The series of homocides in .'Ten
Little Indians" faithfully follow the
Mother Goose rhyme. Although the
couplets Of the rhyme may not give
help in guessing the indentity of
the plays killer, they may provide
the audience with hints as to the
manner In which each successive
murder is to be carried out:
Ten little Indian boys going out

One choked his little self, and
there were nine.
Nine little Indian boys sat up

Colonial Williamsburg has a full
summer program scheduled for
its visitors.
Not far from the restored COM
munity, home Of the College Of
William and Mary, are James,
town and Yorktown. A trip along
the wide. winding Colonial park
way from Williamsburg to York
town is about as pleasant a drive
as there is in Virginia. with the
motorist wheeling along the tree
shrouded thoroughfare and along
the banks of the York River di-
rectly to the historic Yorktown
area.
Quiet. Serene Spot
The tiny island of jamestown
is a quiet. serene spot along the
James River, where visitors can
walk through a beautiful little
park and visit a museum filled
with relics from the Colonial
period.
Luray Caverns, Skyline drive
and Shenandoah Valley are other
attractions which are among the
most popular in the State. At

considered attempting to have
all road construction in the area
completed by the time of the
celebration. Also, they are sur
veying the area to determine
what the accommodation needs
will be.
New loke to Develop
Much planning also is being
made at the John H. Kerr Dam
and Reservoir, just of U. S.
Route / near South Hill. The
combination flood-control and
hydroelectric project, completed
only recently by Army engineers.
has created a lake with an 800
mile shoreline. and it affords an
excellent area for summer recrea-
ton, according to the State
Chamber of Commerce.
Development of the area is
now in it's early stages. with
State and local groups. as well
as the State of North Carolina,
carrying out details of what ulti-
mately will open an entire new
vacation spot in the Old Do
minion.
The Federal Government has
started to build parking and pic
mic areas near the lifelong dam
itself. A local park authority.
composed of citizens in Virginia s
Mecklenburg County. has leased
a 600-acre plot of land near a
bridge across the Roanoke River
at Clarksville and has advertised
for a concessionaire. The local
group has been appropriated
$4,000 by the Virginia General
Assembly for building up the
area.
Dock Planned EorIy
The group hopes to have a
floating dock and boating facil-
tiles in operation by early sum-
mer and picnic grounds and
other attractions by late sum-
mer. A beach has been leveled
during a low-water period, but
sand probably will not be poured
until next winter, according to
the chamber.
Fishing at the dam is excellent,
however. Anglers already are
visiting the area by the hundreds.
Their catches include silvers,
pike, perch and catfish.
Another improvement has
been made at Natural Bridge,
where a new $750,OOO gatehouse
will be available to late-season
visitors. The new gatehouse will
stand two-stories high and house
a gift shop, aforementioned cafe
terra, recreation room, beauty
salon, barber shop and the
Natural Bridge post office. An
indoor swimming pool is also
being constructed in the new
structure, complete with a beach
of real sand. Water temperature
in the pool will be controlled the
year around.

The beacheS-Colonial, Buck
roe and Virginia-all have made

extensive improvements for this
years guests. At Virginia Beach,
which has put the finishing
touches to its new 81 million
man-made beach. several hotels
have been completely redeco-
rated.
The Gay Manor, swept by fire
during the winter, has been
done over completely and is now
being operated under the name
of Sir Walter by the Sea. At the
Cavalier, which has changed
from a straight hotel into club
operation, many rooms have
been redecorated and air-condi-
tioning has been made available
on request.
At Colonial Beach, visitors will
find several major hotel i'm
provements, including expanded
piers. new amusement park
and improved boating and fish
ing facilities. The amusement
park, with a 60-passenger scale
model train and a number of
other rides. was built at a cost
estimated at between SIS, 900 and
$85. 900.
A new picnic pavilion, with
room for 500 persons, has been
construction at Buckroe Beach,
where there also is a new 49,
hole miniature golf course and
several new rides in an expanded
amusement park area. A new
monkey house has been built at
the amusement park, among
other things.
Fishing Excellent
Fishing at all these beach
areas is excellent. At Colonial
Beach rockfish averaging 4 to
8 pounds have been caught
regularly. A three-day Potomac
River festival will wind up at
Colonial Beach June 13.
OF course, a visit to the Old
Dominion is not complete with
out a Stopover at some of the
many historic shrines and at
fractions in the State. A trip to

only a good singer can do, of a
voice not equal to the demands
Of the composer.
The chorus delivered the mag
nificent contrapuntal movements
allotted to it with that infectious
excitement and unhampered
elan that even a good amateur
group does not always achieve.
The orchestra, too, merits praise.
although it certainly was bad
judgment to add a flute, oboes
and bassoon to the trumpets and
drums called for by Haydn. BY
the time the D minor mass was
written, the orchestra of Haydn
was a peerless inStrument-in-
flnitely subtle and ever varied.
Haydn in this. mass used only
an organ to give occasional dis
Greet relief from the persistent
string tone and the heavenly
grandeur Of the trumpetS and
drums. To replace the organ
with other instruments, as was
done last night. was only to
substitute for a completely origi-
nal scoring the conventional
sound Of typical eighteenth CEN
tury orcheStration.

Mass in d minor. Haydn.
Among the many rarely per-
formed works Of Josef Haydn
are the half dozen masses he
wrote at the end of his career.
In these masterpieces the un-
surpassed skin, the fanatical de-
votion to the art of music, and
the stunning originality and in
spiration OF the old master COM
bined to create a group of works
that is unique in the entire his
tory Of church music. The D
minor Mass, sometimes called
the Lord Nelson" or Imperial" "
performed last night at the
National Gallery by the Church
of the Reformation Cantata
Choir and the National Gallery
Orchestra, should be an indica-
ton that to those terms denoting
the touchstone of the type-the
operas of Mozart. the cantatas of
Bach. the songs of Shubert, the
string quartets of Beethoven
should be added the masses of
Haydn. They have few equals
among those with instrumental
accomplishments.
The exacting vocal polyphony
both of the small well-trained
chorus and of the solo quartet,
and the intense. nervous. and
somber drive of the orchestra
were well integrated in the per-
formance of Richard Bales. OF
the soloists, Peggy Zabawa had,
I should say, the most uncom-
promisingly taxing part, and
while she has a true, pleasant,
and serviceable voice, it is the
sure and instructive musicality
of her singing that one remem-

northern France and the ''low

high point of development in
these countries, the bells popu-

Beveridge Webster Heard
In Phillips Gallery Recital
By Irving Lowens


Phillips callsrs' prosra%: gram y Variae dae
tions on q Theme by Robert Schu-
mann, Opus 8. Brahms. Voyage
Mutt. Ravei; Sonata in c minor.
Opus Ill. Beethoven.
To those not fully aware of
Beveridge Webster's talents, yes
terday afternoons extraordinary
recital at the Phillips Gallery
must have proved quite a revela-
ton. Here is a pianist equipped
with much more than a consum-
mate technique. OF greater con-
sequence is his bold musical
imagination. The rare combina-
tion of the two is cause for gen.
uine enthusiasm.
Few performers are known to
this reviewer who can success
fully project such radically diff
ferent works in point of style
as Ravel'S "Gaspard de la Mutt"
and Beethoven's last piano So
nata. To play both during the
course of the same program with
equal power, nuance, and poetry
is a sensational accomplishment
and a striking exhibition of YER
Satility.
Preceding the Ravel, Mr..
Webster presented what was no
doubt the first Washington per-
formance Of a piano suite by
William Schuman completed last
year. The president of the JUL
lard Institute is no dry acade-
mician. The cycle of five pieces
called Voyage" shows him in
a mood of steely impressionism.
The work is full of tense, restless
sound; it has the clean astrin-
gency of a dash of cold water
and the driving, nervous energy
characteristic of this composer.
Schuman is fortunate in having
an interpreter of Mr.. Webster's
astounding virtuosity; in lesser
hands the work would lose much
Of its effectiveness.
During the playing of Gas
pard de Ia Mutt" a piano string
in the treble register snapped.
There appeared to be some doubt
whether it would be possible for
Mr.. Webster to continue with the
Beethoven Opus III, but a minor
surgical operation restored the
instrument to partial health and
the sonata was magnificently
performed.
