The B.R.D.C.'s Empire Trophy
Race
A running commentary by F. J. Findon and Alan Hess from Donington Park
Once again the British Empire Trophy Race, organised by the British Racing Drivers' Club and one of the classics in the motor race calendar, will be held in the grounds of Donington Hall, over a course closely resembling real road races on the Continent.
Competitors have to cover 64 laps, or about 200 miles in all, and as the handicapping is of the class order based on engine capacity, there should be a great race, F. J. Findon , editor of The Light Car, will occupy a commanding position overlooking the centre of activity, namely, the starting and finishing line and the pits.
Among the entries will be found some of the best-known names in motor sport. The smallest cars in the race will be Lord Austin's two super-charged Austins, whilst at the other end of the list there is Hans Reusch in a 3-litre supercharged Alfa-Romeo, who has already distinguished himself on the Derbyshire circuit. Other notable entries are Percy Maclure , who will probably drive a Riley, Villoresi, the Italian, in a supercharged Maserati, Bira, the Siamese prince, Billy Cotton , and it is anticipated, Raymond Mays in E.R.A.s, and A. Powys-Lybbe in a rebuilt H-litre Talbot of which a good deal is expected.
The fast, but twisting, circuit generally accounts for a good many ' incidents ', and the race should be well worth following.

Dohnanyi, director of the Budapest Conservatoire since 1919, is hardly a Hungarian nationalist composer as Bartok and Kodaly are. He has not been entirely insensitive to the national folk idiom, but if he must be given a label, the label should bear the words ' post-Brahmsian romanticist '. The first movement of this fine Sonata (published in 1913) is noticeably Brahmsian.
The second movement is in a form of which Dohnanyi has always been fond: a scherzo laid out in variations. This scherzo harks back in one place to the first movement ; the C sharp-D sharp-E motto of the first movement opens the finale ; and the end of the finale also harks back to the beginning of the first movement. But the Sonata as a whole is a spiritual unity which could easily have dispensed with such devices to clamp it together.
