MEURDAY, OCTOBER 21,1939 *
Concert At
pellman College
Ira. 1
During her last concert season,
Miss Harreid played in such widely
separated states as Delaware and
Oklahoma; Virginia and Ohio; Penn-
sylvania and Mississippi; Alabama
and California; Illinois and North
Carolina, and Iowa and New Mexico.
After an appearance in University
Music Hall, Albuquerque, New Mex-
ico, the Albuquerque Tribune wrote:
ATLANTA, Ga.—Josephine Har-
rad,” brilliant young pianist who
has achieved 8 foremost place in
musical circles throughout the coun-
try, will open the concert series at
Spelman college for the new aca-
demic year on Monday evening,
October 83
- The artist has won degrees at
Spelman college and Radcliffe col-
lege, and she has been graduated

in
from the Institute of Musical Art
of the Juilliard School of Music in
New York City. In the summer of
1935, Miss Harrold received a scho -
arship from the Drama League of
America for study abroad and spent
the summer at the Mozarteum Acad-
emy, Salzburg, Austria. While there,
she went to Bulgaria as a delegate
to the Worlds Student Christian Fed-
eration and took an active part in
the musical program.
A familiar figure to Atlanta audi-
ences, before whom she has appeared
several time s in retical—both before
and s ncc her graduation from Spel-
man-Miss Harrold is making her
third appearance in Sisters Chapel
in approximately the past year and
a half. In February, 1938, she was
presented in a full evening concert
by the Atlanta Spelman club, and
in November of the same year, she
was the guest artist appearing with
the famous Kryl Symphony orches-
“Her work shows thorough train-
ing and study, and she promises to
be one of the brilliant pianists of
the country. Her race and her in-
dividuality are both assets, as one
gives real native melod c quality,
and the other the highly trained
intelligence necessary for a top-
flight pianist. When and if Miss
Harreld returns to Albuquerque to
play, she is without doubt an artist
all music lovers cannot afford to
miss.”

say that for the truth these skilled
men have been urged to get into the
AFL organisation that covers their
class of work.
We-have held our mass meetings
from time to time trying to get
these men into a bonafide laboring
organization for their personal Bene-
fit and for their fellow craftsman.
How sad it was for Mr. Shaw, Mr.
Wesley and Rev. J. D. Moore'to
receive the information that they
did receive from the Housing Au-
thority committee. Notwithstanding,
we have to admit these gentlemen
fought a good fight for our people
to get their portion of the work on
the slum clearance projects of our
people. But wouldn't it have been
much better for Our people to have
qualified for such jobs by organiz-
ing themselves into a bonafide or-
ganization? It appears to this com-
mittee that each of the above men-
tioned groups and individuals la
selfish to the and that it is afraid
to connect itself together to the
end one feels one will receive more
employment than the other because
of qualification. .
Be- it understood that it is em-
barassing to know that one builds
