Miss Harrison is so delighted
with the big sound she is able
to coax from a grand piano that
she keeps the sustaining pedal
down throughout almost every
thing she plays. This procedure
does not help her achieve an
orthodox performance of Bach,
but no matter, for such ortho-
doxy is far from her desires. Her
aim is a free realization of the
Busoni transcription of the IA
nous chaconne for unaccom-

fected by melodic, rhythmic ano
dynamic waywardness that mir
rors her own abandonment te

had its strong points and its
weaknesses. The former were the
results of good musical feeling;
the latter. of inexperience.
The Bach was rhythmically
weak. The organ is one Of the
most difficult instruments to
play rhythmically. since the
Surest way to establish a good
rhythm or meter is by accent,
a basic musical device which is
impossible on the organ. Players
of few if any other instruments
are deprived of the onward
moving force of accent. On the
organ meter and rhythm are
achieved in other ways-by the
shortening and .lengthening of
notes and by changes of dy-
namics. The ability to play
rhythmically is the touchstone
of the accomplished organist.
Miss Allen need not be. too
discouraged that she has not
yet acquired this ability, for in
other ways her playing was
good. The tone-color and the
many-mooded reveries of the
Franck chorale showed an in
stinctive feeling for the re-
sources of the instrument. The
deftness and French precision
of the Clerambault made the lit
tie trumpet voluntary a delight.
Bruce Simonds, pianist. for
years professor of music history
at Yale. and later dean of the
Yale School of Music, has been
for three decades one of the
most popular long hair musicians
on the Yale campus. A college
Bierabend has only to have the
small. red-haired musician on
hand to play three or four
Beethoven sonatas to be a GER
tain success. Few undergrad
yates know Mr.. Simonds as a
composer. The piece played yes

effective composition based on
Gregorian melodies.
Great credit is due Miss Allen
for her ambitious program. The
variety of technique and musi-
cal insight required for six pieces
written over span of more than
two hundred years is something
that can only be fully possessed
by the mature musician.

By r. BOSLEY
By DON r. BOSLEY

Montana wheat is good for the simple
reason that it makes good bread That's the
ultimate test of any wheat, but it is by no
means simple. In fact it is extremely COM
pick. Protein content is only one of many
measures of a good bread wheat and Mon
tana wheat meets more of these measures
than most
Because the qualities that make for a
good bread wheat are so complex, milling
companies maintain large laboratories to
test all shipments of wheat before they make
them into flour. How extensive these tests
are is indicated by the analysis on this page
comparing the qualities of variety of win
ter wheat known as Silver Tip with those
OF a standard or approved variety of winter
wheat.
The comparative analysis was made by
the laboratory of Montana milling com
pany AS result of the analysis, the labora-
tory reported these conclusions:
''This sample of the variety Silver Tin
IS definitely inferior to our standard Mon
tana winter wheat. We have been unable to
trace It's origin. 1t was raised by group of
farmers near .Danvers and apparently was
brought IN from Canada This variety has
the appearance and some characteristics of
Red Fife If this sample was a true. repre-
sentative of this variety, we certainly want
TO discourage its planting and the possibility
OF It's getting mixed please turn to naoe 81

WHAT is good wheat?

NTHAT is good wheat?
w Simplest answer to that IS: It's the
kind of wheat we produce in Montana. It's
so good that it commands a substantial cash
premium over other wheats.
And what's good about it? Well, it's usu-
ally high in protein and the premium prices
are paid on the basis of protein content In
fact these premiums alone probably added
not less than $26,0OO,O0O to the value of
Montana's record 1858 wheat crop of more
than 114,0O0,000 bushels. And 1868 wasn't
an unusual year for protein either Spring
wheat averaged about 14.6 per cent and
winter wheat 12.5 per cent. That's good but
by no means record In 1947 the spring
wheat averaged 16 per cent and the winter
wheat IA per cent.
But important and valuable as protein
is, it isn't the only reason why Montana
wheat IS good. In fact it is quite possible
for wheat that is high in protein to be
inferior in quality to one that is lower in
protein.

the Negroes somewhat less pre-

probably will not be fired first
