A well arranged and admirably short gram was presented at the Jewish Community Center before an enthu- siastic audience last night. This pro- gram was Oscar Levine’s in more ways than one. The 16-year-old student vio- linist was making his first public ap- pearance on this occasion; he was spon- sored in it by a group of music patrons who are anxious to see this Washing- ton boy get his chance to go to Boston the end of this week to try for the prize offered in the national competi- tion given there under the auspices of the American Federation of Music Clubs. Oscar won out in the prelimi- nary District of Columbia contest held the end of April; he won out a second time in the contest held May 4 in Bal- timore, when competitors from Mary- Jand, Virginia, West Virginia and the | District of Columbia participated. Now ‘Oscar, with the help of funds raised by last night's concert, hopes to get to Boston and try in the national finals. ‘There is no doubt that Oscar Levine has marked talent. He has a beautiful singing tone; he is built physically for good violin playing and has the broad hand with strong fingers that is known “the violin hand,” and, in addition this basic equipment, he seems to have the real artistic sense for shading of tone, ‘schieving at times, even now, an amazing authority in his playing.
