Fry writes of angels with the
pen of one.
His play, therefore, is an expert
ence not lightly to be missed
although its reading in the Cath
olic U. production is not always
uniformly musical and meaning
full. Any such reservation is rela-
lively minor in a theater where
one may hear, and in this in
stance excellently read, such a
speech as:
All make all:
For while I leave one muscle
OF my strength
Undisturbed, or hug one coin
of ease
Or private peace while the
huge debt of pain
Mounts over all the earth,
Or, fearing for myself, take
half stride
Where I could leap; while any
hour remains
Indifferent, I have no right
or reason
To raise a cry against this
laundering cruelty
OF man"
Putting that speech into the
month of sixth century Jute,
Poet Fry telescopes time. The
words are apt enough for ut
terance this afternoon in the Gen.
eral Assembly of the United Ma
tionS.
So it is that "Thor, With An
gels" laid on a Jutish farm in
England in 500 AID, has an en-
chantment for theatergoers in
December, 1850.

Fry's play is so unique and in
tense that one is tempted to think
it lies beyond the conventions of
current drama and criticism. This
would be cheap evasion, un-
worthy of a daring and fasci-
mating innovator.
Fry is a dramatist and in Thor,
With Angels" makes dazzling
melodrama of a simple story. His
hero is a feudal Jutish lord. Re-
turning from battle, he spares the
life of a Briton boy whom he
should have killed as an especially
marked enemy soldier. His family
is aghast at such a mercy in such
man. 1t is certain the pagan
gods will avenge this strange act
of conscience. The hero, himself,
is puzzled by his inability to strike
the boy dead and by his continued
protection of the alien lad when
the others want to despatch him
quickly to Valhalla.
His play. therefore. is a drama
of conflict within a family which

Foreign Scholarships of FuIbright Act
Offer Opportunity for Performers
By Alice Eversmon

The educational exchanges
authorized under the Fulbright
Act are still in operation all over
the world in spite Of international
tensions. Music students. OF
those interested in allied branches
Of the performing art, will have
an opportunity to avail themselves
of the next awards, competition
for which has been announced
recently by the State Department
Openings are now to be had ir
Milan, Paris, Vienna and London
for the 1872 academic year. =
The competition closes or
October 81 and applicants not en-
rolled through the Fulbright pro-
gram adviser on college or uni
versity campuses should COM
municate with the Institute OF
International Education, 2 West
Fifty-fourth street New York 49,
N. Y, before October Is.
The application forms give de-
tailed information as to the re-
quirements. Two things are
essential. however. Only Ameri-
can citizens may apply and these
must have a sufficient knowledge
of the language of the country to
which they wish to go to enable
them to enroll in the schools. A
bachelor of arts degree or its
equivalent in professional train
ing is necessary.
Other Aims of Act.
While a sound educational
basis and an earnest desire to en-
large it at special sources are es-
sential, the Fulbright Act has
other aims in view also. Selection
Of candidates will be influenced a.
much by the abilities and per.
sonal characteristics which will
enable them to develop a true un-
derstanding of the people of the
host country and. upon their re-
turn, to communicate an honest
impression of this experience tc
their fellow citizens. The field OF
study, teaching or research which
is proposed by applicants for these
grants is Of secondary Importance
in the selective process"
Those who will undertake spe-
cial study through Government as
sistance will thus be given greater
responsibilities than just making
good in their chosen field. While
the fruit of their observations will
be more apparent in the many
other fields of study open under
the act, musicians should profit as
well. Certainly today, musical
education in any of the cities
listed cannot equal that to be had
in the United States. But there
are other things to be gained most
essential for the artistic broaden
ing of the talent of this country.
Since our musical heritage is
almost exclusively of foreign
origin. and will remain so for many
years. it is imperative that stu
dents be acquainted with all the
ingredients that made up the en-

vironments of the great COM
poSers. While artistic feeling has
no national boundaries, neverthe-"
less intimate association with the
land and it's people will reveal
new angles. There are nuances
to be grasped that cannot be ex-
pressed by editors markings on
the printed music page or the
tempo degrees on a metronome.
U. S. a Melting Pot.
Americans are fortunate in hav-
ing diverse national instincts
given them by their forbears.
Most of these have been diffused
in the melting-pot process Of
American education. Sympathie:
that ordinarily could be called
upon as a directive have been
erased and a gap created that Is
becoming all the more difficult to
bridge. Music has been frequently
called the universal language and
its function in assisting in the
establishing of world peace widely
proclaimed. This can never be ac-
complished, however, until first-
hand knowledge of the various
national characteristics is more
widespread.
The American musicians who
will study in Europe under these
grants can be of the greatest
assistance. In absorbing Old
World culture, they can retain
what is best and most influential
and discard what is not. From
this process they can direct the
path Of the music of the future
and give to it an individual cast.
They will be equipped to be lead
ers in a forward movement, fully
aware of what they are doing.
And because the voice of music
penetrates all nationalistic bar
riers, the understanding of a peo-
pie by others will be enlarged.
Competition for the grants is
keen. Three agencies cooperate
with the State Department and
the Board of Foreign Scholarships
in choosing the winners. Candi-
dates for graduate study come
under the Institute of Interna-
tional Education. The awards
provide transportation, tuition
and maintenance for the aca-
demic year. which. in exceptional
cases, may be renewed for second
year. In 1949, Al music students
were among the 851 grantees of
the foreign scholarships. OF the
LOOP foreigners enrolled at uni
versities of the United States, only
four were listed for music study.

 NV Pioneer,
 Dies at 92

SEATTLE, March 21-Mrs. Kath- crime L. Perkins, pioneer nurse Ill Nome, Alaska, at the turn of the century and widow of a former Un- iversity of Washington regent, died here Sunday. She was 92 years old
 Mrs. Perkins and her husband Col. William T. Perkins, graduated from the University of Michigan in 1884, where she studied medicine. He was law graduate.
 The couple practiced their respec- tive professions in Bismark, N. D. where Perkins was a Colonel in the North Dakota National Guard.
 Col. Perkins moved north with the gold rush of 1898 and prospected unsuccessfully. In 1900, Mrs. Per kins joined him in Nome, where they operated a general store until 1908. There Mrs. Perkins put her medical training to use and deliver ed some of the first white babies born in the far north village.
 After their return to the states Col. Perkins organized banks at Roy, Oakville, West Seattle and Kirkland. Perkins died in 1947.
