. School of Fine Artse

Dear Mr. Geltch:

| I feel terribly bad abcut the incident
that happened last night. We put the stop watch on our

, Had we know previously that you were
to appear we would have cut the time to thirteen minutes
for our parte Previously, they have had the trumpeteers
and other entertainment that was not as exacting as your
violin movements. Yours, of course, could not be cut any
_ shorter than from three to two, end so forth, but we knew
nothing of this, and apparently the time consumed in the
opening of the station, the station announcements, and
the introduction of the principals took time that should
mre Ween plaamed furs

Frankly, I was sick about the whole
thing lest night, and I want to apologize to you for any
discretion on our part. i assure you it was not intention-
ale

I have often saic thet I would rather
hear you pley your viclin than any man I have ever hearte .
That is not cheap flattery. You have always been so fine
and wholesome about explaining the background and
of the movement and composer, and so forth, that it is a
real pleasure to see and hear you play the violins You
take the ordinary fellow who does not have the musical
background that most artists have, and you bring him up to ~
@ level that he can understand.
