Shows Increase
Breeds Of Dogs:
First Was 1859
By Peter Booos

Many dogs, hate dog shows,
and many dogs have contracted
fatal diseases at them. But it is
the dog show that has made the
dog what he is today
The first real dog show was
held in 1859. Steadily and rap
idly, the shows then grew in size.
And with them came mass of
new breeds, until the breed num-
berS swell to far above one hun
dred. In the early 18th century,
and before then, there were dogs
carefully bred for hunting, ETC.,
and a scattering of lapdogs.
Pointers. settlers, hounds, poo
dies, mastiffs, collies, toy span
iels and bulldogs were the chief
breeds-almost the only varieties
in any kind of public favor. Con-
traSt this half-handful with the
roster of breeds at any modern
show.

On Choral Music

Theodore Schaefer, organist
and choir director at the Ma
tional Presbyterian Church for
15 years, is in Minneapolis
this week to address the ma
tional convention of the Amer
lean Guild of Organists. His
subject is Choral Techniques
as Related to Conducting From
the Console"
Apart from his accomplish
ments at his church, where
he stresses the Importance of
the contemporary composer of
religious music, Mr.. Schaefer
has to his credit several
photograph records of choral
music Of Kodaly and Handel,
among others, conducted by
him, and the coaching and
accompanying Of many local
singers. Among singers of
more than local fame for
whom he Is accompanist are
Mildred Miller and Richard
Tucker. both of the Met.

the list, to see how many of
next years soloists with the
orchestra are this years re-
citalists), and the combination
of Isaac Stern and Gregor
Piatigorsky, violinist and cell
list, can mean only one thing
the Brahms A minor Dou-
BILE Concerto.
Robert Casedesus will be in
town both as recitalist and as
soloist with the orchestra,
and Clifford Curzon, possibly
the greatest of living English
pianists, will be heard for the
first time in several years.
Opero in Full
John Martin, first cellist of
the orchestra, will be soloist in
a work which may well turn
out to be the Don Quixote"
of Richard Strauss.
The most unusual concert
of the orchestra-it will be the
first of its kind since it's in
ception-will be a complete
performance of Mozart's "Cosi
fan lutte" under Paul Call
away. While there will be
neither costumes nor scenery,
this will be something other
than a concert performance,
for the cast will not use scores,
but will sing and act from
memory. The excellent cast is
made up of David Lloyd,
Phyllis Curtin, Mack Morgan
and others.
The season will close with a
gala performance of the NAH
Ter Second Symphony with
the Smith and Amherst Glee
Clubs in the choral parts. If
the six concerts as yet un-
announced are as good as
those disclosed here, DR..
Mitchell can be congratulated
on a f1rst-rate season.

State Will Ask
Reconsideration
For Drought Aid
USDA Announced
Friday Turn-Down
OF First Request

Despite Washington decision
late last week that Virginia does
not qualify for drought disaster
designation. Virginia officials are
mapping plans to request a USDA
reconsideration.
Seven Herald area counties. in
GLIDING Prince Edward. are in the
area of % counties for which
state farm and government lead
ers had asked disaster status so
that Federal program of feed
at reduced rates could be made
available
Secretary Of Agriculture Ezra
Taft Benson had announced Fri
day the rejection of the Virginia
request. One of BenSons aides
explained
Explains Stand
Under exist ng legislation,
States must be defined as dis
aster areas. and under those con-
ditions Virginia just doesn't mea-
sure up. When you try to compare
Virginia counties with other dis
aster areas-places like Alabama
in the South and Colorado in the
West 49, Virginia just doesn't
compare at all
Informed of the Federal de-
cision. Governor Stanley and
Commissioner Parke c. Brinkley
asked the State Drought Com
mittee to begin surveying the evil
dence again.
The committee asked its sub
sidiary county committees to be-
gin preparing reports, and the
State committee will meet here
Thursday to receive them A
comprehensive report probably
Will be sent to Stanley late
Thursday or early Friday.
Brinkley Puzzled
The Governor will decide how
to make the new request. Brink
ley said. He added he could not
understand why the United States
Department of Agriculture had
refused TO designate the counties
as drought disaster area.
He said three successive years
Of drought, regardless of any
recent rains, had left farmers
without reserves of feed or
capital.
