such a system at Elon College next

Recognizing the fact that the
North State Conference baB clubs
generally play a slow-down de
fensive game. Coach Miller com
mented that his CampbellsviUe
Junior College squad had bested
strong Lenoir Rhyne in one of two
practice games prior to last sea
son. It must be noted here that a
junior coUege team besting the
NAIA champion of the two Caro-
linas would indicate that strong
material e^ould be forthcoming at
Elon next year.
Five boys made the trip down

they intended to enroll here next

Sahlmann Recital
(Continued rrom Page One)
The second half or the recital
opened with Granada’s Spanish
Dances, Op. 5, played with the
proper spirit of abaneion appro-
jpriate to this suite, whieh should
and did sound spontaneous, just
as if the dances came at once to
the pianist.
Three short piano pieces com
posed by Prof. Patrick Johnson,
of the. Ekm music faculty, offered
an interesting change of pace.
The compositions themselves are
unpretentious and delightful, and
Sahlmann played them with feel
ing and sincere simpKcity. The
dosinfi selection was Prokofieff’s
’Toratta, Op. 11, performed with
a .'.-uper-abundance of technical
facility to surmount the many dif
ficulties of this demanding work.
The large and enthusiastic au
dience demanded and received an
encore, Scriahini’e Nocturne for
Left Hand, a work of unashamed
romanticism, which, in this sen
sitive performance, was assurance
that Prof. Sahlmann’s art is ex
pansive and ample to the require
ments of any aspect of the vast
piano literature.
The recital was nch and re
warding. Prof. Sahlmann has al
ways performed in the past with
great distinction, but the recital
of May 5th was a triumph in every
sense, an unqualified triumph of
mind, technique, understanding
and maturity which wiU not soon
