I I MISS Ml BfMlli: The State Pays Her a Handsome Tribute. (The State, Sunday.) The second graduate piano recital of this year's commencement was given hy Miss Lorena Beacham In the college auditorium on Friday evening when a large audience enjoyed the splendid work of the young artist. She is a decidedly talentojST younc woman and besides being equipped with a facile, clear cut techniqtie'alld . in unusual amount of strength and de2i?ion, she has that nervously mtteloal :emperameut which must be the natural heritage of every genuine tqasidlfi.n. 3he pla>s with artistic insight and feeling which good taste always restrains from becoming emotional. Her programme was a well chiosen, dis :inoiiy moaern classical coueuuou, widely varied so as to represent the nodern French, the Viennese, the Russian, Bohemian and German ichools and it was extremely taxing on be technique. Ber first number, ( The Theme and Variations," by Canille Chevillard went especially well "| ind the extremely difficult "Tachaljowsky Waltz Caprice" was played | ivitJtx the brilliance and the style of a professional. It was decidedly the jest thing she did. Mies Lucilla Efird, loprano, assisted Miss Beacham and tontribuled in delightful measure to he evening's pleasure. She has a very good technique and sang the difficult 'BojeroM with quite an amount of t brilliance and fctyle. Her volce.ls very > natural and sweet in i(s tone quality . ind a particular charm of her siuging , ies in her perfectly clear enunciation. The programme in full was'ks folows: 'Thtme et Variations" (Camille Uhevilliard); "Etude, C minor Op. 25; STo. 7" (Chopin); "Am Seegestade" Fr. Srnetana)? Miss Beacham. 'Bolero," Vespri Sicilian!

This an be guessed. Mr. R. W.
