In answer to Mrs. j. c.,
Silver Spring, Georgetown.
DEL, is a small friendly town
and also a very nice town.
You should not have any
trouble in finding a place to
live, either in a house or
apartment. Both Rehoboth
Beach and Lewes. DEL. are
about 18 miles from George
town and are connected by o
good highway. Rehoboth Is
on the ocean and Lewes is on
the Delaware Bay. Both are
famous for seafood and have
several nice restaurants.
Georgetown has only one good
restaurant and that is on Mar
ket street. For any further
information write me in care
of RICH as I lived there all my
life until about a year and a
half ago. I visit there very
often now.

SCRAPPLE.
mrs. E. w. NJ. Takoma Park
Here is a recipe for scrapple
that I have used for sometime
and like very much. Three
pounds pork butts, 3 quarts
water, 3 teaspoons salt, boiled
down to 2 quarts. Put meat
through grinder. Strain the
broth, add 2 cups of yellow
corn meal, l teaspoon ground
sage. l teaspoon ground thyme,
l bay leaf. Boil for 10 min
utes. stirring constantly. Re-
move bay leaf. Add meat, stir
well and mold in pans. Don't
remove fat from meat. The
scrapple can be started to fry
in cold skillet, slowly and will
need no additional fat. I make
half Of this recipe which will
make about 3 pounds of
scrapple.

My dog, who is now 10
months old, has been a con-
tinuouS digger. Not only does
he dig holes all over our yard,
but he has dug up and chewed
up nearly all the flowers and
lots of shrubbery. I thought
he'd outgrow it, but so far he
hasn't and something has to
be done about it. We are de-
voted to him and would hate
to give him up. Has any one
had this problem and solved
it? Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.

appeal and asked for q session.
Russians Make Demand.
Diplomatic sources said they
got their request to MIR. Lodge
just a few minutes before the
Soviet Union formally demanded
a meeting. \
The Russians first came to the
aid of the Guatemalan govern
ment last Sunday, when Soviet
Delegate Semyon K. Tsarapkin
vetoed a Brazilian resolution to
Shunt the Guatemalan case to
the Organization of American
States.
The inter-American organiza-
tons five-nation Peace Commit
tee announced in Washington
last night that, if Guatemala
agrees, it will send a fact finding
committee to check on the
charges against Nicaragua and
Honduras.
Guatemala's reply to the pro-
posal was reported on the way
to the committee. Some mem
bers said they understood it
would be favorable.
Resolution Ignored.
After the Soviet veto in the
Council Sunday, the group
ended a bitter meeting by ap-
proving unanimously a French
resolution calling for an imme-
diate cease-f1re and calling on
all U. N. members to refrain
from assisting the fighting forces
on both sides.
Guatemala nnessaged the
Council Tuesday that the resolu-
ton was being ignored and that
persons inside Honduras and
Nicaragua were still helping the
rebels.
Honduras and Nicaragua de-
MED the complaint.
Guatemala requested a meet
Ing on Wednesday but Mr.. Lodge
took no action. Guatemala
complained again yesterday that
her towns were being bombed
and asked again for a meeting.
Mr.. Lodge had maintained
that the matter was being taken
up by the Inter- American Peace
Committee and that the regional
group was the proper place for
the initial effort to stop the
fighting.

The girls of the National

the inspiring direction of Rich

tackled a tough program of
classic and contemporary choral
works which made not the
slightest concession to their
amateur status and made real
music.
The big piece of the evening
was the difficult Bach motel
"Jesu, meme Freude," sung in
English. This. was performed
with harpsichord, cello and
double bass rather than a cap
pella, in line with the belief that
such an accomplishment is I'm
plicit in the score although Bach
did not actually specify its use.
Particularly in the deeply affect
ing chorales, they achieved genu-
inc eloquence. If the contra
puntal sections went a shade less
smoothly, the performance as a

In matters Of diction. Mr.. Nor

whole was still a notably fine one.
The 10 folk song settings by
Johannes Brahms which high
lighted the second half of the
program were done with remark
able precision and a wealth Of
nuance. The fact that these, too,
were sung in English rather than
the original German helped the
boys and girls to project their
varied moods with satisfying
f1exIbility.
The evening concluded with
a rousing performance of Con-
slant Lambert's jazzy 1.-THE Rio

begins more and more to sound
like a period piece rather than
music of permanent value.
Edwin Davis, who was featured
in the tricky piano part to the
Lambert work, also delighted the
large audience with his skillful
performance. of three Ravel

National symphony Orchestra,
Howard Mitchell, conductor. Soloist:
Gina Bachanes, piano: Constitution
silla, K 1875, Mozart; Concerto No. 2.
in C minor, Opus IS: Rachmaninoff
Symphony No. /. in D. Mailer.
The second piano concerto of
Rachmaninoff is a remarkable
work. Everybody likes it. Plan
lists like it because it lies well
under the fingers, conductors be-
cause the orchestra can be made
to sound superb, and audiences
because it is by Rachnaninoff.
The curious thing about the piece
is that. except in the middle
movement. the piano is prac-
tically Superf1uous.
Although this observation is
the result of last nights per-
lormance by Gina Bachauer and
the National Symphony under
Howard Mitchell, it is not made
in Disagreement of either Soloist
or conductor. 1t is the state
ment of a fact I have observed
over many years in many halls.
One can see the SoloiSt thump-
ing away at the Steinway, but
one hears only the orchestra,
except when everybody has a
coffee-break and the piano
emergeS from the weller of
sound as unruffled and urbane
as seal from the depths of an
aquarium.
Nine. Bachauer gave every
evidence of playing the piano as
loud as she was able, and if DR..
Mitchell had restrained the Or
cheStra more than he did the
music would have seemed futile
rather than nobly resigned. It
was only in the second move
ment that the straightforward
dignity and pathos of Mime.
Bachauer's playing was discern
ible.
Mahler'S first symphony,
known in England as the
Coronation" symphony and in
Germany as the "Lowenbrau-
keller" symphony, is so seldom
