NXNHAT Next in Music?" is the
w title of a lecture recital to be
given by Marion Rous in the Central
High School auditorium tomorrow
evening at Sis, under the auspices of
the Washington Society of Fine Arts.
Miss Rous calls this recital an "anat-
omy of modernism" She eXpounds
ultra modern music and plays exam
pies by composers of various schools.
Her So ndpoint is neither for nor
aCainst the type of music she plays.
She merely presents it to the audi
ence. When she gave a similar re-
cital IN New York at Aeolian Hall
the critic of the New York Times
spoke of her witty and humorous YER
bal sketches of the composers given
al she played them, with a musical
equipment adequate to the task. She
is said to possess a broad background
not only of music in both the tech
meal and artistic senses, but also a
general cultural depth of under
standing.
Her program tomorrow evening will
include compositions by Ornstein,
Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Scriabin, Pro-
kofieff, Goossens, Lord Berners, Cyril
Scott, John Ireland, Malipiere, Auric,
MiIhaud, Honegger, Poulenc, Bella
Bartok, Susan Dyer, Jean Wiener and
Percy Granger.

Quoted "f'lordora.' July of that
year he was requested to appear in
concert before the diplomatic CORDS
by the Persian consul general.
This new conductor at the Rialto
does not like jazz and tells of unusu-
ally ambitious plans that should be
of interest to all who are interested
in musical progress in the city. Peray
Granger, Levitski, Ornstein, pianists
Bonci, tenor, and Rosenblatt, noted
Jewish cantor, are among prominent
so1oists whom he is planning to bring
as guest artists to give programs of
fine music with his orchestra. Mr..
Guterson seems, from lists of pro-
grams which he has presented in Los
Angeles and elsewhere, to be espe-
cially capable at arranging attractive
and unusual programs. From Bach
and Beethoven to Debussy. Scriabin,
Strauss, Rachmaninoff and Stravinsky
he has taken musical gems for his
performances. Wagner and Tschai-
kowsky have furnished entire pro-
grams. The moderns, such as Victor
Herbert, Ernest Schelling and Leo
Sowerby of the recent and present
American school, are not neglected,
either. 1t is to be hoped that Mr..
Guterson's efforts along this line will
meet with cooperation from Wash
ington's music public.

Rombers and Blossom

CIGMUND ROMBERG, who combined
~ we'll known melodies of Franz
Schubert into the score Of Blossom
Time" the operetta, which is coming
to Polls 'Theater on March 8, has
told some of his methods in handling
the Schubert score.
Romberg, like Schubert, is native
of Vienna. He loved and played
Schubert's works when he was stu
dent at the University of Vienna He
has succeeded in giving a compre-
hensive idea of the music of Schu-
bert in d blossom Time" In many
instances melodies have been I'M
changed, merely fitted together. But
in one or two instances he expanded
themes.
The work led Romberg to a new
study of Schubert, not only his music,
but the man. He learned some amaz-
ing things. The modern popular COM

PHILADELPHIA IN THE WINTER
OF 1777-I77S.

Located in what Ia considered the
richest agricultural belt in the coun-
try, Philadelphia offers to feed visi-
tors to the Sesquicentennial EXPOSE
ton next summer with choicest VIC
tuals. Its reputation as a farming
center dates back to Revolutionary
War days. In fact, the fertility of
the surrounding country had much to
do with the decision of the British to
occupy the city during the winter Of
1777-78. If it had not been for the
strategy of Washington, the British
troops would have Toasted royalty
during the period.
When it was learned that Sir Will
liam Howe. commander of the Brit
ish forces, was marching on the city,
nervous suspense gripped the inhabi-
tants. They boarded their money.
buried their silver and secreted as
much imperishable food as their cell
lars would hold.
The suspense ended one day in
September, 1777. when squadron Of
dragons galloped down one of the |
main streets. These were followed
by columns of grenadiers, brilliant in |
their red coats and red caps fronted |
with silver shields. Behind the grena-
diers came the hated Hessians, bar |
barrie looking in their fierce mus
taches and towering brass head |
gear.
AS soon as they were within the |
city. the British Communicated all |
foodstuffs, and prepared to establish |
a line Of supply reaching out into the |
fertile fields of the surrounding |
country. The idea was good, but |
Washington would not have it that |
way.
A month passd and he swept down |
upon the main British encampment |
at Germantown, short distance |
north of the city. In the battle that |
followed. his forces were defeated BY |
superior British numbers, but e |
taught the occupants that they could !
not venture too far out without dan
ger. Later Washington went into |
his winter camp at Valley Forge.
only twenty miles from the city, and
the British found themselves in q
state of virtual siege.
An extract from a letter written by |
q British officer at the time gives an
idea OF the wisdom Of Washington's
action.
Beef Is nine shillings per pound"
the officer wrote. "and bread costs
six shiiiings quarter loaf"

quietly by councilmen, who also were
unmoved by a letter accompanying
it from Mayor Shank, who asserted
he had provided ample funds for the
ensuing administration with a tax
levy of $1.0625.
Members of the board Of sanitary
commissioners were lobbying with
council members after the meeting
in the hope of obtaining an increase
in their allotment which Shank
lambasted from 7% to 511 cents.

Biggest Steal
1.-THE biggest steal ever pulled off
in Indianapolis, was Rays descrip-
ton of the arrangements perfected
for the sharing of costs of the Belt
Railroad bridge across the new
channel of White River near Ray
mond St., necessitated under flood
prevention plans.
And oh what a hurry there was
to complete this deal" said Ray.
Johnny King and others read the
track elevation contract and think
it was unsatisfactory to everyone,
but the board Of works and P. J.
Landers, superintendent of the Belt
Railroad"
Ray said Ogden, King and him
self had understood at meeting OF
the board of works Monday when
they protested the signature of the
elevation contract, because of

clause that specified that tracks
elevation on the south side would
await completion of arrangements
OF flood prevention, that the board
would. delay it's decision until Friday
TO allow them time to take steps to
investigate.
But what did they do?" he ex-
planned I'm convinced in my own
mind they signed it thirty minutes
after we had left the room"
Contract Hidden
Ray said Elmer Williams, secre-
tary of the board, had refused per-
mission to John E. King Wednes-
day to examine the elevation con-
tract, declaring that he had been
instructed by the board that no one
should see it.
Board members Monday removed
from the elevation contract clause

bear the expense of elevation bridge

to build with the widening of h.
New York ST. when Ogden and the
south side councilmen protested
Ogden said he believed the improve
ment would cost 100000.
This arrangement was perfected
between the board and the Belt Rail
road in exchange for the Belts
agreement to bear one-half of the
cost of the $1,4o0,OOO White River
bridge. Landers admitted at the
meeting Monday.
Ogden has declared he has legal
opinions that sustain his contention
the Belt road should assume the
entire burden of the White River
bridge.
Ray reiterated his assertion that
the board transacts 90 per cent OF
| it's business in the back room and
asserted it's members promise the
people something in the front room
and deny it later in the rear room. y

TAX BOOSTS
In PROSPECT
Budget Figures Would Pro-
vide for Increases.

Marked increase in taxes is in
prospect for Indianapolis and Ma
rion County taxpayers for 1925.
Based on budget figures prepared
| by various tax units the Center
Township in Indianapolis levy may
reach $2S6 as against the present
levy Of S25S. For Washington Town
ship in the city tn figure may go
as high as 1910.
The city budget as submitted to
the city council Wednesday, night
provides for a levy of S1.02625, which
is three-quarters Of a cent higher
than the 1925 figure. Figures given
out by County Auditor Harry Dunn
! call for an increase in the total
county levy of 5.5 cents, and indica-
? tons are that there will be an in
I crease of from p to % cents in the
school levy.
Should the council carry out it's
} threat of reducing the park levy
from s to Z cents, the city levy would
then be three-quarters of 2. cent less
| than this year.
