Russian Violinist Will Make Brilliant Appearance at Elsinore on Tuesday Miss Cecilia Hansen, the young Russian violinist who will appear here on Tuesday at the Elsinore theater, has aroused more discus sion than any artist to appear in this country for many years. Miss Hansen was born In a Cossack set tlement and heard her first music from military bands. As a child she showed an intense love for music, and began to play the vio lin at an early age. Her first for mal studies were begun at the Rostov conservatory, and in 1909. she became the: pupil of Prof. Leo pold Auer at the Petrograd con servatory. - He refers o her in his book' of reminiscences', "My Long Life In Music," as one of the most promising students that he ever had. Miss Hansen was graduated in 1914, two of her famous class mates be lag Jascha Heifetz and Toscha Seidel. She was one of the, prize winners in her class and was the youngest women ever to re ceive the gold medal, being then a young girl of not quite 16. .. The World war made it impos sible for her to embark on the continental ' tour "which had been planned for her, and she was com-; pelled to play in Russia for Seve ral years, becoming an idol there. Revolutionary -f condltloas.v xott ever, made It . difficult tor , "the young artist, and in 1921 she,, male a dramatic escape through the fog and rain of the Baltic sea in a flimsy rowboat; 'Her fame, never theless, had reached Continental Europe ahead of her and her suc cess in Finland, Germany, Austria, Czecho-Slovakia and Scandinavia was immediate and unparalleled. Miss Hansen's brilliant Ameri can debut at Carnegie Hall, New York, fulfilled the predictions that she would capture America as she had Europe. In an era of great - - J violinists, this charming and beau tiful young woman, has won fclace amorfg the greatest and her appearance here is a notable event Interesting Screen Contest Will Open Tonight at Oregon Theater Much interest of a sincere sort is expected to attend the Oregon theater screen contest which will formally open tonight.
