Advance reports from the cities in which the famous Roth String quartet is appearing on fieir concert con-cert tour are highly flattering to the famous musical organization which is slated to appear in Provo on March 16, under the auspices of the Brigham Young university ly-ceum ly-ceum course. A notable triumph was scored in Peoria, Illinois, on the occasion of their concert. Writing in the Journal-Transcript, Louise Hask-ins, Hask-ins, music critic says: "The Roth String quartet, long known as one of the world's most distinguished musical organizations, organiza-tions, made their first appearance in a midwest to Pacific coast tour la.st night at Bradley hall and completely charmed a discriminating discrim-inating audience, some of whom had come from out of town to avail themselves of such an opportunity. oppor-tunity.

The ensemble seemed to play as one man in a unity and harmony that was almost miraculous, and the quality qual-ity and coloring of their tones suggested silken strings. "The program opened with the lovely Beethoven Quartet in F minor, played with a rare delicacy of phrasing and exquisite tone shading. The precision of timing was masterly and the rich tones of the viola were heard to particular partic-ular advantage in the third movement. move-ment. The Debussy Quartet in G minor followed, its intricate lacy patterns in direct contrast to the majesty of the Beethoven number. num-ber. Perhaps the most beautiful thing on the whole program was the slow movement from this quartet, interpreted with a sensitive sensi-tive artistry that left nothing to be desired. The Quartet in A. minor by the master romanticist, Franz Schubert, was the last number, its soul-patisfying melodies rounding out a well-balanced program. An insistent audience clapped until the ensemble graciously gave an encore, the beautiful Andante Cantabile of Tschaikowsky. "As the audience reluctantly left the hall there was ho one who did not feel that he owed a debt vof gratitude to the artists for two golden hours of perfection, and to Bradley college of music for bringing bring-ing them there."

It refers to the Constitutional provision which designates all public institutions of learning as part of the public school system and specifies that the State Superintendent of Public Pub-lic Instruction is the head of that system. The article then points out that in some unaccountable manner, the institutions of higher learning learn-ing have got beyond the supervision super-vision of that official and are now a law unto themselves, and have set up and promoted a program pro-gram of competition at the expense ex-pense of the taxpayers. The article proposes the unification unifi-cation of these institutions under a common head, who in turn shall appoint a Chancellor. His function func-tion shall be to determine the fields of these respective institutions, institu-tions, the budgets, building programs pro-grams and in fact, all their operations. The issue also urges that state money shall be used for the upkeep up-keep of recognized state institutions institu-tions and shall not go to private concerns. Based upon their interest in public affairs, taxpayers are classified into three classes, the passive, the volcanic and the alert. Some grumble and grab, some spout and subside, while the few watch and work. START AIR SERVICE AUCKLAND, N.
