While Strudwick was holding

thence Strudwick's name was in
lights, at least so goes the
story, which may or may not be
merely good publicity.
Another stage anecdote,
that has been giving us some
little trouble in figuring out, is
about Lhevinne. How does he
manage to place his hands in
" warm water and drive to the
(Continued from page one)
his anecdote concerning his first
meeting with the great pianist
and composer Anton Rubenstein.
At the age of f ourteep Lhevinne
while studying in Berlin was to
play on a students' program on
which also Rachmaninoff and
Scriabin were to appear. ;
"For weeks before," he relat
ed, "my teacher had been tell
ing me how important the per
formance was, but nevertheless
I dawdled along and practiced
rather aimlessly. The night be
fore the concert I rehearsed for
Him. I was temble ahd he "said
so furiously. After fifteen" min
utes of listening to his criticism,
I realized what an ass I'd been
and broke into tears. I was
nearly, crushed when he told me
I could not play , the next eve
ning. However, he told me -to
come to the hall anyway. That
.cuucu even wuidc.
When Lhevinne entered the
concert hall the following eve
ning he ran to the printed pro
gram and saw to his dismay that
his name was listed as one of
the performers. Bewildered, he
asked his teacher, "What does
this mean?"
"You play tonight, of course."
Looking , around the audience
the youthful pianist saw not
only Rubenstein but also Tschai
kowsky and Rimsky-Korsakof
in the audience. Staere-frifrht
with fear. He could never go
through with it, he felt.
Yet when he went forward to
the piano to play he found him
self so inspired by the presence
of Rubenstein, his idol and at
that time the veritable god of
music, that, as he says, "I played
without thinking ever once of
being afraid. At fourteen, after
all, things pass quickly."
When Lhevinne had finished
the difficult selections, Ruben
stein, whose vision was dimmed
with age, peered at the program
and asked who he was. He nod
ded and smiled as he prophesied,
"That young man has a great
future.

age amounted to 2.77, and -the
man's to 3.30.
"
The average for upperclass
men turned out to be higher
than the freshmen. The fresh
man score was 3.14 as compared
with the classes above the first
year group which gained a rat
ing of 3.13. Both these aver
ages are higher than the 1932
fall period when the freshmen
made 3.60 and" the upperclass
men, 3.23.
Compared with the average
of 2.31 made by the top stand
ing fraternity, the lowest lodge
scholastically made 3.88. The
tabulation shows 18 societies
above the general fraternity
average and 11 below.
Pi Kappa Phi ranks fourth in
the fraternity standings with
2.60. . Following this comes
Beta Theta Pi with a standing
of 2.62. Sigma Alpha Epsilon
rated 2.69 and Pi Beta Phi had
2.71. Phi Kappa Sigma scored
2.72.
The rating of the remaining
fraternities in the first 12 are:
Delta Kappa Epsilon, 2.75; Al
pha Tau Omega, 2.80 ; Zeta Psi.
2.90; Tau Epsilon Phi, 2.94.
These statistics include the
records of graduate and profes
sional scholars as well as undergraduates.
