Amish and the Mennonites.
Jimmy stopped at a country
store. got in conversation with
some natives and ultimately
identified himself.
He was informed that none
of the Amish had seen the show,
which is about them, but that
some of the younger members
had petitioned for relaxation of
the religious rules about wasting
time on anything as fancy as a
stage show. This was refused.
However, new petition is in
effect which may allow a day

The first half of the evening

reject it at first hearing because
of its apparent formlessness and
rough, resentful individuality

When Ralph Kirkpatrick was
in Washington recently he
spoke of Albert Fuller as his
most rewarding pupil, Whether
the greatest of contemporary
harpsichordists was speaking of
his pupils past and present, or
specifically of those now study
ing under him, I do not know.

Fuller. a Washingtonian who, in
addition, to being Kirkpatrick
student in New Haven has spent
the last year doing research in
Paris. is a keyboard artist who
plays the harpsichord like a
master.
After a group of short pieces
by Chambonieres and Couperin.
Mr.. Fuller joined the soprano
Jean Rakes in three sacred pieces
for voice and harpsichord. These
pieces, like the intricate gymnas-
tics of the juggler who humbly
showed off his best tricks in hon.
or of the Lord. are of a charm
and brilliance that in no way
overwhelm their reverence. Miss
RakeS sang easily and very musi-
cally.
La Fontaine, the great French
master of fables. is one of the
few geniuses who has been able
to combine didacticism with
lightness and spirituality. Mr..
Fuller's researches in Paris un-
earthed a number of La Fontaine
fables, set for voice and key
board by several anonymous
composers, and arranged by
Louis Nicholas Clerambault. Six
or eight of these pieces, short,
racy and melodic, were novelty
Of considerable delight and popu-
lar appeal. 1t will be surprising
if they do not show up on recital
programs with both frequency
and acclaim.
Domenico Scarlatti's appeal to
Mr.. Fuller antedated the harp
sichordist's apprenticeship un-
der kirkpatrick, the great Scar
latti scholar, but his insight into
the fantastic sonatas of the
Italian genius and his marvellous
technical resources in the rec
reation of the works have Ger
tainly been largely the result of
his work with his teacher. The
greater part of Mr.. Fuller's re-
cital was devoted to Scarlatti

f1cult to exaggerate ones praise
of his playing. 1t was of great
rhythmical Sureness and inten-
sity, and of a melodic beauty
that was evidence that the COM
poser was not far removed from
the grand tradition of Italian

BY the Associated Press

The Economic Outlook, pub
lication of the CIO. said yester-
day the rise of the stock market
was due to "the development Of
an unhealthy lack of balance
within the economy of the Ma
ton.
1t said the American economic
system is considerably strong

of 1929, but added that "the
serious lack of economic balance
during the 192Os bears an un-
fortunate resemblance to num-
ber of recent economic trends. Z"

in the personal income of upper
income groups, while the in

"On this Memorial Day week

and when the Safety Council is
urging people to drive safely,
George Gobel at the end of his
show last night told people they
could buy happiness. He advised
them to go out then or today and
buy a fifth. It seems to us that
such advice at a time like this
is worthy of an apology to the

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL) The
disqualification Of Fred Dwyer for
allegedly fouling Yves Santee dur
ing the NYAC meet at Madison
Square Garden two weeks ago, is
still quite a subject for discussion,
particularly among old timers who
remember the all-too-human tend
ency for spectators and time
keepers alike to favor the favorite
in a close race.
1t reminds me of the time back
in 1916 when I came down to run
in the Millrose games, competing
against Bob Simpson of Missouri
and Charlie Erdnfan of Princeton.
Everybody had thought. of me as
being strictly a football man and
they thought l just threw in track
for variety. But I actually had my
moments on the oinder paths and
one such moment came during this
particular meet.
i got to the finals and was racing
for the tape, and in fact reached
the tape first. I caught it and it
brushed against my face, leaving
a friction burn which left a scar
that is still visible. I went to my
dressing room thinking I had won
and was all prepared to come back
up and receive my gold medal.
But when the awards were made,
Simpson was placed first and Erd-
man second. 1t was close, to be
sure, and since it was, it went to
the favorite Eriman, however, re-
fused to accept his second place
award.
In reniniscing with some other
performers of years past, 1 have
heard similar statements made.
Eulace Peacock said it happened
to him once when he was Judged
first in a close race, but never re-
menrbered actually breaking the
tape.
Much Of this has been taken care
OF in some sports by photo, but
whenever human judgment must
he relied upon, there must be mar
gin for error.

NEW YORK (GLOBAL)--
Dear Miss Ball:
There is a member of our club
who. is a good worker, but insists
upon having everything her way
and she does not trust anyone. We
like her very much and she is Won
derful until it comes to these
things. The last act in connection
with our Christmas dance almost
broke up the club. We had organ
lied our committees and she was
the dance chairman. She would
call up, say Sarah, and ask her to
check on Marthy and end by say
ing, Martha told me she had
made the arrangements but I'm not
sure. You find out for me-" She
made the arrangements for the
dance hall with the manager and
then, in an attempt to double
check, requested me to call him
as if 1 were making arrangements
for another clubs dance. I would
not do it. Would you?
Alicia-Phoenix, Arizona
Dear Alicia:
Your friend needs to be steered
onto the right track. Somewhere
along the way, she may have had
an unpleasant experience and so,
does not trust people now. How
ever, one experience should never
influence ones entire life in this
manner. Trusting no one is very
bad, for life necessitates our trust
ing and cooperating with others.
Did you ever stop to think just
how much of ones life is really
dependent upon cooperation, faith
and trust in other human beings
even strangers? When things get
to the point where we cannot trust
our friends, then our affairs are
really in a bad state.
Your friend needs someone to
help her learn trust. She should be
told how the others feel about her
actions Point out to her that 9TH
ers have carried their end of the
responsibilities in the past and will
do so again, since you are all CO.
operating and have a mutual in
terest. If push comes to shove"
then you will have to give her
some of her own medicine, which
is frequently a successful remedy.
1T is too bad, but many adults
grow up without learning how to
work with others pleasantly. Try
to teach your friend to share, to
cooperate, to compromise. 1t will
be worth your while.
