was not so tuneful as the pre-
viouS work. The final movement,
VII ct gai, was all that the
name implies with q catchy
theme of fast passages running
through it.
The Roth String Quartet has
shown to best advantage in this
series in the concluding Haydn
quartet. Possibly this is due to
the fact that the players are
more in sympathy and are more
familiar with these standard
works. Feri Roth and Jeno Ana
tai, first and second violiniStS,
possess a quality Of tone and
technique together with the feel
for ensemble work that has given
q notable series Of chamber
music concerts. Fereno Molnar,
the violiSt, uses an instrument
that seems slightly smaller than
most violas with the result that
its tones are not so somber as
one usually hears from the in
Strument.
The violoncellist, JanoS ScholZ,
likewise uses an instrument that
does not give such heavy tones as
are usually expected from the in
strument. The combination Of this
tonal color in the two lower In
struments makes for a unity Of
tonal quality that sets this quartet
apart from others.
It has been frequently limited
that the tuneSmithS OF Tin Pan
Alley were seldom overburdened
with a knowledge Of music. This
idea is given credence in looking
at a picture of Irving Berlin seated
at his piano which was recently
released by publicity agents. A
metal plate is distinctly shown
above the keyboard with the
names Of the notes marked on 1t,
similar to the charts sometimes
used for beginner piano students.
Between each letter the sign for
the sharp is placed over the black
keys. We wonder how Irving
would be able 70 figure out the
flats.
The drum major Of the United
States Marine Band wants 1t
understood that the members OF
the Marine Band did not walk out
on the Women's Patriotic Confer
ence on National DefenSe Of their
own volition, as intimated in a
press story. Any service organiza-
ton acts entirely upon orders
from higher up.
The new month will bring to
Washington several soloiStS in full

recent film and concert appear.

The Detroit tribune. (Detroit, Mich.) 1935-1966, 1936-08-15
(By MARION BURTON)

After twelve years of civic and
political activities in Detroit, the
Wolverine Republican Club, old
est Negro political organization
and first precinct organization in
Wayne County, has changed it's
name to the Douglass Civic Club
This change of name was voted
at a meeting last Friday, because
the notorious Black Legion had
seen fit to designate one of it's or
ganization by similar name
the Wolverine Republican League.
OF course, everybody knows that no
Negro, Jew, or Catholic could be
a member of the Black Legion; but
the members of the former VOL
VERNE Republican Club, were so
disguised at the Black Legion, that
they did not want a name similar
to anything in this lawless insti-
tuition. The resent and hate even

Club, now the Douglass Civic Club,

in PROTEST OF BLACK LEGION

Known AS Douglass Civic Club

nnity, justly belonging to Negroes;
and offers a change in name, in
bitter protest to everything the
Black Legion stands for. The
members are determined not to
stop with the mere change of name
of the organization, but also to
do all in their power to help crush
the Black Legion.
Plans are being considered, to
invite every members of the race
to join in mammoth protest,
such as Michigan has never seen
staged by Negroes.
The Douglass Civic Club will
continue at its present headuuar-
ters, 1853 East Warren avenue. and
will continue to take an active
part in all civic affairs for the adj
vancement Of Negroes In Detroit.
The president, Aaron c. Toodle,
states that he believes all true
Americans, white and black, will
unite to drive out of existence the
prejudiced, lawless group compos-
ing the Black Legion; and that he
is willing and ready to fight in
every way to help destroy this
great destroyer.
