Practically all of Baltimore was present ! The judges were impressive, one being the music critic of the paper, another the head of the Peabody Music Institute, which was the last word the very last comma in music in Baltimore. The third was the conductor of the Baltimore Symphony orchestra. The Matterhorris of music. The other contestants poured in. 23 in all, loaded, cocked and primed. Depressing! Some of them played exceedingly well, as well as Larry maybe better and Larry got lower and lower in his mind. - Larry noticed that all of them played jazz. For that matter, jazz was all Larry had planned in his repertoire. He said to himself, "I'm going to be different. At least, that will attract attention." The only classical piece he could remember was Beethoven's Minuet in G. He had only his memory to depend de-pend upon, and his memory was as full of holes as a Swiss cheese. But he tore into it, did the best he could. Not very hopefully, for he knew he was bad, but he also knew he was doing something different After aH, there was a sameness to the selection of the other contestants, no one outstanding, outstand-ing, no one too easy to recall. When the judges Ktttraed frota dderatioa, rhey announced an-nounced Larry was tfct winner. He was the only one wW played a classical sdeftjan, and h was the opijr otrtstandkf contestant.
