There was noted the same delicate
nuances. the same beauty of phrasing,
elasticity of bowling and free finger
| play that has always characterized re-
citals of famous violinists.
But added TO all this there was an
added emotional quality, absolutely
free from cheap sentimentality or sen
satiOnalism that was strong in its ap-
peal
Playing without notes, and not
knowing what was coming next, the
playing of the guitar accompanist, Mid
worthy. 1t was difficult task to ae-
company the talented yiolinist who
played entirely from ear, and Mid
shipman Chase was master of the
situation.

The musical skit Baltimore
Bound" was cleverly done by the skill
ed pianist. who makes the piano talk,
not to say walk, rag time.
The closing feature THE Uproar
Grand" a parody on Grand Opera,
presented by Midshipman Northrup,
was feature of the program, the par
Elephants. Midshipman Abercrombie,
(soprano) Christensen and Klomah,
singing in truly grand opera style, a
heterogeneous mass of meaningless
words that had a similar effect on
the audience as that at the average
grand opera.
The concert was we'll staged, the
electrical effects pleasing, and the en-
tire performance credit to the par
Elephants and the great United States
Naval Academy, which they repre-
sent. 1t will be repeated tonight at
SIS and will give equal pleasure to
another large audience.
