TRIBUTETO BRYAN Him From Medicine to Ministry. How one of William Jennings l Bryan's lectures on religion turned him from a medical to a ministerical career in his student days was related last night by Rev. Dr. Joseph R. Sizoo, pastor of |the New York Avenue Presby- terian Church, to a dinner group gathered at the Shoreham Hotel in honor of the “Great Common- er’s 75th birthday anniversary. Dr. Sizoo told the guests, who included Bryan's daughter and g r anddaughter, 4 | that he went to college determined {to prepare himself for a career in ! medicine, It was in this first year as a student that he heard the orator deliver a lecture on “The Value of an | Ideal.” The young medical student became | restless. self-questioning, after receiv- ing this spiritual message from one of “the greatest idealists of his time.” In three years he had shifted from & | medical to a ministerial goal. Lived for Common Good. “I am now pastor of the church | which Mr. Bryan attended during his long residence in Washington,” Dr. Sizoo said. “I once spoke a few words over Mr. Bryan's body as it lay in| ! that church. I salute his spirit now. “He was pre-eminently a Christian | men. His religion began with him- | self, but did not end there. He lived | | for the common good. I pause to| give thanks that he came this way and in the end carried on for the vindication of faith.” Another speaker was Wayne C. Wil- liams, Special Assistant to the At- i torney General, who discussed “The Bryan of History.” Mr. Williams de- | clared: | “No other man was such a power {in the field of reform. He had more | measures adopted and more vindica- | | tions than any other statesman of his | Rev. Dr. Sizoo. |to reach any Daughter Guest of Honor. Guests of honor at the memorial dinner were Mr. Bryan's daughter, | | Mrs. Grace Bryan Hargreaves, and | | granddaughter, Evelyn Hargreaves. | Among those who gave their in-| | former Gov. John G. Pollard of Vir- | ginia, Urey Woodson, alien property custodian, and W. D. Jamieson. Another personal tribute to Brvan | was paid by Secretary of Commerce | Roper, who acted as toastmaster. 'SWIMMING POOL formal reminiscences of Bryan were | Brilliant Violin Recital Artist Who Had Not Been in Washington for Tells How Lecture Turned] Many Years Returns With His Son as Accom- panist—Retains Skill of Other Years. BY ALICE EVERSMAN, AN KUBELIK, the violinist whose fame has never been returned in recital last as the program progressed. At The most interesting part of Kube- lik's performance last evening was the proof of the endurance of a well grounded technique and also that all the new “methods” which have been invented have not been able to ac- complish more in the way of skill than what he used to astonish the musical world a couple of decades past. He stood before his public yesterday like eclipsed by any of the newcemers in the violinistic field, evening after many years of absence. The audience, which was small for Constitution Hall, made up for the lack of numbers by its enthusiastic reception of the artist, an enthusiasm which grew constantly the end the great violinist, Who has known many such receptions, was recalled until he added ‘| five encores to his program. and listener, Mr, Kubelik was accom- panied by his son Raffael, who was 80 much in sympathy with his father’s interpretations that they seemed as one, played Schumann's “Abendlied,” Hu- bay's “Zephyr” and Schubert's “Ave Mari; a picture from an old album and | BOYI stirred it to much the same ardor that greeted him when he was the greatest luminary on the musical | horizon. | Certain things were bound to be missing. The sonorous tone of former | years and the fire of interpretation had | diminished somewhat, but the speed and facility of his fingers were as| dazzling as ever. There was a natural- ness about his playing of the virtuoso | passages which was decidedly refresh- ing and a security that seemed rock- | like. Modern violinists have a new | way of playing, a new basis of tech- | nical formation, but it cannot be said | greater heights than what this artist attained when such | virtuosi were a rarity. His playing has survived the years, the new ideas and the new demands, and, if he can- not claim the title of the greatest| violinist of the day, he still holds a prominent place in the front rank of the greatest. | Kubelik’s name and that of Paga- | nini have always been associated, and | it was in the two compositions by ! Paganini that he was at his best. In “Caprice” and “Campanella” the swift and facile gliding from note to note and the dashing swing of his execution was accomplished without | the slightest disturbance of the crys- | taline tone. The runs, harmonics, difficult double stops and octaves flowed from under his steellike fingers without effort and with ever a clarity as pure as the sound of bells. One of his own compositions, “Tar- | antella,” was of this same character, while the other, “Canzonetta,” was & | melody of sad import and haunting sweetness. Quite in contrast as re-| gards the material, but resembling | the Paganini numbers in the finished | execution, was the “Praeludium” of Bach, by far the finest number on the | program. | For the opening number, Saint- | Saens’ “Concerto in B Minor,” the | artist was not entirely at ease, nor | had his tone gained the warmth which | graced the later numbers. It is not | the best type of composition with | which ta begin, its melodic nature re- quiring a special mood for performer | Statistical Clerk TUITION 5 DOLLARS Speeial low rate tuition to these whe enroll week, Both men a; INTENSIVE INSTRUCTIO!

The Social Service Center of the Salvation Army, which will move into its new building at First and F streets with formal dedication exer- cises April 14, is issuing a call to its patrons in Washington for recreation equipment with which to furnish large “play” room to be installed in the new building. Brigadier John McGee yesterday said the recreation rooms were “ideally situated” to contain pool or billiard tables and asked that any persons in the city with such equipment which is no longer in use, inform the Army headquarters at 629 New Jersey ave- nue and a truck would be sent to collect it. Brigadier McGee asked that persons with such equipment call Atlantic 6420. The new building is being erected with funds derived from the sale of donated furniture and clothing, which is rehabilitated in the Army’s work shop in connection with the new building. Collection Brings $12,000. A collection of old Persian illumi- nated manuscripts was sold recently in London for $12,000.

The ground sought by | the association is between the Powell Scheol and Sixteenth street. Several months ago the association passed a | resolution favoring use of the land as a playground site. A motion to secure the site formerly occupied by the Tuberculosis Hospital for recreational purposes was tabled. The original motion asked for the site as a recreational center only. A sub- stitute motion to include the Wilson Teachers’ College in the area in ad- dition to the recreational center was proposed. An amendment to the orig- inal motion was then offered suggest- ing that the site be used for a recrea- tional and educational center. Unable to come to any decision, the associa- tion favored tabling the motion until a future date. ‘The meeting was held in the Powell Junior High School.
