SOrin Returns
In Piano Recital
At Art Gallery
By Elena de Soyn

Samuel Sorin, who made his
debut here a year ago in October
returned for another piano recital
in the National Gallery of Art last
night. This time the young
pianist confined himself almost
exclusively to one type of compo-
sition, known to place maximum
demands on technical resources of
an artist. He added, however, one
novelty to a program of standard
works: Variations on a Cantus
Firmus" by Vitorio Giannini, to
which he gave a first local
hearing. ri

DR.. Hans Kinder directed the
Sunday afternoon concert of the
National Symphony for the last
time yesterday and was given an
ovation for the spirited and we'll
planned performance. 1t was
an all Tschaikowski program,
enough in itself to fill Constitu-
ton Hall as it was yesterday, and
the occasion of the local debut of
the young Rachmaninoff Piano
Award winner, Seymour Lipkin.
In its welcoming applause, the
audience paid homage to the con-
ductor and on his return after
the intermission, rose to its feet
to honor him further. At the end
of the program, after several re-
calls, DR.. Kinder showed his ap-
probation of the orchestra'S work
by warm handclasps for the con-
certmaster and the first 'cellist
amid continuing applause.
The severing of old ties between
the conductor and the Sunday au-
dience and the emotionaliSm OF
Tschaikowsky's music created an
atmosphere of intensity through
out the program. The playing OF
the Symphony No. S" in con-
clusion was the afternoons dra-
matte climax. The orchestra has
never played it better or DR.. Kin
dler been so forceful in his de-
clamation. 1t was full blooded
music making, yet not overdone
for nuances were cleanly effected
and the color range of telling va
riety. The tremendous final move
ment scared with dramatic power
and the manner in which this
was achieved was a mastery ex-
hibition of interpretive building
up in which every phrase was
given it's reason for being.
The second high spot of the
program was the performance Of
the Concerto in B Flat Minor
by Mr.. Lipkin. The 21-year-old
pianist is not only a virtuoso but
a musician of sensitive feeling
already as mature in the one as
in the other. His fingers hold
strength and brilliancy so that
octave passages were dispatched
with the utmost ease and his trill
was a thing of beauty. The stamp
of his teacher, Serkin, lies heavily
upon him and this was both an
asset and a hindrance. For the
opening chords, his weighty and
sonorous delivery was impressive
as were many of the bravura pas
sages where clear, fleet runs were
of crystalline character. He had.
too, musical plan in mind which
he set forth definitely 1t. how
ever, was not always convincing.
Part of it fell short through lack
of depth and singing quality to
his tone in softer moments so
that the lovely mood of the An
dantino" and like sections of the
first movement lost distinction.
Although Mr.. Lipkin started
the Concerto" in a way that
promised to be exciting. he did
not maintain the driving spirit to
the end. 1t was his lack of for
ward motion that held his per-
formance entirely to the facts
even in the last Allegro" where
greater abandon would have ex-
pressed its con fuoeo" character.
The solidity of his splendidly
fluent technique, the evidences of
his musical responsiveness and
the polish that already marks his
playing are far beyond his years
besides being of an order per-
mitting growth and development.

boz" Although well played tech
nically. "Scarbo" being considered
one of the most difficult pieces in
piano literature, the three numbers
sounded alike, ripping but un-
imaginative.
The Bach-Busoni Organ Pre-
lude and Fugue in D Major"
proved to be the finest selection
on the program because of the
manner in which Mr.. Sorin pre-
sented it. This type of work
seemed to stress all the sterling
qualities of his accomplishment
and training which came to the
fore in pedal effects, clarity of
voicing. flexibility of wrist action
and resiliency of touch.

Mill Vacations Cut Sales
In Cotton Textile Market
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, July 2.-Ap-
preaching mill shutdowns for an
nual vacations continued to re-
strict activity in the cotton tex
tile market during the past week.
However some fairly large
quantities of print cloths sold for
prompt shipment. partly due to a
further easing in some construc-
tions.
The popular 80-square print
cloth number sold down to 1874
cents a yard. although some SELL
ing houses refused to bulge below
18 cents. Sheetings, drills and
twills. and Osnaburgs were dull.
Some broadcloth constructions
were in demand from the shirt
ing trade.
The wool goods market held
steady. Manufacturers pressed
for early deliveries without sue
cess. Belated buying of fall
goods found mills unprepared to
move goods promptly against re-
cent new orders. Merchants an
ticipated the first showings of
spring 1850 lines later this month.
The Quartermaster Corps called
for bids on $4,000 wool jackets
with bids to be opened July 20.
There was a firmer tone to the
rayon goods market as it began
to feel the effect of mill curtail-
ments to adjust production to a
lower buying pace. Tissue failles
and all-viscose crepes were in de-
mand. Gabardines were a strong
number, and some mills were re-
ported booking goods up to Sep
tember delivery.

Lead and Copper Demand
Rises Further in Week
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, July 2.-Sales of
lead and copper continued to i'm
prove this week and prices of all
major ferrous metals held

Lead made the sharpest gains
Tonnages sold were the largest
since the beginning of the year
June delivery sales came to around

monthly average last year.
Custom smelters have sold good
sized tonnages of lead for July
delivery on an average price basis
rather than at the present fixed
quotation of IL cents a pound,
New York.
Copper buying this week again
was more than sufficient to absorb
the daily custom smelter intake of
ore and scrap. On some days. the
smelters had a carryover of sales
orders, at 16 cents pound. into
the following day.
Scrap copper going to the smell
ters recorded a sharp decline. In
the first three weeks of June. the
intake of refined copper-making
grades of scrap totaled only 5.100
tons, with the prospect that the
total for the full month would

was $4,000 tons: for April, 10000.
Some trade sources were doubt
full whether there would be much
more refined metal available at

that the smelters have substantial
stocks accumulated at higher
prices. The large mine operators
