Rumanian Artist To Give Concert Saturday Night Critics Praise Tone and Interpretation of .Violinist Georges Enesco, flip versatile Rumanian artist vho appears |in concert on tlie A. S. IT. O. scries .Sat urday evening at eight in the Wo man’s building, enjoys the distinc tion of being a. conductor and com poser ns veil ns a master violinist. Enesco’s playing is characterized by a purity of tone, a musicinnly reserve in his manner, and a poetic interpretation that makes every selection seem like a message from the composer. Enesco, who is today one of the outstanding musicians of his native Rumania, showed signs of his genius at an early age. Even at four he begged his father for a violin until in desperation he bought him one. “Bah—a toy with three strings,” says Enesco in speaking of the in cident, “which I threw into the fire in a rage of disappointment.” Later he was given a small violin, a real one this time. “As soon as I. could hold the bow,” he remarked to an inter viewer, “I began to play and I have played ever since.” Then; with an expressive gesture of his hands, lie said, “I love it more and more.” The violin which Enesco is using on his present tour comes from the workship of Pierre Hel, to whom famous violinists now. travel, as their predecessors did, to the work shops of Cremona. The violin is of large dimensions and at the same time has a purity and sweetness that is brought forth under the marvel lous bowings of its owner. Enesco has played this instrument for four years. The. program here Saturday eve ning has been chosen from among three submitted and will include the following numbers: Sonata in D Major (Nardani). Adagio. Allegro Con fuoco. Larghetto. Allegretto graziosa. roemc (Chausson). Polios d’Esagno (Corelli). Introduction and Rondo Cnpric eiosa (Saint-Saens). Zigeuncrweisen (Sarasate). Enesco will bo accompanied by Sanford SclilussPl. The versatile violinist himself is an excellent pianist and has had records made of his piano playing, lie also plays the organ and ’cello. Students will bo admitted on their student body tickets. Others may purchase theirs at the Co-Op, or the A. S. U. O. office. Hindus (Continued from ]>age one) to dry up religion by turning the youunger generation away from it aml the belief in God. It docs net employ persecution—not a single person have I hoard complain of this—but it uses atheistic propa ganda. “And it is my firm belief that in one generation from now, Russia, tlio largest white nation in the world, will be entirely ntheistie!” Marriage Necessary In explanation of the family life, Mr. Hindus declared that life in ■Russian without, marriage today was futile. If one has not, been tied by the domestic hunt, so to speak, he is a phenomenon and a freak. He is a Russian no longer. Woman has been placed on an equal status with those of the opposite sex in regard to legal domestic privileges, either morally or legally. If a man mar ries, and there is a child and lie does not livens a married man, then lie must pay alimony of ono tldrd of iiis earnings. If more than one child, one-half, and if no child ren and the woman is sick, one third. Divorce can be got for no more than five cents, be said, but marriage can be got for nothing. But wo men still do the major part of the work as they always did among the peasant population. And families are still as large ns they always were. The way the Russian peasantry live and the conditions of their homos were outlined by the speaker. Patriotism Meaningless Concerning the effect of the iso lation and “underdog treatment of the peasantry,” Mr. Hindus said, “the Russian peasant has no politi cal consciousness, no patriotism. IIow could lie have? What does he know about patriotism and nation alism? He only knows that he. needs land and believes the landlords are the direct cause of the shortage. “Yon couldn’t blame the peas ants, when, after fighting at the beginning of the World war, they began by deserting by the tens of thousands and turned to hunting landlords. The landlords were ene mies of them, not the Germans. And at that time it was an open season for landlords all the year. “Lf the peasants had been let act by themselves at the time of the great Russian revolution, the pres ent union would have been instead a heterogeneous conglomeration of as many states as there were vil lages.” The bolslievist government lias been cold-blooded in getting rid of its enemies or near enemies, the speaker said. Anyone standing in the way of the bolsheviki will not stand there long.Nevertheless, lie pointed opt, it is doing an enormous amount of good in teaching the peas antry fundamentals of living, such as domestic hygiene and other ne cessary requirements of a virile peo ple. “Holslievism stripped of all com plications is government ownership of everything through government the speaker. “The revolution has shown the peasant how to articulate and has opened his iniind,” ho declared. “And the future of Russia belongs to the peasant. Eventually he will pull the country up to a higher stat us and I believe he will do it soon.” Mr. Hindus was introduced by Professor Walter Barnes, himself a student of Russia.
