Adies) The pianoforte recital given last night in Hill auditorium by Alfred Cortot marked the Ann Arbor debut of that distinguished French artist and afforded one of the finest lxhibitions of pianistic art ever heard here. The audience was notably appreciative, and was as large as could be expect- ed in view of such distractions as the Michigan Opera premiere and the in- clement weather. Unsurpassed Here Local concertgoers who have long followed Ann Arbor nusical events must have sought vainy to recall any- thing in their experience surpassing Cortot's recital. From the first notes of Vivaldi's "Conceto da Camera" through a program of satisfying va- 1 riety, lie revealed himself to be a{ virtuoso of prodigious attainments. Endowed with an all-conquering tech- nical equipment, this side of his art never obtruded itself tat the expense of the musical. His touch is mascu- line, brilliantly clear and infinitely poetic. In the forte passages his vig-f or is tremendous, his pianissimos haveI the irridescent grace and precision of de Pachmann, while his management1 of tone coloring is absolutely impec- cable. An intellectual breadth and a keen emotional, sense co-ordinate these faculties in the most convincing exposition of i musical content we have ever heard.. Chopin's set of 24 preludes, Op., 28, was the outstanding feature of the program. Each of these exquisitely beautiful and) endlessly varied frag- ments is compQlte in itsolf, but togeth- er they form a unity of enchanting loveliness. Cdrtot played them in- comparably, infusng into each his powerful personality, yet maintaining perfectly the spirit in which they were conceived. His successhwas conspicu- ous in readings of the "raindrops"I prelude, No. 6; in the beautiful No. 14 which reminds us of f/3 finale to the "Funeral March" sonata; inNo. 15,, the most beautiful of all, with its de- lihtfulycontrasted portions in D ma-F jor and C sharp; and in No. 21 with its peculiar quavering figure and smooth cantilena.y Art Exceeds Substance Chopin was heard to less advan-' tage in his Andante Spianato in G major and his Polonaise in E major, Commemerating the 1922 Michigan mented upon.

FOR REPARATION EXPECT FINAL FIGURES TO AVAILABLE BY NOON TODAY BED RE-IMBURSEMENT BE- COMES ALL-UNIVERSITY Faculty Joins With Great Majority of Students to Repudiate Sunday Disorders Losses sustained by local theaters in the disorders of Sunday night of last week were practically all ascer-, tained last night, preliminary to the making of an all-University re-im- bursement for the damages which re- sulted. Although not all of the bills for the property which was destroyed have been turned in, it is expected that the final figures will be available by noon today. The check has been carefully made, and the idea of beingI fair to the students and faculty of the University, and to the theater owners alike, has prevailed. Disorders Deplored The desire to make the .reparation an all-University affair assumed that proportion Saturday when individual members of the faculty asked that' hey be given an opportunity to share n the offer of reparation. They "feel a joint responsibility of the entire University for the regrettable action ast Sunday night of some of our members", according to the state- ment made. With practically unanimity, the campus expresses its condemnation of1 he rowdy acts of a small minority., That the University has been thrown nto a bad light in the eyes of other schools and with the people of the state is said to be responsible for the widespread desire of students and fac- ulty to clear Michigan's name.

Ziegfield, you claim to glorify the American girl, but Michigan's Thes- pians glorify the American man. Tier- lin, your melodies have enthralled a jazz-loving people, you caused them to pass under the yoke of syncopation, but the songs of "In and Out" will live long after yours have been sunk in the well of oblivion. Gest, your productions have dazzled two contin- ents, but when Mimes takes to the road and America sees the opera, you wi'l have great need to exert your- self. Mimes has triumphed! "In and Out", the product of the fertile pen of Ed- win R. Meiss, '23, who also combined his musical talent with that of My- ron E. Chon, '23, is an opera extra- ordinary. It is a departure from the usual type of Michigan operas, giv- ing as much attention to the tevue as to the theme, while in former years one element was submerged' in the other. Gredtest Honor to Ames To Lionel Ames, '24, the leading lady of all Union operas, the lion's share of the honors are attributed. As Wilhelmina Vanderdunk, the love-sick Dutch niaiden, he displays adinfrable dramatic abiiity, 'and sings. love' bal- lads in a voice rich with. melody. Arthur Holden, "24; theJtivenile hero, carries his role in commenable manner-he is a clever actor, a good singer and a nimble dancer. Chon scores as a humorist and a saxophon- ist; James Dresback, '24, as Kate Smith, is chief laugh-producer of the performance; John P. Lawton. '24, proves to be an efficient deviser of swindle schemes, but fails to entice that pair of "fun-making fools", Pell and Mell, (Sherwood Jtidson, '25, and Buckley Robbins, '23). Carl Guske, grad, the he-modiste, is as typically temperamental as all members of this craft are, but like Howard: Stimpson, '24, as Hans Brinker, he does not have sufficient opportunity in the pay to show what he is actually capable of offering. tk Chicago Opera association, will ap- pear at 8 o'clock tonight in Hill audi- torium on the secdhd program of the Choral Union serIes' of concerts.
