Works BY Moderns

DR.. Hans Kinder, director Of
the National Symphony Orchestra
which has just concluded the first
season Of summer concerts at the
Watergate, announces m any
worthwhile works by modern com
poSerS that have not been heard
here before are to be included in
the repertoire for the coming sea-
son.
IT believe it is the duty of a
major symphony orchestra doing
serious work to bring to it's audi
ences each year certain of the
classics" DR.. Kinder declared
"but it is no less its duty to pre-
pare for it's patrons those works,
old and new, which music lovers
have not yet heard.
Among these newer works, the
orchestra will play, Vaughan Will
liamS' London Symphony; a
suite by Bella Bartok; -Four
Polish Dances" by Tansman;
"Sinfonietta," by Wagenaar
Southern Nights Suite" by Born
Schein, and Symphony No. l." by
Shostakovich.
More than a dozen artists will
appear with the orchestra. John
Mccormack will be with u.s." said
DR.. Kinder, although he is wide
ly known as a singer of ballads.
Those of us who heard him at last
springs Library of Congress Festi
val know that he is too little
known as a superb exponent of
the great classics. I have asked
him to sing works by Mozart and
Handel"
Egon Petri, the Dutch pianist,
another of the soloistS, will be in
vited to play Busoni's Indian Fan,
taSie," a composition this artist
is particularly we'll suited to per-
form because the composer was
his teacher.
Bartlett and Robertson, duo
pianists, will probably appear in
the Bach concerto for two pianos
and orchestra which is not only a
major two-piano composition but
one which these artists interpret
with exceptional skill.

Legion Rookie Continues in Stick Competition
 Lead with .303

A few weeks ago, when the final batting statistics for the first half of the City Baseball League were released, young Erv Hagerup, Le- zion rookie, was found to be in the lead. Most fans, however, didn't take much note of that lead, re- garding Hagerup as a non-regular.
 Today, Hagerup continues to lead the individual batting race of the City League and, now, certainly is entitled to his spurs as a regular, for he has appeared in every Le- zion game in the second half. The young out-fielder boasts an aver age of 1893, representing 13 hits in B times at the plate.
 Not far behind him is Bob Boyd, ong-distance Legion slugger. The Doughboys' catcher has .378 for an average In the third spot is Stan Grummett, capable Moose outfield- CT, with 1862.

 CARDINALS 3-2
Housing Ball Game Called Saturday Night on Ac-
 count of Darkness

In rousing ball game last Sat- urday night which was called at the end of the fifth inning on account of darkness, the Federals, by a score of to 2, downed the Cardi- nals once more for this season. The Federals now have wins and losses, Cardinals wins and loss eS.
 The game which was scheduled for 6:30 o'clock did not actually get under way for about an hour later.
 Koshak, of the Federals, made a fine two-bag drive during the game and Fry Hagerup, of the Cardinals, made the only safe hit for his team.
 The batteries were Payne of the Tallapoosa, pitcher, Turner, of the Moose City League team, catcher Elmer Lindstrom, pitcher for the Cardinals and Al Bloomquist, catch CT.
 The game was umpired by sea- man gunner Wesch of the destroy CT Twiggs, for four innings, and his decisions were fair and square. Roy Thomas held the indicator dur ing the fifth inning.
 Both Cardinals and Federals are in hopes of game with the Talla- poosa just as soon as the Coast Guarders are induced to come out of retirement and take a crack at the National game.

Le zion Star Drops First Game, But Still Rates
 Top Spot

Although Ward McAlister of the Legion still can lay clear claim to the title of most effective pitcher in the City Baseball League, two others-Ken Junge, Legion, and Claude Erskine, Moose7-are staging merry fight for the hurlers with the least earned run average.
 McAlister met his first game de- feat since the last release of hurl- ing statistics, but he still com mands an impressive lead with seven victories in eight starts. Near est him in this comparison is Frs kline, With five wins in seven games.
 However, the earned run race-a good test of pitchers efficiency is battle between Junge and Frs kline. The big Legion moundsman has allowed .16 runs per inning, while Erskine has permitted 1T runs per inning Both figures ap- proach LA runs per nine-inning game, which, it may be conceded, is not so bad.
 Other per-inning earned run av- erages of seven other regular hurl- CTS are: Foster, L, '27; Turner, M, 30; McAlister, L, 39; Jensen. E, 43; J. Schmitz, M, 50; c. Mac Spadden, E, .55; Koski. E, 65.
