SINCERE ARTIST
Br Jeunesse Butler
Jom Echanlz, pianist, presented In
concert February 1 at the nigh scnooi
auditorium by the Southern Oregon
Civic Music association:
Just why the performance of a
fiery young Spaniard of the moat
modern school should remind one of
a snowflake, and why memories of
another concert pianist, a German
and world-famous for many years,
should drift across one's vision dur
ing that performance, may require
considerable explanation. That ex
planation then, may be found In re
calling the clarity, crlspness and
crystal-bright purity of Echanlz's
technic, the precision of his phras
ing, the sanity of his Interpretations
and the sincerity and modesty of the
man himself. By this time, the read
er probably has identified the more
seasoned artist one Josef Hoffman.
Hoffman was the first departure
from the long-accepted type of con
cert pianist long of hair, full of
mannerisms, evoking an almost hyp
notic, certainly silly, hero-worship,
stage tricks which the artists them
telves may nem nave enjoyed, but
which their teachers, managers and
the publlo taught them to utilize.
Josef Hoffman walked onto the stage,
minus the mane, sat down to his in
strument and played in a business
like manner, wnicn lost none of its
distinction and display of mastery
thereby. Thus does the Likeable
Jose conduct .himself.
Vital, dominating (in the better
sense), masterly, is the young Latin,
with a 'strong sense of rhythm, which
Is Indeed the outstanding character
istic of his work. One waited In
vain for the delicately poetic, the
myBtlc, the wistful. It did not come.
Even the familiar "Butterfly Etude"
of Chopin, given as an encore, gave
the audience a determined spring'
butterfly, winging sprightly over a
bed of marigolds, rather than a
lightly hovering creature near mid
summer roses. The snowflake de
alkn again In the photographs one
sometimes sees.
Mr. Echanlz gives one release cer
tainly, but his listeners float not
away on day dreams. Rather, he
wakes them up, brings them "up on
the toes" and sends them marching
blithely along toward better things.
Another artist once remarked that
,his audience, not himself, gave the
concert, and the writer for one, was
proud of last night's audience. It
was a real "Medford" audience of the
"good old days," utterly quiet, in
stantly responsive and heartily appre
ciative. And the modest and gener
ous Echanlz appeared much pleased,
smilingly giving three encores after :
the last number on the program, i
which was as follows: I

RECORD OF YEARS
A queer condition exists In the Cra
ter Lake National park, according to
Chief Ranger Dave Canfleld, who ar
rived in Medford last night after a
trip of eight miles on skis from the
east boundary to Fort Klamath.
Canfleld said that more snow fell
during January than in any January
since the park service started keeping
complete records.
The more It snows, the less enow
there Is on the ground, Canfleld said.
During the past four daya the .depth
has decreased to 141 Inches, and seve
ral feet of snow fell. The decrease
Is due to the packing, caused by
damp, heavy snow. During the en
tire month 256 Inches of snow fell,
and the depth of snow on the ground
was Increased only SI Inches, or from
90 Inches to 141 Inches. v
Snow fell on all but seven days of
the month of January, and 162 Inches
fell In the last 10 days of the month.
The depth on the ground was In
creased only 39 Inches by the 162-
lnch fall since the 20th.
Nothing except the peaks of the
buildings at government camp re
main above the snow, according to
pictures brought down by Canfleld,
and February is expected to add more
snow to the total than January did
