Heads wagged the other way after the performance for Rosa Ponselle had wrought the miracle. Not once had she flinched before the laciest coloratura passages, before measures that took her well into contralto regions, out again and up to the peak of the soprano scale. Her acting as the Druid priestess was less impressive; but critics found little fault, gave unqualified praise to her singing, to Conductor Tullio Serafin who found enough light and beauty in Bellini's score to make it well worth the revival...

With a theatrical flourish, 18-year-old Gene Cook of Atlanta won the title from redoubtable 'Watts Gunn, his clubmate. The B. Jones who reached the semi-final was Benjamin, of Druid Hills Club, Atlanta, and not chubby Robert Tyler Jones Jr., North Georgia's super-golfer. The latter, together with able Perry Adair of Atlanta, busies himself with his bond-selling between tournaments of national scope...
