"One A 1 o n e, which falls to the lot of Perry Askam, the leading man, is a beautiful number, already known nationally by having been broadcasted over nearly all the The radio hookups. Desert Song itself, whicli is the theme song, provides the opportunity for petite Elvira Tanzi, the prima donna, to join her brilliant soprano with Askams rich baritone. Other great favorites with the public are The Sabre Song, that Tanzi does as a solo, as in well as Romance, which she accompanies herself skillfully on a harp. Then there ia One Flower in Your Garden, a tenor solo, that David Reese is said to stop the show with. Even the comedian, Eddie Fetherston, has two song hits in One Good Man Gone Wrong, and It. Myrtis Grinley helps him put these over. Nenette Yalion docs not sing; but as the native girl, Azuri, she contributes ( a splendid piece of acting that evokes many rounds of applause. Nora White is a seductive Spanish dancer, and there are more than a score of dancing NENETTE VALLON AS AZURI" beauties to support Miss in The Desert Song" White; while an unusual feature is the splendid male chorus of thirty that vie with the principals in winning the plaudits of the audience. Other principals entrusted with important roles are Charles Yillar, John Markyl, Yiolette Derbeck and John Wagner. The Dcseit Song," unlike many other operettas, has a well defined plot, with its action laid in the Algerian desert. Its principal character is Red Shadow," mysterious leader of a band of Riffs, protector and avenger of the natives, a thorn in the side of the French Legion. He is a former officer of the Legion and the son of its commanding general; but no one even suspects this, excepting Azuri, a native girl, who endeavors to use her own knowledge in a spirit of revenge. There is said to be plenty of suspense, adventure, and romance in The Desert Song, with delightful comedy touches running unexpectedly all through the plot. A symphony orchestra under the direction of Cecil Stewart, which has been with the operetta since its premiere in Los Angeles more than a year ago, insures perfect rendition of the Romberg score. As a matter of tact. Miss Albertson, the producer, promises to bring here the same principals in the large company of nearly 100 as participated in the establishment of new house records in almost every city in California where The Desert Song was presented. ternoon wear, kid, suede Shoes and patent leather combined with Dress sr.ake, lizard or pearl kid in straps, bands and pipings.
