In Closing Summer Concert

oN TASTE TREAT FOR SUMMER! See and taste the goodness of Star-Kist in your summer menus! The tender texture and finer flavor prove the difference in tuna... because only the small, better-flavored tuna are packed under the Star-Kist quality label.

A DIFFERENCE IN TUNA

An audience of more than 4000 gave Fabjen Sevitzky and the first Indianapolis summer symphony a

‘Irousing farewell’ at Butler Bowl ..|1ast night, 3 The size of the crowd -- second largest of the summer symphony audiences and 300 ‘more than the biggest attendance for Olsen and Johnson—was a tribute to Dr. Seviteky and to his admirable soloist, Pianist William Kapell. In pre-intermission comments, Harry V. Wade, executive vicechairman of the centennial commission, and Dr. Sevitzky both expressed hope that the summer music season would® continue. Dr.

on the quality of the orchestra. With the Indianapolis Symphony orchestra full strength, we ‘can have bigger and better Gershwin, Romberg, Verdi, Wagner or Tchalkovsky., Dr, Bevitzky's own transcription of Cole Porter's "Night and Day” sounds more impressive with the winter orchestra than it did with the smaller summer ensemble, A visiting fireman from Dallas, Tex, gave me his opinion last night. It was John Rosenfield, amusements editor of the Dallas (Morning News, who is touring cities that have summer music programs. Mr, Rosenfield thinks the Butler ‘Bowl sétting is admirable, “For a first season, your orchestra is remarkably fine,” he said. Bit of Friendly Rivalry Both publicity and private testimony indicate that Dallas, a shade larger than Indianapolis, is lively and progressive. They haven't {started a summer season yet, al-

| symphony season, In a spirit of { friendly rivalry, let's keep the lead we've gained. Dr, Sevitzky heaped the Bowl with his favorite Tchaikovsky last night, opening with the “Marche Slave,” continuing with the polo|naise and waltz from “Eugene Onegin,” the andante from the Fifth symphony, a “Waltz of the Flowers” from the “Nutcracker” suite substitution’ for the programmed “String Serenade” walt and the “Caprice Italien.” After intermission, Mr, Kapell dug strong, sensitive and agile fin{gers into the keyboard in Rach{maninoft’'s Second concerto. Mr, Kapell is developing his great talent year by year. He gives’ an almost | perfect fllustration of music as | process. Music doesn’t stand still, like a bronze statue of Millard Fill{more, It's active, even bothersome-— especially to the musician, Likened to Golfer For the musician has to look back at each performance like a golfplayer or a trolley-bus driver. “I did it in par,” he may say, “but |others have done it better.” Praise may be gratifying, but it's irrelevant. No critic could tell Willlam Kapell just, what he did and why he did it with Rachmaninoff's musical revelation of personal tragedy. Nor could any critic have told the late great Sergei himself why he wrote what he did—or why he played as he did, which subject would fl | another column with pointless guesses, The best thing I can think of to say to Willlam Kapell is that Rach-

maninoff would certainly have applauded Jast night's performance of the concerto. Conclude With Overture As an encore, in place of the orchestra’s programmed transcription of Rachmaninoft's C sharp minor prelude, Mr. Kapell played Liszt's “Petrarch’s Sonnets.” Not too often heard, it's an example ‘of Liszt at his best.

V.F. W. Asks Farm Of Mrs. Roosevelt

GREENVILLE, Tenn. Aug. 14 (U, P.).—A group of war veterans suggested today that Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt turn over the farm willed to her by a 71-year-old bachelor preacher to a Tennessee veteran who lost his sight in the battle of the bulge. 2 , Attorney James N. Hardin, state commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars disclosed that he had

(sent a telegram to Mrs. Roosevelt

in behalf of the Andrew Johnson post. Mr. Hardin said that the veteran,

identified as Howard Turner, had
