evident. At the finish Ortiz's nose
was bleeding slightly and Aguilar
had a minor eye cut. Both boys
were in splendid physical condition.
Aguilar showed ability to take all

punching without wincing.
Referee Charley Randolph voted
the contest draw. His card showed
only one point separating the box

Aguilar's jaw with noticeable effect
in the 9Th, 7th, 9Th, 11th and 18th

the Mexico City boy made up for
this by aggressiveness. Many of his
best shots were cleverly blocked

two or three blows to get in stiff

Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, which is to be played at the Base Library next Tuesday at 1945, is undoubtedly one of the most fa- nous of Beethoven's symphonies. Many have found in it's lyric pass ages the expression of the four freedoms, and the knowledge that from the depths of despotism will arise the glory of the free man.
 The pinnacle of musical achieve ment was reached by Beethoven in this symphony. With the realiza- tion that music itself has it's limi- tations, he sought new medium in which to express himself. A champion of man kind, true dem ocrat of his day, this is his final tribute to the triumph spirit of the brotherhood of mankind.
 The second selection of the weekly concert of recorded music will be Mozart's Sinfonia Concer- tante in E flat. This is essentially a duet concerto, featuring violin and viola with a magnificent en- semble which performs with un- varying precision.
 Many of Mozart's best pieces were written simply because he had nothing else to do. Often they were personal courtesies to friends and many of them were dedicated to his charming and irresponsible young wife. His Sinfonia Concer- tante was one of those, composed with incredible speed, played with the ink still wet upon the pages.
