TWO HIT-AND-RUN
ACCIDENTS OCCUR
IN HYDE SATURDAY

Two hit-and-run accidents occur
red last Saturday evening on the
Mattamuskeet causeway, and Off
GERS have not yet been able to ap-
prehend the party or parties re-
sponsible for them. However, as a
result of the second accident, a
warrant has been issued charging
Frank Peterson of Norfolk, form
erly of Hyde County, with hit-and-
run driving.
In the first accident an oncoming
car hit the 1eft-hand side of 1852
Studebaker, driven by T. c. Gibbs
of Washington, doing approximate

seen since.
Highway Patrolman W. E. Will

car that struck him.
Patrolman Williams also reports
having investigated another acct

GLIM P S ES
T HI E p A S T
By CAROLYN LLOYD

i. l have recently furthered my
education by reading cook
book. That might surprise some
of my friends, among whom l
am not exactly noted as cook;
and the truth is that l haven't
tried any of the recipes, but the
Southern Cook Book, proved to
be both interesting and instruct
ional. In it 1 found the answer
to a question which has plagued
me since childhood. l was once
addicted to novels about English
aristocracy, and it seemed to me
that the titled lords and ladies
were always eating something
called "trifle" or drinking
something called a "posses" l
had only a vague idea as to what
they nigh be; but now, thanks
to the Southern Cook Book, l
know.
The recipe given for a trifle
was copied from the Court and
County Confectioner". London,
ITO, and is as follows Cover
the bottom of your dish with
Naples Biscuit (Lady Finger),
broken in pieces, Mackaroons,
and Ratifia Cakes, just wet them
all with sack Sherry, pour on
a good boiled custard when cold,
then a whipt Syllabub over
that" Now there's another my
stery-what are Ratafia cakes?
AS for posset, here is the re-
clpe for Sir Walter Raleigh's
Sack Posset: GA eggs, II table

tablespoons ale, Y ID. sugar.
little nutmeg, l qt cream" Per-
haps Sir Walter had a little dram
of that posset under his belt
when he went to his death so
CALAMITY.
The same characters in those
novels were always suffering
from govt, a disease sometimes
brought on by overindulgence in
rich food and drink. No wonder.
Another thing which used to
puzzle me in books was frequent
reference to calves foot jelly.
Anyone who read the "Pslly-
anna" books will remember that
Pollyanna, that paragon of girl
ish virtue, was always taking a
dish of calves jelly foot to some
invalid. 1t sounded anything but
appetizing to me at the time, as
couldn't imagine invalid, or
anyone else, wanting to eat any
thing made from a calls foot.
Years after 1 had outgrown the
Pollyanna books, l learned that
| I had been eating the stuff for
years as just plain old jello.
The Southern Cook Book con-
tains many other interesting re-
cipes, many of them brought to
the South from other lands.
Some of them call for so many
rich and varied ingredients that
neither the average Southern
pocketbook or the average
Southern digestion could afford
to sample them more than once
today. One can not imagine
them being prepared on that
atomic range 1 talked about last
week or in modern kitchenette.
They also shed a little light on
why our ancestors as a whole,
tipped the scales heavier than
we do today.

The eleventh annual American
Music Festival opened at the
National Gallery last night with
a piano recital by Leonard Eisner.
Mr.. Eisner is a superb player,
with richness in his powerful
playing and smoothness in his
lyric playing.
This control was particularly
evident in the moving under
statement of Copland's "Our
Town" excerpts and the glowing
evanescence of Critics Three
Tone Pictures"
AS is sometimes true with an
unusually musicianly performer,
Mr.. Eisner almost succeeded in
giving the Mcdowell Sonata

serves. despite its accomplished
technique and imposing purpose.
1t is certainly justifiable on such
a program, however, to recall the

Pope BIesses $4,000

VATICAN CITY, April 5.-Pope
Plus XII last night made his
second public appearance since
becoming i'll more than two

the window of his Vatican palace
apartment and blessed $4,000
worshipers kneeling in st. Peters
Square below.
The 78-year-old Pontiff ap-
peared at his fourth-hoor window
just at nightfall and stood there
for nearly four minutes, moving
his hands and arms almost con-
tinuously in the blessing gesture.

Their performance quality was
another matter. The five play
ers were obviously at different
levels of proficiency. Occasional
searchings for note or for the
beat marred the playing, and
the players were only approx
mately together most of the time.
But one can scarcely expect lay
men to make their own instru-
ments and yet play them like
professionals.

the music of Chopin demands it.
Chopin attracts all pianists. and
he has been cursed by. many
vulgarities, ineptitudes and ira
ditionS for which his music can
not be blamed. Thus the dislike
many people have acquired for
the music of Chopin is often
the result, not of what he wrote,
but of what they hear.
This reflection is prompted by
the recital of Artur Rubinstein
yesterday in Constitution Hall,
for it displayed Chopin with a
love, care and taste that showed
the great Pole to be, in his re-
stricted field, a master. Absent
entirely were the seaSick tempos
that pass for rubatos, the ham
mered melodies that pass for
legato playing, the sentimental
ity that passes for emotion, and
the pedal-puShing that passes
for tone color.
Mr.. Rubinstein played with an
impeccability that was never
drynesS. Such moments as he
gave us in the A fiat etude and
in the slow movement of the
sonata were pianism of the high
est order. A Rubinstein and a
few others only can make single
