MARIAN ANDERSON

Now it is Golfers the national
weekly magazine, that features
Marian Anderson, the great con-
cert artist, in an article by Marcia
Davenport. Describing Miss Ander-
son, Miss Davenport says she is
a contralto with a range of three
full octaves, and has what might
be called a pair of voices. She
moves, we + told, from one to
the other not only with effortless
ease but in doing so holds her en-
tire range firm in remarkable tech
nical control.
THIS beautiful article about Miss
Anderson is quite appropriate. and
while one exults in the fairness
which made is possible, one is
temped to despair for the hundreds
Of others of Miss Anderson's group
who have talent, ability and who
have achieved and are achieving
but who are unwept and unsung.
When one watches the motion pic
lures and sees what a flimsy ex-
cuse Is often used to catapult an
unknown (white) to fame and re-
nown, not to mention fortune, and
then sees the utter loss of good
talent and ability in the Negro
group, purely because the artists
happen to be of another color, the
zone in a million" chance that is
given, as in the case Of Miss An
derson, is absolutely not enough
We are proud of Miss Anderson,
and we 7 proud of Golfers ges-
ture, but we insist that it is the
lack Of recognition of genuine
talent in the Negro groud that
may yet make America sorry.
