Mr. Hoover earlier gave sup
port to the president's appeal for
food saving to cope with famine
abroad and expressed belief it
was possible to meet the need by
voluntary action.

our duties as human beings de

ber of extras thrown in.
Even the more staid local mu
sicians reveled in the bright
rhythms and enjoyed especially
the youth fulness and romance
brought into the-music by Ap
pleton and Field:
AndanU Masterpiece
Probably the masterpiece of the
program was the andante and
variations by Schumann which
was unsurpassed in lovely mel
ody and beauty of interpretation.
Another nice number was a "Toc
cata" written for the two pianists
by Anis Fuleihan.
I personally enjoyed the flam
boyance of the "Grand Concert"
variations by LUzt, though out
voted in favor of the more- spirit
ed offerings by those who know
music better than I. "Flight of
th Bumble Bee," written by
Victor Babin from the Rimsky-
Korsakoff composition was an
other of the fine numbers and
was repeated by request. Their
beautiful interpretation of "Blue
Danube" also drew loud applause
and was partially repeated. Pre
cision in timing was characteris
tic of their playing in both.
Encores Given
Encores were given after just
the right amount of hesitancy
followed instantly by a pleased
acceptance of the audience's ap
peals for more. The pianists were
indeed charming and played in
addition to their regular program
"Minute Waltz" by Chopin, two
preludes by Gershwin, "Jamai
can Rhumba" by Benjamin, and
"Sword Dance" by Khatchatour-
ian.
One could laud the players
through many paragraphs, but lt
is enough to say that they'll be
listed among the topmost in en

the Community Concert associa
tion through the years.

The ladies wrote. Boxes and

From women of every stocking

In a few days, Mrs. Luce's har

had slit open over 5000 . letters,
almost all with one desperate re
frain: "I'm down to my last pair."
