OF the caliber to answer the require

matter for comment.
When asked how he happened to
choose Washington as the field OF
his activities, Mr.. Hetzel said;
washington Is one of the three
cities in America which. in three
years travel. have decided had
the best possibilities for musical
growth. The other two are Los
Angeles and Montreal. Chance

has repeatedly risen in my mind,
why has Washington no symphony

Darcy Explains Objective
Herbert Clark, one of the fore.
most artists on the cornet in the
world and a very fine conductor,
conducted an experiment with an
industrial band in Canada for a
period Of five years and obtained
very fine results. He afterward
went to Southern California, where
he is now located, and gave a
symphonic concert in the Holly
wood bowl, using the entire family
of wind instruments. This concert
was played to approximately 1000
auditors. Critics acclaimed the re-
suits produced by Mr. Clarke and
the artists under his baton as pre-.
saying new area for the wind
band.
"1nstrumentalists in the Army
Band are with us permanently and
we can work together for the at
talnment of ensemble effects not

"Labored playing Of the brass
wind instrument group has been the
bane of most conductors lives. Ad-
mitting the technical difficulties in
the way of smoothing wind instru-
ment playing to the degree of ex-
cellence expected Of the violin and
string group, the problem is yet
possible of solution and not SO in

ITO be successful as a wind in

he produces effects in plain sight
