THOMAS AND LARGO
Bic LEAGUE BOUND
SAYS FORMER STAR

Red Davis had the following to
say in yesterday 'sFlorida Metropo-
lis:
big league bound" says Bradley
Hogg, former Philadelphia National
League pitcher, after he had seen
Herbert Thomas the local High
chool boy perform in Palatka the
other day. Bradley in his day was
one of the greatest pitchers who ever
went from the minors to the big
show, and his statement that Thorn
as is big league bound" merely
backs up several other predictions
which have been made concerning
this Youngsters chances of making
good
Since Thomas joined the Palatka
Pals several scouts have given him
the once over. Coach Joe Bean of
the Atlanta Athletic Club and Ty
Cobb's Southern representive in has"
ball made a special trip here not
long ago to look the high school phe-
nom over Coach Bean made his re-
port to Cobb and while his state
ment was not enough for the Tiger
leader to take him on right away,
assurances were made that in two
or three years some big league out
fit would have him.
Thomas, still student at Duval
was born July %, 1902, which makes
him nineteen years old, and with
careful attention and training it will
not be surprising, before he reaches
his twenty-frst year to see some
Glass A or AA organization with
him in their lineup.
Charley Larzo, the Pals sensation
al catcher, who was technically
signed by the Scouts, was also rec
commended by Hogg. This player,
according to others who have seen
him perform, is one of the greatest
catchers outside of organized base
ball. Larzo has been the backbone
of the team this season, possessing
an arm which is second to none with
catchers in the State League Larzo
is also heavy hitter, swinging fr,m
the port side. a..
Both of these players according
to Hogg are out of their stations at

ANNOUNCE PROGRAM
FOR Big CONCERT
Boston Symptoms Appear
ance Here Unusual Mu-
Sical Event

The program for the concert by the
Boston Symphony Orchestra in Mead
Memorial Chapel next Wednesday eve
ing December IA, is one comprising
great variety and picturesqueness. 1t
is in keeping with the reputation which
the conductor, Pierre MonteuX, has
achieved for organizing and executing
beautiful programs.
The concert opens with the master
piece of Cesar Franck, the Belgian
composer,-h Symphony in d Minor
This symphony is, on account of its
lofty beauty and eloquence, regarded
as the foremost achievement of the
modern French school of music. 1t
begins in the darkness of doubt and
rises to an exalted Climax The plain
tive English horn SOLO in the Alegretto
has become particularly famous. Mr..
Monteux is recognized as an authori-
tative interpreter of the music of this
school. At the production of this COM
position in SYMPHONY Hall in Boston
ten days ago, we read in the next
mornings report: "The audience was
stirred to enthusiasm at the start by
the splendors and beauties of Cesar
Franck's gloriication Of faith and the
joy of living"
The second number WI be the over
ture and fifth ballet from Beethoven's
Prometheus In the ballet are five
solos taken by leading members Of the
orchestra: the cello solo by Jean Be
detti flute solo by Georges Laurent
arinet solo by Albert Sand, bassoon
500 by Abdoh Laus, and the harp solo
by Alfred Holy OF the effect of this
number when recently put on a pro-
gram in Boston, the critic in the Bos-
ton Herald wrote "The delicate yet
firm lovein OF Beethoven's Prone
theus ballet muse was absorbed in a
tense silence rarely known in Sym
phony Hall" And he goes on to re-
late that the storm of applause was
prolonged until all the solo perform
ers were obliged to rise and acknowl-
edge the tribute
The next number is the brilliant and
riotous Carnival of Paris" by the not
ed Norwegian composer, Svendsen
This will be followed by the fam liar
overture to Wagners Tannhauser, de
picting the struggle between Christian
ity and paganism. The whole subject
and current of this opera is forecast in
the overture where the two chief
themes, or motives, the Pilgrims Choir
us and the sensuous music of the Hill
of Venus, strive with each other for the
mastery. 1t should be added that the
Middlebury program is entirely diff
ferent from the program which will be
given in Burlington on the preceding
evening.
The orchestra is in as nearly perfect
condition as can be and is playing 105
concerts during this season. 1t is a
wonderful organization, each member
being an artist of unusual ability. Be-
sides Mr.. Monteux, the famous con-
ductor, special mention should be made
of Richard Burgin, the concertmaster,
who, sitting at Mr.. Monteux's left at
the front end of the line of first vio-
Inns, is the acting leader in the execu-
tion of his commands He is the pivot
of the string sections which consist Of
90 players and form in sense the
most important part of the orchestra
Mr. Burgin has had a great experience
as soloist and is recognized as one OF
the finest masters of the violin now
living
