JUSTIN SANDRIDGE RECITAL,
piesents Justin Sandridge, the cele
brated pianist, with the great Vir
ginia Union University choir of one
hundred voices, Wednesday evening.
February 5th, at Fifth Street Bap
tist Church.
Justin Sandridge is a truly grea+
artist. To adequately describe the
perfection of his playing is an al
most unsurmountable task. That he
wil be awarded a place among the
■finest pianists of all time is the
opinion of critics who have heard
him. , ■
,-?andri ge. an American produ :.
was born in Boston and received all
his musical training there under mas
ter instructors. He made his debut
two seasons ago as guest soloist with
the gr..:t Bi-'.on Philharmonic Or
cherfra 0f 100 men before an audi
ence of 8,u00.
Mr. Sandridge opened his 1929-30
l->ur in Washington, D. C. He
, layed in the great music halls of
Pittsburgh and other large cities to
reat audiences—prolonged applause
characterized his every appearance.
The Union University choir of one
hundred voices—the heart-searching
beauty of their singing and the meas
ured emotion with which it is
charged fulfills the perfect aim of
art. which is to excite and then to
satisiy. Infinitely touching is the
music from this great body of voices,
which seems to come out from eter
nity rather than from human throats.
Its rhythm, its exaltation, its sen
suous loveliness thrill the ear.

Is prize-fighting on the level? This
i? a question that has been asked by
thousands of those who follow this
kind of sport for numbers of years.
Well folks use your own judgment.
That is all I can say about it. But
the decisions that have been rendered
in some bouts almost tell you that
something was wrong. 1 prefer not
giving my opinion on this question,
but I am going to tell you about
what happened in one of thev bouts
fought by the -well-known Jack
Dempsey, one of the greatest fighters
of all times, before he became
champion. Some of you may be able
to recall this particular bout, but
there are thousands who do not re
member it.
All who know Jack Dempsey, and
I doubt that very few people in this
country are unfamiliar with his tac
tics, know that he has always been
against “flopping,” but this particu
always practiced what they preached
lar bout proves to me that people
have not always practiced what they
preached.
This bout was fought way back in
the days before Dempsey became
champion, ‘‘The Dempsey-Flynn
bout.” Flynn had as much business
beating Dempsey as Old Jim Jef
feris had beating Jackson, and when
Dempsey was K. 0. in the first round
the fans went mad, Dempsey was
supposed to have received $500 and
as usual the gamblers cleaned up.
This bout made such an impression
on Dempsey’s prestige that he started
to quit the game.
