Tufts Opens
Organ Music
Festival
Program Reveals
Superb Artistry
OF Performer
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

-
The festival of organ music spon-
sored by the District OF Columbia
Chapter of the American Guild of
Organists opened last evening with a
program by William o. Tufts, jr., at
the chapel of the Church of the
Latter Day Saints. The recitals will
continue through Friday presenting,
as stated in the program, "a repre-
sentative cross-section of the entire
field Of organ music" Only works
written especially for the organ and
the best of the well known composers
for this instrument are to be heard.
Mr.. Tufts, who is organist of the
New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church. chose the works of Ameri-
can composers for his program.
These included Sowerby's prelude,
Rejoice Ye Pure in Heart" Noble S
Autumn" Clokey's Cathedral Prel-
ude," Yon's "Toccatina for Flute"
and Dickinson's symphony, IS torm
King" The selections covered ap-
proximately the last SO years.
While there was less of the majesty
and sorority of the earlier masters
OF organ composition in the type of
writing of these present-day repre-
sentatives, the power for expressing
mood and description was abundantly
present. If the works are not so
virile as that of Bach, his predeces-
sors and his contemporaries, it al
lows for a play of color and a range
of dynamics. Thus in Noble "Au-
tumn," the coloring was soft and
mellow while Dickinson's symphony,
descriptive of nature near the COM
poser's home, brought a wide play
Of light and shade as we'll as sharply
contrasted moods. Yon's "Toccatina
for Flute is a delicate, joyful num-
Der and devotional atmosphere we'll

Henceforth, however, according to
Director Elizabeth Giles, they will
be permitted to branch out into

ing they feel most at home in, even
Hindu, maybe.
Tomorrow nights program will
include demonstrations of bar work
and groups worked out in class
sessions. Also there will be two
new symphonic ballets, to choreog-
raphy by Miss "Bolero" and
Greek frieze, mostly in two di-

also will appear on the program,
dancing Repression" to music by
Sergei Prokofieff.
Madeleine 'Lazard, a Washington
girl who has danced her way
around large portion of the world,
will present a recital Thursday
night at Pierce Hall. She studied
ballet in Paris, appeared there in
the Russian Opera Ballet, directed
by Michel Fokine. Later Miss
Lazard toured Europe, South
America and North Africa in ballet
companies directed by such experts
as Boris Romanoff. Bronislava

The character of these works gave
opportunity for the appreciation of
Mr.. Tufts very smooth and fluent
technique. He has fine sense of
restraint in tonal volume and a
sensitive touch in the creating of
tonal beauty, eschewing all effort and
roughness even in the most dramatic
passages. In the mounting power Of
the measures in thirds of the
symphony and the tremendous pedal
demands in the finale, he still MAIN
tanned the flowing quality of sound
in mastery fashion.
For sheer beauty of sound and
poetry Of idea, his playing of
Autumn" was outstanding. Note
worthy principally for its mood, the
work could be badly treated by a
less artistic instinct. Mr.. Tufts in
the manner in which he formed the
background with an uninterrupted
weaving of sound over which scared
the melody achieved a tone. picture
with superb effect. The same deli
cate and sensitive feeling directed
the performance of the "Toccatina'
with its sparkling technical demands
and the unfolding of the more de-
scriptive Cathedral Prelude"
This evening the program will be
given by Nancy Poore, organist o1
Georgetown Presbyterian Church
and Gene Stewart. organist o1
Waugh Methodist Church. Miss
Poore will play Bachs "Fugue a la

Snack Samplers
Find Free Variety
Al Food Show
Demonstrators Learn
To Spot Them and
Sometimes Try Cures

Demonstrators at the spring food
show, which opened with fanfare
at Riverside Stadium last night, de-
scribed the appearance among the
crowd of species Of Homo Sapiens
rarely seen elsewhere. These folk
may be known variously as smack
snatchers," chronic samplers" and
'pernicious taste testers"
r. r. German, margarine display
exhibitor, revealed that in the
opening hour one gentleman made
10 visits, receiving a cracker and
spread at each trip.
Various Techniques Employed.
There's no cure for the snack
snatchers, said the man at the
breakfast cereal display. The wom-
an exhibitor at the coffee counter
gave general agreement, but de-
clared that in her case she was able
to run out of hot water" when de-
mands for her drink became unrea-
sonable. Mrs. Gertrude Howell,
sandwich spread lady, said that
her technique is to smile brightly
and say loudly:
Haven't you been here before?"
This sometimes works, she said
The menu of free goods for the
typical chronic sampler last night,
as he wandered in an oval about
the auditorium, was about as fol-
lows:
Potato chips, cheese popcorn,
crackers and margerine. coffee. GIN
ger ale, crackers and sandwich
spread, hot biscuits, cottage cheese
and buttermilk This runs to
starches and incompatible liquids,
but that stops nobody, say the DEM
onstrators.
Miss Nation Wide Chosen.
High light of the evenings pro-
gram was selection of Miss Nation
Wide. who will represent the store
chain sponsoring the food show,
which will run through Saturday
with sessions from 2 to 80 pm. and
to 1890 pm. Tonight couple
will be publicly married at the show.
Winner of the title last night
was Miss Alice Stats, 10. of 6O9
North Carolina avenue Sc. Miss
Dolly Williams, IA, of Arlington,
Va, and Miss Betty Comfy, 10, of
1869 Columbia road NV, won Sec
ond and third places by popular
vote.
Not that it proves anything about
the relationship between food and
beauty-but the new food queen
says she cant cook a speck,'' the
runnerup says she tries to cook a
little while the third-place win
ner claims to be able to cook any
thing at all.
