Greyhounds For Rent

Clubs, student groups, ath-
letic teams, and other organ
izations can charter the same
Greyhound buses they see
along the highways, for their
own private use. Going by
chartered Greyhound to
sporting events, field trips,
conventions and on other
group trips affords the op-
portunity to travel together
and have fun together.
Some examples of low round
trip charter rates: New York,
308.80; Pittsburgh, 1920;
Princeton, 226.9O; CharlotteS-
vile, 1920; Williamsburg,
1900. All prices plus tax.

Grand Jeu. Du Mage: Rondo "eoeul
Monique," r Couperin; Ballade,
Soverby; Symphony W. Widor.

GEORGETOWN n Presbyterian
Church resumed its monthly
musical vesper services yester-
day afternoon with a recital by
the church's gifted organist,
William Watkins.
OF special interest among the
three excellent brief works
which opened the program was
Lee Sowerby's Ballade for the
unusual combination of organ
and English horn. In Sowerby's
familiar langorous-gossamer
mood. 1t weS an appealing little
piece in all respects, but espe-
lcially so in it's subtle exploration
of the two instruments relative
tone colors.
Credit for this, of course, is
due DR.. Sowerby only in part.
Mr.. Watkins excellent ear for
balance and registration and
the church's fine Aeolian-Skin-
ner instrument had much to
do with the happy result. The
English horn. richly played by
Edmund Williams, was actually
no more a solo part than sew
eral of the organs voices.
Often it dissolved into the fab
ric of the organs live double
reeds and clear strings, emerg-
ing from time to time in solo
lines Of great beauty, or in
counterpart to other lines Of
the organ.
The afternoons main event
was C. M. Widor's shopworn
sixth symphony. and Mr.. Wat
kins articulated its every line
and f1guration with first-class
technique and brilliant regis
tration. I wish / could say that
such treatment revitalized the
work, but that was not the
case. If anything. the clear
clean light of Mr.. Watkins
mpeccable execution made even
more rough seams visible. The
honest, straightforward per-
formance made it more evident
than ever that the Adagio's i'm
provisatory meanderings are no
substitute for genuine melodic
invention and developmental

Joseph Block brought down
the house at, the National Gal
lery Of Art last night by his
performance of the Hexameron,
a piece of grandiose and bril-
liant clap-trap composed by a
committee of piano athletes of
a century ago.
Mr.. Block, who has taught
piano at the Julliard School
of Music since 1913, also scored
brilliantly with the Six Orna-
mental Etudes by Benjamin
Lees, written in 1857. Another
novelty on the program was
the desperately clever set of
21 tiny pieces by Erik Satie
called Sports et divertisse-
ments." I have no quarrel with
anyone who likes Satie.
Mr., Bloch's bravura, brilliant
and dazzling as it is, was not
quite the answer for the Chopin
polonaise that opened the pro-
gram nor for the intensely ro-
mantle Beethoven sonata "for
the Hammerclavier" opus lO1
mot to be confused with the
enormous one in B flat, opus
1867.
The hammerclavier, by the
way, is nothing other than the
pianoforte. Beethoven was Just
going through a phase Of ex-
treme Identification with Ger
manic matters, and was using
'lebhaft" for "vivace" at the
same period.
My reservations about Mr..
Bloch's performance of these
two pieces largely rest on a
certain fuzziness Of line brought
about by the escape of some
notes from sounding at all,
and the over-emphasis on oc-
casional notes of short time
value. However, he plays ex-
tremely well, and deserves the
critical acclaim that has fol-
lowed him all over the world.

riding Greyhound buses like

more areas, including many
areas not reached by other
public transportation. Grey

In the left arm were two punches
