P-TA Gives Up Plan
To Sponsor Opera Star
In Valley Concert
Plans for the presentation of
a concert here by Miss Marita
Farrell. Metropolitan Opera star,
have been abandoned, it was an
nounced this week by Mrs. A. H.
Mick, head of the Palmer chap
ter of the Parent-Teacher’s As
sociation.
Since the singer had asked for
a date sometime in June, when
Valley farmers are busiest and
summer recreational activities
are in full swing, it was thought
that not enough community sup
port could be gained for the con
cert. Financial arrangements
also were higher than the P-TA
felt it wise to make, since the
chapter would have to under
write any loss on the concert.
Miss Farrell will appear in an
Anchorage operetta on June 20,
21 and 22. The singer expects to
spend about three weeks vaca
tioning in the Territory. She also
plans a concert for Kodiak dur
ing her stay.
