A PIANIST'S
PROGRESS
In 1948 Mies Frances
Moran. an outstanding West
Australian pianist. won the
Julliard Scholarship which en
titled her to continue her mu
sical studies at the Eastman
School of Music at Rochester.
in the United States of
America. To assist her a fund
was opened and about £500
was raised in the metropoli
tan area and in Kalgoorlie.
Some of the money was
handed- to Miss Moran for
preliminary expenses but
about £270 was held because
the appeal committee could
not overcome the dollar diffi
culties.
A few weeks ago word was
received that Miss Moran had
graduated from the. University
of Rochester with the degree
of bachelor of niusic and was
going to Europe to complete
her studies by intensive study
of the piano with a private
tutor. The appeal committee
has now decided to close the
fund.and send the balance to
Miss Moran to help her with
this new aspect of her musical
education.
