MINOR STREETS WILL SHARE IN WORK PROGRAM Proposed Projects Intended to Benefit Small Home Owners. Small home owners, with property on secondary streets which could not stand assessment for street Improvements, will be benefited by proposed civil works projects of the works board program. Hundreds of resolutions that have been considered by the present board and its successors are being dusted off and new investigations made as to their advisability. Works board members, Walter C. Boetcher, Charles O Britten and Louis C. Brandt, have worked out sixty-four different projects which will entail a pay roll of more than $1,000,000 for civil works men. Grading Proposed One of the largest projects in the grading, berming and ditching of scores of the secondary streets throughout the city. If passible many of these streets, following the grading and general Improvement, will be paved with gravel and a tarvia top. This series of projects and flood prevention project, from East New York street north along the east bank of White river and the south bank of White river to Indiana avenue, and the sister flood prevention project, that of improving the dike in Warfleigh, will keep the major portion of the 10,500 men to be absorbed, busy for three months. Improvement of Tomlinson hall started today under the supervision of Mr. Brandt and William Hurd, building commissioner. The four towers of the hall will be removed, and the fire hazard reduced by the installation of a sprinkler system. Street Projects Listed.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SCHNABEL GIVES BRILLIANT PIANO HERE Famed Musician Plays Two Hours of Beethoven and Shines. For a little more than two hours 1 yesterday Arthur Schnabel played Beethoven for one of the largest | audiences that the Indianapolis | Maennerchor has had at the Academy of Music. I think I am safe in saying that i this concert was the heaviest two hours of piano music I ever encountered in my life. Mr. Schnabel’s playing left me so completely satisfied of witnessing perfect playing of Beethoven that I was bewildered for about two hours afler I left the academy. I wasn't the only one so affected because several people, hours after the concert, expressed the opinion they still were bewildered by Mr. Schnabel’s wonderful playing.

Authority on Beethoven This authority of Beethoven, who not only loves but understands every problem of Beethoven, played five sonatas and after this lengthy and genius-demanding exhibition seemed as fresh and as eager at the close of his concert as when he! walked to the piano at the beginning of his concert. Schnabel well might be c’cccribed as the outstanding emotional player of Beethoven. Coior would mount to his cheeks, as he approached certain difficult' passages which demanded marvelous technical expression. Tone Is Impressive So impressive was the tone produced by Mr. Schnabel that I wanted to close my eyes. Os all the great playing. I think he was supreme in “Sonata in E Minor, Op. 90.” Many teachers and students of music in the audience carried complete Beethoven scores and silently read them as Schnabel played. That is something seldom seen in Indianapolis. The Indianapolis Maennerchor yesterday presented one of the world's most interesting pianists and one who will be discussed and and highly remembered when Beethoven is considered. (—By Walter D. Hickman.)
