ATLANTA, GA. — Christo pher Lynch, lyric tenor of con certs, radio, and television, will be heard in a concert under the auspices of Sacred Heart Altar Society and Mothers Club at the Sacred Heart Auditorium, 310 Courtland Street, Atlanta, on Thursday evening, December 9, at 8:15 o’clock. The young Irishman, a protege of John McCormack, was born in Rathkeale, Ireland, thirty years ago,- and came to this country in 1946. The son of a Limerick stock farmer, Chris topher sang in the local church choir, as a boy soprano, and even tually as a first tenor. His high, clear vocie convinced the wife of a Rathkeale banker that he had potentialities as a singer, and she encouraged in Christo pher an interest in good music. At an amateur .musicale in Limerick, the O’Mara brothers, well-to-do merchants and friends of John McCormack, heard the Rathkeale lad sing and deter mined that McCormack should meet him. The famous Irish tenor, then in retirement, listen ed to the O’Maras’ enthusiastic reports of young Lynch, and a- greed to grant him an audition. When McCormack heard Cristopher Lynch for the first time, he said: “A beautiful voice, and a fine upstanding Irishman.” To the day he died in 1945, John MvCormack’s interest in Christopher Lynch never dimi nished. He sent the boy to his own teacher, Dr. Vincent O’Brien of Dublin. McCormack coached the young tenor in repertoire and passed on to him the ideas and theories he had garnered in his own golden career. He be queathed to Christopher Lynch his little black book of lyrics THE DINETTE CAFE 246 IVY ST., N. E. ATLANTA, GEORGIA ACROSS FROM ST. JOSEPH'S INFIRMARY FORGET TRAFFIC WORRIES — TAKE A TAXI!

ATLANTA 1, GEORGIA WALNUT 0316 LONG DISTANCE 421 CHRISTOPHER LYNCH that had been a familiar part of every concert. Christopher Lynch landed in the United States on Friday, the 13th of September, and he has never considered it an unlucky day. With" him was his bride of a few months, the former Dymp- na Daly, “sweetest girl in Coun ty Clare.” The feel of New York’s 'side walks had hardly settled under his brogans, when he was facing an expectant, friendly, but high ly critical, audience in New York’s shrine of music, Carnegie Hall. It was a brilliant debut, highlighted by the fact that not only were New Yorkers atten tive, but a coast-to-coast hook up brought the entire United States, into listening range. The Limerick country boy with his robust good looks, mod est charm, and lyric tenor voice completely captivated his audi ence, even to the blase critics of the press, one of whom was moved to write, poetically: “He sings. . . . and you can smell the shamrock”. Lynch’s auspicious debut was followed by the first of many cross-country concert tours, in which the newspaper folk of other cities were in ac cord with the praises of their fellow writers in New York. He has always been interested in opera and, because his studies in that direction in Italy were interrupted in the interests of his American career, he hopes to return to Rome soon, and do some serious operatic coaching. “John McCormack wanted me to do this”, he explains in his soft Limerick brogue, “And I’m thinking I should’t be disap pointing him, after all he did for me.” Installation Held By Savannah Fourth ree K.
