Stern Speaks On Problems Of Musicians
Music is not only a way of living but also a reason for living, according to Isaac Stern, world-famous violinist.
Stern, a guest with Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Wallenstein, spoke at a tea sponsored by the all-college Symphony forum and the School of Music Friday in the student lounge.
“Many problems face young artists today,” Stem said. “One of the most serious is lack of qualified tefchers. Many college teachers are not honest or qualified enough to tell students their true worth and chances yi the music world.”
Makes Comparison
In ■comparing European orchestras and musicians, the neat-ap-pearing musician said top symphony orchestras in this country are superior to those in Europe.
The need for giving students a well-rounded musical background has been met in this country, and students no longer have to study in Europe.. he said. He felt that young artists in the United States are superior to those in Europe.
Music Part of Life
Stern commented that there are many opportunities for top-notch young artists in the music world. One reason for the increasing interest of young people in music is that music is becoming a bigger part of this country’s everyday life, he said.

SC debators are preparing stacks | of note cards for the Pasadena City college debate tournament Saturday.

| Trojan debators have been casing the library regularly for material on the question: “Resolved, that the non-Communist nations of the world should form a new international organization,”
According to Mohindar Bedl, student debator from India, students get little chance to make up their own minds because they debate both the affirmative and negative sides of the question.
“Every time I make a statement in defense of one side of the question, I immediately think of some refuting argument for the other side. The consolation is the knowledge that I’m well informed, even if I can’t reach a decision,” said Bedi.

NASHVILLE, Mar. 11—(U.P)—The famous “monkey trial” of John Thomas Scopes 26 years ago at Dayton, Tenn., may be fought again this week if the Tennessee legislature can find time on its crowded calendar.
Rep. Mary Shadow Hili, who represents Dayton, and Sen. Broek Cummings of west Tennessee introduced bills Friday to repeal the law under which an obscure high school biology professor became a central figure in one of the most heated controversies of his time.
I The conviction of Scopes and his $100 fine resulted in a 3 to 1 State Supreme Court decision upholding i the constitutionality of the law for-
bidding the teaching of “any theory ! that man is descended from a lower ■ order of animal.”
The decision reversed the famoua trial verdict on a technicality and i the case was dropped, but the statute remained as state law. The repeal bills, like the trial, arose from a casual conversation.
Mrs. Hill said she hoped the senate might pass the bill Tuesday and send it to the house in time tor debate there before adjournment now set tentatively for Friday.
However, Cummings expressed doubt that the measure would be put either on senate or house calendars by their steering committees,
! which decide what bills can be I debated.

Office of the Registrar. NASHVILLE, Mar. 11—(U.P)—The famous “monkey trial” of John Thomas Scopes 26 years ago at Dayton, Tenn., may be fought again this week if the Tennessee legislature can find time on its crowded calendar. Rep. Mary Shadow Hili, who represents Dayton, and Sen. Broek Cummings of west Tennessee introduced bills Friday to repeal the law under which an obscure high school biology professor became a central figure in one of the most heated controversies of his time. I The conviction of Scopes and his $100 fine resulted in a 3 to 1 State Supreme Court decision upholding i the constitutionality of the law for- bidding the teaching of “any theory ! that man is descended from a lower ■ order of animal.” The decision reversed the famoua trial verdict on a technicality and i the case was dropped, but the statute remained as state law. The repeal bills, like the trial, arose from a casual conversation. Mrs. Hill said she hoped the senate might pass the bill Tuesday and send it to the house in time tor debate there before adjournment now set tentatively for Friday. However, Cummings expressed doubt that the measure would be put either on senate or house calendars by their steering committees, ! which decide what bills can be I debated. |
