Ten Music
Graduates
Get Degrees
Thirtieth A n n u a |
Ceremony Held by
Washington College.

THE thirtieth annual commence
ment Of the Washington Col
lege Of Music took place Sat-
L urday evening. A class num-
bering 10 received official recognition
from Fanny Amstutz Roberts, pres
ident. Honorary degrees were con-
ferred upon Mrs. Martin A. Morrison
and Emanuel Zetlin for outstanding
achievement in the field Of musical
endeavor. The citation on Mr.. Zetlin
included reference to his training at
the Imperial Conservatory in Petro-
grad, Russia, where, upon graduation,
the jury, headed by Alexander Glaz-
ounoff and Leopold Auer, awarded
him the first prize In violin as well as
the highest honorary degree obtain
able in Russia. Following his gradua-
ton he spent several years studying
with Auer in Petrograd and with Carl
Flesch in Berlin, later being associated
with Mr.. Flesch at the Curtis Institute
in Philadelphia. In his acceptance
address Mr.. Zetlin gave scholarly con-
sideration to the latest ideas on musi-
cal education stressing the vital need
of the musical pedagogues understand
ing the problems which confront the
would-be interpretive artist, and with
careful guidance substituting a we'll
adjusted balance Of the musical facul-
ties for the too-frequently heard vague
and unconvincing performances. Mr..
Zetlin sails this week for Europe to
remain until early Fall. His travels
will take him to Germany and he will
probably spend considerable time with
Carl Flesch.
Mrs. Martin Morrison was cited for
her devotion to the young pianists of
Washington in the founding and di-
recting of the unique "Pianists' Club"
which is to open its fourteenth year in
the Fall. She gave a brief account of
some Of her experiences in fostering
these young talents, commenting upon
the wide recognition given club men,
bers in other musical centers. Fol-
lowing the awarding of the various
certificates, diplomas and degrees q
splendid program was played by Mary
beth Garvey and Beth King and a
group Of songs was sung by Lenna
Orr Gauss.
Anthony Chanaka was the recipient

rial Award. This is in the form of a
years scholarship. 1t was instituted

elor of music were Kathryn Hill Rawls
