Training OF
More Doctors
BY HAROLD X. MILKS

NANKING = Existing civilian
facilities will supply enough doc
tors for China's army - if the
troops could wait LOT years.
That's too long to wait, says
Scotch-trained Surgeon-Ge seral
Robert K. S. Lin of the Chinese
army. So at the new National De
tense Medical center in Shang-
hal he has begun speeding UP its
work.
Inns assignment is to improve
the situation in which China has
only $4,000 qualified doctors in
stead of the minimum 100000 it
needs for medical service for

try, except for Washington, D.
c., with SO per cent. North Da-
kota, up $3.50 per cent, had the
highest.
A word of caution should be
given in reading the figures. They
are averages. Whether you deal
with the $575 average in 1910 or
the $1,323 national average OF
1947, that does not mean most
people got that sum or above.
One million-dollar income, for
example, can overbalance a large
number of below-average in
comes.
Another thing. There is no ref
erence to taxes. When incomes
increase, Uncle Sam takes a much
bigger bite and there is less left
for spending. Also, the per cap
tia figures take no account of the
number of wage earners. An in
creased number of wives are
working. When you speak of "av-
erage' families of four, more of
the family incomes come from
two or more workers.
But the board figures do reflect
sharp increases in payments to
individuals. They are much high
er even than 1929. In 1929, u. S.
per capita income was $3.50. The
$575 average in 1910 was lower.
But by 1916 it had grown to ST.
213, and to $1,323 in 1947. Esti-
mates for 1913 indicate it may
be around $500 a year higher.

Port OF

which German demolition squads
partially destroyed four years
ago, will be reopened to its nor
NAL traffic by next January.
Reconstruction of the port was
undertaken by the American Mis-
sion for aid to Greece one year
ago.
Cooper A. Pickett, area engi-
neer of the u. S. Corps of Engi-
neers, says: "Piraeus is the big
gest reconstruction job under
taken by the Americans in
Greece"
The Galveston, Texas, engineer
who supervised construction work
on the Mississippi river, the Con-
chas dam in New Mexico and the
Santa Maria docks in the Azores,
reports the project is rs per cent
completed. He says the port will
be totally reconstructed by the
end of this year.
Piraeus has been one of the
biggest harbors of the Mediter-
ranean sea for nearly $500 years.
The use of the harbor centuries
ago made Athens a great sea
power and won Greece fame as
the Mistress of the Mediterran-
can"
Because Piraeus became an inn
portant port for international
trade as well as a strategic strong
point in time of war, it was pc
riodically subjected to destruc-
ton by attacking forces.

only thing Ewell Walker, Sr. -
who is now assistant superintend-
ent of Dallas public schools -
taught Doak when he was a small
boy. He started a campaign to
de-emphasize football in his sons
mind.
You're good, Doak," Mr..
Walker would say. But, 50
what: Football is just a sport -
like sack racing. And some folks
think football is just as silly as
sack racing"
While giving one of these de-
emphasis talks, the elder Walker
was apt to be teaching little Doak
how to dart one way when the
blocker moves a potential tackler
the other way. Both ideas stuck
in Doak's mind.
If he is sophisticated in his
attitude about football, Doak is

The District of Columbia Chapter
Of the American Guild of Organists
and the Arts Club Of Washington
combined In the presentation Of the
Chancel Choir Of the National Pres
bytertan Church in q program OF
unusual interest last night In the
church. This is the second season
that the two organizations have
jointly sponsored special event
and because these have been most
artistically presented and Of some
what out-of the ordinary character,
they bid fair to be something the
public will look forward to each
season.
The program last night consisted
Of three works, Copland's I'm the
Beginning" Honegger's "Cantique
do Paques" and Britten's Rejoice in
the Lamb" in what was without
doubt their first hearing in this city.
They were preceded by the singing
Of Theodore Schaefer's "A Choral
Introit," composed for the COM
memoration service Of the National
Presbyterian Church last October.
This Of itself is a beautiful choral
number In which the director Of the
Chancel Choir exploits the rare
vocal quality Of his group with fine
skill.
That they are expert singers with
remarkable surety Of pitch was to
be appreciated time and again In the
demands the works Of COPELAND,
Honegger and Britten made on their
vocal resources and on their musi-
cianship. Copland's "In the Be-
ginning" was commissioned by the
Department Of Music of Harvard
University for the Symposium Of
Music Criticism held at the Uni
versity last May. 1t was sung by
the Collegiate Chorale under the
direction Of Robert Shaw and with
Nell Tangeman as soprano soloist.
Miss Tangeman came to Washing
ton for the performance last night
and her singing was the outstand-
ing feature of the concert.
For the solo portions, sung with
out accompaniment, can be sus-
tanned only by a singer with the
gift of perfect pitch. That she was
able to sing the very taxing part
with great tonal beauty as well as
precision sets her apart as a vocal
ist Of exceptional talent. Since her
first performance Of this work In
May Of last year, she has acquired
greater finish in the development
Of the profound subject Mr.. Cop
land chose and its progression was
stamped with exaltation.
The text Is taken from Genesis I,
verses 1-31 and II, verses IT, the
story Of the creation of the world.
The chorus amplif1es the narrative
at several points with inspired repe-
titions and intones the passing of
the days. But the story itself Is
left to the soloist until the final
verse with its gladstone closing. The
composer has written with under
standing Of his subject confning
the first part Of the narrative to
rather bleak statements, musically
Evening star., 1948-04-23

there Is q rarefied quality Of deep
and childlike faith in 1t. Britten
has captured the spirit Of the poem
with extraordinary sympathy and
written the music accordingly.
When the poet calls out the Old
Testament characters and the
animals associated with them to
praise God, when he speaks Of his
cat as the servant Of the living
God" Britten has set gay, rather
banaI music to the lines yet inn
buing 1t with a reverent character
at the same time. But he has struck
a new and exquisite note in the
opening Rejoice in God" the
"Hallelujah" and the hushed For
this time is perceptible to man by
q remarkable stiffness and serenity

Jack (Flying) Cloud, William and
Mary's prize candidate for all-Amer-
lea fullback honors, showed his
wares to a select gathering made
up in the main of the Maryland
football squad yesterday in a scrim-
mage at College Park. His powerful
line smashes and fancy-step run
ming. left the old liners ready to
admit he's a slick-running piece OF

But Cloud is not all OF note that
William and Mary has this year. A

hard running.
Cloud wasted no time getting
under sail, leading the Indians on a

ing Brownell stroke for stroke over

Two of the holes in Brownell's s

dead stymies, with Morris failing to
lump Brownell's ball on the third
hole when he elected to use a
wedge, and the loser missing an

he attempted to cut his putt around
Brownell's blocking pellet-but
failed. -.
