'the Woman's Club ol Taft
ited Alpha Prince, pianist,
recital last Monday evening,
■May 2, in the High School audi-
torium in observance of National
Music Week. Miss Prince was
.asriated by Mr. Blaise Montan-
’don, pianists and instructor in
the School of Music at Del Mar
College of Corpus Christi.
Mias Prince displayed an ox
edSent grasp of the expressive
plausibilities of her program, and
■employed a technique which was
remarkable for its efficiency and
•time. Her stage personality was
j&aracterized by a charm and
£K»se unusual in such a young
aaA inexperienced artist.
Mr. Montandon gave a force-
M, yet properly subdued por-
ftmrupanet at the second piano
'in the first movement of Men-
ItWIin’s Concerto in G minor.
Xs tfus work, as well as through-
out the program. Miss Prince
dtiapkyed a virtuosity and mu-
.gltianship which will carry her
in the brilliant pianist’s
Ftt—*r which is being predicted
tor her Miss Prince and Mr
Montandon are to be compliment
.«d for their year's work which
was so capably demonstrated in
the recital.

«f Mrs. L. A. Cage, chairman,
Mrs. W. M. Spessard. Mrs. H. W.
