1921.

Awards for Composers
A total of $4,000 in awards will
be made to the five American
composers producing the best
original orchestral works by
Thursday, December 81, 1881, un.
der arrangements just completed
by the National Broadcasting
Company and Deems Taylor, con-
temporary composer.
In announcing details of this
musical award, Deems Taylor ex.
planned that 1T constitutes to
my mind, the composers idea of
what composer award really
should be-"
Anybody who writes a serious
piece Of music today, does so as
a luxury. But the $4,000 to be
distributed among the five win
ming American composers by N.
BIC. constitutes something ad.
vantageously tangible. 1t is ma
terial recognition of the merit Of
musical accomplishment"
When Deems Taylor submitted
the idea of the award several
months ago it was formally ap-
proved by N.B.C. officials.
"The Trial of John Peter
zenger" will be presented as the
dramatic highlight of the Ma
tional Broadcasting Company
schedule for tonight.
This sketch, to be heard over
an N.B.C.-WEAF network, will re-
call the celebrated colonial legal
battle centering around the dar-
ing little New York publisher
who defied the English governor.
The victory of the press on that
occasion established the law of
libel which has protected Amer
ican newspapers from official
wrath ever since.
