Appearing as soloist with Dr. Modeste Alloo and the symphony orchestra Sunday afternoon is Mme. Eugenia Honeywell, American pianist. The performance is the second in a series of six subscription concerts, and will begin at 4:45

Minor, originally scheduled. As its opening selection’, the orchestra will offer the Bach Albert Prelude, Choral, and Fugue.
Recognized in this country as both musician and newspaper woman, Mrs. Honeywell has proved her versatility in many varied fields. With a background of intensive training in the fine arts, she began her concert career. Upon the death of her husband, an Indiana newspaperman, she assumed the responsibility of publishing one of the leading chain newspaper organizations in the Central West, thus mixing business with her music. Since the beginning of her concert career, she has won the universal acclaim of her audiences.
Transportation facilities of the Miami Transit Company will be used by most of the music subscribers. Leaving the hack of Bur-dine’a every ten minutes Sunday afternoon, are buses 14, 16, and

Committees in charge have not yet been chosen, but selections will be made at the junior class meeting scheduled for Jan. 19. Despite this, plans are already under way to secure special favors and printed programs for the prom.
Seniors as usual will be the guests of the junior class.—EF
