the Worlds Series every fall an inter

American League club will play every
National League club a series of eight
games, the worlds champion being
decided as the pennant winner in the
league which comes out on top.

the two major leagues to about two
thirds of its present size, and occupy
the time thus saved by putting on an
interleague schedule by which to de-
termine the champion league The
pennant winner in that league, Of

are taking much for granted.

PARSlFAL DONE IN z
II HONOR OF WAGNER.

Victor Nilsson in The Minneapolis
Journal: In honor of the Wagner
centenary Parsifal was given in an in
terpretative recital arranged by mem
bers of the faculty of the Johnson
School Of Music, Oratory and Dramat-
lie Art, Tuesday night. Mrs. Louis Sol
EN-, presented by Maude Moore, did the
reading while Gustavus. johnson play
ed selections from the music drama.
Mr.. Johnson prefaced the pro-
gramme with some fitting remarks
about the Wagner centennial and
music dramas, explanatory in particu-
lar of the last great masterpiece,
Parsifal. The numbers played were
the prelude and opening scene and the
chorus of the knights in the hall of the
Grail from the first act, the descriptive
music about Klingsor's magic castle
and flower garden, and the scene de-
plotting their destruction from the sec
ond act, the Good Friday spell and the
glorification of the Parsifal from the
third act. Mr.. Johnson a~pologized for
a pianistic rendition, devoid of the
fullness and variety of coloring lent
only by the modern orchestra, but
succeeded in Stimulating many fine or
chestral effects, and throughout gave
a faithful Interpretation Of the sym
bolic music.
Mrs. Solem's text was not a literal
translation of Wagner's poem, but
Oliver Huckel's lightly paraphrastic
version. Wagner's own text would
have placed difficulties insurmountable
in the way of a recitalist. For in
stance Kundry, the only woman in the
drama, has in the first act only a
pantomimic part. The Huckel version
gives her some lines, and Mrs. Solem
appeared In Kundry's weird apparel,
made of "glittering snakes skins"
throughout the evening.
Mrs. Solem, whose presence is tall
and commanding, gave a lovely lucid
and detailed reading of the work, inn
p~ersonating all It's various, characters
with contrasting effects. The accents
were all true, although perhaps n
would have wished more of the fierce
robber Of the forest in the accents of
Parsifals as he rudely intrudes upon
the sacred precincts OF Mount Salvat

with oneesllot from his bow.
