Spread over ten days, the six con- certs and attendant features gave the community a series of performances from the artistic viewpoint quite com- parable to the high standards set by past seasons. Between 3,000 and 4,000 patrons at- tended every performance, including the Saturday afternoon children's mat- inee performance. The chorus of 1,200 children's voices was directed for the first time this year by John W. Beat- tie, supervisor of music in the pub- lic schools, who succeeded Osborne W. McConathy who had charge of this festival feature for many years. The matter of performance was a gen- uine credit to Mr. Beattie's training. Violinist Scores Success The playing of young Miss Lent, violinist of the occasion, was a matter of complete delight and interest to the audience. Saturday evening the Chicago Sym- phony orchestra played the five scores selected from the 80 symphonic com- positions entered in the $1,000 prize competition arranged by the festival association. The judges, Henry Had- ley, Howard Brockway and Adolf Wei- dig, awarded the prize to the number. "Tragic Overture" written by Edward Collins of Chicago. This was played by the orchestra in the final program of Tuesday evening. : Numbers by the A Cappella choir, directed by Dean Peter C. Lutkin, in- terspersed this program. Plan Next Year's Festival Monday evening the presentation of Brahms' "A German Requiem," with Mabel Garrison and Boris Saslawsky the soloists, scored a great success for the 660-voiced festival chorus. The A Cappella choir was met with enthu- siasm in its singing of Rachmaninoff's "Glory Be to God" and "Laud Ye the Name of the Lord." ; 2; Tuesday evening's soloists, Dusblina Giannini and Lawrence Tibbett, sing- ing a miscellaneous program with the chorus, gave the festival close a brilli- ant ending. Plans are already under way for an even more interesting sea-, son next May, according to the busi- ness manager, Fred Smith. ; WILMETTE CLUB OPENS ~ Wilmette Golf club formally opened its season with dinner dance Memorial Day.
