THE MORNING STAR, WILMINGTON, N.'c MONDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1921. SIX Society Annual Meetings Mnric Clnbs The annual meeting of the State ; Federation of Music clubs will be held In Greensboro, March 14 and 15. In connection- with this meeting:, the North Carolina state contests for young professional musicians will be held. All contestants, club presidents and delegates to the state meeting: will be guests of the Euterpe club while in Greensboro. Mrs. Frank A. Selberling-. of Akron. O., president of the National Federa tion of Music clubs, and Miss Nan B. Stephens, of Atlanta, president of the South Atlantic district, will be present at this meeting-. This fact alone has aroused an unusual de'gree of interest in the meeting, as these two officers are among the best known in the mus ical field in the country. Another very interesting feature is the contest for young professional musicians, which will be held during: the meeting. A number of young artists have signified their intention to enter, and others may do so, if their application is for warded immediately. The number of. clubs belonging to the State federation has increased materially since the last meeting, and all indications lead us to expect the most successful meeting in the history of the musical organiza tions of the state. A statement by Mrs. J. Norman Wills, president of the federation concerning junior and juvenile music clubs dis closes that the National Federation has for its aims: To make America the musical center of the. world; to make music useful in the civic life of Amer ica, and to promote and develop Amer ican musical'art. The federation has worked during the past 28 years for the recognition of American music; has given prizes for American compositions; has ob ' tained a hearing for the work of Amer ican composers; has assisted the young professional artists by means of state listrict and national contests; enter tained the soldiers in the cantonments during the World War, and gave them thousands of small musical instru ments, and has done more than any other organization to establish credits for music in the schools. In striving to accomplish its aims, it is now organizing Junior and Ju venile Music clubs in the grammar and high schools of the country. It is needless to say that musical education must begin ia childhood. Children frequently rebel at what seems to them uninteresting lessons, and practice, if at all, unwillingly. A club well or ganized and properly conducted fur nishes Just the stimulus needed to cause them to feel interest in their work. . The National Federation of Music clubs issues books Jf special programs for these clubs. Mrs. Frances Elliott Clark, of Philadelphia, chairman of the educational department, is the author of the programs, with constitution and suggested order of procedure for the meetings. The boys and girls conduct their own meetings, thus obtaining practice in parliamentary proceedings. The aim of the Junior and Juvenile r-lubs is to reach as many young peo ple as possible in an effort to en courage them to really love music, and to develop an . understanding and appreciation of it, as well as of its sister arts, drama, literature and draw ing;, i Those who participate in the work of these clubs for young students will I find them a source of profit, and both parents and teachers who realize the value of socializing the study of music will be delighted with the re sults. Through the agency of the club, music and music lessons become an important part of the play and com munal .life of the child. 'The -fact that he may be called upon to appear in a .'iub program furnishes an incentive !or careful preparation. . Mrs. Ralph I'olk, of Miami, Florida, chairman of Junior and Juvenile Musra clubs, will be' very glad to forward the books containing the constitution and programs to anyone interested. .; Wimingtitn Student amrd The current number of the Caroi nian. pubitation of the students at North Carolina College for Women, of which Miss Helen Dunn Creasy, of this city, is assistant managing editor, car ries a story of election of officers of 'he fctudent government association, in which ii is noted that Miss Miirie Jonitz, of this city, was made presi--nt; Miss Susie Roberts and Miss Lila Vard Koontz. also of Wilmington, treasurer and chief marshal, respec tively. The story follows: "Wednesday evening at the regular mass meeting, officers of the Student Government association were elected for the year 1921-22- Five of 22's most capable and outstanding members, namely. Marie Bonita. Lila Ward Koontz,' Mildred Price. Mable Stamper and Branson Price were candidates tor presidency. "Marie Bonitz. from Wilmington, was chosen because of her competency, personality, democracy and every other requisite for this office. Marie Bonitz has made an overwhelming suc cess of everything she. has under taken during her three years in col lege, only this year she, as cheer leader, led the junior class to triumph in the song contests as well as she. as ehairman ol college social committee, led the whole student body and fac ulty to happiness at college party. She takes part with interest in every ac tivity on the campus from athletics to Y. W. C. A. 'Unlike most elections, enthusiasm kept up during the entire election. The other officers were voted on with just as much care and concern as was the president. The president-elect is for tunate in having such a splendid staff of co-workers as the following officers: iVce-president. Branson Price; secre tary, Mary Bell Perm; treasurer. Susie Roberts; Are chief. Kate Mitchell; cheer leader. Dorothy Clement; chief marshal, Lila Ward Koontz." The Carolinian also notes that Ed ward F. Shumway.' well-known in this city, of the Community Service. Inc.. of New York, has been teaching commu nity singing at;the college. Organ Recital at St. James' Prof. Paris Meyers, organist of St. James' Episcopal church, this evening at 8 o'clock, will give the "first of a series of four organ recitals to be rendered durine the Lenten season. Tonight Professor Meyers will render i eight selections in which he will be assisted by the church choir. One of the features of this evening's program will be the rendition of Mozart's "Gloria." by the well known organist. A tsordial Invitation is extended to the public. FLOOD DEFIES SLEMP IN GERRYMANDER CASE Democrat Tells Republican He Isn't Afraid of Him WASHINGTON. Feb. 13. Represen tative Flood. Democrat, of Virginia, chairman of the Democratic congres sional committee, said in a statement yesterday he did not believe the leg islature of Virginia would be affected in "the silghtest degree." by the state ment of Representative Slemp. Repub lican, Virginia, Friday, regarding re districting the state. "The white people of Virginia," Mr. Flood said, "have had to face force bill eRpu'blicans and those who advo cated a reduction of their representa tion before, and never Quailed before them. TJhey aided in the 70's under the leadership of Samuel J. Randell in defeating force bill Republicans; they aided in defeating them in the 90's under the leadership of German, Dan iel and Faulkner, and they will have to defeat them again and I believe will be as successful against Tink ham and Slemp as they have been against force bill Republicans in the past." Continuing, Mr Flood said: "Mr. Slemp represents a district now wJh more than 300,000 population, and some districts of Virginia have less than 160,000. Under the appor tionment bill, as it passed the house of representatives, the proper popula tion for a congressional district is 243,000. The legislature of Virginia will, as far as possible and practi cable, carry out this work whether it eliminates Mr. Slemp from congress or not and without the slighest fear of any harm coming to the state from his threats."

' Three days and the fate of baseball in Wilmington will be known. Today, Tuesday and Wednesday " will be his tory when, the soliciting committee, appointed by the ways and means com mittee of the temporary organization of baseball enthusiasts, will -make Its report and the appointed executives will take one of two courses either get in the proposed Eastern Carolina league or stay out. It is not stretching that which the father of his country invariably told to say that the smaller towns men tioned for membership in the league are ready to go. New Bern, Kinston and some of the other possibilities have got their backers and all they await is something from the biggest city mentioned for membership in the wheel. That the "something" will be forthcoming is not . to be doubted that is, if those "who have, in the lan guage of the promoters, been "housing" for the pastime will only come across with something a deal more tangible than a flock of flattering words. The canvass will continue through today, tomorrow and Wednesday, when a report will be made to the executive committee as to the progress achieved. If insufficient, good-bye old pastime. Which simply means that the crisis has arrived; the time to subscribe for stock is not only ripe it is here. league of nations sought jurisdiction over, and that the Greeks, aa a whole, intend to show that Fritz has, been talking through his hat. Mebbe so; Friday night's engagement here may prove a lot. The sailors of the Seminole fill a void In Wilmington sporting circles. The open air sparring shows staged on the dock lare going to draw bigger and bigger crowds as the cards im prove and as the sportsmen here abouts become more firmly addicted to the sparring game. The show last Friday evening drew a capacity crowd it filled Water street and the steps of the custom house as well as the decks of the cutter and the next one. slated for the first Mondav in March, fair weather prevailing, should pull out even more customers. The Buffalo club of the International league, the fastest class AA loop in the country, has completed arrange ments to train at Durham, alternating in the use of the Bulls' playing field with Manush's Bovines. George (Hooks) Wiltse, former star pitcher of the New York Giants in the days of Christy Mathewson, Joe McGlnnlty. Roger Breshnahan and other lumina ries who have faded, is the boss of the Bisons. The lack of a ball yard here kept Wilmington fans from seeing some fast clubs in action. A week or so ago a letter was received from the business manager of Hhe Rochester team of the International league wanting to know if a park would, be available for-" exhibition games be tween the Ints and some major ag gregations. There is no lot, and the business manager was so informed. George Stalllngs, erstwhi "Miracle Man," is manager and chief owner of the Ints, and he has a fast gang rounded up, repots assert. The chance for the Wilmington high basketeers to grab off the honors in the eastern part of the state bright ened considerably Saturday evening when the high quint from the capital city were subdued by an overwhelming score. The feat of the locals in hold ing the visting cagers scoreless dur ing the entire second portion of the bill has not been equalled anywhere this year so faras is known. u. That hot airish-dope dream of pro moters . to form a Continental league, has busted kcrbang. and no negro teams will be found representing the various states. The Continentals', touted as a rival of the major wheels, was supposed to be made up of one team from each state they had Cam den, N. J., slated for "New Jersey" but the intended ones failed to fall for the chatter, and Ban Johnson and other organized ball leaders are once again secure.
