to perform os soloist at the American
premiere of a symphony written by
Leo Sowerby. This composition was
repeated in Hill Aditorium by Profes-
sor Brinkman when the Boston Sym-
phony appeared here in a Choral
Union concert. Professor Brinkman
was a student of Artur Schnabel,
pianist, who played here Tuesday.
The program which has been ar-
ranged includes:
Faure: Sonata for violin and piano,
Op. 13 (Professor Besekirsky and Pro-
fessor Brinkman).
Craxton: Come You Mary; Clough-
Leighter: Requiescat; Brinkman: The
Whistling Boy; Dunhill: The Cloths

Brahms: Intermezzo, Op. 76, No. 6
and Intermezzo, Op. 119, No. 3.
Chopin: Ballade, Op. 38 and Bal-
lade, Op. 23.

In his lecture on Monday, which
will be in English, Professor Hohfeld
will develop the work of Richard
Wagner from the literary aspects of
the composer's dramas. The speaker
will outline the form, style, substance
and development of the artist as a
dramatist, rather than as a composer.
Tuesday Professor Hohfeld will
speak on "Der Irdische Ausgand des
Faustdichtung Goethes." In this lec-
ture he will deal especially with the
conclusion of Faust and the signifi-
cance of Goethe as a representative
of activism.
Professor Hohfeld is probably the
most famous modern language teach-
er in the country, Professor Henry
A. Nordmeyer, chairman of the Ger-
man department, said yesterday, and
is widely known in language circles
for his work in building up the Ger-
man department of the University of
Wisconsin to the foremost position in
the country.

The Final Cut in Our

An independent survey was made recently
among professional men and women-lawyers,
doctors, lecturers, scientists, etc. Of those who said
they smoke cigarettes, more than 87% stated they
personally prefer a light smoke.
Mr. Grant verifies the wisdom of this pref.-
erence, and so do other leading artists of the
radio, stage, screen and opera. Their voices are
their fortunes. That's why so many of them
smoke Luckies. You, too, can have the throat pro.
tection of Luckies -a light smoke, free of certain
harsh irritants removed by the exclusive process
"It's Toasted". Luckies are gentle on the throat.
