    Large Audience Pleased With
Offering.
INSTRUCTORS TO APPEAR
All Teachers of Music Pledge
To Give Number.
(My Madame Rose McGrow.)
The University school of music or
chestra on Sunday afternoon gave the
first, of a series of concerts to be offer
ed the public throughout the remainder
of the year, and the. large and enthus
iastic audience bore ♦testimony of the
gratitude with which cultural offerings
on the campus are greeted. The hearty
response was ample proof of the deep
appreciation which the two numbers of
this programme awakened.
Each one of the instructors at the
school of music lias pledged him or her
self to appear with a pretentious, good
musical number at one of these concerts.
As the first of these generous ones ap
peared. John Stark Evans, whose beau
tiful musicianship and excellent techni
que assure, him'ns a foregone conclusion
the hearty and grateful response which
was his on Sunday.
_ The work of the orchestra was so good
throughout as to merit great praise.
Those not intimately enough acquainted
or associated with such an organization
cannot amply visualize the difficulties'
connected with the development, individ- j
unlly and collectively of an organization j
of such young people to the plane of ef
ficiency necessary to play musical com
positions of the calibre of this Schumann
Concerto. The work done by each and
every member is commendable. The en
semble work, the spirit of the organiza
tion. accomplish now beautiful things,
and gives promise of wonderful efforts to
come.
Speaking technically, the writer would
like to draw attention to the sustained
theme in the Schumann Concerto. This
swinging rhythm so difficult to sustain,
particularly upon the piano, this theme
recurring in different keys throughout
the concerto, was beautifully sustained
by Mr. Evans and the orchestra. In the
first movement, there occurs an inter
change between piano and orchestra, at
answering, as it were, of the musical
thought, one to the other, and working
up to a strong climax at the close of the
movement.
Ill the intcrmcssito, the lightness of
the touch required stands in strong' eo
fl'gst to the strength and virility of move
ment one. In this movement the good
work of the cellos was distinctly notice
able., those instruments carrying the
theme while the piano weaves about it a
delicate trncer.v of beautiful arpeggios.
The last movement, opens with a daz
zling theme so typical of tho climax, of
most concertos, followed by an elusive
variation of cross themes by the orches
tra and piano where one slip on the
part of either spells certain disaster.
Uotv much praise then is due tlie.se young
people and their couch instructor, .Hex
Underwood, for the tireless energy ex
pended upon the preparatory work.
In the overture, I wish to call special
notice to the good work done by the
brass instruments and to speak once
more of the excellent ensemble work of
♦ he organization. Wo afl look forward
with great pleasure to the next concert.

ganizations on the Oregon campus, ac
cording to Miss Alice Capps, Lane coun
ty chairman of the Near East Relief
committee. The organizations — all
among the University women, incident

A letter was received recently from
the president of Armenia by the Director
| General of the Near East Relief work
expressing the appreciation of the brav
ery of the American men and women re
lief workers who showed so much cour
age and bravery after an attack by tlic
Turks on the Kars front recently. When
the attack was made many of the peace
ful inhabitants <ff Armenia were forced to
flee for safety into the mountains and
lead the life of refugees. A panic re
sulted, and although many of the work
ers had intended sailing for America up-'
on the expiration of their contracts, they
risked their lives staying and caring for
the helpless little tots in the orphan
ages, i
The Armenian people had planted
crops, in the hopes of being able to help
i themselves, but the crops hare prac
tically failed on account of hail and field
mice. The food crisis which was already
critical has been intensified by the num
bers of homeless people who have been
driven into Armenia by the Bolsheviks.
Famine is feared and the oulv hope of
salvation for the thousands of hungry
little ones, their parents, and the other
people of this brave little country lies in
the generosity of the American people.
University students or organizations
wishing to help are asked to communi
