Hornet football in two years as
they lost straight last season In
addition to losing the last two Of
the preceding season. Greatly out
weighed they rose to meet every
Rather threat, and tneir tally
was the result of pass completed
between two players who have never
had on football uniform before,
a fine tribute to their spirit and
the coaching of Brown and Lock-
hart.
Standouts of the game were hard
to name due to excellent team play
for the Hornets. In addition to
those already named, something
must be said about the work Of
Tngraham, a 165 pound vet center
shifted to tackle, Jackson shifted
from end to fullback, and the
tackling of Young and Kennedy
and Clayton. F'lorida's big backs,
Quarls, Can't, and Albury were
constant threats, and Lamar. Law

over the Golden Tigers OF 1uSke-

Ralph Robinson and Charles NC

the material available, and now
that the Panthers have reached

DAVID T. HARPER A
REAL STAR
In David T. Harper, Coach Rob-
inson has one of the best triple
threats ever developed in the South.
Oddly enough, Harper is not the
type of backfield man that breaks
thru for long gains of go or Is
wards, but is a rather consistent
ground gamer. His punting is not
above the average, but he general
w gets them off "under-fire, and
that is what counts. On the other
hand, passing is right down his
Galley" to say nothing OF his
deception and masterful ballhandl-
ing. Harper was selected on the
"SNS ALL-SOUTHERN last year
and indications are that he will
make the All-American mythical
eleven this season. His real value
however, is the fact that he is
a "tealn-man." He never attempts
to "steal the show" but rather
works hard with his fellow team
mates. What is more, publicity viii
not go to his head In short, Harp
er is Just one of those "natura
athletes, man any coaca woule

Polish Composers Symphony
To Be Given Premiere TONIGHT

Washingtonians tonight will have
!. m opportunity to hear symphony
written by 4 leading contemporary
Polish composer. who Is aestheti-
cally opposed to the idea that music
must have literary or descriptive
background.
Alexander Tansman's symphony
No. S in D" will be given its world
premiere by the National Sym
phony Orchestra at Constitution
Hall at $50 o'clock.
He believes music should be
written for its emotional content.
and therein he rests his hope for
the success of his music.
He gave this idea here yesterday
while releasing for the premiere.
Explaining that his music has
only . strictly musical background,
Mr.. Tansman said, Il have con-
ceived this symphony just as a
work In four movements. So far
Is I am concerned, a program has
no place in symphonic music"
This Is even true of his Polish
Rhapsody" which is dedicated to
the defenders Of warsaw and which
also will be heard tonight. Al
though Mr.. Thnsman composed this
work in Nice in 1910 shortly after
escaping from the Germans in
Paris, the Polish Rhapsody" is
not war music. It is pure music,
according to its author. but be-
cause of his concern fof the fate
Of his own country only = short
time before it was written. he
grouped its themes in q way to
express moods Of Joy, pleasure,
eorrow and hope.
Mr.. Tansman escaped from Paris
June II, 1910, his birthday ami
versary, two days before the Ger
mans arrived. In August, 1941, he
came to the United States and
shortly afterward was awarded the
Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge medal
for distinguished services to cham
Der music.
