Russian Trio Opens
Howard u. Series
BY ALICE EVERsMAN.

The Howard University concert
series opened its seventh season last
evening with a program given by
the Russian Trio, Nina Mesirow-
Minchin, pianist; Herman Felber,
violinist, and Ennio Bolognini, cell
list. This excellent ensemble group
made a decided impression at its
appearance on the same course last
season and confirmed 1t further by
its playing last evening.
Miss Mesirow- -Minchin is a bril-
liant pianist, especially pliable in
dynamics and past mistress in style
and technical f1uency. The two
string instrumentalists have blend
ing tones, Mr.. Bolognini's being the
richer in qdality and with greater
degree Of expressiveness. Mr.. Fel-
bers tone is a lyric one and he is
never tempted to spoil it with too
dramatic style. All three are sin-
cere artists and their ensemble is
the agreement Of temperament as
well as musicianship.
Yesterdays program contained the
Beethoven Trio No. 3, Op. l, in c
Minor" the Brahms Trio No. 4, Op
101":: these sterner works Offset by
the charming Trio in D Minor, Op
80" Of Arensky. It was in this latter
number that the greatest freedom
and unity of the group was to be
! found, their performance being
marked with an elan particularly
fitting to Arensky's style. This COM
poser, who had real gift for melody
as well as counter-rhythms, has
made it the basis of this work, and
in all it's movements the sheen of
brightness is never absent. Per-
haps because of his cellist father,
he has given many beautiful mo-
ments to this instrument, of which
Mr.. Bolognini took full advantage
for displaying his beautiful tone and
suave technique.
The trios of Beethoven's first opus
were his initial bid for fame as q
composer and are dedicated to
Prince Lichnowsky, at whose house
they were first performed. The

LOS GATOS, Cal, Aug 9.-John Steinbeck, author of that best-sell- ing novel, "The Grapes of Wrath, , has betaken himself to a secluded canyon near here and padlocked himself against the world.
 There are two versions of his strict isolation.
 In Los Gatos some people tell you that the "Okies"-those desti- ute migratory farm workers whom Steinbeck handled without gloves in his book-are out to get him,
 But Steinbeck himself. who ought to know, says he's in hiding from club program chairmen and civic busybodies.
 why do they think a writer, just because he can write, will make good after-dinner speaker, or club committeeman, or even public leader?" he demands.
 I'm no public speaker and I don't want to be, I'm not even a fin ished writer yet. I haven't learned my craft
 Displaying a looking gingham dog sent him by the road side campers whom he lived with, talked with and then wrote about, Steinbeck denied his erstwhile pals had threatened him. The dog bore a tag reading, Migrant John"
 They made that out of their shirttails or whatever scraps of cloth they could spare" he said That ought to convince you the Okies aren't after me.
 If anybody's sore at me for the book I wrote. it's the moneyed peoI pie back there in Oklahoma-the big oil men and outfits like the Chambers of Commerce"
 Told that Ruth Comfort Mitch ell was planning a book on the farm migrants 'refuting" his own, Steinbeck laughed.
 T lived off and on with those Okies for three years" he said Anyone who tries to refute me will just become ridiculous"
 The author has just had his ton sils removed, to correct a sciatic condition which causes him to limp
 "As soon as get over this" he promised - more to himself than anybody else-"Ill be out on the road again, sleeping in a ditch ol somewhere, getting material for an- other yarn"

BLISTER RUST
 TURNS LEAVES
 ALONG HIGHWAY
Spruce Leaf Infection Is Explained by Forest
 Service Here

It's not sign of fall, but leaves on thousands of trees along the Glacier Highway are turning gold en orange color The unusual color in the evergreens is caused by a general outbreak of spruce leaf blis- ter-rust CMelampsoropsis cassan- dra), the Forest Service announced today. The regional office here explained as follows:
 This rust-fungi has an alter nate stage in it's life history on plants of the heath family, prin- cipally on Labrador tea, and there fore is most prevalent adjacent to muskeg and swamp areas where that plant is found. This rust forms whitish blisters on the un- derside of the spruce needles in two irregular rows. These blisters burst open to shed salmon -colored ure- diniospores which then infect the Labrador tea. On the tea leaves small red or yellowish clumps of spores are formed in the fall which carry over the winter and reinfect the spruce in the spring.
 "The spruce needles soon pro- duce two irregular lows of white blisters on the under surface and another cycle is started.
 "The effect of the rust is to com N d.
 pletely defoliate the spruce tree However, a large percentage of the trees survive and after a year or two are again in full foliage"
