Eugene Ormandy. conductor Of
the Philadelphia Orchestra, left
last nights audience In q mood
of exaltation at the end OF the
first part of the second Constitu-
tion Hall concert this season.
Rudolf Serkin. the orchestra's
soloist, did as much for. the last
half. In every way 1t was an ex-
Fceptional performance. filled with
the particular spirit that is not
always easy to capture. When
such is present, the audience has
more than the fine playing 1t paid
to hear. The intangibles Of music
reach 1t and abide with it.
The conductor attained this re-
suit with the first local presenta-
ton of Paul Creston's Sym
phony No. g." The new work by
the American composer, who is
forging rapidly to the front as a
notable musical personality. Is by
far his best. His imagination is
ignited and discovers fresh and
telling orchestral devices to ex-
press his idea, and the inspiration
of the idea never flags.
The symphony is subtitled
Three Mysteries" and deals with
"The Nativity" 1.-THE Crucif1xion"
and 1.-The Resurrection" Perhaps
the most endearing part about the
music is it's inability, in spite OF
the composers great skill. to en-
vision completely the emotions
connected with this sacred sub
ject. It is human in its limita-
tions vis-a-vis the grandeur and
profundity he would depict.
One Of these is the conclusion
of the "Crucifixion" movement.
Here he leaves the audience lis
tening to the faint, high, hageolet
tones of the two first chair violins.
sounding ethereally after the
tumult of the tragic consumma-
ton. There is as much exalted
drama in the surrounding move
ments.
Basically, the composer has
used themes from the Gregorian
Chant on which to build SYM
phonically and given them just
enough touch of dissonance in the
development to breathe them into
more vivid life. The writing moves
with surety and directness. Aside

New Faces in Congress
New Faces in Congress -
Herman Weiker, Rugged Foe
OF Fair Deal, Replaces Taylor

Idaho is sending to the Senate,
as a replacement for Senator
Glen Taylor, broad-shouldered
son of the West who came up the
hard way.
He is Herman Welker, q rugged,
square-jawed lawyer. once a
sheep -herder and ranch hand, who
waited on tables and washed
dishes to put himself through law
school. He went on to become a
Hollywood lawyer and an out
standing Idaho State Senator.
The departure of the resonant
voiced Taylor apparently will
cause no void in Senator oratory,
for Mr.. Welker is reputed to have
a resounding style Of his own.
Foe Of Acheson.
The Senator ELECT, of conserya-
tive mold, made a determined
campaign against what he termed
Fair Deal socialism" and called
for replacement Of Secretary Of
State Acheson.
On this latter point. he asked
for an "all-American. consistent
foreign policy. in competent
hands" that would be backed by
a military might sufficient to dis
courage an aggressor. He char
acterized the State Department as
a regime of failure that has lost
the peace but said he would favor
continued foreign aid as insurance
against the spread Of communism.
Senator Taylor was defeated In
the Democratic primary by D.
Worth Clark. a former Senator.
In his campaign, Mr.. Welker had
been attacking Taylor policies but
after the latter's primary defeat
switched to a general attack on
the Fair Deal.
This narrowed issues. since both
Mr.. Welker and Mr.. Clark
opposed the Columbia Valley
Authority and organized labor
spokesman bypassed both candi-
dates.

Mr.. Serkin was entirely pos

The songful themes were sketched
with tenderness and fire blazed
in dramatic moments. His trill
is particularly lovely, as are the
ripping scales and the flowing

work that rigidly observes Bee

by Mr.. Ormandy to bring out
