MUSIC AND MUSICIANS

OF the fine work that the clubs have
accomplished. There are four more
concerts planned for this season
one devoted to classic and the other
to the later day Viennese composers,
the third given by children under
IL years Of age and the last pro-
gram of advanced work, irrespective
of the age of the performer.
These concerts serve as an excel
lent means of encouragement to the
study of music. From each OF the
clubs one or two of the best pupils
are chosen to perform and in this
manner an added inspiration to
work is given the children. Occa-
Sions for ensemble playing are also
arranged for.
A short play about Mcdowell, ITO
q Wild Rose by Edith Lowell, was
presented in pantomime to which
the story was recited by Jane Cook
sey. The part of Mcdowell was
taken by Millard Reynolds, Mrs. Nc
Dowell, by Eva Smythe. and the
fairy, by Phyllis Carson.
Ten clubs of the District were
represented on the program which
was made up entirely of McDowellS
works. The pianists who performed
were Virginia Phelan, Harriet Wei
Ter, Carroll Mallonee, Caroline
Feller. Hazel Reck, Earl r. Parsons
and Phillip Wright, cellist. A. z.

Mcdowell Honored
BY Junior Music Clubs.

THE memory of Edward Mcdowell
- was honored at the first concert
given by the junior department of
the District Federation of Music
Clubs under the direction of Ivalee
Newell at Sears -Roebuck Art Gal
leries Saturday evening. The con-
cert was the children's celebration
Of his SEVENTEEN birthday anniver-
sary and the twenty fifth anniver-
sary Of the founding of the Mcdowell
Colony at Petersborough, N. H.
Mary Ware Goldman, first vice
president Of the junior clubs, gave
o synopsis Of McDowelrs life, en-
phasiZing the fact that he was the
first American composer to be taken
seriously by Europe. Later, through
his teaching at Columbia University,
New York City, he gave music a diff
ferent standing in America and
since his time it has been included
IN all university courses.
The young members had the
privilege Of hearing about the colony
In a very charming talk given by
Mary Howe who has found in this
secluded place the necessary quiet
for her own composing She de-
scrfbed 1t as q group of grown-up
play houses where artists, who are
really children who never grow up,
are turned loose to play as long as
they wish. She spoke Of Mrs. Nc
Dowell as the fairy godmother whose
sympathy with the needs Of creative
artists has made of this colony a
paradise where the painter. writer
or musician can work out his ideas
Jndisturbed.
Gertrude LYONS, president, spoke

and Mr.. Tittmann, "My Friend Is
Mine" was sung to the accompani-
msnt Of the first yiolinist, Frank
Gittelson, whose playing is always
most satisfying. Mr.. T1ttmann DID
some fine work in the recitative
Come Enter in With Me-" where
he rescued himself from an earlier
tendency to f1atneSs and sang with
considerable vibrancy.
The sweet tenor of DR.. George
Anderson gave a peculiarly ethereal
color to the solo, He Comes, He
Comes" which he sang with dignity
and which, unfortunately, was the
only opportunity which one had to
hear him. The junior choirs from
Calvary NJ. E. Church and Epworth
League Church South sang the
chorus of verse two with sureness
and confidence that showed they
knew exactly what they we're about.
Especially to be commended was the
very excellent diction of both the
children and the soloists which
made the printed words unnecessary.
The visiting artist who appeared
In the second part of the program
was Erna Pielke, contralto, who

ceptionally high note. She is evi-
IDENTIFY routined singer, SO 1t is to
be wondered at that she did not ex-
erciSe more care in the choice OF
points Of respiration and in her pro-
nunciation. The audience was much
taken with the richness of her
voice, however, and she was in
sistently recalled until she gave the
"Habanera" from Carmen" as an
encore.
The orchestra used the Bach
"Overture in D Major" for its first
number and made 1t the finest on
the program. The familiar air
played by the first violins was rem
dered with befitting sentiment, and
the 'Bourree" and the "Gigue" were
rhythmically distin ctive. 1t is
great pity that the orchestra is lin
tied as to rehearsals, for one realizes
that In order to play the several
numbers of a long program as well
as this one was played requires more
time to work out the details.
As yet the orchestra is not equal
to such compositions as the En-
trance of the Gods into Valhalla"
(Wagner) either as to quantity of
sound or freedom of execution. This
is not its fault, doing all it can
under the present circumstances. In
the prelude to the third act to
Tristan and Isolde" Henri Poalucci,
English horn, made the long pas
sages Interesting with an alive tone.

cluded the program In a spirited and

You know. Open the door"

Her companion seized Taylor and

BASS ANGLERS
CATCH FEW

Fresh water fishing pays its
dividends on moderate scale as
far as bass are concerned, but it
is exceedingly generous in perch.
Vic Gauzza, jr., made a trip to
the Dyke and nabbed two bass
and all the ring perch he could
carry. Saturday. Vic, Johnny
Bieling, George Hollis and Johnny
Harvey bagged IS crabs at Pope's
Creek. They saw a fisherman
bring in a bushel of hardheadS
and salt water catfish while
there.
Attorney Metcalf has been get
ting from five to ten bass daily
at Gunston Cove on shimmy
wrigglers. Earl Alcorn and Don
aid Morgan pulled 7 bass and 80
perch out of Four Mile Run with
artificial bait. Johnny Caldwell
caught two bass in the same run.
Bass fishermen have been hav-
ing trouble getting live bait,
lately, but mad Toms will be OBJ
tainable from Friday on.
w. R. Moffett caught II small
mouth bass at Shepherdstown,
w. Va, about SO miles from
Washington.
Gordon Stup, of GaitherSburg,
Md, is a happy angler. He caught

on record, at Great Falls. He
brought four others, averaging
two pounds. Stup used artificial

WHITNEY CHAMP
STILL FAVORED

CHICAGO, July 22.-Will Equi-
poise meet his Waterloo tomor-
row?
Can the son of Pennant meet
so severe a test as that which
faces him in the Arlington
Handicap?
One hundred and thirty-four
pounds will be slapped on him
in token of esteem, and that
weight must be toted mile and
a quarter.
But despite the fact that Equi-
poise will be conceding II pounds
to his nearest rival, White Glover
II, who will bear 1T pounds,
and as much as 20 pounds to so
good horse as Pittsburgher,
who will shoulder featherweight
of 105, the consensus is the
Whitney champion will not be
stopped.
Hailed as the greatest race
horse since Man O. War, Equi-
poise has repeatedly demonstrated
his ability to carry heavy bur
denS over any kind of a track.
Only about eight horses are
now expected to face the starter
and of these, Mrs. John Hay
Whitney's Stepenfetchit looms as
the likelieSt contender by reason
of weight advantage. He will
carry 108 pounds, 26 pounds less
than Equipoise, and the sensa-
tional Jockey Sylvio Coucci is
slated to ride him.

McGraw Gets Lowdown

series Rice joined the European
transformers, led by teams
called the Giants and White

ter, and, going up the gang
plank right ahead of McGraW'
Sam ordered a flunky to carry
his grips.
McGraw, right behind Sam
observed: Jaw, carry 'em your
self: YOU amt any cripple"
"Oh, amt -" interjected Rice
"well, Mr.. McGraw, 1 can show
you black and blue spots on

Right Field Walls

It was our pleasure to be
seated beside Sam Rice at the
Amity Club stag night at Con-
gressional Country Club Wed
nesday. and he's as interesting
a supper partner as one could
wish. During the evening Sam
regaled us with many stories
of the diamond. not the least
interesting having to do with
how he first became shy of
right field walls, balustrades
and abutmentS.
It was at the Polo Grounds
in New York where the 1924
world series trailed following
the opening games here, that
Sam came in contact WIN
his first right field obstacle.
The impact shook up Sam con-
siderably, and it was only
through sheer grit that he was
able to continue the game and
the series.
After this collision with the
wall. Sam, of course, had to go
to the bat, and he declares he
wasn't able to hold 1T mucn
higher than his waist. If the
Giant pitcher had given him
three strikes anything ike
shoulder high. Sam would nave
had to stand there, helpless. =,
AS it so happened they FED
him low ones, and Sam got hold
of one only every now and then.
