June 19, 1926 WINNETKA TALK Fund Provides for Church Music Chair at Northwestern U. Church music which has not been featured extensively by any American school of music, is to be benefited by a gift of $100,000 from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, President Walter Dill Scott of Northwestern uni- versity announced at the last concert of the North Shore Music Festival at Patten gymnasium, Evanston. The recipient of the notable gift is the School of Music of Northwestern uni- versity. Thus, the century-old hymnal and the later development of the highly trained church choir will bene- fit through this gift, as it provides for a special chair in church music at a school of music with reputation second to none. "In order that progress may be made in the development of music in Amer- ica, intensive work must be carried on in various special fields," President Scott said in his statement. "Relatively little is being done in a constructive way to make progress in church music, although the necessity for such pro- gress is universally recognized. The Carnegie Corporation of New York has decided that the corporation should do something to promote the fine arts, and. to that end is offering financial co-operation to various educational in- stitutions. The corporation has decided that work on church music should be begun at once and to that end has appropriated $100,000 for a permanent endowment and has directed that this work shall be carried on, beginning September, 1926, at the School of Music of Northwestern university under the direction of Dean Peter C. Lutkin." President Scott in his concert ad- dress also recalled that a year ago a matter of $50,000 was pledged for the construction of a new music school building, that the objective is $500,000, with the ultimate sum not yet sub- scribed. "Dean Lutkin and all of the citizens of the north shore are waiting the day when a donor or donors may be found who will make a reality of the building which has been the hope of all lovers of music of both the north shore and Chicago," Dr. Scott added.
