lCdIu iicTc WHO WdITduC greater
place in public life and greater ap-
probation from the concert public
than they are receiving. Zinc
Francescatti Is certainly one of the
greatest, if not the greatest violinist
of the musical world, yet his con-
cert was not sold out and no pro-
vision in the way of extra seats on
the stage was necessary for avid
fans. In the National Gallery of
Art, John Kirkpatrick and in the
Pan American Union. Jose Vieira
Brandao. demonstrated a rare quail
ity of pianism yet their names are
practically unknown to the general
public.
There have been many others Of
this type who have come, impressed
their listeners and passed on They
will play here and there but it will
be years, perhaps, before their names
appear in capitals as the drawing
card of symphony of concert pro-
gram. The number who are await
ing the chance for even a minor en-
gagement is great and the acclaim
which they justly deserve may
never be forthcoming.
What is the reason of this? The
managers cannot be blamed for
theirs is a business with the slogan,
Give the public what it wants" ]"
The public, in one way, is not to be
censored for naturally it likes the
artists whose renown rings through
the country and who. mostly, can be
counted on to give superlative per-
formance. The few who object to
seeing the same names on the con-
cert list, year after year, have very
small voice against the majority.
But it is mistake to think that
celebrated artists always give the
finest performances. In technical
perfection and interpretive finesse,
yes, but in many respects their play
ing or singing follows a stereotyped
pattern. Appearing before the public
is now their profession. They have
done it for years, so that the only
heart they bring to it is the desire
to maintain a standard. The glorious
first flush of enthusiasm has worn
away long ago.
The unknown musicians, on the
contrary, are working with a love
for their art still fresh. They have
assimilated all that the celebrated
ones can give them and are seeking
to go further. What men like
Francescatti and Kirkpatrick can
give in the way of a new approach
is highly stimulating in its genuine
ness, depth and beauty. 1t is what
is needed to keep music alive and
progressive.
1t would seem that the public is
at fault, after ALL If it were willing
to patronize a concert by a fairly
unknown artist, if it would be honest
in its appreciation, the managers
would be relieved of their worry,
the musicians would find the way
open to them and the audiences

Cape Fear Country Club Postpones Tournament;
Cats May Be Minus Two Regulars Friday Night
Gibson And Kuhn Nurse Bad
Injuries From Wilson Tilt

The New Hanover High school Wildcats, who fought
gamely Friday night but\suffered q heart-breaking 1877
defeat, came out of the encounter minus the services of
two first string players - Jim Gibson and Bill Kuhn.
Both lads, injured slightly before Friday, were busted
up badly in the Wilson struggle, and neither may be in
good enough shape to start in the Durham contest this
week. Gibson is suffering from a bad knee, which is re-
ceiving treatments from a local doctor. Kuhns ankle has
swollen up to such enormous size that the 200 pound tackle
is resting in bed. Finley Mcmillan, who has been alternating
at left end with Bobby Stewart, came up with a bad cold
yesterday.
Aside from these three the Wildcat lineup Is In fair
shape, but definitely will not be at top strength for the all
important Durham game.
Plans announced by the MINIS athletic department
state that the varsity is scheduled to leave Wilmington at
9 o'clock Friday morning so as to give the boys a good rest
before the contest.
Meanwhile the squad was heartened by the news Of a
last chance to get into the championship play-offs. Many Of
them believe Rocky Mount may upset Wilson, and Fayette-
vile will defeat Raleigh.
Many local fans have been making plans to attend the
Durham game and stay over Saturday for the Duke Wake
Forest football battle.

afternoon for the game with the

Considerable time was spent on

ton on punt and kickoff returns,
with Johnny Clements and Jim
Camp, Wingbacks, and Billy Britt

Plenty Worried Over
Duke Plays -4sl

WAKE FOREST, Nov. 6-P)-
Despite reports that Wake Forest
will be favored in its game with
Duke Saturday, Coach Peahead
Walker is taking no chances and
ran his Deacons through another
long workout Wednesday that last
ed until dark.
In the long workout, the Deacons
covered nearly every phase of the
game. They worked or their block
ing, their tackling, on their running
~offense, their passing, and their
kicking.
They also studied Blue Devil
plays as they worked on their de-
lenses against rushing and passing.
The Deacons brushed up on
place-kicking for extra points in II
attempts this season.
Finally, Walker gave his players
some new plays FOR use against
the Blue Devils if the going gets
rough Saturday.
There was good news from the
Wake Forest injured list as it was
announced that Clay Groom, full
back, and Dewey Hobbs, tackle,
would be back in shape by Satur-
day. 1t was still doubtful whether
Red Cochran, star tailback who
has been out most of the season
with injuries, would be able to
play.
