After a four-year tour of Honk kong, Macao, Siam, Indo-China, and other spots in the' southern part of Asia, Mr, and Mrs. A. M. Lovizov have returned to Shanghai for a short stay prior to again covering the same countries with Russian songs. Four Years ago Mr, Lovizoy was a local Sentist, while his wife sang nonprofessionally at concerts and parties. Obsessed with the conviction that he foo had hidden musical talents, however, Mr, Lovizoy took his wife to Stacao where, afler a year at the Musical Academy, he became a master of the guiler and accordion, while his wife was proclaimed a finished artiste In glowing musical Feviews as far afield as in India. The Couple forthwith left on a tour and were welcomed wherever they went, except by authorities who suspect every. itinerant Russian of being 2 Soviet propagandist. "Natives in the south," states Mr. Lovizov, in love with Russian music. You can hear Russian songs in the streets, and in every house with a radio or gramophone. In Slam they sing such {ypieally Russian tunes as "Gaida 'Froika, and "Chaika" and even 'God Save the 'Tsar' in Malayan." In the Royal Galen Krum Theatre in Bangkok they sang to a full house of 2.00 people, among them several Sultans, one of whom was so moved that he presented Mrs. Lovizova with delicate Siamese brooch bespattered with diamonds. Russians can be met everywhere. Things Russian are very much in the vogue, and they made the acquaintance of two Rus-Sian ladies who have achieved the Status of Siamese princesses. Mr.
Lovizov, however, warns against leaving for the south.
