ANNIVERSARY
association, Organized a
Year Ago, Entertained
With address, Music.
BY ALICE EyERsMAN.

The final meeting of the Washing
ton Teachers Association took place
Monday evening at the Arts Club, the
event bringing large-sized audience.
The meeting marked the first anni-
versary OF the founding OF the aSso-
citation. Alice Burbage Hesselbach,
president, made an opening address
in which she told OF the growth Of
the organization from the 80 members
signed up at the inaugural meeting
to ESQ during the year and OF the
donations to the National symphony
Orchestra and the new music division
of the Public Library and the vari-
Gus meetings for promotion Of good
fellowship among teachers, as the
accomplishment Of the ends for which
the association was organized.
Mrs. Hesselbach then introduced the
guest speaker, DR.. Edward Ellsworth
Hipsher, associate editor of the Etude
and president Of the Philadelphia
Music Teachers Association. DR..
HipSher spoke in complimentary terms
of the accomplishment Of the Wash
inston association in the short time
Of its existence.
A delightful program followed, given
by Flora McGill Keefer. Myron Whit
ney, Felian Garzia, Henry Gregor,
Grace Powell, La Sale Spier and
Maurice Jarvis. Mrs. Keefer and Mr.
Whitney opened the program with two
duets by Schumann, die Schwalben"
and $50 Wahr die Some Scheinet," 4"
with Dorothy Radde Emery at the
piano.
Three compositions by Henry Greg
or. Prelude In Dorian Mode" 'Ori-
entale" and Satire on Stravinsky,"
were played by Grace Powell. vlolinist,
with Mr.. Gregor at the piano. The
Satire on StravinSky," In imitation OF
that composers. "Divertimento" in
Spired by the muse of Tschaikowsky
was q clever and amusing number
which caught the fancy Of the audi
ence. A "Neopolitan Song" Bach's
"Bist du bel mir" and Brahms Yer
geblicheS Staendchen" were excel
lently interpreted by Mr.. Whitney,
villa Semple accompanying. while
Mrs. Keefer gave the aria, "Ah, Mon
Fills" from Meyerbeer'S opera, lie
Prophete" with excellent tone and fine
feeling.
DebuSsey's lie Cathedrale EnglOuti"
and "Jardin ans Ia Pluie" were rarely
beautiful offerings of Felian Garzia
and the program concluded with q
composition by La Sale Spier. THE
Figurehead." the poem being recited
to music by Maurice Jarvis. This salt
sea yarn, by John BcGall, is a divert
ing poem, the humor of which Mr..
Spier has cleverly inscribed in mis-
musical accompaniment. A buffet
supper was served.

BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

Beautiful surroundings do much to
put one in the mood to penetrate into
the depths OF music and no lovelier
artistic atmosphere can be found than
that provided by the concert staged
in the esplanade Of the Pan American
Union. Last evening the first Of the
Summer concerts was given by the
U. s. Army Band, Lieut.. Thomas F.
Darcy conducting, with Luis Alvarez,
Mexican tenor as featured Soloist.
The Army Band has never played
as well as 1t did last evening, COM
bining colorful tone with an under
standing of means of Interpretation.
The result held the attention through
out each number with anticipation of
the revelations of the succeeding
phrase. Three numbers stood out not
only for the Interpretation given them,
but by reason of their originality and
descriptive power. THE Death of the
Inca" by the Peruvian composer,
Carlos Valderama, is an impressive
work of tragic import rarely heard In
the gracious Latin American music.
s. Mena OF Ecuador has written much
Of value into his pasillo, "Cuando
Sera," arranged for this first rendition
by Rudolph Eckman. The third num-
ber and the last of the program was
the grandoise scenes from Carlos
Gomez's famous opera, N Guarani,
which has stamped him not only the
greatest composer of Brazil, but Of
Latin America also.
An interesting overture, "Exotica, ="
by Betoncourt of Venezuela, showed a
new rhythmic idea which was a well
come departure from the exactness Of
the ordinary Spanish form. "Saludo
a Mexico" by ]. Garcia, the march
"Riosinho" by A. Aguirre Of Bolivia,
the fantasia, "Capricho Colombiano, I"
by Emilio Murillo, and the waltz,
"Resos y pesos" by the Mexican, A.
Martinez, completed the band num-
berS.
One could understand the popu-
larity Of Mr.. Alvarez as a radio singer
in Mexico after his singing of I'll
mida," by his compatriot Jose Bri-
seno; Sandovals 'Eres tu," Garders
"Cuesta Abajo," Rodrigo's "Princesa," !"
with George Wilson at the piano, and
Barcelata's Maria Elena" and Menen-
dez's "Ojos Verdes" with band accom-
paniment. Mr.. Alvarezs voice has an
appealing quality and he sings with
delicate indications Of sentiment that

It was Paramount's last day there
yesterday 1t was literally saying
Annapolis, farewell" That's why
they were burying Sir Guy. Orig
inally they had intended 10 make

word had come that that the Warner
Bros. were planning to bury their
dead there, too-So they had to

1T was a weird and fanciful sight
seeing the gnarled slopes of the GEM

hospital, playing host to motion pic

In bright shirts and muffiers, to plain
sailors and 'middies," to flood lights
and trucks, and scores Of young girls
who browsed in and about the thick
crowd trying to find out the difference
between the actors and the sailors.
Mr. Cromwell and Mr.. Brown were
taking it all quite calmly. But they
admitted that they would be very,
very happy indeed when the midnight
train from Baltimore began to pilot
them back to the Coast. Making a
picture on location in Annapolis had
been no cinch.

almost stole the show from Claudette
Colbert in Imitation of Life" Miss
Beavers arrival was the signal for 8
brief intermission. If she had been
Mary Pickford she couldn't have had
q more enthusiastic greeting. And
she is working for Paramount, at
that!
THE most vital part Of this motion
picture renaissance in Annapolis
is the interest that outsiders are
showing in it. Not only young girls
but their mothers are running down
by the truckload to see If by hook
or by crook they can't get into the
picture.
AS Dick Powell was coming out Of
the Carvel Hall dining room yeSter-
day, a breathless young lady with
large black eyes and a devastating
smile ran up to him. Without so
much as waiting for an introduction
she said: please, Mr. Powell will
you get me into your picture?" And
when Mr.. Powell explained that it
wasn't ms picture Dut warner BIOS,
and that he was merely hired help,
the girl went right on with: But,
Mr. Powell. know that if you want
me in your picture you can get me
In your picture"
When Powell said again that he
had nothing to do with it and that
she must see the casting director,
she was still not satisfied, and looked
pleadingly back towards a sofa where
the eagle eye Of what must have been
her parent egged her on with her
whole soul. Eventually, the young
lady had to believe what Powell was
telling her. And she skunk off-dis-
pirited and tired-and a moment
later seemed to be getting a terrible
bawling out from a parent who had
no doubt trumped up the whole affair.

Two duets for cornets were played
by Ralph Ostron and Charles Barnes,
and two violin soil were excellently
interpreted by Thomas Herbert, Gil

MED at the piano by Raymond Meyer
and Ponce's 'Estrellita" with vibra-
phone and celeste accompaniment, the
latter played by Joseph Young. A
large and distinguished audience
warmly greeted the performance of
the entire program.

There is one hitch about this pic

may be unless he can persuade them

profits.
Pat O'Brien gave a party the other
day. Present were some members Of
the Lambs Club, including Lew

mented the "ex-chorus boys" Of Holly

This would certainly bring about a
reduction IN sales. That IN turn
would mean smaller volume OF en-

The actual average hourly wage
rate paid during the year ended
March 81, 1895. was 1871 cents. In

hours with an absolute maximum
OF Is hours for any one week. But
Mr. Macualey pointed out, any
number OF uncomfortable causes
including the impossibility Of fully
regulating the flow Of materials
from parts suppliers, makes It inn
possible for the industry to APP
proach the allowable maximum
working time.
He maintained that II the work
ers, are to regain the weekly wage
of 1929, they must be allowed to
work more hours per year. Fur
ther limitation OF hours will only
reduce weekly pay. and greater
fiexibility than now obtains is
needed.
Addressing himself to the pro-
posal of a 40-hour limit which
could be exceeded by paying time
and one-half for overtime, Mr.
Macauley said:
1.-THE great mass OF these auto
mobile manufacturers could not
avail themselves of the permission
to employ their men for longer
hours at the higher rate of pay,
for the simple reason that their
financial condition does not permit
1t. To enable them to pay overtime.

However, Alvan Macauley, pres
ident Of the association, pointed
out In the letter that, because Of
the marked shortening of working
hours required by the industry's
code, It has not been possible to
pay weekly wages and annual
wages approaching those OF 1929.
