Associated Press Stoff Writer

A laWmaker who proposed flag
rank" for leaders of the women's
armed forces may have stuck his
well-meaning head into an angry
hive.
The proposal by Republican
SasScer, Democrat, Maryland,
member of the House Armed Serv-
ices Committee, comes right in the
midst of a wave of resentment
over the naming of Wave re-
serve officer as director of women
in the Air Force.
Mr.. SasScer said yesterday he
would introduce a bill that would
give brigadier general rank to the
senior officer in the Women's
Army Corps, the Army Nurses
Corps, the Air Force and Marines.
His bill likewise would put the
stripes of a rear admiral on the
sleeves Of the senior Office in the
Waves and in the Navy Nursing
Corps.
At first glance that proposal
could be expected to soothe the
girls ruffled feelings somewhat.
But take second look:
Mr.. Sasscer's bill would give the
senior officer in the Waves and
the Navy Nurse Corps two stars in
their flags as rear admirals while
the heads of the Women's Army
Corps. Air Force, Army Nurse and
Marines as brigadier generals
woul rate only one star.
That easily might stir up a new
storm even more violent than the
one now raging over the appoint
ment of Miss Mary 10 Shelly, a
Naval Reservist, to head the WAF.
BY existing law the highest rank
a woman in uniform can hold is
colonel even if she heads a corps
OF 100000 as did Col. Oveta Hobby,
first WAC director during the last
war.
THE time has arrived when we
must fully recognize and show
our appreciation for the splendid
work which has been done and is
increasingly being done by the
women in our Armed Forces" Mr..
Sasscer said.
His proposal comes on the eve
OF the expected signing by Presi-
dent Truman of the draft extern
sion bill which lift for three years
the present limitation on the size
OF the women's units.
Plans are afoot to greatly ex-
pand the WAC and WAF - es-
pecia1ly the latter.
The Air Force proposes to in
crease its 7,000-woman force to
$4,000 by next June, while the
Army, the largest of the three
branches. hopes to increase it's
present strength of about 11.6O0
to 10000 by then. The Navy and
Marines are taking it slower.
The women in all services are
puzzled over the rather sudden
resignation for personal reasons"

director and her replacement by

Double Bill Opera
AT Wotergote Is
Well Received
By Alice EYersmon

The Philadelphia Civic Grand
Opera Company'S presentation of
the double bill of "Cavalleria Rus
ticana" and "Pagliacci" was re-
ceived with enthusiasm at the
Watergate last night. The per-
formances were noted for the
excellent singing of the principals
which far excelled the acting with
a few exceptions.
Herva Nelli's beautiful voice
adorned the music of Santuzza's S
part in "Cavalleria" even though
her preoccupation with the con-
ductor made her presentation
seem something of a concert per-
formance. Andrew Mckinley as
Turiddu was less satisfying vo-
cally although he tried to invig-
crate his delineation with virle
action. Special praise should go
to Maria Pasca whose Mama Lucia
was worked out to the nth degree.
She has the ability to make a
small part seem important in es-
tablishing the entire picture.
In spite of the fine quality of
their voices, Thomas Perkins, i'm
personating Alto, and Susanne
Yeager, Lola, did little histrioni-
cally to make the characters dis
tinctive. A rather sluggish SicilianI
spirit ran through the entire per-
formance with the chorus very in
secure in the music allotted it.
"Pagliacci'' was better cast.
Cesare Bardelli showed himself the
only singer in the company able
to be heard over the airplanes.
About six passed over the Water
gate during his singing of the
Prologue" yet his powerful voice
rose above the noise of the engines.
When, as the clown, Tonic, in the
first scene, he shook his fist at an
other plane looming over, the
audience was in sympathy with
him.
Walter Fredericks took the part
OF Canio. He is splendid singer
with a robust voice that seems
limitless in its resources. The "VestiI
la giubba" aria was delivered in
broad free style and without any
strain. The silent pantomine that
brings the scene to dramatic close
was less convincing than his act
ing in the earlier part. Maria
Coffey displayed a pleasant quality
OF voice as Media, but she has still
to learn how to handle herself on
the stage.
Although John Tyers looked like
a well-dreSsed American in the
role of Solvio, he sang and acted
unusually well. His finely schooled
voice is one of the best in the COM
pany and his intelligent approach
to characterization has been evi-
dent in all the roles he has sung.
In less developed way, he has the
same idea of opera presentation
that makes Mr.. Bardelli's work the
most reWarding of the cast. John
RosSi was a satisfying Beppe in
singing and Interpretation.
Corrado Muccini conducted and
the "Intermezzo" in "Cavalleria'
was given an exceptionally fine
reading.
