"The new Rubensten"-that is a dar- ing appellation to give to any pianist in these days when the tradition of the great Russian virtuoso still survives; but after the performance of Josef Lhe-' vinne in University hall last evening, one can understand at least the enthu- siasm which applied it to him; and can, moreover, appreciate the justice of the more critical praise which has been showered upon him. From every standard of the art of pianoforte-play- ing, it was a wonderful accomplish- ment. And it is greatly to the credit of the large audience that it judged his playing with discrimination, evidently distinguishing much that was finest in it. The art of Lhevinne is compounded of all that is best. Beyond the mere technical perfection, which would alone place him in' rank with the great virtuosi, he brings to his playing all the poetic resources of a profoundly simple and serene soul-and that is after all the last that can be said. Every phrase is uttered with finesse, the "Fine feeling," and with a poise and sincerity that carry it direct to the hearer with its complete and deeply realized meaning There is not a note which has not been created in his con- ception, and does not consequently at- tain an individual beauty in the play- ing. And for blending, the just bal- ance of all the elements in a chord fj instance, or the perfect joining o sound to sound in the melodic se- quence, that has perhaps never been more exquisitely done. Program Rendered Seriously One has too, to thank Lhevinne for a serious program, seriously presented. Of Beethoven, he selected one of the philosophic third group of Sonatas, the seldom heard Opus 101. In the sober and meaningful first movement,' the Allegretto, he displayed a remark-- ably extended gradation of tone; sel- dom going above a "piano," he manag- ed to convey the impression of an al- most infinite dynamic variety. And the contrapuntal last movement was a marvelous thing, with its clear and delicate voice-playing. The Mozart "Pastorale" was as one would wish al- ways to hear Mozart; full of light and grace, its fluttering embellishments and flowing runs really liquid in their clarity.- The program also offered two of the noblest compositions of Schu- (Continued on Page 4.)

Ten candidates were nominated yes- terday by the junior classes of the lit- erary, engineering and law depart- ments to fill the vacancies in the Stu- dent Council.

Muller and S. Dickinson. Junior engineers-Kirk Hoagg, Ed- die Hancock, Scott Hopkin and Will Schepler. Junior laws--Norman Read and Robert L. Mayall The Junior engineers voted to send flowers to Miss Helen Hamilton who is very ill and will have to leave Col-V lege. Except for a few slight changes, the class constitution as presented by the student council, was adopted., Each classwillIhold elections next Monday at which time half the num- ber nominated will be chosen to rep- resent it on the Council. PROF.HOBBS TO REPRESENT U. OF M. AT LONDON MEETING Prof. Wm. H. Hobbs, director of the Geological laboratory, has been ap- pointed by President Hutchins to rep- resent the University of Michigan at the two hundred-fiftieth anniversary celebration of the Royal Society of London. The exercises will take place July 16-18, and will be held in London. Having been granted a year's leave of absence by the university, it will be convenient for Prof. Hobbs to attend these exercises, since he intends to be abroad at that time. He will be away from Michigan dur- I ing the school year of 1912-'13, and his place will be taken durnig that time by Prof. Frank Carney who is now at the head of the geological departmentd of Denison University, at Granville,, Ohio.
