CHEMISTS ENDORSE
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Conference of Industrial Chemists
Defines Ideal Curriculum For
Student Chemists
Following a luncheon which was
served In MacAUistor Hall at noon, on
tho day of the Inauguration, tho In
dustrial Chemistry Department hold an
Important conference in the Foyer of
the Auditorium.
The meeting was opened with an in
teresting talk by Dr. Charles H. Herty,
Editor of the Industrial Engineer
ing Journal. Mr Hatty-stated that at
the present time the public is more In
terested in Chemistry than ever before
This statement is supported by the fact
that each space Is being glv
newspapers to items on
Chemistry Since tho advancement of
Chemistry depends largely’ on public
opinion, this Is a good sign of its for
ward progress Mr. Herty also empha
sized the fact that all chemists should
be able to write and speak, clearly and
forecfully 'in order to make a proper
success of their work He showed the
necessity for lower freight rates, since
at the present time It costs less to bring
important chemical products’ from
Europe than it does to transport them
a short distance inland. Along this
lino he also believes that an adequate
protective tariff and an embargo on
coal tar dyes will aid in the develop
ment of the dye industry in this coun
try. Mr. Herty ended his discussion
by giving a description of tho plan be
ing carried out by tho Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, which provides
training for tho student in Industrial
plants In ordor to better fit him for
his work
Following Air. Herty’s talk, .Dr. W. H.
Walker who la one of the trustees of
Pennsylvania Stato College, and a con
sulting chemist, discussed the specific
training of tho industrial Chemist. He
said, “Chomists must bo taught how to
make a living and bow to live ” To
attain this end a student must,, have
training in both technical and cultural
studies His chief point was that
while In college a man should got fun
damental principles, and not too muoh
detail. In line with this statement, he
sold that he approved of the course In
qualitative analysis, since It made a
man resourceful
Mr. G- M. Norman, Chemical Director
of the Hercules Powder Company then
gave his ideas as to what young In
dustrial Chemists needed. He sold
that Industries found most useful those
men who had taken part In student
activities His reason for this was that
such men In addition to having a tech
nical training' were prepared to handle
men, and become members of a cor
poration. Ho said, “An' Industrial
Chemist must be loyal, tactful and
above all „ things must be absolutely
honest.”* Mr Norman does not believe
In making specialists out of students
in four years, but rather that this
should bo reserved for graduate work
After Mr. Norman’s talk there iwns
a short discussion In which some of
the points mado were emphasized and
•brought out more fully.
FRESHMEN MUST JUMP
AT SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE
The students'of Springfield College
'have an unusual custom la which tho
numerals of tho different Glasses are
cut Into the cement paving stones on
the campus walks It Is against the
college traditions for any freshman to
walk on one of these .blocks —he must
jump over it. .

than a match for tho Cornell frosh,in
tho first freshman game for tho Corr
nellians lost Saturday when they de
feated tho 1025 eleven by a score of
, 19-0. Tho success of tho Klski aggre

SALVI EMPLOYS HARP
AS SOLO INSTRUMENT
World’s Greatest Harpist With An
Interesting History Appears
Here October 29th
Alberto Salvl, the phenomenal harp
ist'who will give one of his sensational
recitals in the Schwab Auditorium on
the evening of October twenty-ninth,
has been acclaimed in over two hun
dred American cities as the greatest,
harpist ever heard in this country Sal
vi has accomplished what has always
been considered an Impossible feat by
giving an entire recital of harp music
without any assistance whatever and
holding his audience spellbonud
Mr Salvl Inherited his predilection
for tho harp His father was a cele
brated Italian harp maker and made
a specially constructed miniature harp
for the lad when he started to go to
school. During this period he practiced
four hours a day and the allotment
‘was increased .gradually until at the
age of twelve he devoted six to seven
hours per day to-.practice This de
votion to duty is what Mr. Salvl as
cribes os tho reason for his marvelous
ly facile and fluent technique
His father’s teaching continued until
the boy was thirteen when he won the
first distinction of his career, tho Kraal
‘Scholarship at the Naples Royal Con
servatory. This scholarship is award
ed in the special classes for the young
musician having tho bost record. The
competltlo nia nation-wide through
Italy.* This windfall ensued Salvi’s
thorough musical education along tho
highest standards - The scholarship
was for a period of elgt years and both
tuition and other expenses wore paid
for out of the endowment.
Salvl had the advantage of Instruc
tion under the eminent harpist, Maest
ro Coramlello In the fifth year of
Salvi’s course Coramlello wrote to the 1
Ministry of Arts at Romo, under whoso
supervision the scholarship Is conduct
ed, that the boy had acquired In five
years all the knowledge, theoretical
and practical, that went with the full
curriculum of eight years Ho asked

paied in order thnt the talented youth
could wind up officially his academic
career and enter that of virtuoso
Despite the unusualness of the re
quest it was acceded to and after the
young man had passed the special ex
amination and his phenomenal playing
h’td been heard by the examiners he
was awarded the eight year diploma at
the end of five years. ,
From the beginning his public
career was successful The harp is
more widely played as a solo instru
ment and more generally appreciated
in Italy" than on this side of the At
lantic where it usually .is thought of
ns a reinforcing voice In the orchestra
or as an Instrument for accompani
ments
Artists .like Salvi are gradually
changing this limited American view
of the place and possibilities of the
hai*p Italian successes were followed
by European favor Less than two
years ago the young artist came to
America where he has ns already in
dicated obtained not only artistic wel
come but popular favor. Ho has not
been content to be merely the techni
cian of the harp He also puts some of
his soul into recapturing the rapture of
the soul of the harp He is very
learned in the literature of the harp
nnd has added to it by writing In char
acteristic manner the following num
bers among others Serenade, Valse dl
Converte, Tarentelle, and Ballade Play*
ing the harp is tremendously taxing In
its demands on the fingers but Salvl's
elasticity and flexibility mao what was
obviously arduous and difficult to the
eye sound simple and lovely and easy
to the ear
Besides his own work, Savill will play
