sweep all before her, playing not
with a light, finicky touch, but with
force and an overtone of glamour
that struck wonder and amazement
into her listeners. When it was all

performance.
Afterward, even such a veteran
composition as the "Eroica" SYM

images of Napoleon which should
have been conjured up were replaced
by the chords of Miss Hess still
lingering in the minds eye. Although
the "Eroica" was done more than
justice to by DR.. Koussevitzky and

ROME, December 3.-The Jesuit Or

the Gesu, this morning solemnly COM
memorated one of its most famous
members, st. Francis Xavier, mission

Exposed to the view of the black clad
priests and seminary students and to a

st. Francis Xavier was one of the
earliest companions of st. Ignatius of

whom he met while riotous student in

prevailed upon him to give up his ways

and four others they constituted the

ever its leader puts his mind and
hand to seems to come forth several
per cent better than what one had
expected.
And so last night when DR..
Koussevitzky raised his hands and
the overture to Goetheis "Egmont"
began its none too lengthy course
there was evident in the music every
thing that had been heard time and
time again-plus that certain some
thing that has placed the Boston
Orchestra in the front row of
symphonic societies.
Koussevitzky commanded his men,
rather than cajoled or wheedled
them. He sang with them-as those
who are far enough on one side and
near enough to see what is going on
must know. He seemed to be telling
each instrument just what its busi-
ness was and why, and he injected
the breath, life and power into the
Beethoven compositions that might
have surprised even the composer
himself.

Fisk Jubilee Singers
In Splendid Recital.
A NY persons who prior to the ap-

Singers last night had any doubts
as to their excellence must be con-
vinced by now. This sextet of Negro
artists appearing at Howard Uni
versity as part of the music -lec-

versity, were given an ovation by an
audience that filled the Andrew
Rankin Memorial Hall to over
flowing.
Pre-eminent in the field of en-

the original exponents of Negro
SpiritualS, this group, composed of
two women and four men, Anna
Goodwin, Carl Barbour, Luther King,
Jerome Wright, Ludie Collins and
Mrs. James Myers, demonstrated
their art to a point near perfection.
Each is gifted singer. Frock- k-coat-
ed though they may be, they are
the bewildered and enslaved chill
dren of the song. When they sing
this music of the plantations one
feels the plaintive call of the pious
African, cropping toward the God of
another race.

but not until Roesch and Harrell rallied
after being down at the eighth hole to

Barnett started 8, 8, 4, 4, 4, and
seemed to be on the way to an out

shot at the tricky sixth hole carried
over the green and went far down in the
fourth fairway and the score was ruined,
Instead OF getting around in 10 or
better he took 70, all Of which goes to

Despite that Eastern lost its basket
BAH opener to Georgetown University
freshmen Saturday by q 32-to-18 count
followers of the Light Blue are not at
all discouraged. Eastern offered the
Hoya yearlings a much sitter argument
than did Central the night before
though the scholastics from Columbia
Heights were beaten by only q few
points more. The Georgetown Cubs
trimmed Central, 81 to 1S.
Against Eastern the Hoya yearlings
were playing their second game and
many Of the faults which they showed
against Central were not manifest
against the boys from Capitol Hill. Com
sidering this and the fact that Eastern
was opening its schedule, the showing
OF the latter was not at all bad.
-Four Of the six players Coach Guyon
used were prominent members Of last
seasons squad. Lieb, Kane, Noonan
and Shirley were the vets who saw ac-
ton. Courtney and Waters, other play
ers employed by the Light Blue, have
not had much experience. The former,
however, showed well, but the latter ap-
parently has much. to learn.
All in all, it appears that Eastern
