Concert Cellist To Give Recital Here Wednesday
Emanuel Feuermann, who has been pronounced by leading musical authorities as the greatest cellist now on the concert stage and one of the finest of all times, is scheduled to appear in Hoch auditorium for a recital at 8:20 p.m. Wednesday.
Feuermann has been playing publicly since he was eleven—one of the rare child prodigies who on attaining manhood lived up to his early promise. Now an American citizen, he was born into a family of great musicians at Kolomea, Galicia. His father, a gifted cellist, was his first teacher. Later he studied with Julius Klengel.
He made his debut as guest artist with one of Europe's finest orchestras, the Vienna Symphony, under Felix Weingartner. He was at that time eleven years old. At sixteen he became a professor at the Conservatory of Music in Cologne. From there he went to head the cello department of the famous Berlin Hochschule fur Musik, a post he held until political conditions made him an exile.
In 1934 Feuermann was invited to make his American debut as guest artist with the New York Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra under Bruno Walter. This appearance, together with his ensuing recitals, created a tremendous stir, critics pronouncing him "One of the greatest living virtuosos" and placing him on a par with the inimitable Casals. Immediately there arose a widespread demand for him throughout the country, and his annual tours
since then have been heavily booked.
Before coming to this country, Feuermann had a vast following in Europe. He was a favorite solo artist among leading orchestral conductors and appeared under the batons of Felix Wengartner, Bruno Walter, Wilhelm Furtwangler, Arthur Nikisch, Otto Klemperer, Gabriel Pierer, Fritz Busch, Pierre Monteux, and Arturo Toscaniin. In this country too, he has appeared with practically every major orchestra. Recently he was appointed head of the cello department of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. He is at present engaged in reading all the Beethoven Quartet compositions, a task which he estimates will take two years to complete.
"Bit and Spur"
Gives House Show
Two new features have been added to the annual horse show sponsored by the Bit and Spur club, which will be held on the campus May 1, Gayle Mott of the K. U. stables announced yesterday.
For the first time townspeople will be invited to participate in the event, and a contest in goat roping will be held. Other divisions of the show include five gaiters, three gaiters, ponies, and jumpers. Prizes will be offered in jumping and the goat roping but the other fields will be non-competitive. Equitation students will also give exhibitions of trick riding.
All seniors in journalism are requested to meet at 4:30 tomorrow in room 102 of the Journalism building. Elmer F. Beth, chairman of the department, announced. Professor Beth will discuss "Job Prospects and the Operation of Departmental Files."
A touching moment in "Remember the Day," brings John Payne and Claudette Colbert together. The memorable film, which is now at the Granada theater for 3 days, has been called "Claudette Colbert's greatest." John Shepperd, Ann Todd, Douglas Craft and many others complete the cast of the film which was directed by Henry King and produced by William Perlberg. Co-feature, "The Mexican Spitfire's Baby," starring Lupe Velaz and Leon Errol.
Band Concert Date Changed
The University of Kansas Band will present its annual spring concert Wednesday evening, March 25, instead of Monday, March 23, as scheduled in the K-book. The concert, which will be presented in Hoch auditorium, will feature several patriotic numbers and an exhibition of rhythmic gun spinning.
"Roumanian Rhapsody No. 1" (Georges Enesco) will be included in the first part of the program. The second part will feature current patriotic numbers. "Angels of Mercy" (Irving Berlin) and "The White Cliffs of Dover" (Walter Kent) will be in this group. Gun spinning to the music of "America the Beautiful" will be done by Bill Sears, Fine Arts sophomore, and George Rhoades, college junior. "Pop Goes the Weasel" (arranged by Calliet) will be one of the numbers on the third and concluding part of the program.
PHI GAMS WIN—

The Friday night contest was considerably slower than the series finale. After the two teams had played through the first quarter on even terms, a Phi Gam flurry of field goals gave the Fiji's a 22 to 11 lead at halftime. From then on the Phi Gam's were never in trouble, although a Phi Psi rally in the last four minutes of play cut the margin to 33 to 29.

was the Phi Gam's Roscoe Hambric who drove under the basket for 12 points. Teammate Larry McSpadden den hit four field goals. The lanky Hallberg led the Phi Psi scoring with four baskets. John Krum and Kyle each contributed seven points.
Both McSpadden and Hinshaw fouled out in the last half, and the Phi Gam's were forced to finish the game with but four men. Even then the Psi's were unable to pierce the
