PAGE SIX THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON THURSDAY, DECEMBER. 1922 Edited by MISS RUTH AUSTIN Phon 82 ociety Miss Byrd Appears-On Programs Under the caption, "Oregon Artists Succeed In New York Maelstrom," Francis Burke, in a epecial article to the Oregonian. has this to say of Winifred Byrd- It Is astounding how many artists of Oregon origin have won or are striving for success here. One meets them - everywhere There is Winifred Byrd, who comes from Salem. She is a seri ous, attentive figure at ail of the Important concerts when she is in town, looking youthful and ar tistic with a tarn on her bobbed bair and sandals on her feet. Miss Byrd spent the summer near New York, coming in to play the Liszt "Hungarian Rhapsody" with the Philharmonic orchestra under the baton of Willem Van Hoogstrat en, out at the stadium. And, by the way, only those marooned on Manhattan Island in midsummer can know the joyous relief of sit ting in that great half circle un der the moon and stars in the cool of the evening, listening- to great music. Miss Byrd also had a week at the Capital theater, where they have a policy of presenting well known artists for seven day en gagementa. Miss Byrd played the Grieg concerto with the fine Capital orchestra twice a ,day during her week, and she enjoy ed the enthusiasm of a real movie audience. She has a good season ahead, booked for her by Haensel & Jones, and after her appearance December 10 at a musical intlme at Sherry's will not he heard here again until ber recital in March. Miss Byrd's indomitable spirit and her colossal capacity for work have gone far to justify the sobriquet fixed upon her by Hun eker "the little devil of tho keyboard."
