said, “that this program’will be the means of greatly accelerating the growth and acceptance of ‘the In- . dianapolis Symphony Orchestra as one of the foremost musical organizations in the world.” He said the music appreciation program may move ahead attendance at the orchestra’s concerts as much as five years because, as a result of the distribution of the recordings, many thousands of persons will become interested in fine music.
Famous Works Recorded
As a result of the campaign, thousands of families will have an opportunity to hear the great symphonies repeatedly. By hearing great music over and over again through recordings the listener becomes developed to an amazing degree, committee members say. 3 The symphonies were recorded by the famous orchestras and conductors of today in a spirit of public service. Two stipulations were made by the musicians, all of whom waived profits and royalties on the records. They were that the names of artists could not be exploited for publicity purposes and that the educational recordings be distributed on a non-profit basis and then only through schools, public service bureaus and music associations.

It was announced that departments to undertake the Boys’ State for the first time this year are Kentucky, Connecticut, Florida, Louisiana, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee and Washington. It was reported that in many communities there are alumni organizations of the Boys’ State and that members take an interest in selection of candidates and act as junior sponsors. The number of graduates was given as 45,000.

‘Triangle’ Gives Jean Arthur Exciting Moments in Film

So scenarists, when they must deal with the old triangle situation, simply resort to bigamy. I watched Miss Arthur dealing coolly with her dilemma by tucking both her husbands into twin beds in the same room. (It seemed that Mr."‘MacMurray, long absent, had been thought dead, but that he had turned up shortly after she married his partner, Mr. Douglas.) Miss Arthur made her exit with a cherry good night, and her husbands then began a long and futile game of creepy-sneaky. Each man would crawl out of bed and into the hall and would try to get into his wife’s room. Sometimes they’d encounter each other, but they didn’t reach Miss Arthur. Miss Arthur, the sly-boots, had put her father. Harry Davenport, in her bedroom while she, presumably, had gone. to spend the night at the Y. W. C. A.

|Enthusiastically Received
(tion yesterday afternoon at the
first desk in the Indianapolis Sym-
Music Group | _ Gives 1st of 3 Concerts
By Limited Audience at Clowes Home.
By JAMES THRASHER
The first in a series of three concerts was presented by the new Indianapolis Chamber Music Associa-
home of Dr. and Mrs, G. H. A. Clowes in Golden Hill. An audience that was’ small, be-
heartily enthusiastic heard a program played by Leon Zawisza and Renato Pacini, violins; Jules Salkin, viola; Ernest Friedlander, cellist, and Julio Mazzocca, clarinet. The first two players occupy the.
phony Orchestra’s first violin section, while the other three players also are the principal artists in their respective sections. And to make the symphony orchestra touch complete,- their program was prepared: under the watchful eye of Conductor Fabien Sevitzky.
Novelties Are Included
Two distinet novelties were included in the four works played. One was Peter Warlock’s ‘transcription of the Three-Part Fantasia No. 1. by Purcell (played by Messrs. Zawisza, Salkin and Friedlander), and the other a set of variations for quartet on a Russian. theme, written by 10 composers, likewise Russian. Of the other selections; a Mozart Quartet in F and the Brahms Clarinet Quintet, it would be more accurate to say that they are beloved, rather. than familiar works. For the local opportunities to hear Chamber music are woefully few, and consequently thrice welcome,

their recent coming together, however, the players gave an admirable account of the works before them. A special mention should be made of the Brahms Quintet, for the performance never sacrificed the glowing and inexhaustible beauty to the manifold technical difficulties. And that is proof enough of the players’ sound musicianship and artistic perception. Yesterday's concert, in short, was one of thorough enjoyment. Nor was the enjoyment only of an immediate sort, for it gave promise that a chronic deficiency in our musical diet is or. the way to being remedied. The Chamber Music Association’s next concert is announced for Feb. 18 at the home of Mrs. Lafayette Page, Woodstock Drive.
