The coronation, which made
such an effective broadcast and
handsome movie, also makes
an impressive recording.
For home consumption the
British are producing a three
record documentary of the
event, not yet arrived here.
Victor, meanwhile, has turned
out q single LIP which manages
to touch most Of the high
lights.
It Is to the BBC'S credit that
the project comes off so well,
for its announcers provide the
description and continuity.
The disc starts with a look into
Buckingham Palaces peaceful

great day. complete to SPAR

golden coach through cheer
ing throngs to Westminster:
listens in on the dramatic
moments within, again turns
outside for the respondent
parade through the city and
finally returns to Buckingham
for Elizabeth's appearance on
the balcony.
It was q wonderfully excit-
ing day, and the excitement
comes through-in the fan
fares, the shouts and cheers.
the martial music, even in the
voices of the announcers, who
clearly are not pretending
their emotion. And there is
high drama, of course, in the
voices Of the participant-the
archbishop, the peers, Philip
pledging personal homage,
Churchill eloquent at the days
end, and Of the queen herself,
solemnly swearing to govern
righteously and later speaking
in dignifled (and ever so
slightly Churchillian) phrases
to the world.
Little Music, However
The disappointment in this
disc. for the music minded
especially. is that virtually
none of the considerable music
heard in the abbey is included.
Even the great Handel anthem,
traditional at coronationS-
"Zadok the Priest cut in
the middle. Condensation in
evitably destroys much of the
suspense, too. Some, there
fore, doubtless will wish to
investigate the more complete
HMV recording when it be-
comes available.
The coronation has brought
a windfall of recordings of
British music, several of them
quite noteworthy. Vaughan

phony'-a first recording,
though the music was COM
pleted in 1922-is particularly
interesting. Richly teXtured
and redolent of the English
landscape, but in mood rather

pictorialism, this symphony is
we'll worth hearing. The
finale includes wordless So

recording by Margaret Ritchie.

mails any more. To be sacred, a
thing had to be consecrated by a
conscious act of man. The quality
of holiness is not in the grain of
matter. It is a preciousness be-
slowed upon things by an act of
relation to God.
There is no mention of a sacred
place in the Ten Commandments.
On the contrary, following the
event at Sinai, Moses is told: "In
every place where I cause My
name to be mentioned I will come
unto thee and bless thee" Exo-
dus 20:24). The awareness that
sancitity is not bound to a parti-
cular place made possible the rise
of the synagogue. The temple was
only in jerusalem, while the
synagogue was in every village.
There are fixed times, but no

aspects of holiness: the holiness
of the Name of God, the holiness

HOLINESS IN TIME

Holiness in space, in nature,
was known in other religions.
New in the teaching of Judaism
was that the idea of holiness was
gradually shifted from space to
time, from the realm of nature
to the realm of history, from
things to events. The physical
world became Invested of any in
herent sanctity. There were no

rael. The holiness of the Land of
Israel is derived from the holiness
of the people of Israel. The land
was not holy at the time of Terah
or even at the time of the Patri-
archs. It was sanctified by the
people when they entSred the
land under the leadership of
Joshua. The land was sanctified
by the people, and the Sabbath
was sanctified by God.
The sense of holiness in time is
expressed in the manner in
which the Sabbath is celebrated.
No ritual object is required for
keeping the seventh day, unlike
most festivals on which such OBJ
jects are essential to their observ-
ance, as, for example, unleavened
bread, Shofar, Lulab and Etrog or
the Tabernacle. On that day the
symbol of the Covenant, the
phylacteries, displayed on all days
of the week, is dispensed with.
Symbols are superfluous: the
Sabbath is itself the symbol.
Every seventh day a miracle
comes to pass, the resurrection
of the soul, of the soul of man and
of the soul of all things. A medic
val sage declares: The world
which was created in six days
was world without a soul. It
was on the seventh day that the
world was given a soul. This is
why it is said: land on the seven

ported here last night by doctors

ing like a normal infant, was
ready today to leave Riley Hos

DR.. John D. Van Nuys, dean

ing to prevent the father from
taking the baby home.

two stomachs, joined to a single
intestinal tract. It had been de-
termined previously that there
is only one heart. and doctors
had thought there was only a
single set of internal organs.
