BY the Associated Press.
SHREVEPORT, La, November TO-
Woman strike sympathizers beat 10
connective crew on the Louisiana &
Arkansas Railroad at Minden, La,
while officials investigated fatal col
lision of two freight trains further up
the line.
The wreck, which killed four men
early yesterday, was not blamed on
strikers.
Sheriff o. H. Haynes of Webster
Parish reported about score of men
and women clambered aboard an en-
gine at the south end of the Minden
yards last night and severely beat En-
gineer H. e. Cole and Fireman c. H.

1T was dark and everything was
done before we arrived" the sheriff

L. & A. officials said one of the trains
overran stop order.
Three other trainmen have died in
train wrecks and an ambuShing since
transportation workers went on strike
September 19 for higher wages and
better working conditions. Railroad
officials attributed the sporadic out
bursts to "agitators."
Several bridges have been burned
and other lesser violence reported.
Women Active in Strike.
Women have been especially active
In violent support of the strike. Their
raids on trains included one at Jones'
vile, La, when they held up a freight
train for several hours while attempt
ing to force the resignation of the
train crew. A railroad official who
objected was stripped and chased
away.
Later a passenger train was besieged

and women.

with him at Baton Rouge this week
in an effort to settle the controversy.

Miss Stein.
Irving Lean
Give Recital
young Pianist and
,Violinist Praised
By Reviewer.
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

A N AMBITIOUS program was
~ given last evening by Irving
~ Lean, violinist, and Thelma
\ Stein, pianist, at Wardman
Park Theater, in which the young mu-
sicians showed maturity of develop
ment and scholarly preparation. Mr..
Lean had his first instruction in this
city, coming at present from study in
New York, and Miss Stein from con-
cert appearances throughout the East.
In the numbers which were played
there was no concession to the enter
tanning variety, but rather a serious
ness and earnestness of purpose to be
highly commended. They bore the
evidence of thorough study and of
assimilation to the extent that both
musicians had something personal to
put into their interpretations. Many
things they will undoubtedly want to
do differently when their experience
has widened and their concept broad
ened. But last nights recital showed
above all an excellent foundation on
which to build greater success.
Miss Stein, whose solo numbers in
cluded Beethoven's "32 Variations in
C Minor" Chopin's "Nocturne In F
Sharp Major" and "Fantasie I'm
promptu" and Lecuona's "Malaguena,"
is pianist with a sensitive touch, solid
technique and delicate feeling. There
was a mellowness in her playing that
made up for some exaggerations in
phrasing and her good taste was gen.
orally predominant. For such an ex-
cellent soloist, she was also a sympa-
thetic accompanist, able to subdue her
personality to the right degree, yet
giving Mr.. Lean all the assistance pos
sible in interpreting.
For his violinistic equipment, Mr..
Lean has a large tone, strong and
agile fingers and sturdy bow arm.
The major work programmed for him,
Wieniawski's Concerto No. 2 in D
Minor" was easily within his powers,
and barring leaning toward undue
haste and not a sufficient undermining
OF the graceful character of the work,
a splendid medium to exhibit his mu-
sical standard. 1t is unfortunate, how
ever, that Mr.. Lean is not more care
full with his intonation. A lapse due
to nervousness Is understandable, but
Mr.. Leans fault seems more a lack of
watchfulness through the hours of
practice. When this defect Is rem
edied, the natural beauty Of his tone,
which last evening was sometimes
roughened, will prevail. In the cadenza
Of Kreisler's 'Praeludium and Allegro"
he was again inclined to too much
rapidity, but the opening measures
were given with dignity and virility.
Kreisler's "Paraphrase on Paderewskis
Minuet" was Splendidly played, as
was also the brilliant Allegro" by
Eiocco.
The young artists had q friendly
and welcoming audience, eager for
many encores. Such promising talent
is q pleasure to hear and can be de-
veloped to a point where no criticism
will be necessary. The success of last
nights concert should presage many
more of the same kind.
