IN DELAWARE
Three Prize Winners Sc
lected From This State
In Each Of Two Age
Groups.

The identities of this States six
most beautiful babies were made
public yesterday by l.. NJ. Mckay,
manager of the Dover retail store of
Sears, ROebuck & Co., in the first
official announcement of the six
State prize winners in the nation
wide contest of Sears and "A Cen
tury of Progress" to find "Ameri-
cas- Most Beautiful Baby"
Manager L. NJ. Mckay said that
one of these six Delaware babies
was being voted on for the nation
al award of $4,000 at "A Century

the winning baby from each other
state and from the territories. In
the voting at the Worlds Fair, the
Identities of the babies are being
kept secret, the ballots being cast
by Fair visitors for numbers rather
than for names.
Three prize winners were select
ed from this State in each of two
age groups: up to two years and
from two years to five years. The
six babies who won were:

Kay. for that would be inviting an
argument in which no mere man
could afford to indulge.
"All can say is that the win

FRAUENHEIM, PIANIST,
HEARD AT ARTS CLUB
Gives Program in Which Roman
ticists Predominate, and Does
Not Show Sweeping Power.
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.


Norman Frauenheim, pianist, gave
his first recital of the season last
evening at the Arts Club, playing
a program in which the romanticists
predominated. The subdued lights,
with a touch of color on the stage,
may have had something to do with
the uniform mood in which Mr..
Frauenheim felt his interpretations,
as he confined himself almost exclu-
sively to a rather dreamy poetical
approach that showed only one side
of his talent
Mr.. Frauenheim is a pianist who
can command wide range of tenn
permanent, not the least of which is
a dynamic power of sweeping quality.
He has been known to use this with
telling effect in previous recitals. but
last evening saw him set in a more
lyric vein. There were moments,
however, when this mood could be
counted a decided gain, such as in
the Funeral March" movement of
the Chopin Sonata in B Flat Minor"
and the Schumann "Phantasie Op.
IT," in both of which he caught a
fine poetic vision and a corresponding
elasticity of tonal warmth. Although
programmed, Mr. Frauenheim omit
ted the presto" finale of the sonata
He was at his best in the first group
which scheduled the Bach-LisZt
Prelude "Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen.
Zagen," the Mozart Theme and
Variations in F Major" and the three
divisions, Ruins 'Triumphal Arch"
and Grown of Stars" of the Schu-
mann "Phantasie. In these he gave
the nearest approach of the evening
to a complete display of his pianistic
resources, matching thoughtful
pianiSsimo with a rounded volume of
sound and always with clear technical
fuency Mr.. Frauenheim has a me-
chanical equipment that is patterned
after the great virtuosi and possesses
