A—I6 CRANTON RADIS PLEAFOR PARKS Father of Bill for Potomac River Development Speaks Over Station WISV. BY JOHN T. LIPSCOMB, Staff Correspondent of the Star. CLARENDON, Va., February 6.—“The highest welfare and the truest pros- perity of Arlington County will best be served by the preservation of its scenic assets along the Potomac,” Representa- tive Louis C. Cramton, father of the bill for great parkway development from Mount Vernon to Great Falls, declared in an address last night which featured the first of a series of “Arling- ton Night,” broadcasts arranged by the Arlington County Chamber of Com- merce over Station WJSV. ‘The speaker declared that the proper and fully rounded cut National Capital is also dependent on the retention of the beautiful wooded hills of the Vir- monument to~ the bu:ldm;l of those responsible for < a tragedy. l&: Cramton ....ssed the view that Congress made a mistake in ceding this area back to Virginia. “Even though Congress might cut the legal bonds, he said, “it could not and cannot cut the physical bonds which must ever | bind_ Arlington County to the closest association with the National Capital and hold it to an important part in the proper development in what is planned appeared in the latest edition of the! as the greatest and most beautiful Capital in the world.” The recent vote in the House on his bill—199 to 24—Mr. Cramton said, in- dicates that an overwheiming majority of the members of both houses of Con; gress appreciate the great beauties of the Virginia shore of the Potomac an | desire their preservation in order that the National Capital may be truly the world’s most beautiful city. . “Arlington County,” the speaker con- tinued, “so near the Capital itself and all the great Government bunldms-j planned for the Mall, must inevitably become, with proper planning and the exercise now of ordinary foresight. & great residential area with delightful homes, for a population that in the long future'to come will reach a large total. | Mr. Cramton commended the people of Arlington County, and particularly ths Chamber of Commerce, for success- ful efforts being made to insure a wise program of development for th. county. Other advantages of Arlington County were presented in short addresses by Henry L. Morris and Walter U. Varney, vice presidents of the Chamber of Com- merce.

The program last night was unusually interesting and well balanced.

The Scandinavian sacred music, however, is | new to local audiences, and it proved | enjoyable. Another particularly well delivered number was the Finnish song “Lost in the Night,” with soprano solo accompanied by the choir. In these | numbers the particular quality of these | students’ voices seemed at their happi- | drilling _in Dr.: F. Melius Chris- | times that sheer musical beauty were in the final phrases of the Norwegian folk melody, “So Soberly,” when pianissimo hum- ming formed the background for a solo that melted with the accompaniment into complete silence with the quiet softness of the same quality as that of falling Snow. An encore given was “Fair Are the Meadows,” beautifully sung. ! This choir has excellent precision of attack and obviously fine and thorough its music. There are the tone quality is harsh and too definitely cut. The flexibility ossible in tonal shading for Bach’s ing Ye to the Lord” was missing. The high voices also were inclined to become strident in the highest notes. ‘When one_considers the changing per- sonnel and the general youthfulness of this choir, however, the performance seems particularly admirable. The mem- bers of the choir are sincere and seem to Jove the music that they sing. They received a storm of applause at _th conclusion of their program. H. F. MOORE AND ROBERT GOLDSAND. | Two young artisis made their local GRACE < | debut in formal concert at the May- flower Hotel yesterday morning. Ap- pearing before the usual large audience Which, on this occasion, had _three first ladies” in its midst—Mrs. Hoover, Mrs Woodrow Wilson and Mrs. Wil- jam Howard Taft—Grace Moore and Robert Goldsand closed the current of Mrs. Lawrence Townsend’s hg events. Both young people to find high favor with the «home town” in ‘Tennessee. gne studied music in Washington anq ap. peared as assisting singer on a program that Martinelli gave here. Then Grace Moore went to New York and she was last heard in Washington as a particy. lar star of the “Music Box Revue” soy. eral seasons ago. Since then, although She 1s said to be only 23 years oM now, Miss Moore has had experience in opera abroad and made & successful debut at the Metropolitan in New York., She showed her definite fitness for the operatic stage in the poise and dramatic color that she gave to her opening number yesterday, “In Quelle Trine Morbide,” from Puceini’s “Manon Les. caut” and also the air “Depuis le Jour,” from Charpentier's “Louise.” Miss Moore has a beautiful tone qual- ity not unlike that of Lucrezia Bori, and she has the freshness and sponta-. neity of youth. She is not yet perhaps the complete artist, but she is certainly a singer who loves her music and has already acquired professional training so that she commands her tone and in- terpretation intelligently most of the time. Many in the audience seemed to like her best in the simpler songs of her American_group—Griffes’ lovely “By a Lonely Forest Pathway” Clara Ede wards' “By the Bend of the River” and Spross’ popular Spring song, “Robin, Robin, Sing Me a Song,” with “Ma Lindy' Lou” as a characteristic encore for the group. Miss Moore also sang, as her other encore, a song written by her accompanist, Pietro Cimara. Mr. Goldsand proved a gifted pianist opera, — i — g of the Chopin etudes was delig] and his cholce of contrasting et nicely blending etudes was excel- Yfllt. Perhaps his most attractivy in- terpretation was of the ballet music from Schubert’s “Rosamunde.” He also won applause for his rendition of the familiar concert arrangement of Johann Strauss’ “Blue Danube " —H.
