He's had 10 hits in SO times at

He admitted, however, that he

ConceIing Wotergote Symphony Series
May Bring Home Idea of Sponsorship
By Alice Eversmon

Tonight was to have been the
opening of the National Sym
phony's season at the Watergate
had finances made it possible. The
fact that no concert by the Or
chestra will be given there this
summer is a deprivation for all
those who must remain in the
city during the month of July
1t will also lessen the attractions
for summer visitors who could ex-
perience something at the Water
gate unmatched anywhere in this
country. The site on the Poto-
mac, surrounded by historic scenes,
may not mean much to localities,
but it provides a real thrill for
out-of -townerS whose reverence
for the Nations Capital and all
it represents is great.
It would seem that the city
fathers, if not the Government
itself, would recognize this point
and do everything possible to pre-
serve and further it. True, the
Government has allowed use of
this Federal property and replaced
the old barge with a more mod
ern one. But little thought has
been given to minimize the risks
that attend every production at
the Watergate. Even the weather
hazards could be met with some
ingenuity and at a cost that would
not be greater than some of the
other expensive and not-too-
worthwhile building that has
been sanctioned.
Weather Is Disseminating Factor
People are good sports about
the weather as has been shown
time and again. Only last week
a fair-sized audience was willing
to sit on wet and dirty chair:
under threatening skies just Il
hear second performance o1
LA Traviata." Audiences at the
Symphony concerts have demon
strated the same stamina yet the
discomfort has often been great
Several things become apparent
from the many years experience
of giving events at the Watergate
First is the desire of the public
to attend these affairs. But the
second, the lack of any effort or
the part of those in control tc
better the situation, is of supreme
Importance. That no one in power
could stop the annoyance Of the
roaring planes overhead is ar
example of the Indifference. This
nuisance has continued for years
So has the lack of any provision
for shelter on rainy nights OF
when sudden storms come up.
1t is all piece with the atti-
tude toward cultural efforts ir
this city. The Symphony begs
and begs for funds each season
and can barely get together what
1t needs. It's cancellation of this
summers Watergate concerts is
wise for there is no use taking
risks and adding deficit wher
plans for the winter season re-
quire every penny. Perhaps it!
financial status can be betterec
Evening star., 1951-07-01

without the summer concerts and
the people of Washington made
more conscious of what these con-
certs mean in the hot days.
Individual citizens and a few
business firms have given what
they can to support the Symphony.
It's upkeep, however, should rest
on the shoulders of all the busi-
ness concerns. Other cities have
shown how this can be done. The
Detroit Symphony will be re-
sumed next season because of a
new policy. In place of a single
person contributing and control
ling the life of the symphony. busi-
ness firms were asked to pledge
$4,000 or $4,000 yearly and no
more. The city itself is alone per-
mitted to exceed this amount,
$25, 900 being donated at once. Al
ready $4,000 has been pledged
for each season for three years,
most of it coming from business,
labor. financial, industrial organi-
cations and educational founda-
tions. Of course, Detroit is diff
ferent from Washington in this
respect 80 for numerous wealthy
firms are established there.
Philadelphia Deficit Low.
The City of Philadelphia has
helped the Philadelphia Orchestra
to have a most unusual account
ing this season by its contribution.
The deficit for this orchestra the
past season was $23.61, not $23,-
610 or even $2,361, but actually
E$23.61. Record royalties and other
income that the National Sym
Iphony does not have, helped to
bring about the amazing deficit
figure. Here again the city gov
ernment and the business inter-
ests recognize the need of sup
porting their great orchestra.
! It must be hard for other centers
to believe that money to finance
cultural ventures is hard to get
in Washington. It has come to
the point that those vitally con-
|cerned with the city's progress for
business reasons, if for no other,
and those on its governing board,
must take cognizance Of the Situa-
ton. There should be something
done to provide adequate shelter
for summer entertainment either
by way of coverage for the Water
gate site or the building of an
out-of of-door auditorium. The Car
ter Baron Memorial Amphitheater
serves one purpose only.
/ If 38 business firms pledged
$1,000 yearly, the annual sustain
ing fund for the Symphony's win
ter concerts would be met. This
group of people could serve as
directors planning and enlarging
the possibilities Of the only major
musical organization the city has.
Much devising and thought is
given to attracting large conven-
tions or groups of tourists to
Washington. Both the winter and
summer concerts could be made a
special attraction II included in
