Leonard Pennorio Scores In Opening Fine Arts Concert

The young pianist, Leonard Pen- mario, who opened the Fine Arts Series Of concerts last night, sur- mounted the most difficult tech- nicalities in program highlighted by Scarlatti, Chopin, Debussy, and Liszt. In line with the artists dis- position to interpret modern piano music in the American idiom, he played two compositions of his own, March of the Lunatics," which gave true expression to the theme, and more pleasing to hear; Mid night on the Newport Cliffs which had an appealing melody, the broad sweeping phrases played by the artist in a grand manner.
 Mir. Pennario replaced Egon Petri originally scheduled to appear. The concert sponsored by the Matta- tuck Musical Art Society was at the Waterbury Women's Club.
 Opens With Scarlatti
 For pure enjoyment of piano playing our choice would be the first half of the program which afforded him the opportunity to give Q fine performance of two sonatas by Scarlatti, beautifully done, then the excellent presenta- tion of the D'Albert arrangement of Bach's Prelude and Fugue in D Major" MT. Pennarios Bach was eloquent, his technique all that could be expected, and he made it a colorful piece of work in the play ing as well as 8 technical exhibi- ton.
 Interprets Chopin
 In each of the eight Preludes of Chopin, Mr. Pennario described lovely sustained tones, the con- trasts in each pleasing to students of plano and the entire perform azace adding up to good Chopin. Fol- lowing with the composers "Sonata in B. Minor" he continued to ap- preciate in his playing the great favorite and here again the poig- na1lt melodies were played n1eticu- lously but sweetly, through the Al. legro maestosa, Scherzo, Largo and Presto.
 What followed Chopin in the sec Ond half of the program displayed the complete talents of this dynamic pianist, and he continued through six arresting compositions to go along at an accelerated speed, VOL urne tremendous and fingefwork, right and left hand, fairly amazing.
 Tremendous Power
 This tempestuous part of the pro- grom with modern music for piano predominating gave the artist all the opportunity he needed to show that nothing was too difficult for him. He began with Dohnanyi's "Capriccio in B Minor" followed with Debussy's realistic "Terasse des Audiences au Clair de Lune." then the two Pennario compositions named above, and next his only Iiszt contribution, "Sonetto Del Patrarca, No. 104." His final offer ing substituted for Liszts Hun garian Rhapsody No. 6, was an other illustration of his powerful resources, and though his capabtl- ities indicated the Liszt Rhapsody, he gave the modern piano, "Toc- cata," by the contemporary Rus sian-Armenian composer, Khaca- turian.
 The tremendous power and bril- fancy that characterized a large portion of the compositions played were particularly noted. On the other hand, his more subdued play ing was equally capable. His execu- tion was controlled, and if he leaned to pyrothechnical display and the

HeGIth, Accident Clauses
 In Future CLIO. Contracts

In line with its plans to seek health and accident insurance cov- craze for all employees covered by future contracts, the Mine, Mil 6 Shelter workers Union, c. l. 0. has incorporated such provisions in the proposed contract submitted to the Manufacturers Foundry Company. The factory management today ac- knowledged receipt of the union proposals and said it would be ready to begin negotiations for a new contract within two weeks.
 The insurance plan proposed to Manufacturers Foundry Is iinder- stood to call for larger percentage outlay per employe by the company than was the case with the plan recently adopted in the union con- tract with the Mattatuck Manufac- turing Company. Under the clause covering Mattatuck employees, the workers pay about one-half of the cost of premiums. !, The union negotiating committee at Manufacturers Foundry will work with Business Agent Joseph McEvoy of Local 251, who is chief spokes- man for the group.
 MT. McFvoy disclosed today that the unions contract with the A. H. wells & Company, the terms of which were agreed upon last April, will be ready for signing in a few days. The signing has been de- layed because of technical point, which has been settled by govern ment conciliator. Despite the lack of signatures to the contract, both sides have been observing It's pro- visions since April, MT. McEvoy | said.
 The present contract with Mauu- lecturers Foundry expires Dec. 1, and agreement on new terms will be sought before that time.
 At the recent Mine, Mill & Smell ter Workers Union convention in Cleveland, the delegates adopted 6 resolution directing that all future contracts include provisions for a group health and accident .nsur- ar1ce program.

ETC Heorinq 
 Connecticut Firms
 Cited in Complaint

The Federal Trade Commission at Washington yesterday postponed to Dec. 3 a hearing that 18 manufac- turers of chain products were en- gagged in price discrimination. Three Connecticut firms are included in the group. ....
 Listed among the manufacturers named in the complaint are the Russell Manufacturing Company, Naugatuck; the Turner & Seymour Manufacturing Company, Torring- ton; and the Bridgeport Chair & Manufacturing Company, Bridge port. Another firm cited is the American Chain Cable Companies, Inc, of York, Pa which has 6 plant in Bridgeport.
 The ETC. filed the first portion of the complaint before the war, then added a second part in Octo- Der, 1945.
 The hearing was delayed because of the vast bulk of the government exhibits, which are estimated to number more than 30,000 pieces.

Hear that West Poinciana "tem-

Apartments are filling up fast

Navy officials as recorded in yes

for all the Navy families. Some
naval circles are contemplating
putting up more temporary hous-

rush. There Isl lot more in the

STEAM ELECTRICITY

One of the big problems which
! see in the City Electric System
is the question of determining
Just what amount of electric
power the city will need in the
near future. Before the company
now is the question of installing
additional steam generating
equipment or not. Engineers /
have talked 70 in the Navy unof-
ficially are inclined to the belief
that the City Electric System will
need their present diesel system,
with the new engine being install
ed, and also the steam plant. They
cite the fact that with the huge
income of Navy personnel IN the
various navy units which are be-
ing activated and added here plus
possible tourist influx which will
come on down regardless OF
whether the town is jam packed
or not all proposed equipment will
be needed. Right now under
present revenue bonds the city
should have the system turned
over to it within thirty years.
Possibly if the steam equipment
is secured the time may have to
be extended But question is
to get as near. as possible an esti-
mate of what the needs of the city
will be within the next five or
ten years and thatshould be the
main consideration. Because re-
gardless of city ownership or not,
the necessary amount of electri-
city will have to be supplied.

CORAL ROCKETS

Sam B. Finders work with that
was to show that Sam Pinder
Wilson, the intent of a recent art
icle in this column was not to dis
credit Mr.. Wilson. The thought
was to show that San Pinder
earned every penny of his salary
and it is my belief that if Mr.. Pin
der had stayed on in the city as
both tax assessor and tax collector
that his salary would not have
been lowered below $3.50 How
ever, just to clear any thoughts
of citizens that this column meant
further that Mr.. Wilson is not
earning his salary, the following
is cited: Mr.. Wilson receives
about the same salary as Pinder.
His office as a whole has about
the same expense. His office
handles personal property tax
collections, real estate taxes, auto
mobile licenses, auto registration,
delinquent taxes, occupational
taxes, drainage canal taxes. When
l stepped in there everything was
going full blast yesterday Wilson
said that the month of July was
about the only breather. Mr.. Will
son also said that he believed Sam
earned his $4,000 year. Finally
as a matter of straight compari
son probably the Wilson office
ven does more work what with
the different phases of their work
and their larger tax rolls, which
is about seven times as great as
that of the city's.. My thought IS
that they are both hard working
men. - a.

when an arm breaks. the man is
out of business" he said. ITO meet
this. we are considering borrowing
a page from the British Army book
by providing each man with an extra
artificial arm and shipping box in
which to send a broken arm to the
factory or the nearest limb repair
shop for overhauling. In some cases,
special fittings may be necessary,
but in others it is simply factory
repair job
Because progress in developing
new appliances to improve artificial
arms has been greater than in the
development Of legs, the veterans
agency would be in better position
to provide armless veterans with a
spare" as Gen. Bradley suggests
Later, it was indicated, spare legs
could be provided for emergency
cases.
Thanks to a $1,300,000 appropria-
ton already made available by Con-
gress for research, Secretary of War
Patterson told the conference, the
committee set up by the National
Defense Research Council at the
request of Surg. Gen. Norman T.
Kirk is in the midst of important
developments. While the demon
strations were confined solely to the
newest types of artificial arms, both
Mr.. Patterson and Gen. Bradley
emphasized the development of arti-
fetal legs is not being neglected
Intensive work is being done in this
regard, but the results are not yet
ready for practical application.
Shows Great Promise.
The two officials said that most
of the committees work is still in
the research stage but it already
shows promise of significant future
aid for the $4,000 members Of the
armed forces who lost arms or legs
in the recent war. OF these $4,000
were in the Army.
Gen. Bradley made it clear that
patents would be made available to
contractors without cost, for the
benefit, also, of the several hundred
thousands of civilian amputees
whose numbers increase by some
10000 yearly.
One thing most needed, Gen.
Bradley said, is an artificial hand
which will be as useful as the hook
but look a great deal better" The
five veterans echoed his wish. Prog
ress is being made in developing
one of rubber material which would

By Nelson M. Shepard

Taking a tip from the British, the
Veterans Administration is con-
sidering the advisability of providing
service amputees with a spare"
artificial arm or leg for emergency
use, the same as an autoist carries
a spare tire in case of blowout.
sThis was disclosed by Gen. Omar

afternoon at War Department

armless veterans of two wars, serv-
ing as human guinea pigs for SCI

facility the latest improvements in
