Mr.. Szigeti is a careful techni-
clan and his tone at all times was
nearly magnificent. This was
especially so in the passages that
did not require the piano.
1t was in the Beethoven sonata
that Mr.. Szigeti revealed the mar
velous high tones for which he is
famous and the greatest ovation
Of the concert.
His program was unusual in
several respects. First, he placed
all emphasis upon Mozart and
Beethoven, two standard classics
which demand high artistry for
best results.
Then in the third and fourth
parts of his program he played
several numbers as a first per-
Torrance. These first perform
ances included LA PiSanella," by
Pizzetti-Corti; "Cparice in B.
Minor" by Paganini, and "Rhap-
sody," by List Hubay, which
was written originally for Rem
enyi in 1866, and orchestrated by
Hubay in 1881, and dedicated to
MI. Szigeti.
This violjnist is a good program
builder, because he brings not
only the old, but the new.
Nikita de Magaloff was at the
pano and he deserved to share all
the applause with the violinist.
(By Walter D. Hickman).

RECORD STEAM
 CLOUDS APPEAR
Disturbance Recently in California Source of
 Investigation

w a h nj gton (UP)-Steam clouds reported to be the largest to appear in recent years, have been sighted over Lassen Peak Crater in Lassen Volcanic National Park, Cal, according to word re- ceived by Arno B. Cammerer, di- rector of the National Park Ser vice.
 superintendent, the appearance of unusual activity from the volcano may be the aftermath of a storm. It is believed the high humidity, followed by cold temperatures rap idly condensing the amount of steam normally escaping from tho crater may be responsible for the disturbance.
 However, the parks ranger na- turalists are conducting further studies to determine whether the clouds are forerunners of an erup- tion, or whether they have been caused by storm.
 Lassen Peak stands at the sou- thern end of the Cascade Moun- tains where they join the Sierfa Nevada. It is classed between a semi-active and active volcano.
 In 1914, a series of eruptions occurred which. reached their height of activity in 1915. Since then, Lassen has remained com paratively quiet, although many hot springs and other minor phe@ nomena are constant reminders of its internal heat.

 Vaguely, he realized the snow- white tablecloth gleaming with sill yer and glass. Now they were hav- ing supper and what supper! Not mess of something highly spiced from the delicatessen washed down with wood alcohol cocktails, but a real Vermont supper, as she had promised in her note. Such creamed chicken and Boston brown bread and pork and beans he hadn't tasted in years! And when dessert time came, she brought in an apple pie-a hot applie pie, with flaky golden brown crust and spicy apples in- side and rich, coldy ivory-white cream. Well, he was beyond surprise now and beyond fear This was Miracle. It couldn't be anything else. Somehow or other when he was boy of 15, he had foreseen this evening in a dream he had foreseen the house and the pie and Josie...
 He didn't tell her. He was afraid to speak of The Miracle even to her. Something might | happen to break the spell. There might even be rational explana- tion. He didn't want a rational explanation. There had been so little romance in his life until And then she might not believe him. She might even laugh at him. She was so practical and | matter of fact. She didn't seem a bit like the sort of person who | believes in miracles.
 She was talking now about the successful dress shop, which had made it possible for her to buy and do over this quaint, antique house.
 | Isn't it wonderful for an old woman like me to be able to make real money and have her fling be- fore she dies? Oh, things are lot easier for women now than they were in mothers day-no one has ever called me forward or un- sexed!"
 So Josie had known what his mother and the other women had thought of her mother. Poor little Josie!

 1.-The deadline isn't as terrible as it sounds" he said to his own sur prise. Look at me. I'm 63 and hale and happy as cricket!' "You don't look 53." she said.
 ''To me you don't look one day
 older than you did your last day at school"
 He stayed a long while that first evening, just basking in the won- der of his own private Miracle, and the honey atmosphere of the low ceilinged sitting room. And he came back again and again. At the office now when he went over
 his books all his thought were of
 Josie and the little house on Bar row St.
 Somehow he no longer felt that life had passed him by. He no
 longer minded being 53. Indeed, he thought it was a rather good age-the prime of life, a time of mellowness and reflective enjoy ment, without any of the doubts and terrors and, worst of all, the torturing hopes of youth And for the first time in his life he added up : 8 column of figures
 wrongly. The boss was astounded
 'T don't know what's come over you, Wilkens.. At last came that evening when
 she was talking about her dress
 shop again and he said suddenly;

 "No, I'm not jealous. But fl
