(Special to the Yellow Sheet) . F,~ S. C., MARCH 31.-Mau atson, greatest baritone of all as lout his voice I The noted uMani and former director of' q 0810at the University of South CarW Was unable to give his scheduled rnance in the Lugoff Opera 'here tonight. tte4on has not appeared before ublic for several months for, with rtist's temperament, he declared ,-is.t- ereer wrecked when the University 40thorltes dismissed him on charges /alleged miscodduct on tours with 64frt's glee club. The well known (sitger was prevailed upon however to Ti1e a concert at the benefit of the dIe's Missionary League here to Th'ie hoose had been sold out for ? Aysva distinguished audience -had her6d in the theatre here and Mat es n wilked upon the stage amidst a thder of applause which testified to he tever dying esteem in which he ,a held by all music lovers. The lea der of the orchestra began the first !,i:selection, twice did the singer open his mputh in an effort to sing and all he was able to do was a feeble croak. e then rushed from the rostrum a oken ihan. .VELLOW SHEET correspondent aIately went back of the stage to nvig_ Mattesqn and was granted ew minutes with the sensation of the hpur, It developed that the baritone 'ad been- grieving for the past few months over his dismissal from the music department of the University -;Qf Suth Carolina. All he would say iios "rhey were unjust, it is not true." e was referring to his recent trial b*the University authorities which re suIted in his dismissal. The charges "were brought up by the discipline com ' iittee which claimed that Matteson, a married man, made unwelcome ad 'vances whil on tour with the Co-ed 'Glee Club to Miss "X" (name with ,held at trial), one of the members of that organization. 'At the trial, the notorious Miss "X," testified that Matteson paid violent court to her on all the trips and that he had sworn that he would elope with 'her to some foreign country if she would only become his bride. Matteson denied the charges and the plaintiff was unable to prove her char ges but the University Discipline Com mittee, acting upon the theory that anyone with the smallest blot upon his character should not be retained, dis missed Matteson from further duty at Carolina. It developed that the former direc toy of music had been brooding over this for the past few months, not so inuch over losing his position, for he adculd easily secure another, but be cause he was removed from the desire of his heart. This brooding and worry has probably affected his voice with 'the result shown here tonight. Mat teson says he will not consult any voice v;,specialists in an effort to have his re&ice restored. -~U.s.c.

Then amidst the pealing notes the chairman of the committee dismissed the case. "Ladies and gentlemen," he said, the state has been satisfied.
