McCartney, forty-four year oldr bachelor, who is pastor of the Arch street church, Philadelphia, Penn.,' and ultra-fundamentalist andl the leader in the movement to remove1 Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick from the pulpit of the First Presbyterian' church, New York city, for alleged heresy, was elected moderator at this afternoon's session of the 136th gen- eral assembly of the Presbyterian church in the United States of Amer- ica. Mr. McCartney vas elected on the first ballot over Dr. Harold R. Berg- man, a professor at Princeton Theo- logical seminary, who styled himself neither a fundamentalist nor modern- ist, but a constitutionalist. Eighteen votes was the margin of the Philadelphian's victory, the vote being McCartney 464, Bergman 446. The issue of fundamentalism was sharply drawn. William Jennings Bryan, a vigorous leader among the fundamentalists, placed Dr. McCart- ney's name in nomination. Dr., Bryan, who is attending the convention as an elder commissioner from the Tito Schipa The brilliant tenor, of the Chicago Civic Opera company will be one of the principal artists at the fourth May Festival concert tonight in Hill audi- torium.

Renders on It is interestin'g and highly signifi- cant that a major portion of the pres- ent May Festival is being devoted to modern, even hyper-modern music., Such a policy of premieres and first performances must not only result in added recognition from outside sourc- es, but will contribute a new zest to the recurring numbers. It is necessary, of course, to season' contemporary compositions with the recognized classics, but: the inter- mingling produces a decidedly satis- factory synthesis of the best in all musical ages. The point is that mod- ern harmony represents the zeething pulsing current of our era, and an or- ganization smuggly contended only with the conventional forms lies in a state of complacent coma that very surely and justly will spell its par- ticular doom. The program last evning stands as an admirable justification of the dir- ector's new policy. The opening num- ber, John Alden Carpenter's "A Pil- grim's Vision", represented an unusu- ally dignified and serious phase of the composer's style, indirect contrast to his flippant.,.Jazzical "Krazy Cat." It was admirably executed and should stand among the more worthy sym- phonic poems in modern American music. Mme. Claire Dux, the first soloist of the concert, was a striking example of tie marked contrast between the 'rench cocotte and the buxom German frau in Miss, or Mrs. Krueger. The for-! mer is slender, good looking, and im- hued with a superabundance of Gallic verve. She has at her command a bag j of a dozen or more impudent, perfect- obvious and very charming stager tricks which snatch and hold you from the moment she hurries onto the plat- form until she gives an awkard, fascin- ating bow and hurries away. As much Ias you may deny it. she has a vibrant "Pastorale d'Ete" by Honegger was interesting, first because it comes, from a member of the famous "Groupe de Six", and also because it is boldly modern. Its theme, as the title sug- gests, is strangely primitive and strangely compelling in its apparent simplicity. The work is suggestive of Edmund Dulac's Irish interludes,j and similarly appealing in its rugged vitality. Miss Lent, as everyone was ready to believe, is unquestionably a genius. The Bruch Concerto, to begin with, is a very beautiful, compelling com- position-more than can be claimed, for instance, of the Mendelssohn Con- certo-offering adequate opportunities for the customary technical display I without marring the underlying melo-! dic theme, a Very essential element to our untutored appreciation. The pivot of the entire concert, "Seadrift" by Delius founded on Walt' Whitman, merits the sincerest en- thusiasm. The music is peculiarly un- dulating, haunting in its careful tonal combinations.

Instruction in the ways of the men of the forest was given the A- wenydds previously to the march to the sacred chamber and was. contin- ued after the arrivalrthere so that none should fail to grasp the funda- mentals of the ancient order.'

In an interview with the heretofore unknown leader of this successful par- ty, Ralph Byers, it was stated thpt the' secret, but not underhanded, work of the party leaders had made it possi- ble to score such a sweeping victory. Freida Deikoff backed by both of the two traditional parties was unan- imously elected to the position of the best girl student, after the third par- ty had withdrawn the name of Harry Hoey as a candidate for this position. Art Graves won clear cut victory over Julian Mack ii the race for the niche in the Lower Crypt for the best man student. Wal. Scherer had no oppositior for the'position of the most bashful man, another evidence of the u oreseen power of the third party.. The honor of being the biggest grind went to James Rice, with 'Lawrence Dooge trailing behind. Mary Hays won the furious race for the position of the best athlete by defeating Ed Stark.
