clarinet quintets of both Mozart

The Brahms quintet, one Of
that masters last works, is a
good piece, but like almost any
composition of Brahms on a pro-
gram containing a work by Mo-
zart, it suffers from the COM
parison. Brahms wrote with
much the same ideal as his goal
that Mozart did, and while one
can admire his care and perse-
verance, the gesture, the melody,
the style, the achievement es-
capped him.
Both the Brahms and Mozart
uuintets were written for clari-
net-playing friends of the re-
spective composers. Stadler was
a brother Free Mason and one
of Mozart's most constant COM
panions in the last years of the
composers life. The quintet, like

Crops Threatened
AS Rainless Days

Critical" conditions face Mont.
gomery County farmers unless
hard rain falls within the next
week.
Extension Agent o. w. Ander.
son said this week that the
drought may approach "the
danger point" within 10 days.
Dried up by the lack of rain
last fall and winter, Montgomery
County pastureland will not give
abundant animal feed if the rain
shortage continues.
DOwnpOur Useless
Heavy rains last week ran off
the pastureland without any
appreciable change, Anderson
pointed out.
Hand-in-hand with the drought
threat is the complication of
pestilence.
Damage sustained by alfalfa
and clover from the spittle bug,
pea aphids and plant lice is re-
ported to be heavier than at any
time in the past five years.
Normally decimated in warm
spring weather, the pea aphid
has multiplied this spring as the
weather remained cool. Many
farmers reduced the damage of
the aphid to legumes by spraying,
but the county's hay crop is still
reported under its usual quality
and quantity.
With the second cutting of
alfalfa scheduled in the June 10
Is period, county farmers were
urged by Mr.. Anderson to lose
no time in applying spray against
plant lice. The recommended

-Underdog Dayton put up an
unexpectedly stiff fight today
before bowling to Tennessee, lat.
The Vols, who entered the
game as prohibitive favorites,
were pushed to the limit to over
come the scrapping Flyers.
Weak kicking proved costly to
the Ohioans, who yielded both
touchdowns to Tennessee after
short out-of- bounds kicks.
The first came midway of the
opening period, when Quarter
back Ken Bockenstette's par
TALLY blocked punt sailed out on
the Flyers 81. Seven plays pro-
duced Tennessee's touchdown,
with Tailback Bobby Brengle,
subbing for Pat Oleksiak, plung-
ing four yards off tackle for the
score. Ed Godzak converted.
Halfback Billy Smith broke of
right tackle and raced across for
Dayton's six-pointer in the third
period to tie the score.
A short kick by Vic Kristo-
paths set the stage for the Vols
winning touchdown. The ball
sailed out on Dayton's As, and
Tennessee capitalized on the
break to score in nine plays,
Oleksiak diving over from the
