gifted young woman the pleasure
OF developing them. Her perform
ance yesterday was a superior one,
doubly revealing, since she played
against an inadequate accompani-
ment. In spite of the orchestra's
lack Of support of the soloist, she
kept the attention riveted on her
performance by the fire and bril-
nancy she gave to it. Tremendous
applause and several floral tributes
were evidence of the impression she
made on her listeners.
Although the orchestra was less
successful in forming q background
for the pianist than it has done on
other occasions, its playing of the
three numbers which comprised its
program carried a distinct degree
OF finish. The work of the players
has progressed with astonishing
rapidity and the gain in pliancy,
tonal warmth and purity of intona-
ton is considerable. There is more
unity in attack and an unanimous
feeling for effects, and the growth
toward professional status is
marked. DR.. Hetzel brought out
many fine points in his directing,
besides giving care to properly
defined musical line. He is able to
awaken a response in the orchestra
members which makes for a spirited
Interpretation. Although the audi
ence was not overly large it made
up for this deficiency by a gener-
ously expressed enjoyment Of the
orchestra's readings.

those whom it charmed on the stage
will recall, was the play which
multitude said could not be made
into a movie. It's simplicity, en-
phasized by the fact that it was
played without scenery and with
the most stark of properties, was
regarded as beyond the imagination
of the movie makers, If well within
the scope of a camera used inteln-
gently.
Without reviewing the picture at
this point-it is not due for some
weeks yet at the Palace-yester-
days screening demonstrated this
to be an under estimate of the
cinema's inspiration. Our Town"
could not have been made by ira
ditional methods, but Wood did not
choose to use traditional methods.
He has used the almost infinite
range of the camera, as it nor
mally is used only in the case of
fantastic comedies like Topper"
or the more fantastic horror pic
lures, starring Boris Karloff. He
has done it, however, to achieve
the utterly simple effect instead of
the weird one. He has done it,
too, with a success that will be one
of the most impressive qualities of
the picture. And possibly to the
inspiration of others who have been

The particular fallacy in the

that males with thinning hair have

movie producer.

Completely disorganized mentally
by such an attitude, Paramount
wanted to know why.
That's all wrong" said Carroll,
about a man with thinning hair
having no appeal. A man with
thin wisps of hair on his pate has
more appeal than one with a thick
thatch. It gives him an air of dis
tinction, of worldliness, of a man
who has accomplished things. Any

high light of the concert by the

evening at Central High School.
The young artist was as poised as q
professional pianist of long stand

The concerto was preceded by an

Of players, who play for the love Of

lude, Choral and Fugue," Sibelius'
"Valse Triste" and Beethoven's over

From the ponderous opening
chords of the first movement to its
magnificent cadenza, Miss Gates
played in a broad, free manner
eminently fitted to this work, which
has been the favorite of pianists
Of the grand style. The sorority Of
her tone, with its ringing quality In

and spirit of her delivery, gave q
finish to her work while revealing

Miss Artaud Is Heard
In Piano Recital

A satisfying piano recital, given
by Winifred Howell Artaud In the
intimacy Of the concert hall Of the
Arts Club last night, was an occa-
sion when the soothing strains of
music, blending with the mood Ct
q musical audience, intensified their
enjoyment Of the social hour.
It was In the two familiar Arab
eSques" by Debussy that Miss Artaud
found her ideal medium of express
sion, as she delicately developed the
flowing melodies under her fingers.
Bach = BuSoni's "Chaconne," the
opening number on the program,
was another selection which brought
to the fore the finer sensibilities of
her playing. While one missed bril-
nancy In the runs and greater So
norities from the instrument, the
fact that the "Chaconne" was not
intended for the piano, but for a
much smaller instrument, made
such q reading in keeping with the
intentions Of the composer. Miss
Artaud's Interpretation was thought
full, as was her phrasing and the
use of overtones.
Less interesting were Debussy's
"Ballade" and "Reverie," which re-
quire an intellectual approach. In
the Chopin group, which followed,
one missed greater depth and
vibrancy Of tone, as, for instance,
in the 'Etude, Op. 10, No. g." How
ever, If Miss Artaud is inclined to
refrain from ponderous effects and
prefers not to extract greater VOL
ume of tone from the piano, her
playing is nonetheless effective in
compositions which require just
that particular quality of touch.
That 1t carries the message she
