Josef Waldrnan,
Western ViOlinist.
Makes His Debut
Possesses Generous Tone and
Ample Technique; Mar
guerita Sylvia Gives Song
Recital; Bonci i'm Concert

Yesterday afternoons concerts
brought a repetition of Friday eve
ning's program by the National Sym
phony Orchestra, with Ossip Gabrilo-
witsch, soloist, at Carnegie Hall; the
debut of young violinist, Josef Wald-
man, at Aeolian Hall, and song re-
cital by Nine. Marguerite Sylvia, at the
Times Square Theater.
Mr.. Waldman was born in Salt Lake
City and received most of his musical
training in Philadelphia and in this
city. Yesterday he set himself the
task of playing two concertos, Vieux-
temps's No. in d minor and Paga-
minis in D major, besides several
pieces by Bach, Achrcn and Wieniaw-
ski. He has generou, tone and ample
technique. Otherwise lis playing ex-
hibited no striking characteristics.
Nine. Sylva's recital was an informal
affair. Between numbers the singer
addressed the audience and explained
the songs which included groups by
French, Spanish. Russian and Ameri-
can composers.
Nine. sylvia will soon appear IN
George Cohan's Revue. Perhaps it
was in preparation for this type of
work that she introduced a foolish war
song concerning the difficulties of an
American soldier who could not speak
French and French girl with linn
tied English vocabulary, into the mid
die of program dignified no less by
the names of Gluck, Gretry, Four
drain, Debussy, Rachmaninotf, Gretch-
aninoff. than by the high quality Of
the singers performance. Still, in spite
of this bit of vaudeville, Nine. Sylvia
remained throughout the program an
artist of the first rank She used her
vgice with admirable discretion, and
her phrasing and diction, particularly
in the French songs, were of the finest.
Nine Sylvia has always shone as an in
terpreter Her Carmen is one Of the
most vivid and compelling perform
ances that we remember. So, it was
not surprising that without the aid of
costume and scenery her thorough
knowledge of the art of singing and
native intelligence would triumph with
interesting results.
Coenraad V. Bos was the accompanist
and. by way Of variety, Miss Natalie
Boshko' contributed some rather me-
diocre violin playing.
In the evening at the Lexington The
ater Alessandro Bonci made his first
appearance of the season. The tenor
was in excellent condition vocally and
sang with all his accustomed art. The
assisting artist was Miss Helen Yorke,
who appeared at the same house week
ago. But the evening was Mr.. Bonci's,
and he was generous with ppcorcS

Colleges Set New Record
In Increased Enrolment

American youths entering colleges
and universities have increased in
numbers to such a degree during the
last six years that if the proportionate
growth is continued to 1850 there will
be l,l39,0O0 students in 21O institu-
uons, where 294,0O0 were enrolled last
year. These figures, compiled bv the
Institute for Public Service, of which
julius II. Barnes is the chairman. have
raised the question Of where The money
to educate these larger groups of stu
dents will come from.
Mr.. Barnes finds that this years in
crease in the number of students en-
rolled in the college sets a new record
Colleges which in 1914 had $4,000 stu
dents and last year 294 900 will enroll
an 900 in 1880, and 831 900 in 1850, if
they continue the same increase each
year. If they grow at the average per
centage rate of the last six years thew
will have 659,000 students in 1880 and
l,l3o,000 twenty years later.
Iaking the lower estimate for 1850
says Mr.: Barnes, it means finding fa-
cilities for more than three times the
total for 1920, at six or seven times
the salary cost. 1t means, too, he as
serts the adding of $4,000 studen,s
or 200 colleges the size of Yale last
year. "Wll the money to provide
education for the increased number
OF students come from taxation, en-
doWment, private gifts and larger
fees? ?" he asks. "Must present univer
sites grow or more univerties be
built ?"
The largest increase within the last
six years is credited to the College Of
~" City OF New York. with a growth
Of $500. The University of California
follows next, with an increase of 620O.
