American Music Festival
Introduces Four Novelties
By EIeno de Soyn

Intended as a survey Of American
music in the fields of ensemble
piano and orchestra the third
American Music Festival opened
last night in the east garden court
Of the National Gallery of Art
where the Gordon String Quartet
introduced four novelties. Five con-
certs will be presented in the festi-
val series.
Unfamiliar names appeared on
the program-Anthony Donate, a
graduate of the Eastman School;
Arthur Berger, New York Sun critic;
Karl Ahrendt, formerly teacher OF
the violin, now studying for his
doctorate in composition at the
Eastman School, and Boris Kout-
zen. native of Russia and a vio-
linist by profession. The works of
Mr.. Berger and Mr.. Ahrendt were
given world premiere on this oc-
casion. while the others received
their first local performance.
Varying in degree of technical
proficiency in part writing yet uni
form as to the aim of finding new
paths OF musical expression, the
compositions abounded in disso-
nance not intended to grip the
listener emotionally. Animation, a
kind of a perpetual restless motion
which finds outlet in brittle pas
sages, requiring recurrent mixture
OF a spiccato-martelato bowling
pointless pizzicati or in a rather
extravagant avoiding of that which
might resemble form, is the sum
total of the impressions gathered
on first hearing.
Opening with Donates Quartet
in E Minor" the Gordon group
consisting of Jacques Gordon and
Urico Rossi, violins; Kras Malno
viola, and Fritz Magg, cello, sue
ceeded in arouSing sufficient inter-
est in the audience to hear the
number to the end. AS the evening
progressed, however, it was not diff
f1cult to find vacant chairs, usually
available only at a premium.
A lively introduction abounding in
scale passages for the first violin,
resolved in the Donate opus into
a short, graceful "Allegretto Mode
ratio" in which the first violin played
still the principal lead. The out
standing cantilena of the evening

ing in registers separated by many
octaves.
The three movements of Ahrendt's
suite entitled "Preludium," Sara
bande" and "Gigue" did not follow
the classic pattern. Although a
fugato mode Is introduced in the
prelude, the modernistic Sara
bande" lacks those sensuous quail
tiles which are its distinguishing
characteristics in the old masters
In the "Gigue," the composer seems
to have wished only to indicate its
character without fully developing
the action.

animation, Koutzen's Quartet No

There wasa notable lack of mid
die voicing in Berger's Three
Pieces" With the exception of the
sustained opening chords in the
Prelude" the Aria" seemed some
what disjointed, while the Waltz"
sounded thin. With an attempt at
gracefulness, it did not exactly re-
semble the familiar dance form.

were audible most of the time, end

Lack of calcium, for instance, in
the earliest years may do irreparable
damage-but, in any case, calcium is

HOrses
Horses like humans. have their good and bad
days. This fact Is generally overlooked by the
wagering public and often by racing officials who
should know better. At Bay Meadows. California,
q few years ago there was a horse that would
trail the field one day and few days later win
In gallop. For this inconsistency the horse and
his trainer were suspended. Investigation re-
vealed the horse finished last on damp and foggy
days and usually won when the day was warm
and sunny This made the answer TO the mystery
OF the horses inconsistency simple. He suffered
from a form Of rheumatism. Natpraly on a day
that the weather was damp the noble animal
didn't feel so good. On a clear day however. the
sun took the ache out Of his bones and the relief
was so welcome he went out on the track and
burned II up. On days that were sunny. he was

so many women look so ridiculous Is because OF
their attempts to initiate film stars whom they do
not in the least resemble. The faces OF females
can be classed as oval. long, round and square.
Naturally the headgear or hardo of woman
should be adapted to the shape OF her face. Any
body with the slightest Of proportion should
know that But a woman with round face will
admire film star with a square face and will
accordingly copy the celebrity's hats and hairdos.
The result Is ridiculous appearance. The shape
of mans face also figures In what kind OF hat

P0ckeh
In the Middle Ages men wore belts to which
were attached pouches for carrying their neces
sary belongings. In the seventeenth century
somebody invented pockets. AS far as the aver
age man Is concerned pockets have never been
a success Furthermore. tailors hate pockets
They claim men are inclined 10 carry so many
things in their pockets it ruins the appearance
Of wellmade suit. Every time see the fellow
who makes my suits he nags me about carrying
too much in my pockets II my wife is with me
she agrees with him. The situation has me down.
I believe pockets should be abandoned and that
We should return 10 pouches. 1t has been sug.

of this suggestion. Imagine Slapsy Maxsy

TAX INCREASE is NOT
THE ANSWER

The Administration, ac-
eording to Secretary Of the
Treasury John w Snyder,
may ask an increase in taxes
on individuals and corpora
lions IF prices get too far
out Of hand.
The idea is to, take away
some OF the spending funds
available To- individuals and
business in order to reduce
the inf ationary pressure.
We Iail to see where it
would be reasonable to in
crease taxation on individ-
uals, many Of whom viii be
hard hit by increased prices,
in order to reduce buying
power. Individuals on sal
aries and those with fixed
incomes viii suffer consider
ably if there is a sharp in
crease in prices and their
predicament would be con-
siderably aggravated by any
measurable increase in tax
alton.
The Secretary of tn e
Treasury is on firm e r
ground, however, when he
suggests heavier / axes on
corporations and business
enterprises. IF there is mark
ed initiation there will be a
larger profit and those who
make it viii be able to pay
heavier taxes without suf-
fering much.

WHO WON?

A newspaper article pokes
fun at the Soviet Union, al
leging that Russian publi-
cation asserts that the Red
army, plus Red workers,
scored the victory over the
''fascists" and that the job
was done without much help
from anybody else
This will be news, OF
course, to most Americans.
Over here we have been in
formed that the victory was
by the Air Force alone, by
the Army on its own and by
the exartions of the Navy,
with side claims that it was
won BY American labor, big
business, capitalism, t h e
public school system and
the churches.
The Russians have appar-
emily reduced their claims
to the army and the work
ers. Over on this side of the
Big Pond we have not yet
been able to pass on the
merits of the claimants and
public opinion is still divid.
ed. with protagonists IN
sistently advancing claims
of their favorite candidate.

JAPS DROWNED 1000
CAPTIVES

While German atrocities
have received major atten-
ton in this country, largely
because more Americans
were involved in the mis-
treatment, there is no reason
to overlook the brutality of
the japanese ia the Far
East.
The mistreatment of SUBJ
ject peoples and of Allied
captives by the japanese
exhibited the same brutality
seen ia Europe. The trials
now proceeding in the Far
East are necessary if the ma
tions fighting Japan have
any idea of protecting their
soldiers from atrocities in
future wars.
Recently. a Netherlands
Army military high court
has revealed that the Japan
csc drowned 1000 Austral-
ian, British and Dutch guer-
rilla fighters. after captur-
ing them in Java. Five wit
nesses report that the Jap
anese forced two captured
soldisrs into a basket, load
ed hundreds of baskets on
ships and dumped the men
into the sea a few miles off
the coast of Java.
