' ,*■ Young Texas Piano Player Is Honored Jam Carnegie Hall For Concert Monday NEW YORK (IPI — The lanky Texas youth who made the American public aware he is a phenomenal piano-player by winning a prize in Miscow, had a triumphal musical home-coming in Carnegie Hall Monday night. Today there will be a ticker-tape parade for him up lower Broadway. Harvey La van Van Cliburn, Jr., of Kilgore, Tex., enraptured his American audience by playing the pieces which earned him first place in the Russian competition last month. America’s most-storied music hall was sold out. even to standing room, and at top prices, too. Cliburn was engulfed again and again in storms of applause and was required to play three encores and answer eight “curtain calls." Before his Russian venture, the six-foot-four, 23-ycar-old could no more have filled Carnegie Hall than he could have taken wing. Now the world of music is his oyster. * The audience included Russian diplomats, Cliburn's father and mother, an oiL company purchasing agent and piano teacher respectively. The orchestra was the Symphony of the Air which will accompany Cliburn in the same program in concerts in Philadelphia and Washington. Cliburn’s sudden rise to fame came at the tail-end of the music season, too late for a nationwide tour. That will come next fall and winter. rthßj * A seven pound boy was born Monday morning to Don and Marjorie Linn Scheel in Sheboygan, Wis. Two sisters of the new baby, Linda and Rebecca Scheel, are spending <e few weeks in Decatur with their -maternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Will Linn.
