Young Violinist Home from Banff -

While King's 3cout.Dohn Phillips of Charlottetown. was on his way to Austria last month to repre- sent Provincial "scouting at the great, Jamboree, his younger broth- er Basil was travelling in the op- posite direction. He was enroute to Banff, Alta. to attend the Banff School of Music and Fine Arts to study violin under the direction of Mr. Clayton Hare of the Mount Royal College. Calgary.

When Mr. Hare was acting as adjudicator at Prince Edward Is- land's Musical Festival last May. he spotted young Phillips as being endowed with exceptional musical ability and as being especially ad- noted to the violin. Later he sug- gested that he atiend the famous summer school in the West Ar- rangements were made and Basil l1lI"Il)I1Ved in Banff, via train on July

A few days ago the young vio- linist returned to Charlottetown af- ter a strenuous six weeks studying the various techniques leading to the mastery of the violin. With seventeen other student violinists from various parts of the Domin- ion. young Phillips practised and rehearsed individually and with the group, from five to seven hours each day.

From the students. several of whom are members of the Cal- gary Symphony Orchestra, Mr. Hare formed a string orchestra which greatly: thrilled the visitors who attended the various concerts and functions at which they per- formed. In addition to five regu- lar concerts, they presented a Each Memorial recital at which Bach's Concerto in D Minor was featured. they also played for the opera. "Dido and Aeneas" by Henry Pur- cell which was presented in the School auditorium by the voice students.

Music critics present at this per- fnrmauce, particularly praised the orchestra. stating that it. was a marvel how the teacher and con- ductor. Mr. Hare. could take stit- dent musicians who had been to- gather such a short time and weld them into such a balanced sym- phonic group.

During his "off" hours. which were few. Basil was privileged to enjoy some of the breath-taking scenery of the Canadian Rockies. His trip was one long to be remem- bcrcd and he has returned with a new ambition to scale the heights of musicianship.

Basil. who is only fifteen years of age. receives his musical abil- ity from both sides of the family. a-. he is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Phillips who are both well- known in Island musical circles. The young violinist has been a pupil of Miss Kathleen Hornby of Charlottetown for the past 2i-G years and hLs progress also reflects great credit to her tutoring.

Local mtisicians who have watch- ed the progress of Basil Phillips. believe that he has the necessary qualities of it violin virtuoso and hope that he will continue his musical studies and bring fame. not only to himself, but to his na- tive Province.

Scoulers Addressed By Deputy Chief

The ideals and aims as well as the vast good the scouting princip- les can do in the world at large were unphasiud last night in a tall: delivered to the scouters Club at a meeting in St. James Church Hall. The speaker was the nation- ally known Mr. Jackson Dodds, C- B.E.. Deputy Chief Scout for Can- Ida.

Mr. Dodds told the gathering presided over by Mr. Stanley Mac- Innis, Provincial Commissioner. that people today should see Scout- ing in the same light as its found- er. the late Lord Baden Powell. if it were to survive in I world of- fering so many other attractions to boys. He said that scouting was It thing of the past. the present. and the future.

It is of the past because it takes from the past the values of ex- perlence. inspiration from the lives of those who dedicated them to service. It is of the present be- cause it seizes the opportunities of the present to contribute to the happiness of the boy and his use- fullness to the community. It is of the future because the future de- pends on the manner in which we train the boys of today.

Building Character

Mr. Dodds pointed out that Scouting is always endeavouring to build character. using the meth- ods laid down by Baden-Powell which are now in world-wlde' Ilse. He mentioned that the late Dr Cody had stated to young people that one cannot have privilege without responsibility. rights with- out duties Every boy should be taught that privilege demands of him duty, and the behaviour of a gentleman.

The speaker said that there were three great institutions workintz to- gether to make good citizens. They are the home. the church and thc schcol. It is to these institutions that the spirit. skills and service of Scouting must go.

He concluded by saying. "A hun- dred years from now it will not matter what your bank account was in 1951. or what sort of a home you lived in. or the make of the car you drove. But it will matter what kind of a world it is then, Good or bad it will be the result of the contribution we of today make. or fall to make. through the development of character in the boys of 1931."

The meeting was also addressed by Mr. George Ferguson, Dominion Executive Commisioner for Stores. Headquarters. Ottawa. who gave an insight into his department includ- ing its relation to other depart- ments in the promotion of Scout- ins.
