THIRD SYHPHONY WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1024 DAZIZLES HEARER Dasch Players Give Brilliant| Portrayal By MUSIC CRITIC Maybe New Trier hall has contain- ed more people than it did last Monday evening, but it seemed as if all the able-bodied citizens of Glencoe, Win- netka, Wilmette, and Kenilworth had assembled in the aforesaid hall on the aforesaid evening. The occasion was the third concert of the 1924-25 series by the Symphony Players of Chicago. When the writer of this review arrived at 8:15 be got the only good remaining seat. Director Dasch presented to his audience for an opening number Goldmarks' exotic overture, "Sakun- tala." The receiver read the pro- gram notes which told all about Sakuntala, "brought up in a peni- tentiary (neither do I) grove by the chief of a sacred caste of priests, as his daughter. "King Dushianta be- comes "inflamed with love for her." They marry, are later separated, and eventually are reunited, living hap- pily, etc. Sheer Enjoyment The reviewer furnished with this clue tried to follow the course of the music, failed, and then gave himself 'up to an enjoyment of the instru- mental sounds for their own sakes. The second movement from Cesar Franck's, D minor symphony, which followed, was delightfully played; the writer only wished that the orchestra had given the symphony in its en- tirety. Immediately succeeding this selection came a scherzo from Bizet's suite, "Roma." This was very well received, the applause being vigorous and long continued. Memorial to Puccini The first half of the program closed with Massenet's "Les Erinnyes," made up of three movements: Prelude, Scene Religieuse, and Finale. The audience so enjoyed Carl Brueckner's playing of the cello solo in the In- vocation, a portion of the Scene Re- ligieuse, that it demanded a repeti- tion. At the very close of the first half the approval was enthusiastic, and the orchestra took advantage of the occasion to play a selection from La Boheme, in memory of its com- poser, Puccini, who died recently. After the intermission three pieces were presented: Mokowski's suite, "From Foreign Lands," a duo for Viola and English horns by Ippolitoff- Ivanoff, and a transcription of Liszt's Polonaise in E Major. Messrs. Esser and Napolilli distinguished themselves tate brokers. now drafting a bill to embody changes which would strengthen their present li- cense measure. The California State Real Estate commission has indicated that the present provision of the Cali- fornia law permitting a competency test will be administered so as to insure a gradual tightening up of the state's standards for admission to license.

Ontario real estate boards are look- ing forward to the passage of a license act for the province of Ontario at the coming legislative session. There is no movement going on within the vocation of real estate more signifi- cant than the movement for further and better real estate license laws. A sur- vey of action taken by the various state real estate associations which have been in session during the past three months and a glance into the legislative pro- grams advanced by the organized real es- tate men of the various states indicates how profound the conviction has become that it is a first duty of the men within the real estate business to secure the setting up of state standards for men acting as real estate brokers. Want Expert Operators It is notable that in a number of states the men in 'the real estate business and the general public have become so con- vinced of the value of such laws that they are ready to go a step further. They are strengthening existing license laws by requiring applicants for license not only to be satisfactory in character and responsibility but to be well enough versed in the technic of real estate tran- sactions as not to endanger the interests of their clients through ignorance.
