U.S. Negotiates with Vichy for 200,000 tons of sugar. THOMAS GALE (1507 TO 1586?) Thomas Gale saw much war service, and his sound writings on wound treatment reflect his original thinking. In opposition to older authors, he disbelieved that gunshot wounds were poisonous, and proved his theory. He advocated cleanliness of the wound, removal or all foreign matter, foresaw danger in long probing for the shot, but none in letting it remain. Excellent, indeed, is his Treatise of Wounds from Gonneshot. Tuesday, April 7. Cleaned china & glass cupbords today a big job. War going on fiercely over in Europ & the East. TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 7, CELLIST WINS MUCH APPLAUSE WITH CONCERT Skillful Technique Shown As Difficult Program Presented It was evident that Gregor Piatigorsky, eminent cellist, lived up to his reputation as the greatest cellist of our day, from the enthusiastic applause given him by the large appreciative audience upon his appearance at Ogden high school auditorium last evening, under the auspices of the Ogden Community Concert Weber College association. Time and again he was encored and responded graciously. The soul with which he executed his skillful technique on the 103 year old Montagnana instrument, together with the flexible and temperamental interpretation of the difficult program, won the admiration and interest of his audience from the very first number. There was not a selection given from his Sonata C major, Boccherni, on through the variations on a theme from Mozarts Magic Flute by Beethoven; Schuberts Arpeggione Sonata; Chopins Introduction et Polonaise Brilliante, Op. 3; Romeo et Juliette, by Serge Prokofieff; Largo and Rondo, by Carl Maria von Weber; Prelude, Debussy; Tarentelle, Faure; Oriental, Enrique Granados, to his La Campanella by Niccolo Paganini, that would not take the skill of a virtuoso to play tihem. Mr, Piatigorsky was capably accompanied on the piano by Valentin Paviovsky. There was little wonder in the hearts of Ogdenites, after hearing the concert, that this artist is in demand, season after season, on American tours from coast to coast. Local music lovers are already looking forward to his reappearance here at some future date. A. P. W. |
