Linda Hare, just 10 years old, with only two full seasons be- hind her in piano, on her first entry in a music festival, re- ceived 2nd prize with 81 per- cent, the highest being 82 per- cent. The adjudicators’ remarks were "some splendid phrasing, shape and definition. The balâ€" ance was good and the playing musical. The time values were accurate.” ‘ Judith Dodson, who took lst prize in January of this year at the Kiwanis Musw Festival again received Isl; prize in voice with 85 percent. Judith’s com- ments were "a pleasant sound :from a contestant who is work- ing well. Promising". Miss Ruth Garson ADCM, musician and teacher. entered only two pupils in the Daven- port Music Festival and both did her credit. Comments such as these are most encouraging to these pup- ils who are sincere in their en~ deavors. The time is 2 pm and admis- sion by season ticket or 30 cents. Last month the attendance was close to 300 and the com- mittee are hoping for another large Lurnout this month to complete the year.
