Girl Violinist, II, Surprised
Her Coming Here Caused Stir
Gloria Perkins Says She
Is Not "Freak'' or
"PrOdigy."
Today's Symphony Solo.
ist Says She Studies as
Hard as Anybody.

Gloria Perkins, 11-year-old violin
ist who is to appear as soloist with
the National Symphony Orchestra at
Constitution Hall this afternoon, ex-
pressed surprise last night that there
should have been any controversy
about permitting her to play.
Announcement Of her coming to
Washington as a featured musician
had stirred a violent debate in the
meeting of the Board of Education
Wednesday. DR.. Frank w. Ballou,
superintendent of schools, differed
with E. Barrett Prettyman, corpora
ton counsel, who had ruled that her
engagement with the orchestra was
"an important part of her musical
education and, therefore, should be
permitted"
The diminutive artist insisted she
is not a freak or a prodigy" Il
am not a child laborer," she said,
land so far as school is concerned,
I am sure spend as much time with
my lessons as other children do" The
explanation of her genius, she de-
clared, is "only love of music and
regular practice"
Mother Also Surprised.
Her mother, Mrs. Clemmett Bird
song Perkins, a professional teacher
of violin and piano, once a concert
star in her own right, also appeared
surprised when told of the attitude of
school authorities here.
I'VE are not trying to commercial
ize Glorias talent" she said. I'VE
wouldn't know how to do such a
thing"
During the interview, the child ex-
pressed a marked preference for pri-
vate tutors, explaining that there is
so much waste of time in a regular
school,"
II like to be active" she added, land
1t makes me impatient to have to
just sit and watch other people work
ing. I think I can learn more quickly

GARNETT'S VIEWS
SOUGHT IN PROBE.
Crime Committee, Inviting
Fitzpatrick, Wants Both
Sides of Row.

District Attorney Leslie G. Garnett,
as well as John r. Fitzpatrick, who
resigned last week as assistant prose-
cutor as a result of his protest against
delay in trying a murder case, will
be asked to appear before the Citizens
Committee on Crime this week.
This announcement was made last
night by Arthur Clarendon Smith.
committee member, after F. Regis
Noel, president of the District Bar
Association and head of the Crime
Committee, had questioned the advis-
ability of hearing only one side Of
the controversy.
Smith emphasized that the commit
tee was not interested in taking sides,
but argued that the development mer-
tied attention as a matter relating
to delays in trials. This, he said,
he regarded as a subject pertinent to
the study.
THE accused in this murder case"
Smith said, has been in Jail for some
Is months, and another delay has
been granted in the trial. My thought
was that it might prove helpful to
the committee to hear an outline of
this case"
Fitzpatrick Out of Town.
Fitzpatrick was out of town yes
terday and due back tomorrow. He
is to be asked to appear before the
meeting of the Committee on Crime
Wednesday at Offices of the Bar ASso-
citation, 1881 G street. Smith said he
would ask Garnett to appear at the
same meeting, but at a different time
than that set for Fitzpatrick's re-
Quested appearance.
The accused in the murder case is
Mary Irene Buccolo, charged with the
murder of her husband Rudolph.
When the case was called last week
a postponement was requested for the
defense counsel, Wilton j. Lambert,
who has been in poor health. Fitz-
patrick in charge of the case for the
prosecution, was ready. and protested
the delay. He said he would disso-
ciate himself from the case.
Justice James NJ. Proctor sent for
Garnett and informed him that FitZ-
patrick had been "insolent." The
aftermath was the resignation of
Fitzpatrick.
Smith said last night the letter Of
resignation had not been made public
and might contain data Of value to
the Crime Committee He said he did
not plan to ask Justice Proctor to
appear before the committee since he
doubted if judge would want to
make any statement in the matter
before the court.
Would Hear All Sides.
When Chairman Noel learned of
the plan to ask Fitzpatrick to appear
before the committee he said he
thought it would be mistake to hear
only one side of the matter without
hearing also from Garnett and JUS
tice Proctor. He said he doubted if
either would appear to defend their
positions.
But if Mr.. Smith wishes to hear
Fitzpatrick I shall offer no objection,
although I think it is well to empha-
size that the committees work is con-
structive rather than destructive, :"
Noel said.
I'VE should give our public officials
whole-hearted support instead of
criticism. What can we learn of the
Fitzpatrick case will be only one detail
of a many-Sided picture which we
hope to obtain of law enforcement in
Washington"

Without exception it was found
that these experienced stage actors
and actresses adapted themselves
readily to the technique of the mi
crophone and gave finer perform
ances than could have been expected
from available performers whose
background was mainly in radio.
Players who never did much on
the stage, but have been long in
radio, in most cases are said to have
very definite limitations. They are
incapable of the versatility, and the
depth of characterization and variety
of mood shown by their colleagues
who have gained their experience in
the hard school of the theatre.
A typical radio player, it has been
found, excels at the first reading of
a script, giving promise of a fine per-
formance, but improving little as re-
hearsals progress. A stagetrained
actor, on the other hand, gives a
halting first reading, but rapidly and
more thoroughly falls into the char
acter portrayed by the script.
