Farbman Symphonietta
Opens Concert Series
Audience Calls
For Severn!
Encores
Twelve men and a girl sent the
auditorium resounding with applause
at the opening of this year’s concert
and lecture series. The group com
prised the Farbman String Symphoni
etta.
Miss Edith Schiller, pianist, was the
assisting artist. After the concert
the members of the symphonietta
were surrounded by students to seek
autographs, musical knowledge and
just general introductions. When
asked to name his musicians, Mr.
Farbman laughed and said, “You
would ask me that!” There began a
humorous game in which the whole
orchestra joined. It seemed that al
most no one knew how to spell the
men’s names—including the men
themselves. Someone lent a fiddle-
case to be used as a writing table,
and the resulting names were some
thing like this: Harry Rosoff, Myer
AdofF, Henry Pekalin, Leopold Teras-
pulsky, Rosario Celentaro, and Samuel
Hollingsworth. All of the men hailed
from New York except three, who
came from Boston, Connecticut and
Alabama. “Be sure to underline that
Alabama,” said the Southern gentle
man. “Oh, Boy!”
The program for the evening was:
Concerto Grosso D Minor Vivaldi
Allegro, Intermezzo, Allegro
moderato
Serenade Tschaikowsky
Pezzo in forma di Sonatina, Waltz,
Intermezzo, Allegro moderato
Intermission
Fantasie Impromptu Chopin
Ballad in G Minor Chopin
Edith Schiller
La Oracion del Torror Turina
Turkey in the Straw....George Steiner
Both Miss Schiller and the Sym
phonietta played two encores each.
This musical group also opened
Davidson’s concert and lecture series
with a performance last night.

Taps Six New Members

And Three Juniors At Fall Service
Dr. Johnston
Speaks About
Americanideas
With the beginning of a new series
of chapel programs on current topics.
Dr. Frontis Johnston, of Davidson
College was presented Thursday,
October 23. Dr. Johnston is well
known throughout the state as an
authority on politics. He spoke to
the student body on “What an Amer
ican Ought to Believe.”
America is now on the edge of a
precipice. There is a great need for
something firm to hold to, and De
mocracy fills this need. It has rigid
basic ideas, but it allows the indi
vidual to think as he likes. American
democracy was founded to try to
solve the problem of liberty to man
on the one hand and law and order
on the other. England had tried to
do this but was unsuccessful. At
first the American democracy was too
extreme, but now our democracy is a
compromise beween liberty and order.
Democracy is composed of three es
sential parts—economic, political, and
spiritual. The economic freedom of
the United States came first and
afforded equal opportunities for
wealth to all.
On Wednesday morning, October
22, the local chapter of Sigma Mu,
