This Week in the Garden
By W. H. Younsmon
The Star's Cordsn Editor

The starting of the spring
pruning job should not be delayed
any longer than necessary. When
the weather moderates there will
be so many gardening tasks de-
manding attention that the re-
moval of dead branches and other
trimming jobs will go by default
There really is a peak load OF
gardening jobs in the spring and
it is only by careful planning
that all will be taken care of
Pruning and the application OF
dormant spray should be done
in February when the weather
permits. Be sure to cover all
pruning cuts with a good tree
dressing.
The indoor sowing of early
vegetable seed crops can be done
at any time now. Sow the seed
in prepared soil or sphagnum
moss If you would avoid losses
due to the damping off disease.
Sterlizing soil by baking is one
preventative. although it is likely
to fill the kitchen with objection
able odors. Vermiculite (plant
add is another medium that may
be used to control this universally
destructive disease.
Sow the seed thinly in small
boxes or bulb pans" to tighten
the chore of moving them about
to secure sunlight and the right
temperature as we'll as for ease of
watering.
The following seeds take from
4 to 6 weeks to reach transplant
ing size: Cabbage, broccoli, let
tuce CheadD. beets. chard. onions
and kohlabi. Normally the plants
go out-of-doors sometime after
the middle of March.
In pruning peach trees 1t is
desirable to cut back the new
growths to about half OF their
length. This helps to keep the
tree within bounds and reduces
the number of fruit buds so that
the tree will not be overloaded.

In short. I am going to stick
my neck out with foolhardy brav-

A Great Orchestra Performs
By SAMUEL S. FAM
Director of The University of Arizona Band

This is being written few days after the con-
cert by the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, but
the wonderful impression which the concert
created has lost little of its effect in the nterven
ing days. Only SuperlativeS can do justice to the
performance of the Israel Philharmonic Orches-
tra which undoubtedly is one of the finest in the
world. The playing of such high calibre
and the emotional impact of the concert was so
great, that this concert must be classed as one
of those rare performances which will seldom
be duplicated
The excellent playing of the Star Spangled
Banner and Hatikvah which opened the program
indicated the high standard which was to pre-
vail throughout the concert. The two national
anthems played in musicianly and i'm
pressive fashion, not as if they we're merely
something to be gotten out of the way so the
real concert could begin
Many conductor and orchestra have come to
grief in attempting the music of Mozart To the
uninitated, Mozarts music looks easy, and in
good performance it sounds deceptively simple.
To the informed musician, Mozart is known to be
extremely difficult to play Slips which would
pass unnoticed in performance of the music of
Tschaikowsky, Brahms, and many other
posers would be catastrophe in Mozart. The
Israel Philharmonic successfully passed the test
of Mozart performance. The details of execu-
ton, phrasing, balance, ntonation, etc. had all
obviously been mastered, but mastery of the
details had not been allowed to interfere with
the music The technical facility admirable,
but the emotional projection was even more to
be admired.
In their performance of the Snfonia India by
Chavez the Israeli musicians demonstrated their
versatility. Excellent performers of the classics
not always able to cope successfully with the
works of modern composers, especially II the
music is in unfamiliar idiom
Considering the nature of the orchestra, the
inclusion of an Israeli composition was certainly
commendable. The Emek proved to be a very in
teresting piece of music. Folk influences are OBJ

vious in its melodic line but the harmonic treat
ment and the Instrumentation were decidedly
modern
For this writer the Brahms Fourth Symphony
was the high point of the evening. This master
piece is one of the finest of orchestral compost
tions and less than great performance would
have been a disappointment But this was not
the night for disappointmentS. This writer has
heard the Fourth Symphony of Johannes Brahms
many times but never performance equal to the
one given by the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra.
The conception and performance were such that
there were no flaws to be discerned
Regarding the contribution of Leonard Bern
stein to the success of the concert, one can hear
almost any opinion one desires. The principal
criticisms which are heard relate to the gestures
which Bernstein uses. Various people found
these either highly effective" or disturbing"
or good showmanship." Without getting Bern
STEMS own explanation it is impossible to know
why he used the various gestures that he did
His conducting is certainly unorthodox. Some
of the rather unusual motions may have been
merely his reaction to the music They may also
have been designed to impress the audience, for
more and symphony conductors seem to
feel that they must perform for the audience.
But the conditions peculiar to touring orchestra
must be kept in mind. Like most orchestras the
Israel Philharmonic had prepared limited rep
ertolre for the concerts to be played on tour.
After number of performances this repertoire
becomes boring, and lackadaisical performances
often result 1t is not inconceivable that Bern
stein used these rather eXtravagant and unusual
mannerisms as a device to prod his orchestra to-
a spirited performance.
The why and therefore of conductors tech
nique not subjects to be explored adequately
in few short paragraphs. For present purposes
it should perhaps suffice that Leonard Bern
stein and the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra
brought Tucson a very stimulating and satisfying
musical experience. We should be most grateful
to the many people who helped to make this con-
cert possible

disgruntled, not much to do, but

regulations, off course).
While two men took turn at
watch, the others listened to the
British Broadcasting Company.
Suddenly came the voice of Quen-
tin Reynolds, talking to DR.. Goeb-
bells, just another talk we thought.
But after that man-to-man con-
versation, if the Germans had
tried to invade England, not a
German could have landed on the
beaches.
That night after we were re-
ieved, the same spirit was found
amongst the English in the viii
lage. Wherever one went, the
people spoke only of the Goeb-
bells talks by Quentin Reynolds.
Thrilling, inspiring. One can't
find words to express that talk.
If Quentin Reynolds would talk
to Joe Stain over one of our ra-
dio chains, as he did to the late
Joe Goebbels, you would all know
what l mean.

would?

Dear Editor:

His soul inspiring talk did more

people than all the talks by Win

dent Roosevelt. In 1941 the Eng
lish people needed a soul inspir-
ing talk badly.
