MUSICAL JUNEAU IS GIVEN PRAISE, VISITING PIANIST Maxim S{i;piro Urges Community o Continue Spiritat BPWCLuncheon Citizenship of Juneau is “not a little matter but one of the greatest honors that has been bestowed upon me and one that I will cherish al- ways,” Maxim Schapiro, concert pia , told members of the Bus ness and Professional Women’s Ciub regular luncheon meeting yes- terday where he was guest speaker. A turning point in community life could well be the results of the amazing spirit demonstrated by cit- izens of Juneau in bringing to a reality the concert piano for Ju- neau, he said. Schapiro urged the continuation of active participation by-individu- als and groups working together with a vision of a happier and broader future for the cultural lite of Juneau by the participation of all citizens. A community music school of the future would be a worthwhile goal, he stated. There {are many possibilities which could be developed if constructive plan- ning and businesslike procedures are employed. | Schapiro recommended the atten- !tion of the community to the sup- port of the known talent here. He spoke of listening to the playing of a small boy in Douglas whom he feels has amazing talent as a violinist. The melodies and sounds which he produced on his violin betray his talent as a young artist. The com- munity should arouse itself and make it possible for the lad to con- tinue with his work. Miss Shirley Jones of Fairbanks delighted the group assembled with three piano selections, Her gracious manner in responding to requests charmed those present. The High School Sextet sang.six numbers, including “Strawberry Fair,” “The Night Has a Thousand Eyes” and “Sleepy Hollow Tune,” under. the able direction of Miss Virginia Long. The result of group participation was well demonstrated by the young sextet. They were accompanied on the piano’ by Miss Dolores Matilla. $ Seventeen guests at the Monday meeting of the BP.W.C. brought attendance to 56.

Like other entries, all photo- graphic exhibits must be set up Thursday evening between 7 and 9 pm., the eve of the week-end show. Department chairmen are to be in the Elks' Hall during those hours, to receive entries and arrange exhibits.
