Burial was in Mountain View Cemetery under direction of Campbell's Funeral Home, Hines Offers Great Performance Here By DOROTHY MORETON Journal Society Editor From the moment Jerome appeared on the stage here Wednesday evening, it was evident he is more concerned with presenting the ideas of the composer than with glorifying himself. Hence his appeal as a musician primarily, and also as singer and actor to a consummate degree, sets him in the top rank occupied by a very few artists singing His recital, opening the 1957-58 series of Rapid City Concert Association presentations, was heard by an almost capacity house at the higth school auditorium. Hines delivered each song as if it were his favorite, becoming actually the story teller and conveyor of mood, convincing, lyric and truly beautiful at all moments. He is a master of the virtues of good timing, and he never seizes the opportunity to find a glorious tone and hang onto it to the distortion of rhythm, as do too many singers! And he has a due sense of the unity of song and accompaniment, playing into the hands of his very capable accompanist, Alexander Alexay, as a partner, rather than as.

a lone melodist with subordinate background. There were many high points in Hines' 'beautiful program where the resilient interplay between voice and keyboard were especially noticeable, as for example in the dramatic ending of Schubert's "Der the subject is arrested by the appearance of his own double. Mozart The immediately won his audience the opening aria, basso, "All you Lovely Fan sung in a most attractive English translation which undoubtedly won many more friends for Mozart. He followed this with the magnificent utterance from Mozart's last opera, written in the year of his death, "The Magic Flute," and translated to read "Within These Holy Portals." In this, Hines proved his serene tonal power and musicianship in phrasing of seemingly limitless sweep and majesty. Turning then to Mozart's opera of five years earlier, "'The Marriage of Hines combined matchless melodic line with whimsical humor to bring forth the charm which no one has excelled since Mozart laid down his pen.

Romantic Songs of the romantic period continued the program with one of Schubert's most difficult songs, "An Schwager Kronos" which the singer set forth in all its logical significance and rhythmic strength. Great dramatic power was released in Hines' interpretation of the second Schubert song, "Der Doppelganger', and Richard Strauss' exquisite "Zueignung" became truly the lyric dedilestinate to title say implies. that It the would singer's be voice warmer and richer as the program unfolded, because these qualities were never absent, but lyric and dramatic demands upon it increased and were fulfilled as the evening progressed. Its first half was concluded with trona Verdi's challenging "Don operatic Carlos" arias, one Glammai and in contrast, "La a Calunnia" from Rossini's "Barber of Out of the first, Hines drew deep from the well of poignancy to present the likeness of a lonely and disheartened man. In the second, he sounded forth a satirical and piquant parody of bombast and pseudo which attained heights of true comedy.

Returning for an immediately demanded encore, Hines announced one of his "favorite" arias, "Una Serra which took audience by storm as covered it to be "Some Evening" from "South Pianist In three waltzes by Chopin, Alexander Alexay, pianist of the evening, proved himself to be a high brilliant. soloist, These fleet-fingered adwere an mirable choice to center the basso's program, bringing to play tonal contrast and the bird-like clarity of phrases warmly familiar and pleasing. As an encore, he played "Yogi" vividly pictorial music from a ballet which he had composed for the eminent dancer, Ruth St. Denis. French Deviating from the printed program, Hines began the of ful the evening with pastel-shaded Faure's, wist.

Then, becoming Mephistofeles in Gounod's Hines sketched the harsh, bitter Sputnik Should Be Visible Here About 6:15 a.m. Rapid Citians may be able to see Sputnik or the accompanying rocket that sent it into space between 6:10 and 6:20 a.m. Friday, Capt. John M.

Jackson, member of the Astronomy Club, said Thursday. Orbit of the Russian satellite whisking hundreds of miles above the earth is expected to fall within viewing distance of the Black Hills early Friday morning. Jackson estimates the satellite will appear at a 32 to 40 degree elevation above the horizon in the western sky at about 6:17 a.m. It should be traveling in a southeasterly direction. The Astronomy Club will look for Sputnik and try to photograph soufrom, the hogback ridge the gap.

Anyone interested in looking is advised to seek a high altitude and if possible have binoculars of seven power or more. Sputnik if it arrives on schedule will look like bright meteor flashing across the sky. It will move a little bit slower than a meteor and should be visible for over a minute. Rapid City, S. Daily Journal 3 Thursday, October 17, 1957 CALENDAR Thomas Beacham, the renowned British conductor, Landers also was awarded a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music in London, but was unable to get passage to England because of the outbreak of World War II.

Indian Jury Rights Heard Before Judge A hearing got underway Thursday morning as a Rapid City attorney claimed unfair exclusion of Indians from Circuit Court jury E. W. Christol presides the hearing William M. Rensch, representing, Vance Harvey Brings 38, Rosebud, claims purposeful omission Indian jurors on the panel selected to hear Brings Pipe's trial. In a written motion submitted to the court Monday, when the Indian defendant was arraigned for trial on charges of third degree forgery, Rensch asserted "intentional, planned, systematic and deliberate" omission of Indians from lists of jurors.

Rensch also claims "failure on the part of the governing board of the city to select jurors for this panel as provided by law." First. witness called by Rensch in the action was Pennington County Clerk of Courts W. B. Andrus who identified various jury lists and records of jurors who have served on Circuit Court panels since 1936. Rensch this, week subpeonaed jury lists, election registration lists and records of eligible jurors for the past several years, Jurors are selected by the Rapid City governing committee from names picked at random from the lists of eligible county voters made up from poll lists and assessor's listings.

City Auditor Robert Lang said he kept lists prepared from year to year, eliminating names of persons selected for jury duty, gaining new names of potential jurors from assessor's lists, registration lists, the city directory, telephone book and from personal knowledge. Lang added that he thought Indians are competent to serve when chosen. Alner Snesrud, county auditor, identified general election registration lists but said 1950 lists were not properly tagged and could not be definitely, identified, said for 1946 and 1948 could not be located in Rapid county City, president of the Black files. Mrs. Eva Nichols, Hills Council of American Indians, said she estimates there are at least 2,000 qualified Indian electors in the Rapid City vicinity who are eligible for jury duty but only two Indian jurors have served during the past five years.

Rev. Percy Tibbetts, director of the County Service Center, also an Indian, identified the same documents submitted to Mrs. Nichols and substantiated her opinions. Milo Rypkema, a member of the Rapid City commission when jurors were selected in May 1957 the prepared lists of potential ors were submitted to the commission but to his knowledge none of the commission participated in making up the list. The hearing stems from Rensch's assertion that jurors selected for the current court term are not representative and that omission of Indians from the jury list is prejudicial to the constitutional rights of his client, Brings Pipe.
