Latest Singing Sensation
News comes to us of America’s latest singing sensation-one Dorothy Maynard, a lyric soprano-half Indian and half Negress. One noted critic declares: "This is the greatest singer I have ever heard." In her first concert in New York she stopped the traffic, and the New York critics, who rarely sit out more than two or three songs, were still in their seats at the end of the concert. She sings perfectly in German, French, Italian, and English. America can’t spare her, as yet, but in a year or two she may be singing to us on this side of the world.
