But more definâ€" ite rules must be drawn up to govern the awarding. These scholarships are a definite encouragement to promising young musicians to continue in their musical studies. Film Society to Hold Annual Meet Wednesday, Oct. 14 In view of the fact that a second festival has been established with Cochrane as the centre, it is felt that confusion would be avoided if the name is changed to "Porcupine Festival of Music.‘* winners would be heard instead of one Grand Concert. Under the past system it was impossible to have more than a few of the 80 winners at the Grand Concert.
