PENNSYLVANIA REJECTS
BOSSISM.
With former governor Gifford
Pinchot assured of the Republican
nomination for governor in the
Pennsylvania primary, a state in
which the Republican nomination
means election, one would be led to
believe that Mr. William Vare has
again come out of the fight with
empty hands, and that Pennsylvan-
ia has escaped another state boss
On the face of'the matter, Mr
Vare did get one candidate pas
the voters, Secretary of Labo
James J. Davis. Secretary Davis
however, cannot be classed asa
machine man. Acknowledging th
fact that he would have to carr
Philadelphia to beat Grundy, h
made an alliance with Vare whe
the latter offered to support him
It is, however, ridiculous to suppos
that once in the senate, Davis wil
take orders from Vare. Actually
Vare has not got one of his me
into office.
An analysis of the election result
show that the Philadelphia mach
ine will have to get more than cit
votes to gain the desired control o
the state. Francis Shunk Brown
the Vare gubernatorial candidat
carried only six counties out of 6
Gifford Pinchot carried all the res
except one which went to the we
candidate, Phillips. And, strange
ly enough, Pinchot won by th
same 10,000 majority that he wo
by in 1922 over the Vare candidat
and that carried John Fisher, th
present incumbent, to victory ov
the Philadelphia machine in 192
That Pennsylvania distinct
does not want a state boss agai
was shown by the Pinchot suppor
- His campaign was against th
Philadelphia machine. By shov
ing the municipal debt figuresc
the city, and by showing that th
would appear in the state treasu
if the Vare men got into office, I
slid into office when Phillips poll
,enough of the wet votes to c
Brown's lead. The state has be
n saved from bossism until the ne
s election.

Editorial Comment
WANTED: AN EDUCATIONAL
MESSIAH.
(From the Cornell Daily Sun)
s What Mr. Joseph Wood Krut
I had to say on college students
the interview published in Satu
day's Sun seems to us sound a.
intelligent, if not particularly co
structive. The noted critic a
philosopher whose book, The Mo
ern Temper, is one of the o
'standing contributions to the i
terpretation of the present-d
r. philosophy of youth, comes c
_ with a statement that no thoug
ful person will want to deny, b
it is a statement peculiarly uni
N. spiring because of its intrinsic p4
ks simism.
i- " . . . The collegiate generation
y, not . . . cynical in its outlook up
is life and intellectual pursuits, b
ve . . .indifferent," Mr. Krutch says
he his discussion of the modern u
r, dergraduate. For this indiffere
n- he blames educational meth
I which do not stimulate creat
as impulses. "The students who cro
,- the institutions of learning ref
ts to follow any but the well-worn
-- in thinking, and their instruct
1- can only lead them along ti
- line." He seems to feel that a str

tr- limitation and regulation of ui
e- versity enrollment would go faru1
ig ward changing things for the b
to ter.
a- Well, what we get from]
er Krutch 'is the same thing that m
ed enlightened critics of modernE
ucational methods are continua
on talking about . . . and not mu
hie more. Dr. Meicklejohn andl
i- Hutchins and Dr. Little have
d- been trying to work the thingt
ch on an essentially practical ba
a- All of these gentlemen ad
e- that the starting point is with1
as student himself. Until you can
ng still in the student mind a nec
of sary curiosity about learnings
e- general, your problem is almost i
a- possible to solve. The diale
e- method, successfully used byc
he of Cornell's and America's great
ad teachers, Prof. Lane Cooper, see
w. to us to be the best way out of1
an difficulty. But such courses as
v's do not get those who are intell
his tually indifferent. These are
est ones who rush for the courses
irs economics and mathematics of f
ance.

a modern American youth will h
ar to come as a result of dra
n- changes in pedagogical meth
n- which will include reorganizat

A Review.
George Poinar's last encore gave
an extremely pleasurable feeling.
I chose to see in it corroboration
of feelings. I got during the recital.
I chose to see it as revealing with
certainty qualities in his taste I
had enjoyed discovering during the
recital but had been doubtful
about. The encore might not
have been so significant but I
choose to. think it so.
Mr. Poinar had led a student en-
semble;in a performance of the
Mozart Quartet in D major very
intelligently, smoothly fitting his
talents to the demands of ensem-
ble. Then he had played a group
in the Bach period with striking
vigour and intelligent sympathy
with fine eccentricities of the mu-
sic of that period. This music
seemed to please his temperament;
that is, he seemed to find his tem-
perament expressed in the music
and could thus enjoy the privilege
of playing the music and ignoring
his temperament. It was fine play-
ing, the best student violin work I
have heard in Ann Arbor.
Then he; played' the Mendelssohn
Concerto-very :well too. His tech-
nique was entirely adequate to this
naiTely 'virtuosic music. But his
temperament seemed not so pleas-
ed. There was self-consciousness
increasingly apparent throughout
the performance, notably in the
Songs without - words - like slow
movement He was thoroughly
aware-too aware-that this 'was
romantic music and that to suc-
i cessfully project- it he would have
to work out by reference to extra-
musical considerations-that is
considerations of temperament
And hedid work it out that way
The self-consciousness came from
the fact that he was unsympathetic
to the temperamental qualities he
was employing. Somewhat similar
to Heea irr this way, there was
an underlying scorn for the ob-
vious, naive emotionalism a suc-
cessful performance of the Men-
delssohn Concerto requires. Bu'
unlike Heifetz, he consciousl
strove for this emotionalism tha
t his performance might be correc
a as interpretation, rather tha
merely amazing as virtuosity
There was only the self-conscious
iess to betray his feeling abou
the Concerto.
0 He returned in encore to play thi
0 Andante from Bach's Third Sol
Sona .This I interpreted as as
serting his integrity of taste. Fo
here a fine reverence to the tex
was adequate; the music did th
rest.He was here completely ab
sorbed ii the music, yet expressing
e This ws expression solely throug
e music; rather than expressio
e through the intermingling o
ie music and temperament. His per
.f ormance was so fine (it was th
s best number of the evening) tha
one felt this is what Mr. Poina
n likes to play and how fine it is t
ly have him feel that way!
I don't mean to dramatize m
reations but hope that my drama
tization is correct. For the experi
ence of the recital as an experi

menting and then a final assertio:
ig of good taste was thrilling. Mor
9 soberly I might add what is im
e plied in the rest of the article: tha
r Mr. Poi'nar is technically ver;
sound: good tone-quality, sensitiv
m1 bowing, phrases carefully molded
a intensities precisely and deftly pro
11i duced. It was a fine recital, ver
er well attended and received.
