WERNER The final concert of the Civic Music series was pre sented last night in the high school auditorium to a less than full membership. Those who did not attend, missed a most enjoyable evening of musical entertainment. Robert Rudie and his erouD of musicians and singers of fered good music, well played and bouvantlv Dresented. j Opening with "Symphony No. 114" by Haydn, it was soon I apparent that here were really qualified musicians under able direction. Of particular competence and skill were the horn players. These two young men demonstrated such a command over their instru ments, especially in the ex tremely high registers de manded by Haydn, that 'it seemed almost incredible. The violins, two firsts and two seconds, performed the dif ficult task of being perfectly in tune. This may seem to be what should be expected, but intonation on a string-bowed instrument is a constant prob lem and in a large group of players, a composite is pro jected which the ear readily accepts. But when two players play the same part, any devi ation is at once apparent. Both first and second violins last night were never guilty of any deviation. The viola, cello and bass were noteworthy for their smooth tone, plus warmth. These people like to play. Also most excellent were the flute and clarinet. Even Qual ity of tone was achieved by both over the whole register. The star of the Sinfonietta was the harpist, Cynthia Otis. Brilliant technique and nu ance control were evident throughout. Her playing of the "Introduction and Alle'e- ro by Ravel was the high spot of the program. In a scene from Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro." Phvllis Williams, soprano, and Robert Kirkham, baritone, were heard. By verbal explanation before and during the scene an attempt was made toward conesion, but it didn t ouite come off. The music, always melodic and scintillating," was not enhanced by the singing. Miss Williams has a restricted range and seldom could be heard in the lower register. Mr. Kirkham had the same shortcoming, but the soprano had more warmth and quality, whereas the baritone bor dered on the brassy. They did better in the Rogers and Music For Mother by . . .

After intermission Mr. Ru die made a change in the pro gram and combined his own solo violin playing with Miss Otis solo playing with a work by Saint Saens. Very pleasant music. The programmed "Gypsy Airs" by Sarasate, Mr. Rudie did at the end of the concert as an encore. Before playing Strauss' "Blue Danube" waltz, the conductor invited members of the audience to dance, and one couple very bravely did so. He explained that it was the very first time it had ever occurred, which was verified by several of the orchestra members later. The Sinfonietta was an en joyable musical offering of entertainment and good show manship a fitting close to a good series season. Sorry you weren't there!

German Twin Sisters From Poland Back Together After 13 Years Apart C-li T i fii ith n-i I i - Salt Lake City irjt Two German twin sisters, sepa rated 13 years ago in war ravaged Poland, were headed for a reunion Saturday thanks to the observant eye of a San Francisco newspaper reader. Friday night, Mrs. Alexan dra Agah Wegner and her sis ter (Za Za) Sauer were brought todgether by long distance telephone, the first contact they have had since Sophie became separated from the rest of her family in Po land when the girls were 15. Recently, Sophie, now a res ident of Miami, Fla., learned her sister might be alive in the United States. When she announced plans to sell her only possession, a Piper Cub plane, to finance a country wide search for her sister, the San Francisco News carried a picture of the woman Sophie and her story. A reader saw the picture, notified United Press her sis ter was working in Salt Lake City as a waitress. : Sister Identified Contacted in Florida, Za Za said it definitely was her. sis ter after hearing the nick name Agah mentioned. Later, Alexandra saw the newspa per picture of Sophie and said "Yes, it's her." Now Sophie plans to keep her plane and fly here for a reunion.' Alexandra came to Ameri ca a year ago after marrying ex-GI Hart Wegner in Vienna: She returned to Vienna two weeks ago to obtain a regular visa to remain in the U.S. and at that time discussed her '"lost" sister with their moth er, whose name also is Sophie Sauer.
