Another Strip Mining Operation Will
Open In The Belle Valley Community

Another large independent strip
mining operation in Noble county is
expected to be opened in the near
future, according to an announce
ment made today by Fred Bradley,
Cambridge, representing the Tower
Coal Co.
Centering in the vicinity of Belle
Valley, Mr.. Bradley said that the
company in the next 80 to As days
expects to be loading 700 to 1000
tons per day over a temporary
tipple, picking table and crusher.
With the arrival of necessary mater
iaIs and rails the company will be
loading so to so cars daily before the
end of November.
The company has under lease and
outright purchase approximately
1.3O0 acres of land with several
million tons of what is known as
Pittsburg No. 8. The coal has been
tested and an analysis taken and
submitted to the Tower Coal Co.,
and Harris Coal Corp, of Cleveland.
The Harris corporation will be the
sole sales agents for the coal
The company has leased the old
Forsythe loading platform at Belle
Valley. This site consists of over 100
acres and the Tower firm will erect
a large tipple and repair shop and
numerous other buildings for the
proper preparation of the coal.
Noble county is rapidly becoming
the center of strip mining operations
in this section of the state and each
week it has been branching out tc
include the entire of the county.
In his Sunday column in the Col
umbus Citizen, 'Dud" Chamberlain
of Marietta puts another light on
strip mining. He says that over and
about Dexter City, four foot vein
of coal is to be found by uncoverine
an average of Is feet of ground
which is not too hot in fertility.
Shippers with 1900 acres under
lease are at present shipping from
rs to 20 carloads per day. An acre
of ground produces on an average
of 1000 tons of coal. The land ownel
is paid Is cents ton royalty which
nnakes $1,000 per acre plus the re-
turn of his land after stripping.
This realistic view of the subject
compels one to admit that the lane
owner is justified in selling farm:
for $1,000 an acre which never be.
fore would have sold for five pei
cent of this amount.

Driven Home By
Sepia Student,
COED EViCted

NEW YORK - Despite what
the gossips may be saying
about 19-year-old Iris Alexan-
der, the University of Wiscon-
sin coed who was evicted from
her room for attending an in
terrac!al meeting on the college
campus, her mother and brother
are firmly behind her.
It was rumored at first that
Iris haG dated a colored student
and that caused her landlady,
Mrs. Arthur Rupc, to order her
to move out. But Iris says she
merely attended an interracial
meeting, accepted a drive home
from the student, talked for five
minutes on the porch with him
and that set off all the trouble.
Mrs. Rupo Immediately up
braided her and told her to pack
and leave. When fellow student
Constance FELTON, of Brooklyn,
tried 10 show Mrs Rupo the in
Justice of her decision, she, too,
was evicted.
Back in New York. Iris moth
err, a widow commented, She's
always been very interested in
racial equality. People always
talk about equality but nobody
ever Goes anything about 1t. I
feel Iris is right and is standing
up for her convictions. We are
definitely behind her"

years ago, with colored enroll

let it be known they would be

were groomed in the delicate taos

And plenty did. The opening Of
school on September 2 set off a

centered in one of Gary's largest

BY dedicating the National SYM
phony's first Sunday concert yester-
day in Constitution Hall to Tschai-
kowsky and Wagner, DR.. Hans Kind
ler invested the program with high
drama and musical descriptiveness.
In spite of their fundamental diff
ferences, these two composers could
be set aflame by emotional suffering
and represent it in music with tre-
mendous scope and vividness. This
Is music to which the SymphonyS
conductor responds with sensitive
insight and the feeling of how the
orchestral tone should be used for
its expression. In both sections of
the program, the afternoons soloist.
Astrid Varnay, was heard in opera
excerpts.
The brilliant performance of the
introduction and Polonaise" from
Tschaikowskys Eugene Onegin"
and the innpassioned delivery of his
c0klS k<SSl1l, o11IOoSc od 4S1l1l1414,
confirmed the opening nights i'm
preston that the orchestra, as a
body, has reached the point where
1t is concerned with unity and with
the massed sound. DR.. Kinder has
now achieved give and take of
more pronounced proportions among
the sections and less labored play
ing in the strings. In fact, the
smoothness of tone both as to quail
tty and pitch in the violins beauti-
fles tie ensemble considerably.
They are able to become unobtrusive
when other choirs have the theme
and to blend more completely with
the other voices without forcing
/ the tone.
The rhythm Of the "Polonaise"
was nicely accentuated and the
first and final tragic sections of the
tone poem we're played with sweep
! and power. The delicate center
portions Jagged little in spirit, in
the good cause, however, of greater
poetic expressiveness. From Wag-
; ner's Ring" were two orchestral
excerpts, the Song of the Rhine
Maidens" from Goetterdaemme-
rung' and Forest Murmurs" from
"Siegfried." eliminating in the
"Immolation Scene" from "Goet-
terdaemmerung," it was Wagner
playing at its best, vital and song
full.
1t was in the latter number that
Miss Varnay did her best singing.
Her statuesque appearance is ideal
for the Bruennehilde role and she
was as dominating while quietly
standing during the orchestral end
ing as when singing. Her voice is
strong and healthy and the Wag-
merriam tessitura causes no strain
on it. She sings the music with
freedom that gives ease to the list
ener and she invests it with her own
individuality.
But her voice is in no way suited
to the Letter Scene from Tschai-
kowsky's Eugene Onegin" She
applied. the Wagnerian tone to it
which was too mature and sharp in
quality for the character and this
very important scene. Miss Var
nays voice is without warmth or
mellowness which is a pity con-
sidering her other excellent equip
ment. The subtleties of sentiment
cannot be attained as she sings now
and, in quieter styaBsthan the Wag-
merriam, the tones want clarity and
concentration She has dicfipc
tive personality that does not need
to be cast exclusively in the Wag-
merriam mold. She was cordially ap-l

Sorin Plays at National ,GaKery.
The premiere of Albert Spalding' s
"Pastorale and Clique" introduced a
set of modern works which cilmaxed
the program offered by Samuel
Sorin, pianist. in the National Gal
lery of Art last night. 1t was in
numbers couched in the modern
idiom that the artist was at his best,
his truly brilliant gifts coming into
their full Towering. The only weak
ness in his virtuosity is as an in
terpreter which the first part of
his program, consisting of the Bach
Busoni chorale prelude, Il Call
Upon Thee, Lord" Mozart's Sonata
IN D major, K. 576" and Chopin's
Sonata in B minor" demanded.
Although there was delicacy in
delivery in the Mozart it was not
matched by like clarity and the
Chopin, sound in details, held little
appreciation of it's poetic nature.
In most of the essentials of tech
nlque and musical understanding
there was nothing to Guibble about
