Paul Robeson was engaged to sing

at the
Shrine Mosque
on Friday,
April 1B,
1947. His
concert was
arranged by
Allen Cannon,
part time
music instructor
at Bradley
College. It
was one of aseries
of concerts promoted
tor the
sake of
profit and
to bring
noted singers
and
choruses to
Peoria. Previous
concerts had
received good
publicity
and are reported to
have been
very
successful and
profitable.
