A program devoted to cham

three diversified works. two Of

other from 1918. The members
of the Quintet are George

Pianist With Facile Technique.
The Phillips Gallery. yester-
day afternoon. presented Rivka
Gwily Broido in a piano recital,
one of the last the artist will
give before returning to Israel
for a concert tour. She included
in her program, and made it the
highlight of her performance. a
set of Five Pieces for Piano,
op. a." by the renowned Israeli
composer, Paul Ben-Haim.
To this collection, subtitled
"Pastorale," "Intermezzo," Cap
riccio." "Canzonetta" and "Toc-
cata," Mrs. Broido brought a
greater degree of personal ex-
preston than she showed in
other works. Her technique is
very facile with equalized finger
development that gives excep-
tional clarity to her playing. Ben
Hams pieces made wide range
of demands on it, all of which
she met excellently. The flute
like theme in the "Pastorsle"
over a simple bass, and the
charming "Canzonetta" called
forth the fine legato Mrs. Broido
commands. The composer has
many original ideas and a sure
craftsmanship in both poetic and
virtuoso vein. The brilliant and
fiery "Toccata," came through
beautifully clear in the pianist's
swift and fluent delivery.
The performance of Bach's

Sonata in A Major, No. II, K.

was without variety of approach.
While the clarity of the artists
delivery and her observance of
soft and loud contrasts were
pleasing, there was a metronomic
exactness to her playing that
verged on the monotonous. Nor
did she show a comprehension Of
the different characteristics OF
the composers styles or resort
to appropriate tonal tinting
That she is capable of greater
freedom and breadth was shown
in her presentation Of Ben
Hams work. She played to a
warmly appreciative audience.

from her nurse. she paraded

Elizabeth's early consciousness
Of her position may have been
due to her doting grandfather
King George v. whom she called
"Grandpapa England"
Once he held her up on the
palace balcony to show her of
to a crowd below and whispered
They're cheering for you, you

The little girl beamed with de-
light and a few days later was
caught testing her royal author
ity by ordering a playmate to

From these and other stories

Yet the queenship seemed fal

the popular young Duke and
Duchess of York when she was
born early in the morning OF
April 81, 1926 in the nome OF
her maternal grandfather, the
Earl of Strathmore, at II Bru-
ton street, London.
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary
Windsor was royal princess ir

to the throne-behfnd her Uncle
David and her own father who
told friends he himself was mot

Before she was 10, "Grandpa
England" died. Uncle David, the
dashing Prince of Wales, became
Edward VIII, and abdicated after
324 days for the love of or
American divorce. Her father
became King George vi. and by
a sharp twist in fate she had
come into the direct line of sue
ceSsion.
A Queen at rs Years
George vi died February 6

princess became queen. It was
less than 26 years since her birth
when, according to ancient
custom, since discarded as ar.

William Joynson- Hicks was or

royal princess. The report is that
the tiny princess showed hel
independence at once by yaWn-

Sun Shone on Childhood.
The rearing of children in the
British royal family, though
modified down through the
years, had long followed the
general Victorian pattern that
strength of character was de-
veloped by severity and even re-
preston.
But the shy Duke Of York
preferred the life of a country
gentleman to the limelight and
was determined to shield his
young daughter from the over
powering shadow of the crown
as much as possible. His wife.
a Scottish commoner named
Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, dreaded
the bleak rigidity of royalty's
life, too.
So there was nothing austere
or primitive about the princess
early upbringing.
In the days of my childhood"
she remarked years later, 1.-The
sun seemed always to be shin
ingy'
She invented a nickname for
herself as soon as she could talk.
Elizabeth was too much Of a
tongue -tWister. The best she
could do was "Lilibet"-and "Lil-
ibet" she remains even today in
the royal family circle.
Elizabeth was only 4 when
sister Margaret was born. She
showed no Jealous resentment
against the newcomer to the
nursery. Instead. Lilibet showed
a maternal instinct and wanted
to take complete charge of the
new baby.
Over the years an unusually
close bond of companionship,
even for sisters, has grown.
Elizabeth always has been the
more serious and determined.
Margaret the gayer and more
mischievous.
They had the usual sisterly
scraps. Lilibet, when provoked,
flashed a fiery temper and wasn't
beyond making Margaret mind
with a hefty clout.
Their early years were as
nearly normal as was possible
for two daughters Of a royal
duke. They got as dirty making
mud pies in the garden as any
youngsters. They spent hours
dressing dolls and playing house.
and ran wildly about at hop
scotch and hide-and-seek games.
They had many pets. Eliza

horses. She learned to ride at
the age of three and was given
her own Shetland pony on her
