Die Zeitung "Santa Ana Register" Nr. 67 (Santa Ana, California) kündigt auf S. 3 die Konzerte von heute und morgen an:
"              Symphony Concert
     For the programs of the Los Angeles Symphony Orchestra to be given this afternoon and Saturday evening of this week two decided novelties are offered, and are of such interest that it is probable the record attendance will be listed. The first of these is the symphony No. 3 by Bruckner. This composer was contemporary with Brahms in Vienna, and his friends and admirers proclaimed his works as the equal of those of Brahms. Bruckner was a follower of Wagner and, though poor and obscure, wrote eight symphonies before he was taken up to head the opposition to the Brahms cult. Only about one program in a hundred includes a Bruckner symphony, so this is a rare opportunity. The other work is to be given its first performance from manuscript, incidental music by George Edwards of San Diego, written to "The Hunter" text taken from Olive Schreiner's "Story of an African Farm." " (*).

Auch die Wochenzeitschrift Hollywood Citizen Nr. 45 (Los Angeles Evening Citizen News) bringt auf S. 6 einen nahezu identischen Hinweis:
