vIOLONCELLO AND PIANO RECITAL

Two young musicians, members Of
Washingtons younger music circles, pre-
sented delightful morning of violon-
cello and piano music before the mem
bers of the Friday Morning Music Club
Yesterday. The young performers are
John Alden Finckel, cellist who studied
under Hans Kinder. and whose bow
has the rounded, singing warmth of real
artistry, and Mrs. Finckel, very young
pianist. whose training was under the
late Oliver Denton. Mrs. FinckelS
musicianship is assured. clever and her
fingers fly over the keyboard with amaz-
ing flexibility. She was at her best in
the Dohnanyi "Capriccio, Opus g." Her
Chopin left something to be desired. for
there was not the soft allurement in
her tone nor the poetic poise of the
Chopin artist. At times her tone was
too precise-not hard perhaps, but de-
cisive and crystalline.
The Mendelssohn Sonata" was given
with nicely blended Interpretation by
both musicians. A less familiar sonata
by Jean Hure showed modern tendencies
tastefully restrained SO that the work
found ready appreciation from gener-
ally conservative audience. The short
Saint-Saens Concerto in A Minor"
which closed the program, provided Mr..
Finckel with opportunity that he was
quick to fill with pleasant Interpretation.

EARLY VOTE SEEN
ON PEACE TREATY
Fight OF Senate "Keserva.
tionistS" Coming to If
Head Today. Il
BY the Associated Press.

With promises against a filibuster On
record, Senate leaders believe the battle
for an Interpretation Of the Kellogg
anti-war treaty will come to a head
shortly and final vote will follow i'm.
mediately. sN
No doubt is held by friend or foe Of
the treaty but that it will be ratified
when the Senate votes. The only guess
ton is whether some construction shall
be placed upon the treaty and in what
manner this shall be done.
Proponents say no construction Is
necessary and that none can be voted.
Chairman Borah of the foreign rela-
lions committee, in charge of the treaty,
was ready today to renew his proposal
for a limitation upon debate. His sug.
gestion yesterday to limit debate after
pm. today was defeated by the OBJ
lection of Senator Moses, Republican,
New Hampshire. the author Of the inter;
pretatiVe resolution.
Encouraged by the appeal of Senator
Reed, Democrat, of Missouri. for an in
terpretative declaration, the "reServa-
tionists" took heart yesterday. The vet-
eran Missourian held the attention of 8

that it amounted to trojan horse"

this country by the League of Nations.
The direct appeal also OF Senator
Reed to Secretary Kellogg to remember
that he sis not the Waterman" OF the
country and to sanction some form OF
interpretative declaration on the pact,
even if only in the form of report by
the foreign relations committee. is hoped
by the group seeking an Interpretation
to have some effect.

terpretative dancing" in which the
spirit or mood of music Is transferred
to the realm of dancing. There Is so
much more than the rhythm of move

description of her work in attempting
to define 1t. She calls 1t Compositions
in Dance Form" and the nearest ap-
proach to description Is that 1t IS a
combination of pantomime and dance.

One thing in which Miss Enters

background Of movement, disSociable
from her own gestures. The feeling OF
this movement around her. evoked by
her own suggestion Of its presence
amounted at times almost to conviction
that others were present. Her work Is
subtle and highly sensitive thing.
The costumes and settings were effec-

in themselves triumph of beauty. For
these things, too, Miss Enters was re-
sponsible, and for the tone Of delicacy
and grace which marked the preSenta-
