SYMPATHETIC INTEREST, It was, Indeed, illuminating to feci, in the attention and sympathetic interest alloted this program, by these music-lovers, that Cincin nati has lost hone of its affection for classical music, and that "the season," still in its infancy, has al- ready proven una huccum. iii. uoof tn ho deenlv immersed In its devotion to "good music," and eo to cling, with reverence and appreciation, to the delightful the-fat. imh as vesterdays au dience so well and so generously applauded.

Announcements to this effect will be in the mails on Saturday next. flLREADY a very vivid and rA'l wide-spread interest has Pj VI been aroused ln the Wel i eta-J lesley Club's gala theatre party which has been set for Monday evening, November 28, the Cincinnati premiere at the Cox Theatre, of that much-discussed Broadway success "The Women." Mrs.

Anthony D. Bullock the General Chairman of this event in aid of the Wellesley Club's Scholarship Fund, has appointed Mrs. Stuart Hilton Smith, the treasurer of the Theatre Party. Advance tickets may be secured of any member of this alumnal organization, these cards being later exchanged for reserved seats at the box office at the Cox Theatre. Mr.

and Mrs. Charles Springer announce the marriage of their daughter, Betty, to Mr. Edward T. Glaab, son of Mr. and Mrs.

Frank Glaab of Sayler Patk, which was solemnized on October 22. The bride and groom are now established in their apartment at 2126 Slane Avenue, Norwood. measures on the second time around, after the trio, instead of playing straight through. On account of the brevity of this passage, the repetition appears to be one of the sanctioned breaches of tradition and as such has itself become a tradition. Tile manner in which Mr.

Lange treats the short introduction of the first movement, as though he were drawing a cork from a champagne bottle, remains quite in keeping with the lighthanded and crisp performance of the rest of the symphony. Tchaikovsky's own admission of having written music of symphonic character as a trio justifies an arrangement for orchestra. Except in those places where it loses by thick orchestration and a piling on of effects, Frederick Stock's transcription enhances the composer's ideas and enlarges the scope of the medium of expression so as to allow his original conception to have freer play. Strangely enough, Tchaikovsky appears to have forgotten his own troubles while paying this tribute to his friend, Nicholas Rubinstein. During the course of composing long stretches of the second movement, he also evidently forgot that he was writing an elegy.

One of the variations, for example, has a waltz in his best "Sleeping Beauty" vein, the last part of which Stock has orchestrated rather a la Rosenkavalier. There is also a charming mazurka. Now and again Tchaikovsky remembered as in the lamentoso variation and of course in the overwhelming finale and coda, where he reverted to his oroginal theme and worked It into a lugubrious and Impressive ending. Its looseness of structure and fickleness of mood notwithstanding, this trio belongs in the top drawer alongside the best of Tchaikovsky's music, thanks largely to the superiority of its thematic material. Some of those sweeping melodies rank with his best and only he could write them in just that way.

Stock's arrangement and a difficult one it is, too attempts to preserve the chamber character of the work wherever it can. As a consequence no small amount of ensemble playing falls to Emil and Walter Heermann, violinist and 'cellist, respectively, and to John Quincy Bass, the pianist, who yesterday shared a well-deserved ovation with Mr. Lange. Tchaikovsky-ists would do well not to pass this concei by. Or are they Tchaikovsky-ites? NOT YET, FISHERMEN! For hopeful firhermen of 19-10 or thereafter, 10.000 fish from the Newtown hatchery will be placed in Sharon Woods lake this afternoon by the State Conservation Commission.

MISS STEM IN TOWN.

This is good news to the many friends of this visitor, who is here over the week end for a rest from the customary duties, which or dinarlly bring her to this vicinity. Needless to say she will be warmly welcomed, her friends as well as her devoted family circle, being highly elated at her arrival, even though this visit Is to be a flying Miss Stem is staying with her brother and sister, Mr.

BY FREDERICK YEISER. Members of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra in their best company manner' rise to greet the shortish man with bushy red-blond hair as he makes his way across the stage of Music Hall. This is Hans Lange, the second guest conductor of the season. He begins the Overture to "Der Freischutz." Soon it becomes evi dent by his well-regulated, unspectacular approach to his task that his primary interest lies in the music on the stand before him rather than in the man on the podium. Perhaps his willingness to let Weber, Beethoven, and Tchaikovsky speak for themselves supplies the indefinable element which makes this concert so satisfactory on the whole.

Here I should like to report In passing that Mr. Lange has re arranged the seating of the orchestra. The second violin and viola sections have swapped places. All the strings in fact have once been brought forward on the apron. The men do not sit So closely to gether as they did under Jose Iturbi or so far apart as Eugene Goossens places them.

Mr. Lange, too, has had some of the platforms re- Installed. These various seating arrangements produce results which vary little one from another, however. Listing only three items as it does, the program looks shorter than it is. The Tchaikovsky "Trio to the Memory of a Great Artist," however, which monopolizes the second half of the program runs for 50 minutes or more.

It is this big work that lends to the concert its greatest point of interest and I say this with no intent to belittle either "Der Freischutz" Overture or Beethoven's First Symphony, both of which are more perfect musical creations than Tchaikovsky's. But opportunities of hearing this piece either in its original form as a trio or in its arrangement for orchestra seldom come along. As I have Intimated above, Mr. Lange lets the music play, consequently his interpretation Overture to "Der Freischutz" differs in no marked degree from most others that have been handled with intelligence and taste. It is plain, though, that he makes no compromises with the adagio marking of the introduction inas much as he takes it very slowly indeed.

One of the greatest of living writers about music, and one of the most entertaining, Donald Francis Tovey by name, describes Beetho ven's First Symphony as a "small and comic sonata for orchestra This fits so well that I shall refrain from further descriptive com. ment. Almost perfectly formed, it consists mainly of an exchange of compliments between the strings and wind Instruments. Mr. Lange choses to do with two fewer first violinists than make up the complete section.

On principle, this strikes me as a little strange in view of the fact that Beethoven scores rather heavily and In great detail for the winds. Actually, however, Mr. Lange maintains a bal ance between these choirs and strings, which seem to make most of their comments in scales. In the third movement, which Beethoven calls a minuet, but which is more like a scherzo, Mr. Lange repeats the first eight Symphony Program The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, with Hans Lange.

Gruber has been appointed to that office. His job of course Is to see that there are no more smoking chimneys and other such nuisances, similar to those which this city has for gen erations endured, and whose "gar lands dressed," long sung in song and story, are no longer soiled by endless soot as they have been for generations. The Garden Clubs of this vicinity have long fought, until now, a losing fight for a Smoke Inspector that is one in very truth. Mr. Gruber is an engineer, a Cincin- natian, and an alumnus of the University of Cincinnati.

He thus has been well prepared to make of his job of Smoke Inspector, say these expert civic spirits, something which will really rid this "fair city" of its greatest blemish a smoke-filled air which, so say the medics, leave the lungs in a soft-coal-blackened condition which, in this day and generation, so say these wiseacres, appears unnecessary, to say the least! So in antici pation of doing away with "the smoke nuisance" in this part of the lovely Ohio Valley, the Gar den Club, and all citizens, rejoice In the prospect of something being done to do away with present smoke conditions. IN HONOR OF FIANCES. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Edward Well entertained with a cocktail party for their son, Mr.

The compilation and arrange ment of the book, its editing and, truly, its very existence are due to Miss Florence Murdoch who has labored lovingly and patiently to bring together various tributes from every source and to compress them within the compass Of this slender volume: "Fragmentary records," as she says in the fore word, "of a woman much loved who left the impress of her warm and eager personality upon every movement with which she came In contact; whose vision of their pos-sibilties was equalled only by her earnestness In working towards their fulfillment; whose enthusi asm was seasoned with the saving grace of humor; whose courage In overcoming handicaps and obsta cles was a high thing, a thing of faith; whose initiative was deiived perhaps from her pioneering ancestors who came early to the New World from Er gland, and followed the course of empire westward." The texts which Miss Murdoch has selected include the official me morials of the Cincinnati Woman's Club, Society of Mayflower De- Ecendents, Colonial DameS, Cincinnati Chapter of the D.

A. and the Woman's Art Club. There are also delightful memories of a number of her friends and interesting records by various coworkers of her connections with the Cincinnati Pottery Club, Rookwood Pottery, Chicago World's Fair, Porcelain League, Handicraft Exhibition League, Crafters Company, Windham County Historical Society and Newfane Garden Club (in her ancestral Vermont), and her church affiliations. The appearance of the booklet would delight Miss Newton's fine aesthetic sense the blue cover on which her monogram in silver looks so lovely, the mellow-toned, handmade paper on which the delicate clear text Is so beautifully composed, the fine proportions of the whole thing as well as. the craftsmanship of its execution.

The technical perfection of the typography, printing and binding is due to the taste and skill of Mr. Elmer Frank Gleason, who set the type and printed It by hand on his private press the Stratford Press in his charming home.
