No Additional
Paving Protests
Placed on File

No additional protests to the
east-end paving project were filed
with City Auditor NJ. II. Atkinson,
other than those presented at the
meeting Of the city commission
Monday night, the city auditor an
nounced today. The time limit for
filing of protests expired last night.
Protest petitions filed Monday
carried % signatures, but since
then. according to the auditor. two
Of the signers have filed written
notices that they wish their names
withdrawn.
At the next meeting Of the com
mission, which will be held Tue sday
morning, the board must pass on
the sufficicncy Of the protests and
determine whether or not the pro-
iect should be halted. Inasmuch as
only so few residents of the east
part Of the city signed protest
petitions. it is not believed likely
that the board will consider there is
sufficient opposition to cause post
ponement Of the work, according to
the city auditor.
Bids on the proposed paving will
be opened Monday night, April 16,

EASTER MUSIC.
FILLS AIR
TONIGHT

The most perfect Of great drama
in form and structure. to the philoso-
pher and the artist alike, the lire
and triumphant victory over death
of Jesus OF Nazareth, has provioed
composers with inspiration for their
greatest masterpieces, and the SEN
sitive ether will convey on this
Good Friday evening much or the
music 50 inspired to milnons OF
homes. Seldom has so much great
music been offered to all VINO may
care to listen.E From every section
Of the continent and the islanhS OF
the sea the sonorous harmonies re-
Elective of the Sublime Passion
come freely to those who would
place themselves in tune with the
many programs offered. The spirit
of the Easter season seems to have
so gripped broadcasters that gayety
has given way to the more serious
and reflective programs, and dance
music is conspicuous by its rarity
in the Good Friday schedules.
The United States Marine Band
Orchestra begins the Easter must
cal festival at $3.50 this afternoon
with q program of the music OF
Wagner, Handel and Cesar Franck
that is especially suited to the, day,
the concert starting with the pre-
lude to "Parsifal'' and concluding
with an arrangement OF Tame
hauser."
DETROIT WOMEN
SING FOR WRC
AT 6:3O the Detroit Madrigal Club
OF wonnen's voices will be heard
from WRC and WEAF. There will
be slight departure from the Good
Friday idea in the presentation q
the story Of the cherry blossom
as the Japanese tell it, at 1850. In
the Cities Service Orchestral pro-
gram at 8, the Anglo Persians' COM
cert at 8, the Lord Calvert presen-
tation at $50 and the Palmolive
hour at 10 seasonable music win
either completely fill or dominate
the offerings. At IL o'clock =
national Good Friday service will
be broadcast from WRC and a
large chain Of stations from New
York, with Rev. DR.. Harry Emer-
son Fosdick In charge. .
The WMAL program includes
special talk on the church in
modern civilization before the City
Club forum at noon by DIR. Homer
j. Councilman. This evening the
cantata by Petrie, Easter Victory,
will be presented by the choir Of
McKendree Church with Stanley
william Bell directing. An hour of
Good Friday music will be pre-
scented at BIS by Dorothy Sherman
Pierson, soprano;. Rose Maxwell
Dickey, violinist, and Louise Vinsoa
FrietaR pianfSfe. The weekly JOr-
dan program win present Nellie Ro-
nan. soprano, and Mary O'Donoghue,
mezzo-soprano, as guest artists, at
9:15. -
The CHIEF feature Of the WIZ
evening viii be the presentation OF
| Stainer's "Crucifixon" under the di.
rection of Cesare Sodero at 10
o'clock. Elsewhere one will find a
chorus Of 5000 voices singing Easter
music from WIS at o'clock and
the Atlantic City Festival Choir pre-
senting Mozart's twelfth mass from
WPG at 1890
The Washington times., 1928-04-06

Striking examples OF the most
primitive and the most highly cul-
tured forms Of music in existence IN
two programs that came to loud
speakers last evening demonstrated
without question that music is an
expression Of the human soul and
an outlet on human emotion tnat
needs but to find receptive hearts
to completely and unmista kably
achieve Its purpose. Between the
natural haf1nonies Of negro spirit
uals as sung BY the Afro American
Chorus from WMAI and the ex.
quisite and overpowering develop
nent Of the themes Of. Verdi's Re
QUEEN. " ais 1t came from VIZ and
KDKA, there was little to choose in
emotional effect.
The negro chorus. making its
debut as radio group. was not
quite as sure OF kself as the more
sophisticated singers and skilled
Observation-Disclosures, who interpreted
the Verdi master piece. The per-
Torrance Of the latter was more
finished and complete in that both
composer and artists deliberately
strove for effect-and got it as
surely and completely as any group
Of musicians we've heard. No finer
performance or greaSer music than
that OF the sReausem has been
heard in radio concerts.
The Afro-American Chorus, under
the direction Of Shirley McCanns,
was entirely unconscious Of creating
an emotional effect IN the listener.
IT was intent on giving vent to
its own emotion and sang only
that which was in its heart. Hence
It registered an even closer, finer
harmany than the carefully built
Requiem" because It had no schs 81
to define its limitations and create
inhibitions II. the composers minds.
There can be no comparison, OF
course. between the finished delivery
OF the Verdi masterpiece ma the
sometimes hesitating and not al
ways sure performance OF the negro
chorus. But the two presentations
coming so close together, gave
music lovers opportunities to hear
the alpha and omega Of music about
as strikingly demQnstrated as we've
ever heard them.
The Marine Band Interpretation
Of Wagner's marvellous Procession
OF the knights OF the Holy Grail
from sParsifaI. /" through WRC Ii
the early evening, was one 81 The
most impressive performanceS tllt
band has given and q fine example
Of the directing genius Of Capt
Taylor Branson, its leader. This
was rather marked because the
presentation OF Sibelius .Finlandia'
was far from being up to the bands
high standard
The new financial program Of
the Halsey-Stuart banking organi
zation probably got off to q good
start from WRC-the music was
well done. The address Of Repre-
sentative Louis McFadden of Penn
syIvania. on banking. was thor
ougEly understood. but the purpose
Of the program itself hardly defined
quite enough to permit passing any
sort Of judgment as to its ultimate
value to listeners.

The day is here! The set is here! Everybody
who waited for perfected, carefree radio is
finding his hopes realized in the e3tTa s1
coined in more than 100000 homes since

It's all in one cabinet-a truly electric set
