Portland, Or. r' Vtvi -j ii ill 4 V . 1 3 23 , ; ,i BroatefingffomllW Jam J-bSYjeJ-cf FOUR different kinds of solos, violin, piano, soprano and basso profundo, were combined last night in a splendid radio concert broadcast from The Oregonian tow er, and each one of the four artists ! was warmly applauded by radio lis teners. Those who took part were Miss Helen Harper, violinist; Miss Jean Harper, pianist; Mrs. Tin! Suf field, soprano, and O. A. Olson, basso profundo. After several concerts in succession of chorus, group, orches tra and chamber music, a pro gramme consisting entirely of solos proved a happy innovation. The Misses Harper, sisters, proved themselves quite up to the high standards which they had set in previous radio concerts in The Ore gonian tower. Both are extremely talented musicians, just entering professional work, and each has ac quired a splendid professional repu tation. Each played three solos last night. Miss Helen Harper, violinist, assisted at the piano by her sister, played "On the Wings of Song," (Mendelssohn-Achron)', "Hymn to the Sun" (Rimsky-Korsakoff-Kreis-ler) and "Caprice Vennois," from Kreisler's Opus No. 2. Mrs. Tin! Suffield's beautiful so prano voice was still fresh in the memories of radio listeners from her solo work in the Sunday night con cert, when she made her radio debut in The Oregonian studio and simul taneously, achieved a triumph. Her, recent contribution in no way af fected the appreciation of the large audience which heard, her solos. As sisted at the piano by Miss Jean Harper, Mrs. Suffield repeated Mas cheroni's "Ave Maria," a number she or send ROSLEy Mfg. Co. CINCINNATI Christmas Specials !

Olson was the first basso profundo to sing in The Oregonian studio. Mr. Olson has a big, deep voice, full of resonance and well controlled. It is well adapted to broadcasting and his performance last night was declared a success by many listeners who telephoned their appreciation. He was assisted at the piano by Mrs. Warren E. Fitch and sang "In Deisen Heilgen Hollen" (Mozart), "Down Deep Within the Cellar" (Fisher) and "The Big Bass Viol" (Bohannon). The piano solos of Miss Jean Har per were most beautifully rendered and successfully broadcast, proving in each of the three instances a dis tinct feature. Miss Harper played direct io from Liebestraume No. 3" (Liszt), "Jap anese Etude, Opus 21, No. 2" (Pol- dini) and "Chopin" iGodard). . Another plan to provide a divisi- sion of time between amateur and broadcasting stations, for the mu tual benefit of all concerned, has been presented by O. 11. ltedfern, radio inspector of the seventh dis trict, which includes Oregon. This plan, Mr. Kedftrn hopes, will be adopted throughout the entire seventh district, as it offers a num ber of listening periods in addition to a fair division of time for the two classes of radio stations working in the "air." Mr. Redfern's suggestions are as follows: 1. A suitable half hour between 6:30 P. M. ana P. M., to be designated as a quiet period, to- allow long uistance re ception without interference trom local amateurs and broadcasters. i. The time Irum i A. AI. to 7 P. M. daily, to be open tor both amateur and broadcast transmission. 3. Tne time irom 7 P. M. to 10:30 P. M. daily, wltn the. exception of the quiet half nour, to be allotted to the broadcasting stations. 4. There snail be no amateur trans mitting between 7 P. il. and lu:30 P. M. daily in accordance wit It tne recommen dations ot tne American Kadio Kelay league. 0. Suggestion No. 4 shall not apply to C. W. continuous waves transmitters pro viding the signals from these transmit ters cauae no interference with the re ception of tne broadcasts. 0. Amateur stations to be allotted 'the time from 10:80 P. M. to 7 A. M. and no broadcasting to be allowed after 10:30 P. if. Mr. Redfern has asked the .local amateur organizations to vote on his suggestions before the first of .the year. If this plan is adopted throughout the seventh district the quiet periods could be so separated that fans in Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho and Wyoming will all be able to listen in to outside stations. These quiet periods gould be arranged as follows, he suggests: 6:30 P. M. to 7 P. M., quiet In Wash ington. 7 P. M. to 7:30 P. M., quiet In Oregon. 7:20 P. M. to 8 P. M., quiet in Mon tana. 8:30 P. M. to 7 P. M., quiet in Idaho and Wytming. "The perfection of your concert moves me to compliment you on the same," writes E. M. McLachlan of Los Gatos, Cal., of the dance con cert from KGW last Friday evening. "One number, especially, seemed ex cellent, and that was "Forgotten."
