Shortly before retiring from the ranks
of professional musicians in Washing
ton, Mrs Morrison. then Katharine
MacReynolds, was chosen by the local
Board Of Education to work out prac-
ticabe system for accrediting in our
high schools the serious music study of
students receiving competent outside in
structions from private teachers.
After the successful introduction of
this system, subsequent examinations of
these major music credit" students re-
vealed a small per cent of exceptionally
gifted and we'll trained talent from
different studios.
To combine such young artists into a
club for mutual improvement and in
spiration was the object which gave the
Washington Pianists' Club life and in
centive. Later, 1t aspired also to in
crease interest in higher musical educa-
ton in the public at large through an
annual series of public recitals.

7 ATTN AMERICAN music is very
- different from European mu-
sic. There are tempoS and ca
denceS that are entirely individ-
ual to the Latin music of this
continent that any one who is
schooled only in the classics Of
European composers finds diff
cult to understand and interpret.
In a way, it is the same problem
as that of classic versus jazz.
Rare, indeed, is the artist who
can give a typical formal concert
program we'll and who can play
Jazz as it should be played. The
reverse also is true.
This week a second guest con-
ductor Of bands and orcheStraS
comes to Washington from a
Latin American country to APP
pear with the service bands here
in interpretations of Latin music.
Last year the leading band direc-
tor OF Panama was so successful
that the Pan-American Union has
instituted such a gueSt-conduc-
torShip as an annual event for
Summer programs.
The conductor this year comes
from Cuba and is Maestro Con
Zalo Roig. leader of the Havana
Symphony Orchestra and the Mu-
s4fN Of
conduct the United States Army
Band in Cuban selections in the
fiftieth concert of Latin Amerl-
can music to be given at the Pan
American Union June 9. Senior
Roig also will conduct the United
States Marine and United States
Navy and Soldiers Home Bands
in programs during his stay in
Washington. He is scheduled to
arrive today for a week OF re-
hearsals preceding next weeks
concert.
It is significant, too, that Senior
Roig also is bringing with him
some typical Cuban instruments
to help in making the interpreta-
tions as nearly like those given in
Latin countries as possible and
also to familiarize United States
audiences with these different in

 Rk& ON HER OW MI
hy RICHARD STARE

SYNOPSIS: Jacqueline Grey's thirst for adventure is quenched the night she was introduced to night clubs in the company of Mrs. Porter Mason and Arthur Carew. The place is raided, but Jacqueline escapes through a window to intrude upon four men in an adjoining apartment building. It was most fortu- nate for Teddy Montrose was there, the young man she had seen earlier in a restaurant. Teddy has spent all his time watching her but never expect ed to see her again. He gall lantly offers her his protection and subdues the trio of card sharpers when they attack him. With 263 pounds of their money in his picket, Teddy and Jac- aueline flee in a taxi. Romance buds and they meet again the next day. The young man is the son of the shipping owner and at present persona non grata with pater because of expen- sive tastes. In Teddy's own words he is a "beggar."

THE "COCOANUTS" WILL
 BE HERE SUNDAY NIGHT

According to the reports which have come from Juneau regarding the talking picture 'The Cocoanuts," !" it is a WOW! It took four nights to show the. feature to the crowds in Juneau and is perhaps the most elaborate feature ever brought to Douglas.
 It is one of the unique big fea- lures from the legitimate stage now placed at the disposal of the films with the advent Of the talk ing picture. "The Cocoanuts" is the real thing-a musical comedy, singing, dancing, laughing the Broadway stage success, transfer red to the cinema.
 Laughs come so fast they're al ways stepping on one another's heels. "The Cocoanuts,' is a laugh show from beginning to end. Grou- cho, the talky Marxman, has the zippiest flow of lines any micro phone ever listened to. Harpo puts on dumb show in pantc2alme thav has never been equalled. Chico bulls some of the funniest stuff in the

"A mystery" cried Teddy. "So there is. Are you by chance the lady who lost the diamond neck lace? But of course, you can't be. You weren't wearing diamonds. You had pearls on."
 "The lady who lost the diamond necklacep" repeated Jacqueline. q am afraid l don't understand. Do you mean that somebody lost a diamond necklace at the night club?"
 Haven't you seen the papers this morning?"
 "No. To tell the truth haven't been thinking about papers today"
 All the morning she had been thinking about this very appoint ment which Teddy had made with her for the afternoon.
 "I'll show you,' said Teddy.
 He produced a morning paper from his pocket and handed it to Jacqueline. I'm glad you haven't seen this yet, because it's rather serious matter"
 Jacqueline then read the aston ishing story of the raid on Circo's night club, story which grew more astonishing as it went on
 The raid itself, from the news paper point of view, was secondary to the loss of a diamond necklace by a prominent society lady whose name was suppressed.
 The necklace was valued at lO,- 900 pounds. It had been snatched from the owners neck in the con- fusion which followed the turning out of the lights as the police rushed the doors.
 The police, it seemed, had plan ned the raid well, and were present in overwhelming strength. They were confident that they had closed every entrance and exit before the whistles went which were the sig nal for the rush.

But why need it go?a demanded Jacqueline.
 Don't know It's way money has when it is in my company. Money never stays on me some how. If it hadn't been for that pe- culiarity I shouldn't have lost the good opinion of the Old Top"
 What are you going to do with it?" queried Jacqueline.
 T was thinking of one more glorious bust-up to last about a week or perhaps we could stretch it to a fortnight
 Jacqueline passed over the i've" without comment, but he saw the flash in her eyes and recognized a kindred spirit. That in fact was just what she was doing with a not much larger sum, although Teddy did not know it. But change was coming over Jacqueline. She felt a sense of responsibility for this OVer-glOWn DOy.
 You ought to invest it in relia- ble government securities" she told him, remembering the advice of MT. Rustum, the solicitor.
 Teddy grinned. That's just what you would do, isn't it?" he chuckled and Jacqueline laughed.
 In the tale of his confessions Teddy did not say anything about the lady of the Alamo chorus, al- though this had had great deal to do with his downfall in the eyes of his father. Although a per fectly innocent filtration, his ac- auaintance with the lady of tht chorus had cost Teddy grea deal of money, which the "Old Top had had to pay.
 Looking into the brown eyes o Jacqueiine Grey. Teddy felt tha the episode of the chorus lady hat better remain untold. But h vowed inwardly that such episode should never be repeated.
 Thus, in two short meetings, ant without any admonitions whatever Jacqueline had achieved more Il the matter of Teddy's regeneration than all the Old Top had been abl to do in score of raving inter views rich in all manner Of threat!
 "So that" concluded Teddy, "i the story of my purple past. An now you know that I am a down at-the-heel adyenturer not fit t associate with you"
 Jacqueline smiled at him. don't think that at all" she tol him. @You are my knight in shin ing arnor who came very boldly t my rescue when my own foolish ness had brought me into seriou position. And about that foollsn ness of mine I want to consu you because there is a mystery al tached to it,'
