Dorothy Alden played a violin obbligato for the Sjwnt-Saens and Dr Harrp Cooper organist assisted in the D'Indy The chorus and soloists captured the ypirt of the 10th Century Vienna in tthe Spicker arrangement the Strauss "Blue Danube Waltzes" giving an orchestral reading after the heart of the great Waltz-Kng The assisting trio all members of the club were Martha McLean Lillian Turner and Gladys Kicks Suttsr The Arabian song cycle with its Eastern atmosphere of sensual romance brought more variation as to dynamics and tonalities perhaps than some of the other numbers The enunciation shadings and general musicianship for which this club has been noted now for these many years are still quite in evidence for their perfection and conductor and choristers are to be congratulated for the maintenance of these artistic standards Stuart Grosho-ig of Durham was featured as soloist on the program and sang a group of five numbers: Bois Epais Lully Wohin Schubert Vision Fugitive Massenet The Water Mill Vaughan Williams and Edward Loewe This young artist has a voice at once smooth and powerful and one can forecast a brilliant career for him in the concert field He has a musician's feeling for dramatic effect and also the ability to give real meaning to the composer's every mood It is interesting to note that this conductor has very evidently had some considerable experience with a baton as well as with the other two field? of music for which he is better known in this community and in the State His conducting is restrained in comparison with baton-waving maestros yet a musicianly abandon is noticeable in more exciting sections He was ably supported as were the chorus and soloists by the ac-companynig of Dr Lillian Parker Wallace at the piapo Dr Wallace has served

tonight that the amount of isolationism in the United States Senate might result in the rejection of any effective peace treaty after the wnr and he dec-tared that "If that happens our own Senate will have forced us back on the road to war for the second time in a generation" Speaking at commencement exercises of the College of Charleston the Virginia editor and author asserted: "If we Americans fail to grasp this chance that will be ours and no effective international organization for the maintenance of peace comes out of this bloody horror we may as well resign ourselves to a third world war And in that war there will be no victors "There is a shocking" ampunt of isolationism in the United States Senate' as now constituted and there is a real possibility that it will refuse to ratify any effective peace treaty that may be presented to it after the Axis is beaten" he told the graduating class "If that happens our own" Senate will have forced us back on the road to war for the second time in a generation" For those who have "a profound conviction that this must not occur" he said four possible courses seemed to be open He listed these as: (1) amend the Constitution to provide that a miC-jorityCof both Houses $hall ratify treaties instead of two-thirds of the Senate (2) defeat some of the worst isolationists before any treaty is presented (3) arrive at a world settlement without the drafting of a formal treaty and (4) bring the force of public opinion to bear upon the Senate and show that body how deeply the people desire an international police force
