Several unusually interesting features have been planned by Edouard Hurlimann, director of the Salem Philharmonic orchestra, for the second year's concert which is being given by the mu sical organization on January SO at the Salem high school. Of all the numbers to be played, there is none of more vital inter est that Sibelius' "Finlandla" in which we hear not only the national air of the Fl: is, but the echoes of the longing for the calm joys of freedom and a hope for happiness across a nation's sor rows. Not only is "Finlandla" one of the world's most beloved compo sitions, but its playing is especial ly apropos, now that all eyes are turned to this heroic country. Finland is 37 per cent forest and 11 per cent lakes, yet she has always stressed the educaticn of her people and has been proud of distinctive achievements within the country, especially along cul tural lines. Of all the sons of Finland, 74-year-old Jean Sibelius Is the one who will be remembered longest. His father was an army sur geon, his mother the daughter of a clergyman. At the age of nine, Jean Sibelius began piano study and the study of violin at 15. He has been a prolific composer, with works ranging from symphonies, piano numbers, cantatas to com positions for small orchestras and tone poems. He wrote one opera. Sibelius visited in the United States in 1916 and was awarded an honorary degree of Doctor of Music at Yale university. Beside this great work, the or chestra will play "Carillon" by Felix French, young Salem 'cellist In the Philharmonic group. This is the first time the orchestra has played a composition by a local composer. Another feature of interest Is the quartet which will play Mo zart's quartet in F major for oboe and strings. Vernon Wiscarson will play the oboe, Edouard Hur limann the violin, Mary Headrick Talmadge the viola and Bernard Barron the 'cello. Other solo features is the pro gram will be given by members of the regular orchestra. Sponsor Concert The Salem high school band will sponsor an appearance of the University of Oregon concert band at the high school auditorium on February 6 for the benefit of the uniform fund. The university band, of 60 pieces, considered one of the finest concert groups on the coast, is under the direction of John H. Stehn. There are 70 in the Salem high school band and only 64 uniforms have been purchased thus far. Band members from Silverton, Canby and Dallas are expected to attend. Pianist Coming Dalies Frantr, brilliant young American pianist with an amazing record of success to his credit, will be heard here Wednesday, Feb ruary 7, in the high school audi torium under the sponsorship of the Salem Community Concert as sociation. Frantz has brilliant talent, musicianship, prodigious tech nique and keen Intelligence. Avail ing himself of the free advantages offered in America for public ap pearance, he entered a contest for a solo appearance with the De troit Symphony orchestra and won. Aiming at a New York de but recital, he entered the Naum b e r g Foundation competition against 100 entrants and won again. When the National Federation of Music Clubs combined with the Schubert Memorial in offering a prize carrying with it appearances as soloist with a major orchestra, the competition was nationwide; Frantz entered it and won, ap pearing first in Philadelphia, then in New York as soloist with the Philadelphia orchestra, Leopold Stokowski, conducting. At present he is in Hollywood working in a new picture in which "he doesn't even play the piano." He will be seen In the film "Balla laika" which will be shown at a local theatre this coming Thurs day, January 25, but does play the piano in this film.

AAUW. Guest Tells About Germany Another excellent speaker can be credited to the year's program committee for the American As sociation of University Women who met on Saturday noon at the Marion hotel. Mrs. Alexander Levy, wife of a Jewish surgeoft. of Portland, told of her exper iences in Germany and about con ditions there. In talking about life in Ger many, Mrs. Levy said "Stories of Germany are not exaggerated, there are many things that you will never hear about." Mrs. Levy was married in 1934, and although an Aryan, im mediately felt the danger to her self and her Jewish husband. All professional life was soon closed to the Jews and her husband as associate head of a large hospital in Berlin was discharged. Because of the influence of his family he was allowed to open private prac tice, for Jews only. Her 13-year-old son by a pre vious marriage, like all other children, belonged to the Youth corps and it soon became appar ent that the constant teachings of the nazis were making an in road In his mind against the Jews. The family came to America after a year of seemingly vain efforts, knowing no English and with only household goods and medical supplies. They arrived less than two years ago in Port land. "It was like being rescued from drowning," the speaker said. "We found the Americans a friendly, loyal people, although in Germany we were made to think them all movie actors or gangsters. "We know democracy as a fact and realize its advantages more than you Americans." In discussing conditions in the country she said that during and since the World war Germans were so miserable that when an offer of salvation came from Hit ler, they grasped at his plans as a ray of hope. "There are still good forces In Germany," she said, "the church still has Influence, however sup pressed. Influence of and belief in Hitlerism comes because the people must believe and absorb the teachings or break under the strain of opposing it." "Germany cannot fight a war, she is too poor," the speaker said. "You talk of strikes and other troubles here, why German work ers are slaves, they are too poor to strlkel" lanuary Dinner Of BPW Club The January dinner meeting of the Business and Professional Women's club will be held at the Golden Pheasant on Tuesday at :30 o'clock.
