AN ASTONISHINGLY FINE

YOUNG SINGER

A young newcomer to Hongkong made her first public appearance at the Sino-British Music Group Chamber Concert on Friday night at St Stephen's Girls' College Hall. Miss Joan Hadland, a soprano singer who received her musical train- ing at the Royal Manchester College of Music, has a voice of beauty and purity such as not been heard here in this writer's memory; intonation is perfect, and the effortless power is astonishing.

This voice could fill an opera house and outsing A full orchestra. As, always with a powerful voice, special attention must be given to clarity of diction, and Miss Hadland needs to be careful about this.

British Officers On Trial COUNSEL RAISES OBJECTION

TO AMENDING OF CHARGE

'An application by the Crown to amend a conspiracy charge was objected to when the trial of two British Army officers and a Chinese construction company manager opened before Judge K. R. Macfee at the Victoria District Court this morning.

Mr A. J. Clifford, representing the two officers, sub- mitted that the amendment was "bad in law and grossly unfair.!!

"

Accused are Châu Chung-sang, manager of the Shun Hing Con- struction Co., Major Donald Peachey, 47, and Captain Harry Curtis, 46, both of the Royal Engineers, attached to the RE Works Services.
