semblage been seen at these mu-
steal, social events. Interest in
this particular occasion was
heightened by the presence Of
Dean Dixon, brilliant young
New York musician, who served
as guest conductor of the cele-
brated Boston Symphony Or
chestra, the first time a man of
the race has so served here in
Boston. He was hailed most en-
thusically as in a highly dy-
manic manner, he drew from
the musicians a superlatively
fine type of orchestration. Bos-
ton music critics pronounced
him a distinct find.
The occasion marked the first
appearance in Boston as plan
list of Donald Shirley who is
studying at Harvard for his PhD.
His performance was warmly
received. Miss Hattie Barbour,
daughter of Rev Barbour OF
Christ Temple was the vocal
Soloist in her second appearance
in Symphony Hall. The young
singer also won generous APP
plause from the audience.
Though the majority of the
audience was composed of col
ored patrons, there was a good
sprinkling of the other race at
the floor tables and in the bal
comics. The scene on the floor
was a brilliant one with many
of the ladies' attired in beauti-
full evening costumes.

 Remember all those wonderful things we are going to do just as soon as the war was over? Well, somebody may call our hand on those, especially the small fry who have good memories for such wild promises.
 BUSINESS DOES IT. TOO
 And we individuals aren't the only ones who will have to quit using the old alibies and excuses Firms and businesses that have blamed the war for all their slip. ups, poor service, and mistakes are either going to have to de better from ncb on or think ur other reasons for giving inferior service.
 But don't worry too much about it. Maybe for a while we can get by with blaming the reconversion period for all the things we don't get done. And maybe that will give us an interlude i nwhich we can again start doing instead of talking. But it won't be easy Not nearly as easy as having the war to blame for everything.
 Still we used to manage with out the war-and maybe we can again.
