HYAK, Wash, March 14.-tR-A University of New Hampshire skier whizzed to the national classic combined ski championship yester- day, but in the days feature event, the special-invitatio ski jump, bad weather chopped flights far below expectations.
 Ralph Townsend nailed down the title by adding a seventh place in the jumps to his second in Satur- dovs cross-country for a 424.7 to- tai.
 r'eter Hugsted, Norway's Olympic Games champion and recent wln- ner of the U. s. jumping crown, leaped 240 and 257 feet off Olym- plan Hill to score 221.8 points and a two-tenths win over a fellow ccuntryman, George Thrane.
 The longest jump of the day 258 feet-was Joe Perrault of Ish- peming, Mich, new holder of the North American record of 297 feet set last month at Iron Mountain, Mich. Wet snow, squalls and a qUartering wind cut distances yes- terday.

Plane Crash Kills
Frederick Farmer

A Frederick CMd.) dairy farmer
was killed and his passenger in
jured yesterday when their light
plane crashed from low altitude
near Lovettsville, Va, about so
miles northwest of Washington.
The pilot was Dorsey King, 40.
He died almost instantly.
His passenger, William BeSseley.
also of Frederick, was taken to
the Loundoun County Hospital in
Leesburg with both legs broken.
Loundoun County Sheriff S. P.
Alexander said he was told the
plane buzzed the Cooper farm
near Lovettsville several times
shortly before noon, the Asso-
ciated Press reported, and ap-
parently was unable to pick up
altitude.
An unidentified airplane was
abandoned at Frederick, Md.
after an emergency landing from
which the pilot walked away suf-
fering only head cuts. He did not
identify himself Immediately.

had an ample ebb and flow of color
with dramatic moments giving the
proper high lights.
The symphony" not played
here in many years, which the
composer himself styled roman
tic," finds this expression fully in
the melody of the second move
ment. taken up in turns by various
sections of the orchestra, and the
lyrical theme of the first move
ment. Yet through it runs seek
ing motif, soulful and nostalgia
with a tinge of the composers
Nordic heritage in it. Perhaps
some of the fine work that
went into the Interpretation of
the Symphony" was of too NINA
ture character to register strongly
yet this may be due to the adjust
ments necessary when a group
first come together again for en-
semble playing.
Miss Swarthout, the most origi-
nal of concert singers in choosing
a program, selected as her major
offering the original version of the
aria, "Unaoce POGO ia" from Ros-
sini's 1.-THE Barber of Seville" ;"
Her first number was changed
Evening star., 1949-07-04

from the well-known "Che faro
senza Euridice" from Gluck's "Or-
feo ct Euridice" to "Dido's La
ment" from Purcell's Dido and
Aeneas." The full. vibrant and in
dividual quality of her superb
voice shone at it's best in this lovely
work. The Rossini aria. interest
ing in this form, seemed nonethe-
less heavy and cumbersome since
one is accustomed to 1t in the
agile performance Of coloraturar.
It's range, however, brought out
the luscious low tones in Miss
Swarthout's voice which last night
were close to a contralto's in
depth and color. This was again
apparent in "Bali-H'ai' from
Rodgers South Pacific" which
was sung together with Some
Enchanted Evening" from the
same Broadway hit, and the gay
"Tu mes pas beau" from Often
bach's La Perichole.'' The Met
ropolitan Opera star is a greatly
gifted artist and everything she
sings gives artistic satisfaction.
Yet very important also is her
understanding of the public and
her desire to give it pleasure. The
inclusion of the two Rodgers ex-
cerpts, heard here in concert pos
sibly for the first time, and the
many encores filling the audi
snce's unabating demand. proved it.
The orchestra swung into its
accustomed stride in the last
numbers assigned it. The March"
from Tschaikowsky's symphony

and equally well defined was Wal

diverting music is full Of spirit
and just enough of nonsense to
make the five divisions played
lively and charming. The pro-
gram concluded with the waltz
from Rodgers "Carousel."
All musical tastes were salts

by the selections and the per-
formance which won an ovation

By Alice Eversmon

The National symphony Or-
chestra played its first concert OF
the summer season at the Water
Gate last night. It was a tre-
mendous success. 1t started when
the new permanent conductor,
Howard Mitchell. came on the
stage and the orchestra rose to
honor him while the audience ap-
plauded loudly and long. 1t con-
tinued with happy reception Of
each programmed number and
climaxed with the singing of the
soloist, Gladys Swarthout, who
added encore after encore at the
end of her final appearance. That
the concert was a success was the
consensus of the more than 10000
people who filled the seating space
and occupied whatever seeing or
hearing point they could find.
It was an ideal night for the
outdoor event with the sky a
serene canopy overhead which a
tranquil looking moon illumined.
A slight breeze came and went,
occasionally lifting the oppressive
heat for a few moments. The
river bore its customary pictur-
esque craft with one noisy new
conner sputtering its way through
one of Miss Swarthout's most
telling numbers. The planes flew
their course directly over the site
but were polite enough to muzzle
their motors a bit. ALI of this
constitutes the charm of the
Water Gate yet something more
was there last night. 1t was the
feeling of good will that per-
the crowd.
MIR. Mitchell repaid the audi
ence in the manner in which he
presented the program. Its de-
sign fell into two parts, serious
music in the first half and livelier
music after the intermission. Both
the Beethoven "Egmont" Overture
and the Hanson Symphony No. q

Capital Transit Board
To Discuss Move 10
Purchase Shares

Directors of the Capital Transit
Co. will meet Wednesday to decide
whether to call a stockholders
meeting to act on a proposal that
the company acquire it's shares
now held by the North American
Co.
E. D. Merrill. president and
chairman of the board, said, how
ever, the meeting Wednesday is
contingent on obtaining quorum.
The proposal that Capital Tran
sit acquire the 109.458 shares held
by North American has been
pressed by c. Leslie McCrea,
owner of 400 shares of transit
stock.
North American has made a
contract to sell its shares to
group of Florida businessmen for
$40 share, or a total of S2,189,-
160. Mr.. McCrea has opposed this
sale and maintains he has the
support of $50 Capital Transit
stockholders owning about 10000
shares.
Mr.. McCrea, in a letter to Mr..
Merrill, said the company could
buy the stock by selling part of
the approximately $6,OO0,000 in
securities now held by the COM
pany and charge the purchase
price to the $2,495,513 of unre-
stricted earned surplus.
Assuming the transaction is
carried out, Mr.. McCrea said in
his letter:
THE cash paid for this stock
is approximately only the cash
asset value per share. BY this ac-
QUESTION the company decreases
it's stock liability by $10,945,000 cit
is carried at its par value OF $100
a share), at a cost of 1900, 900
a profit into surplus of $8,645 300,
almost unbelievable"
He said also the same number
of dollars paid in dividends on the
smaller number of shares out
standing would increase the divi-
dend rate from 50 share to $3.50.
