We the Women

If you want to go through the
middle years without having
the term "middle-aged" frequent.
ly used to describe you, here's a
list Of ten ''don'ts'' for you to
follow:
Don't let your waist get thick,
your neck bunch forward. your
walk lose its springy lightness.
Don't make the mistake OF
thinking you can make drab, I'M
imaginative clothes seem young
and bright simply by wearing a
silly hat.
Don't talk too much about your
household problems, your chill
dren, your pet peeves, your health
Don't talk about your age.
Don't become a CLUB woman"
Don't stop studying your mirror
frequently to try to figure out
ways Of making the most of what
the years have given you-or what
they have left you.
Don't shy away from active
sports .
Don't gossip maliciously. Limit
your gossiping to the kind that is
amusing and harmless.
Don't read just to pass time.
Read to learn and understand.
Don't limit your social life to
any particular "crowd," and don't
play bridge with the girls" more
than once a month.

Associated Press Arts Reporter
NEW YORK, March 22-P-Ar
turo Toscanini will be 80 years
old Tuesday.
The fiery maestro, subject Of
more rumors, legends, fables and.
sometimes, verifiable stories thar
anyone can shake a baton at, is
probably the best known and mos
revered figure in the western mu'
sic world. Age alone might have
made him famous by now, and sc
might his fabulous temper, his ex'
ceptional memory, his fight or
F'ascism, but his abiding reputa'
ton rests firmly on his unassail.
able position in his chosen field.
At Christmas he will have com.
pleted 10 years as conductor Of
the National Broadcasting Compa-
ny symphony orchestra, and there
+ speculations as to what he will
do then.
He likes change, and never has
served more than 10 consecutive
years in n spot: 10 with La
Scala in Milan, 10 with the New
York Philharmonic, only seven at
the Metropolitan Opera. His con-
tract with NBC, on a yearly ba-
sis, expires in December.
One thing seems certain:
Though still an Italian citizen, he
has bought his Riverdale home
within the year and it is said he
is definitely settled" in this coun-
try for the rest of his life.
Music is about the only thing
that ever has mattered to him,
whether at the age of nine when
he entered the conservatory in his
native Parma, or today, or during
the long years in between.
That explains why the maestro,
as lively and energetic at 80 as
most men 20 years younger, did
not celebrate his 18th birthday,
and why, his intimates say, he
will not permit any observance OF
his 80th.
That also helps to explain why,
since he counts on music to speak
for him.. he fights shy of personal
publicity. He is reported never to
have been intervieWed-a contrast
to many other musicians who
would rather be interviewed than
foot, fiddle or sing.
One Italian journalist, never
stopped by the high gates of pal,
ace or ministry, swore to get the
maestro, trailed him for days and
at last planked himself down out
side a door through which his
quarry had disappeared. He wait
ed 48 hours but in vain. Toscan-
mi had learned of his presence
and fled by another door.
Stories about the legendary Tos-
canini are legion. You interview
Roberto R%umskayo and the first
thing he says is that he has been

Music Is Only Matter

and she says to him. You inter.
view someone else and he asks,
DID YOU HEAR what Toscanini
did at rehearsal?
What he does at ~rehearsals. of
course, is to raise the roof. A man
trying to describe exactly what he
is like put it this way: He's as
temperamental as all the other
conductors combined. but he is
not a stinker." Music is what mat
tiers; his tongue-lashings are di-
rected, not at the man but at the
instrument. When he breaks a half
dozen batons in a two hour re-
hearsal, it's not because he hates
the orchestra. but because he
loves the music.
Toscanini is small. Wiry, almost
dapper. Seen from the rear as he

white cuffs show below his black
coat sleeves; the top of his head
is bald and an apron-shaped fringe
of white hair falls over his nape.
The step up to the podium is
a bit high for him, but he man.
ages it with little difficulty. Sour
rying out, he hops like a kid onto
the upper platform.
Seen from a players chair at
rehearsals, however, he's a horse
of another color. With the music
stand pushed to one side. he puts
the boys through PAGES that make
a man, or kill him. A long. slender
forefinger aims at an unhappy,
horn or viola; the fingers of one
both hands Wiggle-Waggle pleas
for more zip; the baton marks
time with phenomenal regularity;
both hands are clapped to the side
of his face in sudden uncontrol-
liable despair. Then to settle some
dispute, he picks up his score and.
