ALL KINDS
Genius Is AS 1t Does
BY DAVE WEST


Once upon time in a secluded
hamlet there lived a young man
whose heart was fixed upon max
ing an immortal name for himself
THAT would be honored when writ
ten at the bottom of checks for
large amounts). He put himself at
tutelage under, first, renowned
author; then a great actor; and in
succession a painter of fame, a
brilliant sculptor and an admired
musician. Each of these worthless in
turn said to the ambitious youth:
"You have zeal, energy, persis-
tance-and, even, reasonably sound
intellect; but you do not have it, "
(placing the hand dramatically on
the hearty "you just don't have it
here. My advice to you is to set
for yourself a lower goal.-Be a
reporter" said the author. ENTER

come a potter" said the sculptor.

At every rebuff portion of the
youths heart (for he DID have one,
whatever the great non-anatomists
said of hinfO shattered into ILL
shaped, inartistic smithereens.
With each partial heart-break a
bit of his ambition was drained
away.
At last, the great mems fees
paid, his heart, ambition and mon
ey were all gone. He desired to be
nothing; he did nothing. He neither
shaved nor cut his hair. He scorned
wearing shoes. He went shirtless,
and wore every day a pair of
trousers that had shrivelled with
his hopes till they hung just above
his knees. His most complete gar
ment was the long look of melan-
choly which he habitually wore.
His parents despaired of him
but they fed him every day; for
they were unable to determine
which disgrace was the greater,
his continuing to live or being al
lowed to starve to death. His
friends Stunned him. His pros
poets, the villagers said, were dead.
He was counted as miserable fail
ure and became an outcast.
Then the tourist season came to
the village. And one steaming hot
day lady celebrity-collector drove
past the field in which the young
man spent his days and nights, ex-
cept for mealtimes. He was lying
embedded in ragweed, shaggy-hair-
ed, silken-bearded as is a youths
wont after six months abstention
from the razor, claid in a pair of
cut-down dungarees as nearly like
a loincloth as his paintings resem-
bled things of this world. Around

tubes of grease paint. He was sing

Weber, , Numbers Man,
Convicted Of Lying 10
Kefauver Committee
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, May 17.-Numbers
Iracketeer Louis Weber was con-
victed last night of lying to the
Senate Crime Investigating Com
mittee about his relations with
James J. Moran, pal of former
Mayor William O'Dwyer.
Weber, 51-year-old native of
Puerto Rico, will be sentenced on
the perjury conviction in Federal
Court tomorrow.
He can get up to five years in
prison and $4,000 fine - the
maximum imposed on Moran on
the same charge.
The two perjury trials were the
first prosecutions growing out of
the Senate Committees sensa-
tional televised hearings here.
Differ on Visits.
The cases hinged on the number
of times Weber visited Moran at
his office when Moran was first
deputy fire commissioner from
1916 to 1850.
Moran swore to the committee
that there were no more than six
visits. Weber testified he didn't
even know Moran. Government
witnesses told of more than 100
visits.
Moran is appealing and free in
$25, 900 bail. Weber, free in 500, 900
bail, also plans to appeal.
Weber was all smiles when the
jury of ten men and two women
returned the verdict after deli
berating about five hours. He
thanked Judge Charles A. Dewey,
the jurors and court attendants
for fair trial and courtesies.
Nothing Bothers Me-"
Nothing bothers me from sleep
ing nights" he said as he left the
court house.
Judge Dewey. who sentenced
Moran last Friday, will impose
sentence on Weber.
Neither Moran nor Weber took
the stand and no defense wit
nesses were called. The first trial
took only four days, and the
second only three.

The piano recital by Edwin
Davis yesterday afternoon in the
Phillips Gallery showed a deep
ening of this gifted players musi-
cal feeling and a general refine
ment of his artistry. This Is al
the more important since he is
already a virtuoso from the tech
nical standpoint with splendid
strength and velocity at his COM
mand. His performance of the
program was brilliant throughout
and Justly acclaimed by highly
interested audience.
The breadth of Mr.. Davis style
far exceeds that of the majority
of young artists before the public
He plays with the sweep that has
much of the grand manner in IT
maintaining a fine sorority even
when reaching what seems the
limit in tonal power. Bravura pas
Isages are delivered scintillatingly
and with a limpid quality. The
volume he draws from his instru-
Iment and his dashing virtuosity
both show a freedom and excite
ment that normally belong to
older and more seasoned players.
The three concluding works OF
his program. Ravel'S "Une BarQue
sur rocean," Debussy's "FeuS
ld'artifice," and Liszt's "Mephisto
Waltz" gave him ample opportu-
nifty to display these elements OF
his talent. The technical diff
culties posed in these works mat
tered not at all to him. Yet the
peak of his performance rested in
the Brahms Sonata in F Minor
lop. S." where his massive deliv-
cry of the Allegro maestoso" was
Immediately impressive.
Mr.. Davis has an excellently
developed left hand but the au-
Ithority it assumed in places over
shadowed the right. This was
particularly in evidence in the
lovely "Andante," where it OBJ
scured often the lustrous melodies
While the pianist carefully OBJ
served the musical requirements
of the score in this movement, In
particular, he could not quite in
fuse his tone with the sensitivity
and the emotional warmth needed
for this exquisite instrumental
love song. Yet the darker huee
"Intermezzo" was beautifully ane
Iexpressively played. The fiery
"Scherzo" and the dramatic
Finale" called his best character
Iistics into play.
The special qualities that dis

Rose d'Amore Plays
The first performance locally
of Creston's Fantasy for Piano
and Orchestra" highlighted the
program given by Richard Bales
and the National Gallery Orches-
ira in the National Gallery of Art
last night. 1t was presented by
Rose d'Amore whose pianistic
equipment is of the first order.
Creston's compact Fantasy
surrounds the solo part with an
lexuberant orchestration while
giving to the piano glittering pas
sages of more than ordinary COM
plexities. The instrument is
blended with the ensemble in the
clean-cut. fortnight way, yet its
potentialities are exploited with
true skill. There are few occa-
sions of purely lyric character for
either the orchestra or the soloist
in this vivid, pulsating work
which nevertheless has an in
gratiating quality running through
it. 1t is modern but not dissonant
and its opulence has something
flame-like and fresh.
Miss d'Amore played it deci-
sively. her vibrant tone retaining
its mellowness and her technique,
especially in the octave passages,
fleet and accurate. The orchestra
added brilliant background
which. unfortunately. threatened
at times to overwhelm the solo,
ist in volume. It was, however, a
dramatic performance and Miss
d'Amore was recalled by the en-
thusiasm of the audience several
times.
The inclusion of Schubert S
symphony No. 6 in C major" in
the program was also something
Of novelty, for it is too often
overlooked in orchestral lists. 1t
is happy music, neither very orig
inal nor profound but full of song
and graciousness. 1t matched
well the overture to Mozart's
"Lucio Silla" with which the con-
cert began. Mr.. Bales gave an
other hearing to Wagenaar's
Song of Mourning" of which DR.
Hans Kinder and the National
symphony Orchestra gave the
world premiere in 1914.
