The State Roads Commission is to
be congratulated, not only on the
fine progress they are making in
bringing Maryland's highways back
to the high standards they once en-
joyed, but also on the fine job they
are doing in keeping the press and
radio well informed of the Com
missions work And a great deal
of the credit along that line goes to
Mr.. Johnson, who not only sends
out plenty of releases-all of which
are brief and to the point-but from
time to time makes personal visits
to the editors desks throughout the
State.

Civic Music Season
Opens Auspiciously
Ruggiero Ricci, Violinist, En-
thralls Audience With The
Beauty And Perfection OF His
Music.

The young American violinist,
Ruggiero Ricci, opened the Hagers-
town Civic Music Associations 1949-
SO season on Sunday afternoon at
the Hagerstown High School and
enthralled a large audience with the
technical perfection and tonal beau
ty of his playing. In accompanying
Mr.. Ricci at the piano, Carlo Bus
sotti not only gave perfect balance
to the violin, but added immeasur-
ably to the beauty of the pro-
gram.
Part One of his program was de-
voted to Beethoven's Sonata in E
Flat Major. The first movement,
Allegro con Spirito, was handled
with considerable verve and force,
while the Adagio,. of more quiet
temper, was feelingly rendered and
its brief climatic bursts mounted
naturally. The final Rondo brought
forth spirited exchanges between
the two instruments.
The difficult Concerto No. in F.
Sharp Minor, by Wieneawski, which
comprised the second section, was,
to this reporter, the most satisfying
number on the program. In this COM
position, ranging from the violent,
to the gay, to the sweet, Mr.. Ricci
showed an exceptional virtuosity in
one so young, never over-emphasiz-
ing the emotional content at the one
extreme, nor underplaying the other:
and the final Rondo left nothing to
be desired.
Following the intermission, Ernest
Chausson's Poeme, nostalgia and
full of longing, gave the young ar
lists an opportunity to display fully
their ability to convey feeling with
expressive mastery.
A group of shorter numbers fin
ished out the afternoons repertoire.
OF these, the La Chase, by Fritz
Kreisler, and Caprice No. |, by
Franz Won Vecsey, were most eff
fective. Particularly in the Caprice
did Mr.. Ricci Guido himself, bring
ing the autumn winds right into
the auditorium with wonderfully
descriptive playing.
Only in the final number, God
Save the King (Theme and Varia-
tions) by Paganini, was anything
lacking. This tour de force moved
and the tonal freshness
and richness apparent throughout
the rest of the program seemed to
evade the talented musician in this
Several encores maintained the
high quality of the program.

Murnmer's Parade
Tremendous Success
Crowd OF $4,000 Views Big
gest And Most Colored Parade
Ever Held HereMiss Aaner-
lea Makes Personal Appear
ance And Is Crowned Mum
mer's Queen BY Gov. Lane.

Highlighted by the personal ap-
pearance of Miss America and Gov
ernor William Preston Lane, Jr., the
18th annual Mummers Parade held
on Monday night was undoubtedly
not only the biggest, but the most
colorful in the Alsatia Cmbs long
history of parades. y ",.# y
In addition to the Alsatia Club and
the local merchants and organize
tons whose cooperation made the
parade possible, credit must also be
given to the Hagerstown Police De-
partnent, who did a remarkably fine
Job of handling the huge crowd, es-
timated at close to 10000. - u
The parade itself was handled
with almost clock-like precision
considering its huge length, and the
only real delay was caused when the.
front section of the parade had com
pleted its route and arrived back
at the Square before the. tail. end
OF the procession was through the
Square at the start of it's long route.
Not only were there more Of the !,
crowd-pleasing mammoth balloons
than there were last year, but there
were also many more bands and
drum and bugle corps, to say moth
ing OF the Kiltie Band from Detroit.
Michigan, whose swirIing of the bag
pipes made this reporters heart beat
little faster and took him back to-
the days of World War I. ,a,h s
The judges had a terrific Job in
selecting winners in the yarious
groups, and this was particularly no
t1ceable in the bands and drum
corps sections, where the music and
the marching were of such high
quality that they were hard to sep
arate.
The float Of the Washington Street
School came in foE really favorable
comment all along the line Of march.
and 1t certainly was masterpiece.
Featuring their float was a huge
paper mache gorilla which the pu-
pills at the school made themselves.
And talking about the floats, there
were some very fine examples of
ingenuity. The judges awarded the
first prize to the very beautiful float
entered by the Anderson Dry Clean
ers.
Among the huge balloons, spon-
sored by various local merchants
the one that caused the most ex-
cltement was a huge sea serpent
which weaved its way back and
forth across the street, bringing con-
sternation to the youngsters and
shrleks of laughter from the adults
Space will not permit listing all
the various floats and organizations
IN the parade, but suffice it to say
that, blessed with the usual Mum
mers Parade weather, which changed
from rain to clear weather almost
as If by magic, the 1949 parade win
long be remembered and talked
about, and it was a real advertise /;
ment for the City of Hagerstown
