BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

One of the most enjoyable con-
certs Of the season was given yeSter-
day afternoon at the Pan American
Union by the Camp Lee Symphony
Orchestr aunder the direction OF
Corpl. George Hoyen. This large
group of soldier musicians number
ing 100 members came at the spe-
cial invitation of the Brazilian EN-
bassy to play a program equally di-
vided between composers of Brazil
and the United States. A pianist of
unusual talent was made known also
in the person of Pvt. Joseph Bat
tista, who was heard in the first
movement of the MacDowell Con
certo in D Minor" and in Mignone S
"Primeira Fantasia Brasileira."
With the exception of McaDowell,
the composers programmed are con-
temporary, several of them born
about the time MacDowe1 died.
Those of the United States, Van
Vactor, Fuleihan and COPELAND, are
well known, but if memory serves
correctly this was the first time a
work by Fuleihan has been per-
formed here by orchestra. Among
the Brazilians were the famous
names of Guarnieri, Mignone, Villa
Lobos and Fernandez.
Pvt. Battista, who won the Guio-
mar Novaes award in 1910 and spent
a year of study and concertizing in
Brazil, is pianist who brings rich
emotional endowment to a brilliant
and arresting technical equipment.
He is a master at constructing his
effects, which he does with an ex-
citing quality of suspense and great

His admirers gave him a warm re-
ception and followed his program
with unabating enthusiasm.
1t was not until after the inter-
mission that Sergt. List got into his
stride and did his best playing. The
first part Of the program found the
artist a little unsure of himself and
unable to do justice in tone and
style to the classic opening group
which he began with the unpro-
grammed II Call on Thee, o Lord, !"
by Bach. But with Mendelssohn's S
"Rondo Capriccioso," Song without
words in F major" and the Hutche-
son arrangement of the scherzo
from Midsummer Nights Dream, 4"
the f1uency Of his technique and the
brilliancy of his delivery was again
in the ascendency.
From this point on the dashing
style. artistic sensibility and sound
musicianship that has won him a
prominent place among young
pianists colored his playing with
pronounced effect. The waltz in c
sharp minor" by Chopin, given as
encore after the Mendelssohn, had
particular delicacy in the feet, light
runs and flowing style. Another solo
grouping including Rachmaninoff's

lillian composers have an expansive
ness type of fantasy and range OF
color the North Americans have not
acquired or allowed themselves to
use. The rich folklore of Brazil is
a constant inspiration to her musi-
clans, while our composers draw
from another source. The orchestra,
through Corpl. Hoyen's intuitive
directing, caught the atmosphere
and exhilarating rhythms of these
works with special artistry and its
stirring performance brought a
storm of applause.

have been normally but the fans
preferred to feel it still was
pretty good entertainment for

the Cardinals had a walkaway

two leagues was approximately

Baseball Men
Keeping Quiet
And Hopeful

Baseball officials, we thought,
did a rather tactful job of keep
ing their lips buttoned in the
days following the government
clamping of the lid on horse rae
ing. While there may have been
some temptation to at least scott
at the betting officials who said
the horse industry was being
made a goat and that other
sports, inclu d in G baseball,
should be cracked down upon,
the baseball folks, with one or
two windy exceptions, showed
fine restraint.
For his first slash at sport,
Director of War Mobilization
and Reconversion Byrnes Sc
lected horse and dog racing and
gave his reasons for so doing.
At that iuncture it seemed like
a big, drastic move, and it still
does, but before the ink Ind
dried on the edict-before any
body but track and gambling
people had taken time to digest
the scope of the actual ruling
there was a grand rush to en-
mesh other sports. That many
persons should be indifferent to
sports is understandable. Why
some persons are sports antis
regardless of the game, we can
not so readily grasp, The rush
of many to throw all sports in
the ashcan along with the horse
and betting industry was strik-
ing.
Picks On other Activities
Herbert Bayard Swope, chair
man OF the New York state rae
ing commission, and horse
park owner, was quoted as TAX
ing a whack at all sports, then
at the racing business in Cali
fornia, where he has no inter
ests, as contrasted with the rae
ing business in New York and
Florida.
1T occurs to me that the edict
calls also for an investigation
into other sports besides rae
ing" was one of the quotes sent
out on Swope.
If he was quoted accurately,
Swope wound up his beef with
"The edict is one of the para
doxes of the war. New York and
Florida racing is not conducted
in acute labor areas, as in the
case of California.
Has Own Problems

Lands, and we do not believe
he is running for the office. We
therefore would like to see him
doing his own worrying about
his own branch of sport with
