Georges Enesco [Wins Admiration Of His Audience Sincere Interpretation and Brilliant Teclinie Merit Many Eneores A Inf'll degree nf artistry in musi frnl interpretation anil a dignified simplicity of manners ivon Hie ad miration of tlie audience, which heard Georges Eneseo, Roumanian violinist, play Saturday evening. The opening Adagio movement of the formal classical Sonata by Nar dani was played with a certain re served fervor and with fine tone. J2vcn the contrasts, while notice able, were not sharp. The second movement, the Allegro con fuoeo, gave some indication of the vibrant force and pathos that Eneseo can produce in the sine number. In the Larghetto Eneseo'g purity of tone, which has been commented upon by the leading clitics of America, was an outstanding feature. The Alle gretto Graziosa was transformed under Enesco’s changes of tempo and coloring from a mere dance rhythm to a study in mood without losing any of ils graceful daintiness. Number Difficult One of the most difficult numbers on tho program both from the stand- j Jioiilt of interpretation and tech- ! niquo was the Ohausson Poome. Mar- I vollous bowing and double stopping' combined with the working up of ! climaxes and the ngitated passages j wore followed by a tranquil mood and the superb harmonic trilling of the finale. The piano accompani ment as played by Sanford Schlus sol contributed to the favor this number found, by ils careful co incidence with the moods of the soloist. Enesco’s encores, Kreisler ar rangements, contained delicately ex ecuted light passages and were played with simple sincerity. xccnmque .DLsprayea Tlic two succeeding numbers, Sor elli’s “Follies D’Esagnc” and “In troduction and Hondo Capriccioso” by Saint-Saons called forth the technical brilliance of the artist, but it was never at any time forced upon the listeners. In Corelli’s number a reserved opening in deli cate tones led to soft double stop ping and an agitated presentation of the theme. In the Hondo Capricci oso it would bo difficult to state whether it was the brilliant runs, rich harmonics, bouncing bow of the execution or the clean cut exuber ance of the dance rhythm contrast ed with the sadder‘passages that brought forth the applause that fol lowed. I'lnesco responded with a muted number, Fame’s “Berceuse,” that called by its delicate pianissimo for a second encore. “Zigeunerweisen” Played The “Zigeunerweisen” was char acterized by a bravado of the opening passage, which ended with a climactic stroke of the bow. From the muted passage an abrupt change was made to the rapid brilliant bow ing and lingering that followed. Harmonics played in a sparkling, bravura style and piguant pizzicatos were followed by applause that brought two encores to the final number, including the familiar “Largo” from the New World Sym phony. At. the close of the program Hues co was given a hearty ovation by the audience. Washington Athletes Unable To Get Awards UNIVERSITY OF WASHING-, TON, Jan. 10.—(P.T.P.)— How lb ; varsity football players were tem porarily deprived of their W sweat ers by the board of control, was re vealed at last night’s session of the board when minutes of the pre vious meeting of December Hi were read, disclosing a qualification which stated that sweaters be awarded to certain members of the team “only after they have paid the small bal ance duo on training bills.” The “balance due,” as previously explained by the graduate manager, was $50.40 at the lust day of the fall quarter, or the equivalent of . about one day’s training bill for the 15 players. Two Classes Combine To Study Troubadours That apparently unrelated depart ments of the University may find topies of common interest was dem onstrated Thursday afternoon when one of the poetry classes of Profes sor Stevenson Smith and Mrs. Anna Landsbury Beck’s class in history ami appreciation of music, combined Dance Programs Our Specialty Every Job Unique in Design and Materials Zoller Printing Co “Printing of the Better Kind!” 72 E, Broadway Phone 223 ’ for a. class hour in thr» music nudi tnrinm.

Harrison is singles titlist of Ore gon, Washington and California, and with Lockwood his doubles partner, holds the doubles titles of the same districts. During the last few days of play on the indoor court Lock wood seems to have the edge ok his partner and much good tennis will be tho outcome of the exhibi tion Saturday night. The tennis ball, ever a lively crea ture, takes on the attributes of greased lightning on the maple court. Coach Abercrombie promises tennis fans the fastest game of ten nis they ever saw. This will lie the first Of indoor exhibitions, but not the last. Har rison and-Lockwood will meet Henry Noqi' and Stanley Almquist in dou bles after some other basketball game. Doubles tennis on an indoor court is faster than singles, and Coach Abercrombie is letting his men become more acclimated to the fast court before sending tlie.m before the public in doubles.

Commerce high, the victim of the initial fresh man contest, was never dangerous after the first minute of "playing last Saturday afternoon in McArthur court. Prom the point of team play, the frosh squad did not show to advan tage. Bad passes and fumbles were numerous. Despite this ragged and erratic exhibition, the freshmen show promise. On the duckling squad, Coach Leslie has a number of excellent basketball players, which, with more experience and drill, should he moulded into an ef fective quintet. In Saturday’s game the yearlings showed more strength in their live man defense than they evidenced when they came into possession of the ball on offense. Most of the Commerco points were scored on long throws, the babes holding the invading preppers away from close range shots and cripples. The yearlings opened the game with Archer and Stoddard at for wards; Eberhart, center; Horner and Olinger, guards. Leslie shifted Dvorak from pivot to forward, where ho alternated during the game. He seems better on defense than Stod dard, but the latter is adopt at slipping in under the basket for cripples. Olinger was high point seorer with 10 markers. Stoddard came next with eight. Tittman, Andrews, Cal kins, Walgren, Will, and Yerkovitcli were some of the duckling cagers who got in against the Portland preppers before the final gun. Nicaraguans and U. S.

He is just an ordinary young man as everyone must know.” Thus was the case of William Ed ward Hickman, confessed kidnaper and slayer, summarized by Gordon S.
