Novaes Gives
Audience Rare
Musical Treat
BY SAM WARREN.
Guiomar Novaes treated Lin
coln concert-goers to a rare mus
ical experience last night, com
bining in her piano playing the
power of a man with the warmth
of a woman. Moving from Bach
and Scarlatti thru Beethoven and
Chopin on to the moderns,
Madame Novaes held her audi
ence absorbed throughout the eve
ning.
She put a spirited keeness and
an aliveness into her playing that
was never showmanship but
rather the joy which only a true
artist at his chosen instrument
can know. Perhaps this is the
"poetry" that many a critic has
mentioned in regard to Novaes
performances.
Changing Moods.
No listener could have thought
her Bach mechanical or dull. It
may have been lulling sometimes,
but "Fantasia and Eugue" was
always interesting and compell
ing. At times it was brisk and
gay; at times gentle and compas
sionate. Her little Scarlatti sonatas were
so vital, yet delicate and delight
ful that the audience's applause
demanded another for an encore
at the end of the group. Provid
ing a sonorous contrast was
Beethoven's "Sonata in D Minor."
The slow movement of this work
was one of those tranquil, lovely
moments that compelles the un
wavering and constant attention
of an audience. Changing mood.
See NOVAES, page 4.

nomics department.

those present will have an op
portunity to find out more about
the group.
After the discussion period the
meeting will be concerned with
plans for the drafting of a consti
tution. Those present who are
willing to join the group will be
come charter members for the
chapter, in regard to the national
organization.
LINCOLN 8, NEBRASKA
Cheer Leaders
Confused; Can't
Find Answer
Who's yer Hoosier? Dodie East
erbrook and Art Beindorff, two
ninths of the cheer-leading squad,
want to know if a Hoosier is an
imal, vegetable, mineral or Carl
ton Broderick jr. They claim
things have gotten out of hand.
Nobody knows who, what, or why
is a Hoosier? So they're asking
for help.
Next Thursday's rally, before
the Indiana-Nebraska game, will
be built around the idea of "Who's
Yer Hoosire?" Art and Dodie are
so interested in the answer that
they're begging every organized
house to bring their idea of what
a Hoosier looks like.
There will be a trophy for what
ever lucky house can answer the
problem the most originally, but
the kids have run into trouble
about judges. Nobody wants to
decide what a Hoosier is. So the
final committee will be announced
later.
The rally will be held on the
lot east of the Union, Thursday's
the day 7:00 p .m. is the time.
Right now, all nine of them
aren't sure of anything.
They just want to know, "Who's
Yer Hoosier?"
