Artistry At UK Coliseum

Heifetz To Present
Concert Program
Here Monday Night

By Ed (‘offman

Jascha Heifctz. one of the greates:
vrolirnsts of our times. will appear
in concert in Memorial Coliseum at
8:15 pm. Monday.

Deems Taylor. the noted music
critic and composer. said of this
artist. “He has only one rival. one

violinist whom he is trying to beat.
and that is himself."

Heifetz started studying the violin
at the age of three in his native
land of Russia. At the age of four
he was accepted as a student at the
Royal School of Music in Vilna,
Five years later he began work at
the St. Petersburg Conservatory.

“'HILE STILL IN his early teens.
he started making public appear—
ances in Russia. In 1914 he ventured
into Austria and Germany. The
German critics hailed him as a IlD~
isheel artist He made his American
debut in 1917 in Carnegie Hall.

Since his debut in America he has
travelled all over the world giving
concerts. During the war he made
two extensive tours overseas to en
tertain the servicemen. The artist
commented that he found that some
70 to 80 percent of the service men
liked serious music.

IIEIFETZ. WHO HAS been an
American citizen for over 20 years
lives in California when he isn't on
tour. His hobbies correspond to an
average citizen‘s. He enjoys fishing
and gardening. He also has a val-
uable collection of rare violins. Thi
collection includes two violins madt
by the famous Stradivarius.

Heifetz's almost perfect techniqut
is a legend in the musical world. ;
story about this talent is told or.
him by some of his friends. He war
visited backstage some years ago ir
London by the noted author and wit
George Bernard Shaw. Shaw scoldet
Heifetz for being too perfect. “Noth-
ing may be perfect in this world"
said the author. "or the gods becomt
jealous. and destroy it. So would yo:
mind playing one wrong note ever:
night before you go to bed?“

STUDENTS WILL BE permittet
on presentation of validated I-T;
cards.

The program will include Cha»
conne by Vitali; Sonata No. l
tKrcutzcri by Ludwig von Beetho
ven: Suite by Christian Sinding
Nocturne by Frederic Chopin; Cap
riccio-Valse by Henri Wieniawski
and T‘Ligane by Maurice Ravel
finanuel Bay will accompan}
Heifetz on the piano.

Elena Nikolaidi. contralto. will ap
pear on Feb. 28 as the next artist 11
the concert series.

TV Favored
By Owners

Results of a survey. which wa
made by the UK radio arts depart
ment. disclose the impact of tele
vision on Lexington. The student
talked to some 102 of the city‘s 300
set owners.

The set owners reported that thv
number of visitors to their home
has almost doubled since the at
quisition of their sets. Other change
are altered hours for eating an
sleeping. Two-thirds of the peopi
interviewed now go to bed late
than before. and some have changet
their supper hour.

The survey shows that motion pic
ture attendance has dropped of
greatly among set owners. Magazinr
and book reading has also sharpl‘
decreased. There was little Chang!
in lecture attendance and news
paper reading. however.

Television has won the genera
favor of Lexmgwii set owners as a.
entertainment and a d v e r t i s i n
medium. Nine out of ten of the se
owners said that if they had it it
do again they would still buy a set
The ten percent who would not (it
so said that poor reception was thi
reason for their disapproval.

Falling Ice

Thawing temperatures created
new hazards for the manV already
hazard- ridden faculty members and
students of the University.
withdrawal of the sub- freezing iat-
musphere to its more natural habi-
tat in the far north brought a wave
of avalanches raining down upon
the University. Although lacking
the ferocity of the recent Alpine
avalanches. the UK avalanchettes
caused their share of damage.

Hardest hit by the falling ice and
snow on the campus were four auto-
mobiles parlzed around the Buell Ar-
rnory. Two of the four cars belonged
to Maj. Raj. inond G. Teborek and T-
Sit. Frank J. Btildra. members of
the UK Air ROTC staff.

Maj. Teborek reported that his
1950 Mercury. re:istering just 3000
miles. is in need of a new roof. a
hood. a trunk lid. a right windshield.
and some doors.

He was very cheerful and philo-
suphlcui about it rill. however. say-
ing that a lesson is to be gained
from his experience.

Dr. Sprowles said that there is al-
wavs a nine or 10 percent drop in
enrollment for the second semester.
In September. 1949. 7673 students en-
rolled for the first semester. com-
pared to 6949 for the second se-
mester in February. 1950. This con-
stitutes a ten p9rcent drop.

The threat of the passing of the
18-year-old draft law did not seem
to effect the enrollment. since few
freshmen enter the University for
the second semester. even during
normal times.

The Activities Maddie

The writer of the letter on evtra-curricular organizations in this
weeks \lailbo\ brings up it pIoIIlem which has worried the Kernel
for some time.

Frankly. we cant answer her question. “’0 know of no book-
let which explains the org.IIIi7.ItioIIs completely. The K-Book only
lists them. and the women‘s dormitory handbook gives a partial
list with incomplete e\pl.In.Itions.

More specific information about clubs and honoraries and help
in choosing the ones which would be of most benefit to the in»
dividual student seems to be among the most pressing needs on
campus. This is certainly .1” important part of anyone's college
life and a part on which it is very easy to go wrong.

Mortar Board's “Activities Night" was a step in the right direc-
tion. but it should be supplemented by a permanent. printed list
which fully explains each organization. its purposes. requirements.
and meeting time and place. The K-Book hardly has space for
such an involved project. and besides. it is distributed only to new
students. The student directory might he a good place. except
that it comes out too late to be of much value.

Perhaps the Kemel could he of some help in printing this in-
formation at the beginning of each year. If so, we would be glad
to do it. However. a Kernel is hard to keep as a permanent
reference. ‘

It's a pretty tough problem. but it needs to be solved. “'e‘d
like to hear some more comments and suggestions on the subject.

Registration In Retrospect

It seems to be the general opinion that this was the most pain-
less registration we've Ind in a long time. The lines were fewer
and shorter and the whole set-up smoother.

The fact that there were no identification pictures to be taken
was. of course. the biggest I‘Iiiprovement over the last registration.
Even the picture-taking process should be easier and quicker by
next fall.

Allowing the Sllflla'lll to fill out those countless registration
cards in advance is one oi the biggest factors in the speeding-up
operation. And it might be helpful to include other students in
the privilege given Arts and Sciences seniors this semester—that of
getting their Schedule cards and advisers card in advance so that
requirements may be checked. A lot of confusion was avoided by
having both semesters' schedules in one book.

The only \\‘l(l(*spi'e.lil complaint we heard about registration
was that many (‘()lll'si‘< were changed and others withdrawn With-
out notice. This may have been due to the fact that the Schedule
books were printed list 1.1”. But most of the changes were known
far enough in advance that they could have been printed in the
Kernel it we had been notified of them. Even a bulletin board
notice would have helped.

Solution Sought

I am in the not too unique posi-
tion of having just finished my first
semester at the University. and also.
not altogether strangely. wish to
spend next semester, and perhaps
many more. on those same premises.
And to make the story even cozier.
I want to get just as much joy and
knowledge out of this aforesaid so-
journing as possible. It is here,
that I am being. slowly but surely.
frustrated.

Now it’s not the curricula or the
professors tbless ‘emI that I'm com-
plaining about: they are quite ade-
quate. It's those “extra" curricular
activities. and the what, where.
when. and why of them. I search in
the big gray catalog: I run my
magnifying glass over my K-Book.
There I find listed blithely names
and more names of activities—and
that‘s all. Clubs and societies for
every purpose are clothed myster—I
iously in Greek; agriculture and
music honoraries are. to the un-
knowing eye, indistinguishable. Or
to my unknowing eye. at least, and
I feel. somehow, that I am not
alone. ‘

all-too-new students were presented
