Virginia Tries New Policy
On Gamma GIobuIin Use
By the Assoeiated Press

RICHMOND, Oct. "a. = The
State Health Department and a
special polio committee of the
Medical Society of Virginia have
announced new policy that
provides more liberal use of
gamma globulin against polio.
The plan, which will be in ef-
feet the rest Of the year, raises
the age bracket within which
children are eligible for the
serum, and gives medical health
directors broader discretion in
distributing gamma globulin to
physicians attending intimate
contacts of a known case.
The new age bracket will be
six months through Is years. It
formerly was six months through
Ia years. Also, doctors can now
obtain the serum for intimate
contacts-such as regulaT play
mates and classmates-outside
the immediate household. Pre-
viously, in hon-epidemic condi-
tions, only household contacts
were eligible for the inoculationsD
The serum, a human blood de-
rivative, is not regarded as a
cure for polio, but is used to pre-
vent the spread Of the disease
and to reduce the paralytic ef-
fectS,

News Of Music
By Alice Eversmon

Robert McFerrin, baritone So
loist with the National SYM
phony Orchestra last night in
Cardoza High School Auditor
ium, proved himself, in both
arias and songs, a singer of dis
tinction. He came as close to a
triumph as any artist has in
this city. The recent winner of
the Metropolitan Opera Audi
tions of the Air, he was pre-
sented, together with the Ma
tional Symphony, by the Mon
roe PTA and ST. Luke's Episco-
pal Church.
A measure of success would
come naturally to Mr.. McFerrin
for the quality of his voice alone.
But in addition, he has the style
and the polish of delivery that
bespeakS, excellent training and
q responsive musical nature. The
strong, rich timbre Of his voice

holds also the kind Of sentiment
that gives the final touch Of
beauty to such numbers as "Vi-
sion Fugitive" from Massenet's
"Herodiade" and pulls the heart
strings in "Cortigiani, vii razza"
from Verdi's "Rigoletto."
The practically unteachable
feeling for dramatic effects and
nuances is his by nature. 1.-The
Greed of Pierre Cauchon" from
Dello Joio's THE Triumph of
Joan," which concluded his part
of the program, gave him an
other splendid opportunity to
prove this. It was sung force
fully and with communicative
fervor. On a smaller scale, the
artist put the proper emotional
feeling into Handel's majestic
"Dank sci Dir, Herr" and added
it to the simplicity of Grieg's
"Ich liebe dich." Mr.. McFerrin
is a serious artist, who, while OBJ
serving the musical niceties and
technical requirements, is guided
by his innate sensitivity.
Howard Mitchell's conducting
and the orchestra's playing
reused enthusiastic acclaim from
the audience. Barber's Overture
to "The School for Scandal" 4"
played in Constitution Hall
Wednesday night, was given as
Introductory number. DR.. Nit
chell has a special insight into
TSchaikowsky's Romeo and Ju-
liet" and directed it last night
as the orchestra's major offering,
so as to bring out all its descrip-
tive and dramatic elements.
The program was one filled
with emotional intensity from
beginning to end. With Bee
thoven's Overture ''Leonore No.
3" and Sibelius' "Finlandia," to-
gether with Mr.. McFerrin's Sc
lections, the full gamut of feeling
was run. The audience liked it
and SO did this reviewer.

A movie employing the same

Gregory'S trick of employing
stars in wholesale lots without
facing a suicidal impulse the first
payday that rolls around is SIM
pie. With him it is merely a
matter of ignoring contemporary
playwrightS. and except in the
case of Don Juan in He'll" past
playWrightS. That Gregory pro-
duction, the first and the one
that proved the formula, was by
Bernard Shaw.
Since then Gregory has heen
finding his drama in other types
of writer's, Stephen Vincent BIZ
net in the case of John Brown;
Herman Wouk in THE Caine
Mutiny' extract.
These types, living and work.
ing beyond the tight. restrictive
framework of the theater, can
write large enough to justify
the Gregory investment in tall
ent.
Mr.. Gregory, as a maker OF
high-class entertainment for the
mass of Americans, has no pref
udice against dramatiSts. 1t is
rather that he has a prejudice
in favor of story tellerS who are
free to function in overdrive.
From these, he has learned that
a producer does not have to
think in terms of Broadway
taste.
His first lesson came from the
44-year-old, virtually unpro-
duced third act of Shaw's Man
and Superman." This Don Juan
in He'll" production made a hit
that covered virtually the 3 mil
lion square miles of this re-
public. The size of it's success.
however, did not mislead Mr..
Gregory. He knew how it might
be with one off-beat triumph,
that it might be the only one.
So, in John Browns Body"
which Washingtonians will see
again November ST, at Constitu-
ton Hall, he made another try,
this one destined to be more re-
vealing. This was an epic poem,
the sort of thing that never got
on stages, no matter what its
popularity in its original form.
But Gregory kept remember
ing it all the days of his life
between reading it as a high
school lad in the Middlewest and
producing it in 1852. What he
liked that much, he thought,
Evening star., 1953-10-24

others should like also. When it
turned out that this was the
case, as the. result of piece of
editing that is even more artful
than its staging, Gregory was
set.
His latest slice of dramatic
literature written in the most
conventional shape, "The Caine
Mutiny Courtmartial." is the one
he approached with the greatest
confidence. He will bring it to
Broadway January 18, after a
tour across the country from
Pomona College, Pomona, Calf.
He will do it with the now
firm conviction that the theater
is a far more flexible institution
than it's more hardened practi-
tioners have been willing to ad-
NIT.

In this hectic age, petuniaS are still
loved by some, as the above letter shows.
In most gardens, more snowy blooms
are favoriteS-the great dahlia in the
fall the stately gladiolus in the sum-
mer, the beautiful iris in the spring,
also the glorious peony
Truly magnificent plants, these. and
deserving a place in every yard along
with roses. But there always should
be petunias, too, and zinnias. and snow
n-the-mountain, and candytuft.
What is the name of this yellow
flower that suddenly snaps open about
o'clock these evenings?
Every garden should have some plants
of this one-oh, yes, evening primrose.
AS to just why this vicinity does not
have sweet peas-well, that is anybody's
guess. People will tell you that they
are hard to grow here, but so are many
other flowers, for that matter.
1t must be soil conditions, some one
says: well, perhaps. but there is every
variety of soil hereabout, and yet no
sweet peas.
Maybe it is the soil of the human
mind that is to blame. In day when
the terrible atom bombs, and now even
the more infamous bomb, are subjects

dowbox make a good display, at the
same time they attract the smallest
and to many an eye the most beautiful
of all the birds.
THE other evening, at supper, We
were still seated in our little alcove
dining space, when pair of hummers
zoomed down to the box within few
inches of my nose.
Il was pleased no end to have these
beauties so close, and to watch the
almost invisible whirr of wings.
Some place have read about how
many times those wings flop per second,
and it was something tremendous, but
such knowledge adds nothing, really.
to ones appreciation.
After all, it is the littleness of the
birds that appeals, I think. to most
persons, and their beauty. 1t has been
an amazing thing to me to realize how
many persons are not at all interested
in dog life. or cat life, or even the
beautiful horses, and the helpful COWS,
but fall for the birds. After all. as
you have said sometime, birds are just
modified SerpentS, but people love them,

who might have posed for one of the
old witches Of European folklore, and

smiled, and her face lit up as if with

she was beautiful. thought. If birds
can do that to her. how much more
