AMERICAN COMPOSERS

A y INTERESTING bit Of news from
n Paris says that two American students
in the Conservatoirc have qualified for the
PriN de Paris. which is next to the prix
dc Rome. the most coveted award in French
music circles. Both contestants have chosen
to compose tn" first movement of string
quartet as their thesis. which shows that at
all events they arc unafrad. as they have
chosen the most difficult Of all forms in
which TO compose effectively
Europe has thus fsr been more generous
to our composers than has tho American
public. For instance. MacDowcll and Still.
man k"lly have been more played abroad
than at home.
These young Americans arc the first 10
quarry in composition for any Of the big
prizes of France, and their success in the
preliminary tests must hn gratifying to
music lovers in the United States.
sooner or later the alcrncss of tho Amer
lcan mind and its individual and original
manner of thought will make its impress
upon music as it already has upon many
Of N" other arts and upon all tho sciences.
1t is unfortunate that their own country
offers IIttl" opportunity for the cultivation
of composition. but art is long" and the
over stressed. hectic life Of America, still in
thc thr""s of economic and material devcl-
opmcnt. does not yet offer the philosophical
tranquility needed for creative work in the
most subtle of all arts
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1921-12-06

indifference of the public is chiefly the result
of the natural disinclination of every man
to go into court even as witness when he
doesn't have to do so.
1t is useless for Mr.. Haynes TO expect
men to constitute themselves volunteer pro-
hibition officers. Most Americans obey the
Prohibition Law as they obey other laws
and strongly condemn violations of it. But
there has never yet been law in peace
times so popular that the citizens as body
concerned themselves in its enforcement and
there probably never will be. II there we're
such law a written statute would be un-
necessary, because its infractiOn would be a
violation Of the strongest of all laws--pub-
lie opinion
The troubles Of the enforcement officers
are many and serious but in the main they
will have to be worked out by tho officials
themselves And joking about it is, or
should be- one Of the least of these troubles

and to show them that this time the mag
mates mean to enforce the rules, the Babe
must be allowed TO pay this fine himself
In the past, one of the worst features of
baseball discipline was the fact that in the
case of star players the clubs paid the fines
inflicted, which naturally made the penalty
dead letter. However, in this case. it is
more than likely that the Babe will be al
lowed to wigglc out of the mess in the best
way he can. not because the magnates do
not sympathize with him. but because the
fine is too big. The pocketbook nerve of the
baseball magnatc also enjoys a high rating
in sensitivpness

DEMPSEY TAKES A REST
Champion Begins His Three-Day Lay or With a GO Mile Motor Trip to Camden.

Atlantic City. N. J., June 1.-Jack Dempsey's training camp was as quiet as q deserted village yesterday, the first of the four day lay off prescribed for the champion before he begins his intensive training grind Saturday.
 With Mike Trant, a Chicago detec- tive sergeant who acts as Major Domo of the champions camp. Dempsey motored to Camden, N. J., sixty miles distant.
 Tn line with his policy of a complete rest. Dempsey did not work at all to- day. He will suspend all training activ- ities for the next three days.
 Jack Dempsey's greatest asset in his ring battles has been the condition of his hands. The heavyweight title hold CT never was troubled with them. When he enters q rign he knows that his hands will be able to land crushing blows without breaking.
 Dempsey has no particular method for hardening his hnds. The hard, rough work he used to do in the mines probably helped tougher them, but they are naturally big, broad and strong. The skin on them is quite the same as a piece of shoe leather.
 The title holder takes particular pains 10 protect his hands, even in training. He personally binds them with tape. and then wraps them with felt bandage. one inch wide. Over this Dempsey pulls on a pair of leather gloves. with the fingers cut off at the base of the hand.
