admitting this woman is guilty of all
charges against her.”
| Mrs Rosencrantz once had plans un- j
I der way for a transatlantic hop. She j
said she was temporarily deterred when I
I she accepted a position at Holy Citv a |
i religious colony in the Santa Cruz;
| Mountains, to organize a religious movie j
j company.

shift hospital at Point Barrow from the
exposure suffered on their long hike.
Although forced down, Noel Wien,
pilot, and L. Virgil Hart, leader of the
expedition, were able to continue by
plane to Point Barrow, Alaska’s north
ernmost tip, and conducted unsuccess
ful searches for their companions who
left Fairbanks tn another plane May 11
in company with Hart and Wien.
Blocked by fog, the planes became
separated and two days after leaving
Fairbanks were forced to land about
100 miles south of their objective, Point
Barrow. Hart and Wien landed on
Lake Deep Snow on May 13 and after
changing to big tires were able to con
tinue to Point Barrow, arriving there
May 14.
Wien and Hart then started in search
of their companions, and were unsuc
cessful. although they traveled more
than 2.200 miles in 25 hours’ flying
time.
Find Other Plane.
After the arrival of the relief plane,
which left on May 25. Niemlnen and
Wien located the other plane. Searchers
traveling by dog team found Merrill
about 30 miles from Point Barrow, and
four days ago Niemlnen picked up Rob
ertson and Clarke at about the same
place where Merrill was found
Merrill was temporarily snowblind,
Clarke had broken down tendons and ,
j Robertson was suffering from frost-bit- j
ten toes and fingers and stomach trou- i
ble. All are expected to recover in a ,
j few days, when Merrill and Wien hope
| to get the other airplane and fly it to
1 Fairbanks.
Hart, in Ills message to Ewing Scott,
i member of the expedition left here, said
that they can receive messages at Bar- |
row, but cannot send. They can hear i
Stations WUW. Seward, Alaska; KSL,
Nome; WVO, Washington.
The messages from Hart and Wien
were taken from Barrow to Kotzebue by
Niemlnen and Heyser. who arrived there

The expedition started for Point Bar
row to take scenes for an Alaskan pic
