HAMMOND While demonstrating an auto truck at high speed, near Crown Point, three prominent men of that place received serious injuries which will cripple them for life when the machine turned over on a curve.

ty commissioner, Harry Claussen, son of Postmaster John Claussen, and Henry Miller, auto man. All were internally Injured and cut.

PUBLIC FINAL CRITIC,;. SAYS ORCHESTRA HEAD In a recent interview with Felix F. Leifels, manager of the New York Philharmonio Orchestra which plays here

at the Coliseum, April 1, under the; auspices of women's club, the inter- j viewer had occasion to compliment the j Philharmonic manager on a collection , of clippings from newspapers all over ; the country. They were the tributes that he pres had paid America's old-! est orchestra wherever the Philharmonic had played. j "Yes," said Mr. Leifels, "we have1 had some remarkably fine notices, but : without, meaning to underestimate the ' value of that sort of criticism, I would trade them all for the practical praise in this." He touched , a smaJl book. "This book," he went on, "contains the figures of attendance at our concerts. It is the criticism oC the public. Last pason 2O1.S04 people held our performances. That is a record. "In New York, the "all sets sold" iscn was displayed more frequently fhari ever before it appeared, in fact at nearly every concert. Now that kinH of criticism means n grrear deal. H means that every individual who l:a. praised the orchestra with what mialit be called the vote of attendance, ha had to pay for the privilege of voting. After all, that is the clearest a.r.d most concrete tribute that can be paid. '"There are thos;e who will say that this public verdict of ap-r-rovp.l is a rather chea.D wa.v of measuring fuo-ce-ss that it implies catering 10 popular taste. The facts of music'

(history prove the contrary. It has I ways been the public that has .-un-nort-Jed genius from the beginning. whJ the scholarly and the erudite were still I in doubt or even fra.nkly hostile."
