HIGH SCHOOL ORATORY FINALISTS Back row: JUNIORS' CONCERT IS WELL RECEIVED Fourth Annual Program Is Vigorously Applauded by Enthusiastic Audience. ‘Western High School’s auditorium was the scene last night of the fourth annual concert by members of the junior clubs affiliated with the District of Columbia Federation of Music Clubs. The general consensus was that it was a highly successful affair from every point of view. Groups of children ranging in age from 5 and 6 years to the middle 'teens, numbering in all about 100, participated in the different numbers while the audience applauded. The program, announced as being ar- ranged by Mary Ware Goldman, was particularly well arranged and con- cerned itself entirely with music by the great composer, Franz Schubert, whose death centenary is being given world- wide recognition this year. Frances Gutelius, chairman of the junior clubs, and originator of the toy symphony work with the smallest children study- ing music in Washington, led a group | of membe?s of three junior clubs—the | Cadence, Claviarco and Vipivoce Clubs, also a group of young violin students— in the performance of “Scherzo in B Kellogg"s‘ Cabinet Chair Bought by Him and Sent Home ‘The cabinet chair which Secre- tary of State Frank B.

The four young pianists playing for Miss Gute- ilus’ two numbers were Ted Crum and Walter Swank in the Scherzo, and Kathryn Latimer and Billy Dexter in the March. Work Is Outlined. Mrs. Joseph M. Stoddard, president of the District of Columbia Federation of Music Clubs. made a short address covering the principal points regarding the junior work and touching upon other federation activities. Mrs. Stod- dard also accompanied her group of youthful singers—the Allegro Music Club—in two songs. These little girls showed thorough training both in sing- emergency relief personnel of the Red | Cross. At least 1,000 families were left | homeless by two of them, national | headquarters learned, while the toll of | the other two was yet uncalculated. The Red Cross began to set its re- lief machinery in motion scarcely more | than an hour after it had centralized | authority in Montgomery, Ala, for| ministrations to 26,000 refugees in the | Southeast. T. J. Wyrick, chairman of the local chapter of Knoxville, Tenn., telegraphed that Coal Creek, Anderson County, burst its bounds, making 500 families helpless. He made an urgent plea for food, shelter and clothing. He was ordered to communicate to national headquarters needs beyond those avail- ing and in posture. They sang clearly and with evident knowledge of the word values of the songs they presented. Another older group of girls, the Glee Club of Eastern High School, sang under the leadership of Marie Louise able locally. From Mayor B. C. Baker of Harri- man, Tenn., came another plea for as- sistance for 500 families. They were made homeless by a cloudburst. The mayor reported that destitute women She will study following | She is a_member of | , years of driving experience. and children were being crowded into school and other public buildings, that the town's water supply was cut off, and sanitary conditions were serious. Miss Emma Tyler, relief director, was dispatched to Harriman. L. C. Kelly, chairman of ' the Pine- ville, Ky., chapter of the Red Cross, reported “the worst flood in the history of the Cumberland River,” and national headquarters ordered a relief worker to start for Pineville immediately. The fourth request for assistance came from Keithsburg, Ill., where a third break in the Mississippi River levee was reported. Local Red Cross workers will be assisted there, it is said, by one member of the national personnel, and more will be sent later if necessary MARCHES TO BE MADE BY COAST ARTILLERY Initial Pme—tvio:)l T;s Type Will Be Provided for Mobile Units on Atlantic and Pacific. Wood. Frances Tucker, president of this group, showed marked talent and good training as a pianist in her solo, “Hark, Hark, the Lark!” The only vocal solo was presented by small Herbert Fuchs, who showed con- siderable aptitude in his number, “Wandering.” and he was received enthusiastically. Especially praiseworthy was the group of selections and their interpretation, presented by a chamber music trio— Jean Westbrook, violin; Virginia Imlay, planist, and Louis Potter, jr., violoncel- list. All three showed the authority that comes of constant practice and | careful training, as well as talent. As a finale, Miss Esther Linkins, for- mer president of the local federation, led a large group of the children of assorted sizes, in singing the “Junior Club Song.” Clubs Are Listed.
