By ALICE EYERSMAN,

Young william Kapell, the piano
soloist with the Philadelphia Or
chestra last night, received the kind
of ovation usually given to artists
twice his age after his playing of
the Rachmaninon Concerto No. q"
It was q brilliant exhibition OF vir-
tuosity and of q talent already ripe
| ly developed. For this extra pro-
gram outside the Philadelphians'
regular series, Eugene Ormandy in
cluded the new work featured this
season, the "Arie di Corte" from
Respighi's third suite of "Old Dances
and Airs for Flute finishing with
the Brahms symphony No. g."
When Mr.. Kapell plays, one looks
into the future and sees a pianist
who may well surpass any before
the public today. His technical abil-
ity now is OF such superior quality,
his tone both engaging and brilliant
and his musical understanding so
well grounded that, at the start OF
his career he is already an astound-
ing master of the piano. What is
not to be found in his playing just
now Is the forgetfulness of me-
chanics and the deep urge to fathom
the innermost content of a work.
He has done much and can do more
and 1t is not to be held against him
that the supreme goal has not yet
been reached.
| As remarkable as was his delivery
OF the Rachmaninof concerto, it left
the mind inspired, but the heart
cold. 1t was beautifully done in
every instance, with fine shadings,
well-formed phrases, ringing volume
and varied modulations. He has a
fire that he holds in proper restraint.
but when released is of electrifying
power and tone that is crystal
clear in passage work. But this
splendid equipment is not warmed
by the kind of emotional feeling
that takes hold and guides or by
that personal yielding to the music
itself which draws out its best. For
this reason the song like adagio was
too planned to speak for itself and
the other movements too literally a
vehicle for his dazzling virtuosity
His listeners followed him absorbed
spontaneously bursting into loud and
prolonged applause that brought the
young artist back several times to
bow.
1t was an echo from the past that
was heard in Respighi's "Arie di
Corte" and its simple ending on a
note dying away was quite in keep
ing with the idea. The work is
richly orchestrated for strings, some
what too thickly at times, yet
through its compact structure runs
the clear thread Of the harp mel
ody which counterparts that of the
lutte. The basis of the work is the
several airs written by the 18th CEN
tury lutist, Besard, which are dis
tributed between the different voiced
strings of the ensemble and finally
woven into whole The first of the
airs is played by the violas, which
rival in purity, strength and vi
brancy the famed violin section of
the orchestra. The classical harp
theme was played by Marilyn Cos
tello.

Brahms Symphony" stressed the

Senator'S Reaction on Atrocities
Stirs Fresh Interest in Films

Fresh interest In the Mani atrocity
films still showing in school build
ings here, was aroused today by
reaction of leading Senators after
viewing a special show Of offlcial
War Department pictures in the
Senate once Building.
Horrible, beastly, unspeakable, y
was the way Chairman Connally OF
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, characterized some of the
sights he saw on the screen.
Majority Leader Barkley: THE
films showed only part of the besti-
ality of what we saw in Germany.
He was one of the group of Con-
gress members who visited concen-
tration camps.
"The United Nations Charter is q
step In the direction Of preventing
such things happening to our chill
dren," said Senator FuIbright OF
Arkansas, author Of the so-called
Fulbright resolution In the House
on international corporation.
Senator Hart of Connecticut, a re-
tired admiral, was mortified" at the
evidence of German brutality. Il
was particularly impressed" he said
with the good judgment of the

Army in forcing the German people
to see those camps"
Senator Ferguson Of Michigan
who also visited the Nazi camps
said it was important that the
American people realize that these
were not just war atrocities, but
the fruit of a policy which began
as early as 1888 when Hitler came
into power. These things were
planned and deliberate" he said
That is what you get with to-
talitarian government.
FirSt-hand testimony as to the
torture and determination policy
of the Nazis was given the audi
ence by Count de Lubersac, a
French artillery captain, who was
liberated from the Buchenwald
concentration camp.
The Senators went directly from
the program to the Senate floor for
the debate on the Charter.
The motion pictures may be seen
at only three more places In this
area under joint auspices of The
Star and the st. Louis Post Dis
patch. They were screened yester-
day at Barry Farms Community
Center and move today to Congress

timated to have seen the films

Aussies Gain I Miles,
Comb Jungle for Japs
In Ba|ikpapan Area
By the Associated Press.

MANILA, July 26.-Australian 7th
Division forces, combing the jungle
hinterlands of Dutch East Borneo
between Balikpapan and captured
Sambodja oil fields for isolated Jap
anese, advanced 7 miles to the upper
reaches of the Manggar River with
out opposition, Gen. Macarthur an
nounced today.
Ahead of the Aussies lay some of
the toughest terrain on Borneo.
The Diggers were consolidating for
movement north toward Mahak-
am River, third largest on the
island. The wide delta Of the Ma
hakam, resembling the mouths of
the Ganges, has four channels navi-
gable for vessels. The held
town of Samarinda Is the key to its
control.
One column Of Aussies was ad-
vancing toward Samarinda from the
inland highway, still was so miles
from the objective, but other columns
at Sambodja were less than half this
distance.
Above Samarinda are rich Ang-
CANA oil fields on the north bank
Of the river and four sizable pro-
ductive coal fields. The Sangasanga
River, tributary of the mighty Ma
hakam, rises from the hills to the
south. It is along this 100 TO 200
foot wide stream that the Moears
and Louise oil fields extend, with
approximately two-thirds of Balik-
papan's oil concentrated on both
sides of the river.
In Western Borneo. Australian
9th Division forces engaged in ex-
tensive patrols from Miri to a point
less than 80 miles south of Jessel-
ton, while planes of the Royal Aus
tralian Air Force and the United
States 18th Air Force ran riot over
enemy concentration points in low
level strafing attacks. .,
From Melbourne, Australia, an
Army broadcast said that a new
landing had been made on Choiseul
Island in the Solomons, across the
strait from Bougainville Island
where the Aussies are within 1s
miles of BUN.

OF Landing by Yanks

SAN FRANCISCO, July 26.-An
unconfirmed Japanese broadcast re-
ported today that an American re-
connaissance force landed on Puket
Island, off the west coast of the Ma
lay Peninsula, yesterday, but was
driven back to the sea" by the jap
anese garrison.
Puket is 625 miles northwest OF
Singapore. This is the British area
of operations, but the Japanese
Domei news agency dispatch said
the landing force was identified as
American"
The broadcast said two cruisers
began shelling the island about 8
am. yesterday. Behind This bom-
bardment six transports disgorged
500 troops.
The japanese garrison, Domei
continued, immediately counter
attacked and repulsed the enemy
troops from the landing point, with
heavy casualties inflicted on the
invaders.
Subsequently, cruisers continued
their bombardment while Allied
planes strafed nearby airfields.
Domei said that apparently "the
enemy's Inflated invasion attempt
has been for the purpose of con-
Quoting reconnaissance in force,
rather than any major landing oper-
ation."
Puket is CTS miles south of Ran
COON, Burma, most advanced port
recaptured by British forces under
Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten on
his push toward Singapore. 1t is
500 miles southeast of the Anda-
man Islands, repeatedly raided by

1t was planned to turn over to the
Mikados air forces design which
undoubtedly would be of very great
Importance in defense against
bombers. 1t was very complicated
design with many blueprints, and
the only possible way to deliver it
was by submarine. There is con-
