The judge of the State Music Festival at Logan April 30 and May 1 and 2 will be Herbert L. Clarke, director of the celebrated Long Beach, California, Cali-fornia, municipal band, and cor-, net soloist for Sousa's band fo 22 years, Professor N. W. Christiansen Chris-tiansen announced recently. Director Clarke first came into in-to fame as a cornet soloist . of the Patrick Gilmore band in 1892. Gilmore was the originator origina-tor and pioneer of the great concert con-cert band in America. When he died and his organization was disbanded. Professor Clarke was offered the solo cornet position with John Philip Sousa's band. His sensational solos during world tours and transcontinental trip, with the "March King'' earned him the title of "World's premier cornet soloist." He held this post and that of assistant conductor with the Sousa band for more than 22 years. In 1916, he became the conductor conduc-tor of the Anglo-Canadian concert con-cert band of Huntsville, Canada, which he developed into one of the greatest bands in the Dominion. Domin-ion. Returning to the United States in 1922, he was engaged as conductor of the Long Beach municipal band, which position he now hoids. "This is one of the famous bands of America, and unquestionably unques-tionably the outstanding band in the west." Professor Christiansen said. "The band, established in 1909. is composed of experienced players of international reputation. reputa-tion. Twelve soloists are featured Real Estate License Problem Discussed By City Commission No decision was reached by the city commission Wednesday concerning, con-cerning, the collection of license fees from the real estate dealers of F'rovo. Licenses have not been collected from the real estate dealers for 10 vears. and they were of the opinion that the "ordinance had been revised. In making the drive for licenses this year, however-. She commission billed them along with the rest of the merchants. Right now intensive work is being be-ing done on the revision of five Provo ordinances, including the license ordinance. Plenty of time and care will be spent on this, as it will not become applicable again until next year It is possible that the real estate licenses will be reduced. re-duced. a all the dealers believe the $25 fee excessive. Some ot them believe no license whatsoever- should be paid, because be-cause they are also licensed by the state. There are 11 dealers in the city. Mavor Mark Anderson told the group that if the entire license c refinance were repealed, it would mean another mill and a quarter-levy quarter-levy to make the budget balance. Most merchants would rather pay the license fee than have the raised, in his opinion. He also stated that if the ordinance is ap- ; plied it should be applied universally, univer-sally, and not to only part of the , business establishments. I The licenses normally pay for about one fourth of the cost of j the police and fire departments, j the mayor said, and it is the busi- ness establishments which require ) most of the protection, including the banks.

Fred Mat-Murray and Henry Fontja. "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" is a memorable step in movie history because it is the first film in which color has been used on the screen as it is in nature- as an inevitable, natural background; rather than as a de lightful new novelty with which , to make experiments in effect I and design. Based on the novel by John Fox, Jr., "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" is a tale of hill folk in the Cumberland Mountains, and the feuds that set family to fighting family for causes long since forgotten. for-gotten. The film presents Miss Sidney and Fonda as members of the j same mountain clan, who all their Lives have loved each other and I warred together on a neighboring i family. Ancient ways are chang- eu. nowever. wnen MacMurray, a young engineer, arrives to construct con-struct a ""railroad line "through their hills. He wins Miss Sidney's Sid-ney's heart, while Fonda, in bewilderment, be-wilderment, sees the collapse of the only code he knows to fight and kill for what he loves The film reaches a climax when Fonda sets out after MacMurray. and the rival clan simultaneously sets out after Fonda. In addition to the three stars, the cast includes such favorites as Fred Stone. Fuzzy Knight, Beu-lah Beu-lah Bondi. Spanky McFarland and Nigel Bruce. A Pop Eye cartoon and the Paramount news complete com-plete an unusually fine program. Crest Theatre NOW PLAYING e Our business is your entertainment.
