HIGH "A" ORCHESTRA PRESENTED ROUSING

OVATION AT PORTLAND Nearly 2,000 people turned out to hear the high school "A" orchestra wheu It played at Portland. Friday. Capacity audiences filled the opera house at both the afternoon and evening performances. The ovation and reception accorded the aggregation was such as is. rarely extended even to the most distinguished professional symphony bodies. Rounds upon rounds of applause were given Conductor J. E. Maddy and his symphony. Between $75 and $100 was realized by the orchestra from the Portland concerts, it was reported Saturday. The concerts were given under the auspices of the Portland Public schools. Hundreds of Portland school children thronged the opera house in the afternoon when the young people's concert was presented. This program is an innovation recently introduced by Coductor Maddy, the purpose being to acquaint the children with the suctions and instruments of an orchestra. Solos were played on each Instrument and each choir played one number. In the second part of the program the entire orchestra played. The harp, which was recently added to the orchestra to complete its symphonic instrumentation, was demonstrated by Miss Juliet Nusbaum, assistant musical supervisor. She also accompanied the orchestra in some of its numbers at both concerts. Audience Held Spellbound. The- adult audience of between 800 and 1,000 persons that filled the house at the evening concert was held in spellbound attention. Amazement was written on the faces in the audience at . the brilliant rendition of the difficult compositions which the young players gave. Some said it was incredulous and only hearing was believing. The demonstration of high school development in orchestral en semble which the local musicians gave was an impressive or- to Portlandites. The evening program included the following numbers, all of which have been played here by the orchestra this season: 1. March from "Tannhauser," (Richard Wagner). 2.0verture to "William Tell," (Rossini). 3. Unfinished symphony, (Schubert), allegro Moderato, antante con moto. 4. a. Salut D' Amour. (Elgar); b, Air tor the G string, (Bach); c. Valse Triste. (Sibellius); d, Liebeslied, (Kreisler). 5. Carman, Suite No. 2 (Bizet); I, March of the Smugglers; II, Habanera; 111, Nocturne; IV, Toreador's Song; V, Guard Mount; VI, Danse Boheme. 6. March e Slav, (Tschaikowsky). The Carmen suite was one of the most, popular groups on the program and followed, as it was by the stirring March e Slav" formed a brilliant climax to the concert.

WEEK TO DETERMINE LEGISLATION RESULT The next week or 10 days will see the passage or defeat of most of the lef islation which is of especial interest to he public, said Denver Harlan, state senator, Saturday, reporting on the past week's activities of the legislature. Little of .jmporance was accomplished the past week, most of the time being taken up with hearings arid with routine business, he said. The adjusted compensation bill is still in the lower house. Memorial day observance legislation lias attracted the most attention the past week. In auto license fee regulation, bills have been introduced in both houses providing for increased license fees and for placing busses and commercial truck lines under the public service commission. "I think there is no doubt the license fee will be raised," said Sen. Harlan. "The opponents of the gasoline tax are supporting the increase as a substitute for the other tax, claiming that it will require no additional force for collection. "The county school unit legislation was up for public hearing Friday night and met with a warm reception, advocates and opponents being equally partisan in their attitudes." Few bills have yet got beyond second reading, states Representative James Knapp of Hagerstown. "We can not get down to real business jtntil bills have passed third reading and are ready for consideration. So far tinly a few bills of minor importance have gone through. Italy has a merchant marine of 808 steamers.

CONTROVERSIES ARISE

mil DECORATION DAY

DESECRATION MEASURE INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 27. Controversies over the attitude that should be taken toward the bill pending in the Indiana general assembly to prevent the desecration of Memorial day were being carried on today with some heat by the American Legion and the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. Perry Faulkner, commander of the Indiana department of the Legion, revoked the charter of the Skidmore Dean post of Indianapolis for its action in adopting a resolution opposing the bill, and demanded a public retraction of the resolution by the post executive committee. Members of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce were reported to have objected to the efforts of its officers to have the bill killed. Is Legion Measure Mr. Faulkner declared that the Memorial day bill was sanctioned by the legion in the last state convention held at Terre Haute. When the bill was introduced by Sen. Moorehead of Indianapolis he explained that it was the "American Legion's bill." The measure has passed the senate and is awaiting second reading in the house, a favorable committee report beKof commerce has- been interested in the bill, because it3 passage would prevent the holding of the Memorial Day race at the Indianapolis Speedway this year. Officials are said to have joined the lobby against the bill while members of the organization are favoring it. A vote on the bill is anticipated during the coming week.
